ENRICHD Wildcrafted Chaga is handpicked and harvested from the pristine forests of Siberia or upstate New York depending on the season and availability. Renowned as the ‘King of Mushrooms’ we invite you to enjoy one of nature's most powerful superfoods!
North American Chaga is our choice of Autumn and Winter tea for supporting the immune system.
Our Wild Chaga is of exceptional quality and highly ethical sourcing practices, hence the reason we are offering this to you! We love it!
CHAGA CHUNKS DIRECTIONS
Add 2 or 3 chaga chunks to a clean pan or glass kettle, simmer the chaga for 15 minutes or more until the tea is a deep brown colour. The chaga can then be simmered again the next day or later that day. Important note: If you keep your chaga to use numerous times then make sure you store it fully submerged in water.
You can use the same chaga chunks a few times, cutting them with in half every few times your simmer them.
(When I feel that the chunks have been well and truly simmered of all they have to give I add more chunks to the pot (leaving the old ones in) and continue. Once the packet is finished I put all of them in a blender and then soak them in alcohol to extract other beneficial properties of the mushroom, which is a rewarding process in itself).
WHAT'S IN THE BAG...
100% Wildcrafted Chaga Mushroom Chunks. That’s it!
CHUNKS OR EXTRACT POWDER?
Choose the chunks to enjoy the ritual of making the tea which can be re-heated many times. The cool chaga tea can even be enjoyed as a base to your smoothie. Choose the extract powder for more convenience and the dual extract - you can add it to hot water and drink up OR, add it to your smoothie.

We invite you to tune into how you feel when you drink this, really notice what changes are going on for you!
CHAGA THE ADAPTOGEN
As an adaptogen, chaga is the ideal supplement, stimulating the body's immune system and ability to heal itself. It is used as a tonic, so it may be consumed daily.
One should be aware of taking chaga in conjunction with immune-suppressing medicines, the effects of which chaga may negate. Additionally, consuming chaga mushrooms in combination with blood-thinning medications may magnify their effects.
Chaga may also interact with diabetes medications, which may cause blood sugar levels to fall too low.

FAQs
Chaga has been used traditionally for centuries, particularly in Russian and Northern European folk medicine. Here are some potential benefits of Chaga:
- Antioxidant Properties: Chaga is rich in antioxidants, which can help combat oxidative stress and may reduce the risk of diseases associated with oxidative damage.
- Immune System Support: Traditional users often turn to Chaga for its potential immune-boosting properties. Some compounds in Chaga, like beta-D-glucans, are believed to stimulate the immune system.
- Anti-inflammatory: Chaga might have anti-inflammatory effects, which can be beneficial in managing conditions characterized by inflammation.
- Antiviral: Preliminary studies have suggested that Chaga may have antiviral properties against some viruses.
- Supporting Gut Health: Some believe that Chaga can be beneficial for the gut, potentially helping with various digestive issues.
- Anti-Cancer Properties: In vitro (test tube) and animal studies have suggested that Chaga might inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells. However, more research, especially in humans, is needed.
- Lowering Blood Sugar: There's some evidence from animal studies that Chaga might help in reducing blood sugar levels, which could be beneficial for people with diabetes. However, human studies are required to confirm this potential benefit.
- Cholesterol Reduction: Animal studies have shown that Chaga can influence cholesterol metabolism, potentially leading to reduced levels of LDL ("bad") cholesterol.
- Supporting Liver Health: Preliminary research indicates that Chaga may provide protection against liver damage in animals.
- Skin Health: Due to its antioxidant properties, some suggest that Chaga might help maintain skin health, though direct evidence is limited.

One should be aware of taking Chaga in conjunction with immune suppressing medicines, the effects of which Chaga may negate. Additionally, consuming Chaga mushroom in combination with blood-thinning medications may magnify their effects.
