Instant Chaga is an extract from wild, free-growing Chaga (Chaga spp.) originating from the untouched region of Finnish Lapland. It is still unaffected by toxic pollution, so it offers a literal wealth of nature. Among the greatest treasures is the adaptogenic chaga mushroom, which grows in many areas of the world, with the best characteristics coming from three areas - Altai, the Himalayas and Lapland.

For food, the so-called antioxidant capacity ORAC (oxygen radical absorbent capacity) is measured for an approximate overview. The higher its value, the stronger the food's properties related to oxidative stress. While blackcurrant, for example, has an ORAC value of 7,701, blueberries have an ORAC value of 13,427, chaga has an ORAC value of 146,700.

Wild Chaga Puhdistamo is prepared using a hot water extraction method, which allows the cell barrier of this mushroom to be penetrated and the active ingredients to be obtained. In 2013, Pudhistamo wild chaga won the Finnish Health Food Retailers Association's Supplement of the Year award.

Wild chaga powder can be added to any drink, smoothie, or plain water. This adaptogenic mushroom has been used for hundreds of years in traditional Chinese or Russian medicine, for example. It was also used by the ancient Egyptians and Indians. It has very significant effects related to support during high physical or mental stress, oxidative stress, prevention, and overall support of the body and mind. (See - Adaptogenic mushrooms and plants - the undiscovered power of nature, vol. 1 – Chaga).

Substances contained in the wild Chaga mushroom - original Lappish chaga is characterized by a high content of bioactive adaptogens, essential phospholipids, tripertenoids, ergosterols, essential phospholipids, beta-glucans, bioactive phytosterols, vitamins, organically bound minerals, polysaccharides, betulinic acid, betulin, bioactive flavonoids, pteridine, obliquol and dozens of other important micronutrients. According to traditional Chinese medicine, Chaga supports the so-called qi energy (QI).

Wild chaga from Lapland vs. artificially grown chaga

Wild chaga offers, thanks to its original genotype, natural development and growth (free nature) and the unique climate of Lapland, absolutely above-standard nativity and effect (natural form in full force). This is a real original from a direct Finnish producer (direct source)!  A large portion of products on the current market offer chaga without a clear origin (usually China), or it is so-called laboratory chaga, grown in artificial conditions (cultivation rooms). Natural origin and originality are the most important indicators in this case, because the power of chaga is not only in the polysaccharide content, or in one of the other components extracted through a rough and aggressive extraction. The power lies in the clear and natural origin of the mushroom and its complexity given by Mother Nature!
