Chaga is a superfood packed with nutrients and antioxidants. It can boost immunity, ease chronic inflammation and lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels while slowing the aging process and decreasing cancer risks. Plus it’s filled with minerals, vitamins, phenolic acids and other compounds!

Chaga can be purchased in various forms, from teas and capsules to fresh mushrooms. When purchasing mushroom tea, seek one which utilizes the inner “golden body” of the fungus, which has higher antioxidant capacity than its outer black crust. To brew, mix 1 teaspoon of ground chaga with hot water and let steep for 4 to 6 minutes before straining out before serving.

Capsules are another effective way of using this potency superfood to strengthen your immunity. Aim for products containing beta-glucans as they’re thought to offer many health advantages; Amazon has many chaga capsules but make sure you read each label closely, as some contain synthetic ingredients which could cause negative side effects.

Moon Juice offers an irresistibly delicious Siberian Chaga Mushroom Tea to warm you through those cold winter nights. Packed with adaptogenic Ashwagandha to help balance hormones, this mushroom tea comes as both capsules and tinctures for your convenience.

Mushroom-infused hot drinks have become increasingly popular among US consumers seeking natural ways to reduce caffeine intake. Reishi and lion’s mane mushrooms have been shown to boost energy, support immunity, and more; however, their claims haven’t been evaluated by either CFIA or FDA so before adding these supplements into your diet, please speak with a medical provider beforehand.
