CHAGA FACTS

The first mention of Pure Maine Chaga comes from Russian texts of the sixteenth century.

Chaga was traditionally used to treat gastric ulcers and gastritis.

A tea was made of chaga to treat intestinal pain and upset stomach.

Chaga was and still is especially popular for hunters and forest workers because it relieves hunger and increases energy.

Infusions made of chaga have been used for a long time to treat various skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

The Khanty people of Siberia are among the first known to use Chaga medicinally.

In addition to preparing a chaga tea, the Khanty also produced "soap water" by burning the chaga in a fire and then adding it to hot water. This "soapy water" was used for its disinfectant capacity.
