Chaga is a slow-growing tree fungus found in cold climates around the world.
It is thought to be one of the best immunomodulators in the natural world. It has a long history of
use as medicine, has been the subject of dozens of clinical trials, and is the source product for over 40
cancer medications. It can be consumed in capsules, as a strong tea, or in tincture form.
Herbalists often use chaga for heart disease, high cholesterol, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and
atherosclerosis. This fungus contains an array of antioxidant, immune-boosting, anti-inflammatory,
and adaptogenic compounds that give it a long list of potential uses.
