MEDICINAL BENEFITS OF THE CHAGA MUSHROOM

MEDICINAL BENEFITS OF THE CHAGA MUSHROOM

The chaga mushroom (technically not a mushroom, but rather a pre-growth) is an incredibly powerful medicinal mushroom that is highly sought after for its medicinal properties and extremely high antioxidant content. Chaga is rich in vitamins A, C, B, D and E and minerals such as manganese, iron, calcium, zinc and selenium. It has powerful antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal, anti-candida and anti-parasitic properties.

The medicinal chaga mushroom is one of the best sources of betulinic acid, which is known to kill cancer cells on contact. Because of this, the chaga mushroom is often cited as one of the best anti-cancer and anti-tumor foods and is highly valued and used in various natural cancer treatment and prevention protocols. Research shows that chaga is particularly beneficial for colon, stomach, uterine, lung, breast, and prostate cancer.

Chaga is also rich in beta-glucans, which can significantly strengthen and strengthen the immune system. This makes it an ideal choice for sufferers of autoimmune diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn's disease, lymphoma, bursitis, herpes zoster and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

This mushroom is also very beneficial for people with the HIV virus (human immunodeficiency virus) and has been shown to reduce various symptoms and secondary diseases caused by HIV. Chaga contains the highest level of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the world. It is an enzyme that helps break down free radicals and has proven its effectiveness in the treatment of Parkinson's disease , Alzheimer's disease, ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), gout, scleroderma, osteoarthritis and cataracts.

Its anti-inflammatory properties make it an ideal helper for people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), arthritis, colitis, cystitis, tendinitis, edema, asthma, celiac disease and acne. The wide range of medicinal benefits found in chaga makes it one of the most important and essential medicinal foods that should be included in everyone's health regime.

Chaga mushrooms grow in harmony with birch trees and can be found in the northern regions of the United States and in the forests of the Appalachian Mountains. They are also found in the temperate forests of Europe, Canada, China, Russia and Korea, where they are called a "gift from God".

Chaga mushroom to boost immunity

The chaga mushroom is associated with building immunity, something we all need in our lives. Chaga has nutrients that strengthen the immune system and increase the number of white blood cells by increasing the production of lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, basophils and eosinophils so that your body can fight invaders such as toxins and pathogens, as well as fungi such as yeasts and molds.

This amazing wild food also supports normal red blood cell levels and bone mass, balances platelets, and prevents cytokine storms that result from the body's overreaction to a pathogen or toxin. This type of overreaction occurs because the immune system goes into overdrive to fight multiple infections. Cytokine storms can lead to dilation of blood vessels (which can lead to hemorrhage), hives, rashes, and fever.

With the help of the chaga mushroom, the body is much better prepared to deal with pathogens and toxins. Chaga is one of the most healing and tonic agents used in recent decades. The phytochemicals in chaga are extremely good at preventing cancer, regulating blood sugar, stimulating the adrenal glands while regulating the rest of the endocrine system, breaking down, dissolving and destroying non-productive fungi in the gastrointestinal tract.

There is a popular misconception that edible mushrooms are bad for us because ingesting them leads to fungal overgrowth in the body. This statement could not be further from the truth. Edible mushrooms, including chaga mushrooms, are some of the best fighters and enemies of non-productive fungi that we have.
