Chaga mushrooms (inonotus obliquus) grow on several species of trees, most notably birch trees. The growth resembles burnt charcoal and gets its dark black appearance from high levels of melanin. Parts of Northern Europe, Russia, and Siberia have used Chaga mushrooms for centuries as a traditional remedy to improve overall health and boost the immune system. In addition to their potential immune-boosting properties, Chaga mushrooms have few calories, high amounts of fiber, and high levels of antioxidants.
Individuals interested in supplementing with Chaga mushroom most often turn to powdered extracts for ease of use. Chaga Mushroom Extract 4:1 is a concentrated supplement form of Chaga mushrooms. Individuals can also use Chaga mushroom extract to brew Chaga tea.
Researchers have found several promising Chaga uses to improve health. Some of the most popular Chaga uses include:
Most individuals tolerate Chaga mushroom extract well. However, individuals taking insulin should consult with their physician before taking Chaga, as it may affect blood sugar. Individuals on blood thinners should also discuss Chaga mushroom extract with their doctor, as Chaga may affect blood clotting. Immunocompromised individuals should meet with their care provider before supplementing with Chaga mushroom extract, as it may affect the immune system.
To make Chaga tea, individuals should use a level 1/4 teaspoon of Chaga mushroom powder for every 8oz of water. Individuals should add the Chaga mushroom powder to a tea bag or tea ball infuser and steep for 10-15 minutes in heated water before removing the Chaga. Avoid pouring boiling water over Chaga mushroom tea, as it may destroy its antioxidant properties. Chaga tea has a mild earthy taste.
