Hailed as the “King of Medicinal Mushrooms“, Chaga is high in antioxidants and plant compounds that may benefit health, including:
Triterpenoids that can inhibit enzymes involved in glucose metabolism, prevent the development of insulin resistance and normalize plasma glucose and insulin levels.* Polyphenols that can protect the body’s tissues against oxidative stress and associated pathologies such as cancers, coronary heart disease and inflammation.* Polysaccharides that are well known for their high nutritive value and the positive effects on our immune and digestive functions and detoxification system.* Flavanoids that are beneficial phytonutrients with anti-inflammatory effects and they protect your cells from oxidative damage that can lead to disease and antioxidants that may prevent the development of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and cognitive diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia.*
B2B wholesale purchasing options are 100 gram Sample and 1 LB Private Label finished product in a printed pouch or wide mouth PET jar with wrap label. Contact your Account Manager to request a quote if you are seeking an alternate product configuration.

Fighting Inflammation With Chaga Mushroom
High in antioxidants, chaga mushrooms have been found to help fight inflammation. When the body is fighting an illness, inflammation supports the fight. But sometimes, inflammation transitions from a short-term attack to a chronic health problem. Some illnesses, particularly chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, are linked to inflammation. Recent research suggests that some conditions that are not considered inflammatory — including depression — may be partly due to chronic inflammation. Chaga’s role in regulating cytokine production may also help control inflammation.*
Lowering Blood Sugar and Cholesterol
For those with insulin resistance, polycystic ovarian syndrome or Type 2 diabetes, using chaga mushroom may help reduce blood sugar levels and improve insulin resistance. Several studies show the potential — as much as a 31% decrease in blood sugar levels — but more research, especially on humans, is also needed. Chaga mushrooms contain many antioxidants and compounds that may reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the so-called bad cholesterol. High cholesterol is a significant risk factor for heart disease, so chaga mushrooms could be useful to protect against cardiovascular disease.*
Immune System Support
Cytokines are the immune system’s chemical messengers. They are proteins that play a vital role in stimulating white blood cells, which are the immune system’s first line of defense against a range of illnesses. Chaga may help regulate the production of cytokines, supporting the immune system by helping cells communicate with one another. This could help fight infections, from minor colds to life threatening illnesses.*
Fighting and Preventing Cancer
Chaga is rich in antioxidants. These are chemicals that help prevent cell damage caused by free radicals or oxidants. Oxidative stress occurs when the body cannot produce enough antioxidants to prevent this damage. Damage from oxidative stress can contribute to the development of many health conditions, including cancer. Many studies show the potential for chaga mushrooms to slow the growth of cancer cells.*
