Organic Chaga mushroom with turmeric, ginger & black pepper
Mushrooms for Life blends Organic Chaga with turmeric, ginger, and black pepper for a warming and revitalising latte
Skin Health
Studies show chaga has the strongest antioxidant activity among fungi examined. Antioxidants protect the body from free-radical damage which can cause premature ageing. Other studies have noted benefits for problem skin conditions such as psoriasis, potentially due to its impact on chronic inflammation.
Immunity
Studies have shown anti-viral effects and suggest chaga increases cytokines, which are signalling proteins that help control inflammation, communicate with white blood cells, and help regulate immune response.
Gut Health
A 2017 study found that the polysaccharides in Chaga possess prebiotic properties that improve the balance of healthy bacteria in the gut.
Chaga is an all-round protector with its high concentration of active compounds such as betulinic acid. Turmeric is prized by Eastern cultures and revered for its many benefits. Ginger has been used for thousands of years for its warming and soothing properties. Black Pepper supports the uptake of key compounds and has a sharp, spicy flavour
Active Ingredients
Betulinic acid
Derived from the bark of the host birch tree on which it grows, it has wide-spectrum anti-microbial activity.
Beta-glucans
Rich in beta-glucans and other polysaccharides which balance the response of the immune system.
Antioxidants
Rich in a range of antioxidants, including super-oxide dismutase (SOD); an enzyme which reduces damage done by super-oxide, which is the most common free radical in the body. Chaga has one of highest ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbent Capacity) scores of any food, highlighting its ability to protect the body from free radical damage.
