Medicinal Uses: Chaga mushrooms are composed of a dense configuration of antioxidant pigments, distinguishing it from other medicinal mushrooms. Like other super herbs, it helps to reduce the workload of the immune system as a whole. It is particularly helpful and healing for those with heart disease, diabetes, stomach and intestine cancer, liver disease, parasites, stomach pain, and tuberculosis.

The myriad benefits of this alkaline, medicinal tree mushroom can be gained in various forms: drying wild chaga to make teas; eating it fresh, or eating it dried; and make special alcohol and alchemical extracts from it.

In a Russian atlas of medicinal plants, it is recommended as a tea, extract, or nastoika (tincture) for malignancies. Dried wild chaga powder, simply eaten as food, appears to have healing effects on the digestive tract. There are  many unique uses for medicinal mushrooms in all possible forms (hot-water extraction, methanol, ethanol, and freeze-dried mycelium powder, etc.), all validated by scientific literature.

The available information indicates that not only the tea, extract, and alcohol tincture of it have unique and valuable healing properties, but also that chaga mycelium powder (grown on a grain medium, not harvested in the wild) has great healing properties as well.

Contraindications: Chaga tea and chaga mycelium are safe and important health-food products for all ages (1 to 101+ years of age) and all stages of life, including pregnancy. Barring rare tree-mushroom allergies, pregnant women can take chaga tea and chaga mycelium daily during their entire pregnancy. Consuming chaga mushrooms may magnify the effects of anticoagulant medications such as aspirin and warfarin and diabetes medicine.

 

To date, no side effects or toxicity of chaga have been reported.
