USDA&EUオーガニック野生チャーガキノコエキスパウダー

The Chaga mushroom, commonly referred to as the “mushroom of inner health”, has been used as a folk remedy for cancer, digestive system diseases and tuberculosis in Russia and western Siberia. It contains the scientifically verified bioactive compounds with important roles in antioxidant, blood lipids & sugar regulation and the improvement of wellness.

The antioxidant activity of polysaccharides (beta-glucans) contained in chaga help maintain cell integrity and fight free radicals. Chaga is used in traditional Russian Folk Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine to support gastrointestinal health, and as a tonic to support overall health.*

Chaga is a fungus, a parasitic carpophore that looks like the charred remains of burned wood on the side of a birch tree (sometimes growing on Elm and Alder, but Birch is its favorite). It is not the fruiting body of the fungus, but a sclerotia or mass of mycelium. The parasite enters the tree through a ‘wound’ in the bark of a mature tree. It then grows under the bark until it erupts in a deeply cracked, black charcoal like extension. It usually takes another 5-7 years for it to fully mature, at which point it falls to the forest floor, most times killing the host tree in the process. Chaga has been a part of folk medicine in Russia, Poland, China and numerous Baltic countries for many centuries. It was documented by Chinese herbalist Shen Nong in his herbal texts as early as the first century B.C.E.

Chaga supports immune health to help you stay feeling your best and supports the body’s immune defenses to stay feeling healthy.*
