Chaga Mushrooms

For centuries, Chaga mushrooms have been used in Asia and other parts of Europe to boost immunity. Now, it is making it gaining popularity in the Western market thanks to its antioxidants, among other health benefits.

Chaga mushroom is a type of fungus that is traditionally grated into a fine powder and brewed as tea. With an appearance similar to burnt charcoal, Chaga mushrooms grow primarily on birch trees in cold climates like Siberia, Russia, and Korea among others. They are loaded with antioxidants, very high in fiber, and low on calories.

Some studies have pointed out that Chaga mushrooms provide a variety of health benefits.

In fact, research has shown that Chaga mushrooms can prevent inflammation by inhibiting the production of harmful cytokines. Due to this, Chaga acts as a natural pain reliever and anti-inflammatory agent. It has also been found to increase immunity.

Additionally, Chaga mushrooms have been studied to have an anti-cancer effect thanks to their high antioxidant content.

Aside from its anti-cancer potential, Chaga has also properties that can improve heart health. Various studies have observed that Chaga extract reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or bad cholesterol among test subjects thus reducing the risk of heart disease. It has also been found that Chaga extract shows a promising effect of antioxidants in increasing the level of high-density lipoprotein or "good cholesterol."

Chaga mushrooms are currently available in the market, not just only as a tea but also as a supplement in powdered or capsule forms. Improve your heart health by taking Chaga mushroom supplements like the Nutridom Chaga Mushroom Capsule or the Nutridom Chaga Mushroom powder. You should also try Nutridom's Premium Chaga Mushroom which is jampacked with antioxidants.

Before taking any supplements, however, it is always best to consult your health care provider first especially if you are on medication.
