Chaga - Inonotus Obliquus
Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is a detoxifying mushroom that contains strong antimicrobial, antiviral and immune-boosting properties, according to research.
Recently, a clinical study about Chaga sparked great interest due to its mention of turpenoids potentially interfering with the COVID 19 virus as a treatment in preliminary studies. The mushroom is extremely anti-oxidative.
Chaga primarily grows on birch trees and in cold climates. The exterior layer of Chaga looks like a clump of burnt charcoal, but the inside is soft and has an orange color.
