Despite the fact that over the past 150 years, artificially synthesized medicines are used as therapeutic agents, interest in herbal medicine not only does not fade away but even intensifies. A striking representative of traditional medicine, historically used by our ancestors for the treatment of various diseases, is the Chaga mushroom. Modern research into this popular product is rediscovering its powerful therapeutic effects for us.
What is Chaga Mushroom?
Chaga, the black birch mushroom, is a sterile form of the Inonotus obliquus (a fungus in the family Hymenochaetaceae), that is parasitic on birch and other trees. It easily survives in extreme climatic conditions. Chaga mushroom is an old folk remedy that has long been used by the population of the northwestern part of Europe, Siberia, Korea, and also Canada for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, inflammatory processes, and other diseases.
Benefits of Chaga Mushroom
Chaga birch mushroom has a restorative, antispasmodic, diuretic, analgesic, antimicrobial, reparative, tonic, laxative effect. It normalizes the activity of the gastrointestinal tract and regulates metabolic processes.
When used wisely, Chaga mushroom is invaluable for the body. In folk medicine, it is used to treat certain types of gastritis, and also as a symptomatic agent that in some cases improves the well-being of patients suffering from malignant tumors.
Semi-thick Chaga extract is the main component of the Befungin preparation for enhancing immunity and treating gastritis, stomach, and duodenal ulcers.
