It is also known for its ability to boost digestion and clear skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eChaga or Inonotus obliquus, commonly called mushroom, is actually a highly prized sclerotium or woody cancer that grows in the colder regions of the Northern Hemisphere on birch trees. Early medicinal uses seem to have come out of Russia around the 16th century when it was used as a tea to treat stomach ailments*. After 1966, Chaga gained visibility after its healing powers were written about in Alexandre Solzhenitsyn's book, Cancer Ward. As Chaga grows primarily on birch trees and a large part of the sclerotium itself is actually wood fibre and not mycelium, many medicinal compounds from the birch such as betuline and betulinic acid are found in the sclerotic. The black outer layer of the cancer contains large amounts of melanin which can be beneficial for our skin*.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUntil recently, Chaga could not be cultivated, but now in Finland, they inoculate birch trees with this fungus. Lab grown Chaga does not develop into a sclerotium and as it does not grow on birch but on grain, it does not contain the important medicinal compounds that come from the birch. Real Mushroom Siberian Chaga Extract is wild harvested in Russia and third-party tested for active compounds beta-D-glucans which are the quintessential nutrients for the immune system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unytii - Suppléments et Produits Naturels","offers":[{"title":"60g","offer_id":45076204355637,"sku":"extrait-de-chaga-poudre-60g","price":48.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/4865\/3365\/files\/MBB_P_F_00007_3000x_1100x_bc3f9e7f-933d-4b2d-a633-a09de3f0258e.webp?v=1783710960","url":"https:\/\/www.ocanova.ca\/products\/extrait-de-chaga-poudre","provider":"Ocanova","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
