From Health Canada’s website:

Oxygen radicals are everywhere because we live in an atmosphere that contains oxygen. Oxidation stress, therefore, is unavoidable – it is a consequence of living. There is an increasing body of evidence that oxidative stress is linked to many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, neurological disorders (ex. Parkinson’s disease), cataracts, and arthritis. One of our strongest defenses is to eat foods containing natural antioxidants. The FDA has also stated that a person should up their levels of antioxidants to over 7000 ORAC value per day to help prevent cell damage, anti-aging, cancer, and other diseases.

Historically, Russians, Chinese, and Siberians are known to use it. Used as anti-tumor and to give the Russian athletes in the Olympics an edge (adaptogenic, meaning it helps athletes recover).

Dr. Cass Ingram states in his book titled The Cure is in the Forest: ” Moreover, despite the Russian use, recent studies demonstrate that Canadian source Chaga is even more potent than the Siberian type.”

Chaga grows in harsh/cold climates where temperatures fluctuate. The different sizes of Chaga mushrooms are harvested on birch trees and when sustainably harvested, some Chaga is left on the tree to grow back. Some experts believe that you do not need to leave any Chaga on the tree because of the network of fungus that remains in the tree whereas the budding black dense Chaga is the fruit. Most mushrooms are the fruit.
