But INTI (1.19g/100ml) surpasses both: less sugar than kombucha + the active gingerols (AMPK, inflammation-mecanisme-cle-gingembre-sucre-explication-2026">NF-κB, Nrf2) that kombucha doesn't have. For probiotics, unpasteurized homemade kombucha has the advantage. For metabolic and anti-inflammatoire-science-utilisation">ginger anti-inflammatory effects: INTI is the optimal choice.
