I don't know exactly, but my impression is that this is only good for people with certain type of constitutions, for example those that can tolerate and feel improvement from drinking vinegar. We tried this for quite a while a number of years ago and didn't feel that there was any benefit for us. Perhaps it provides good benefits for people who are deprived of certain vitamins, etc...
Although it did pique my interest in making wine out of tea (without the vinegar taste though). Just my experience.

Apple cider is along the lines of mother-of-vinegar and is a different species of yeasts and bacteria than kombucha. These are naturally occurring yeasts ands bacteria in apples and do make an excellent health drink but it is not kombucha mushroom tea. for a full analysis of what constitutes kombucha mushroom tea see my site http://www.happyherbalist.com/analysis_of_kombucha.htm as a note many people give kombucha away just like other probiotics (kefir and tibicos) don't be afraid to ask, you may be surprised what your neighbor is doing.
