Chaga Extract

Chaga Extract is a Powerful Healing Substance

Chaga extract is a potent substance that is derived from Chaga mushroom. This mushroom isknown as “King of Herbs” because it has more medicinal powers than other type of mushroom.

It is different from the ordinary mushroom because instead of gills, it has pores. This mushroom grows in the Siberian Mountains, where the climate is very inhospitable. This extreme climate condition is one of the reasons why this mushroom contains so many powerful substances.

The extract from Chaga mushroom comes in liquid, granular powder and capsule forms. The color of all these extracts is brown. The liquid extract is soluble in water, has a coffee-like taste, is odorless and can be mixed with water, coffee, tea, soup or juice. The powder form can be mixed in the same manner.

Since Chaga extract is sourced from this mushroom, it has many medicinal uses as well. The best extracts are those which are derived from mushrooms that grow in the birch forests of Siberia. These extracts are usually made not just from the body of the mushroom, but also its mycella. There are more medically active protein compounds in the mycella of the mushroom than in its body.

How Chaga Extract is Made
The best chaga extract is derived from the premium grade Siberian Chaga mushrooms grown and harvested in Western Siberian. Suppliers of Chaga extract usually utilize the same extraction process. 

To ensure the preservation of the potency of Chaga’s chemical compounds, a low pressure aqueous extraction process is utilized. A special type of water, called energized Pi-water, is used in the extraction process. This type of water has the same energy and fulfills the same function as your body water. It is very suitable for preserving the antioxidant value of the Chaga extract from the initial bottling process until it is consumed by the user. To facilitate cell absorption of the antioxidant substances of the extract, other mineral compounds are added to the formula.   

After the aqueous extraction, the sublimation phase or infrared drying process follows to produce the extract in powder form. The sublimation process is believed to ensure the preservation of the active compounds of Chaga.
