Fear not, Chaga (inonotus obliquus) mushroom is here to reduce inflammation, act as an antiviral, and boost that immune system. This almost burnt looking fungi is the 'right hand' to Lions Mane in our New Aura blend.
Supercharged Benefits
What makes these mushrooms so unique? Chaga has one of the highest ORAC scores of any food! Why does this matter? ORAC stands for "Oxygen Radical Absorbent Capacity." The higher the ORAC value, the better a food's ability to protect the body from disease-causing free radicals proving it to be an excellent antiviral and source of antioxidants. Creating a jumpstart to the immune system by increasing the production of specific immune cells, including interleukin 6 (IL-6) as well as T lymphocytes. This helps regulate the immune system and makes sure that your body is fighting off any invading bacteria and viruses.
Chronic inflammation has been the root cause of diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, asthma, and even Alzheimer's. Not all inflammation is harmful, and not all are chronic. When inflammation is acute, it's just the body's natural defense mechanism against damaged cells, viruses, etc. Acute inflammation's overall goal is to heal the body. Chaga can reduce inflammation. For example, an animal study has shown that Chaga extract can reduce inflammation due to ulcerative colitis in animal subjects. Researchers found that the anti-inflammatory effect of the extract in the colon was due to its ability to suppress the expression of chemical mediators of inflammation.
Traditional Uses
The name "chaga" comes from the Russian for mushrooms. They've also been called "black gold." Siberian Russian Shamans called it "The Mushroom of Immortality," and the Japanese refer to it as "Diamond of the Forest." Chaga is known as one of the most potent antioxidants in the world. Known to harness the power of ancient trees like the Birch, this fungus draws its nutrients from deep within the bark. Spanning millennia, Chaga has been used to balance the body's life force or "Chi" energy, while boosting the immune system.
