Wild, Chaga Mushroom... Secret of the Forest
Chaga is a wild growth of immense powers. Everyone needs more power, so everyone benefits from chaga. Real chaga is truly wild. It grows in the far northern forests, where the ecosystem is intact. This is crucial, because there is a vast difference between wild plants which grow in pure nature and farm-raised plants. Chaga thrives in the remote wilderness, growing on wild birch trees. It consumes and then concentrates the natural power of these trees. A polypore fungus taking up to twenty years to mature, chaga is a true force of wild nature. There is now man-made chaga grown in vats and labs. Do not accept cheap imitations.
"Gift from God"
Rather than soft like a mushroom, chaga is hard, almost as hard as wood. It is unique, nothing like common mushrooms. In fact, chaga is the most nutritionally dense of all tree growths. Known by the Siberians as the "Gift from God" and the "Mushroom of Immortality" this vibrant growth has been used by humans to support health for thousands of years. The Japanese call it "The Diamond of the Forest," while the Chinese deem it "King of Plants." For the Chinese that is saying a lot, since they have an immense history with countless plants. Now, you can get the great powerful secret of the Orient through North American Herb & Spice's wild chaga supplements. Despite this exceptional status, most Americans are unaware of it. To survive in harsh climates, chaga concentrates natural compounds for its protection, and that is why it is so powerful. It makes potent phytochemicals, including sterols, phenols, and enzymes. Chaga is part of the tree's immune system. Researchers have successfully inoculated trees with chaga.
Nutrient Dense
Chaga is powerful, because it contains the nutrients - the biological force - of actual trees. Because of their exceptionally potent substances, trees live long, far longer than herbs. Some trees live as long as 10.000 years or more. Thus, they are the most powerful living beings in the world. Concentrating this power, chaga contains numerous B vitamins, phenols, minerals, and enzymes. It is also one of the world's densest sources of pantothenic acid, and this vitamin is needed by the adrenal glands as well as digestive organs. It also contains riboflavin and niacin in significant amounts. Chaga is highly rich in special phenols which are pigment-like. These phenolic compounds are known as chromogenic complex. Chaga can be up to 30% chromogenic complex by weight. Found only in chaga the chromogenic complex protects all tissues. In the cream base this chromogenic complex nourishes and beautifies the skin, even improving skin color, since it contains natural melanin.
Chaga contains wild-source minerals and is particularly high in copper, calcium, potassium, manganese, zinc, and iron. Yet, its most potent ingredient is a special substance known as superoxide dismutase (SOD). This enzyme halts oxidation, especially blocking the toxicity of a free radical known as singlet oxygen. This oxygen causes aging and organ damage - like a nail rusting in air. SOD blocks this damage by quenching the singlet oxygen free radical. The SOD content per gram of chaga is exceedingly high and accounts for many of its historical powers. Tests performed on North American Herb & Spice's wild chaga prove that it contains some 10.000 to 20.000 active SOD units per gram. This is an exceedingly high amount, far higher than that found even in typical SOD pills. Plus, the type in pills is virtually impossible to absorb, while the wild chaga type is well-utilized by the body.
Wild chaga was found to be the most powerful adaptogen
Since the 1950s the government of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), in conjunction with approximately 1.200 prominent scientists, conducted over 3.000 experiments involving 500.000 people to study the effects of adaptogens. An adaptogen is a substance which modifies the human body's response to stress. The results of these studies were a protected Soviet secret for 40 years. The Soviet government commanded athletes, astronauts and other Soviet elite to take adaptogens on a daily basis to improve physical and mental work capacity. One of these adaptogens was chaga. In fact, of all these adaptogens, chaga was found to be the most powerful. It is now believed that up to 80% of all diseases are mainly due to stress.
