Wildcrafted Chaga Mushroom Powder. Sustainably harvested from birch trees in Canada.
Chaga mushroom is a legendary tonic food. It has been acknowledged in traditional medicine and in modern scientific studies to have magnificent healing properties. Historically, Chaga mushroom has been known as the "King of Plants" in China, "Diamond of the Forest" in Japan and is the cornerstone of the Siberian shamanic healing tradition.
Chaga is particularly special in that it grows on living Birch trees taking 15-20 years to reach maturity. Over this time it concentrates many important nutrients and enzymes from the tree and brings them into a form we can consume to support our bodies health. Also on a higher level it's growth on living trees brings a spiritual element which Chinese tradition describes as Shen.
Chaga has high levels of B-Vitamins, flavonoids, enzymes, minerals and phenols and contains some of the highest known concentrations of antioxidants of any food. Chaga mushroom contains extremely powerful antioxidants such as Melanin, a pigment necessary for the health of the human body. In fact Chaga mushroom is the richest natural source of Melanin known to man.
