Chaga is a medicinal
mushroom that has strong immune enhancing properties, high levels of
antioxidants, and exhibits anti-viral properties. It is an amazing
health and longevity tonic full of phyto-nutrients that slow the aging
process.
Chaga mushroom has been a
component of Russian folk medicine since the 16th century. It was
traditionally used to treat stomach and lung cancers and for other
ailments including but not limited to gastritis, ulcers, colitis, and
various other inflammatory conditions.
The active ingredients in
Chaga have been identified to be sterols, triterpenes, saponins, and
polysaccharides. Of the triterpene group, inotodiol seems to be the
most active. Another component found in Chaga is Betulin which is
absorbs and concentrates from the birch trees that it is commonly found
to grow on. Betulin can easily be converted to Betulinic acid which has
been shown to possess a wide spectrum of biological activities.
Japanese research has also
shown that Chaga demonstrates anti-viral activity and may be beneficial
against HIV replication.
Chaga mushroom has marked
immuno-stimulatory activity and should be considered by anyone seeking
super immunity and longevity.
