There is a harmful rumor out there that suggests mushrooms and other fungi are harmful. People fear that ingesting fungus will result in the overgrowth of fungus within the body. This is simply not true. In fact, mushrooms are some of the most powerful unproductive fungus fighters we have.
What Is Chaga?
While many people classify chaga as a mushroom, it is technically a pre-mushroom growth. Chaga is a wild food that has numerous health benefits.

“Chaga lives in harmony with the trees it grows on. Once it takes up residence on a tree, it grows very slowly so as not to disrupt the host. Chaga offers strength to its tree during times of storm and deep freeze, because it provides a living frequency of loyalty. Chaga possesses patience and intelligence of survival, knowing that if its host tree goes down, it goes down too. We can all learn about loyalty from this wild food.”
