Dried Chaga Mushroom Powder

Product Information

Strain	Chaga (Inonotus obliquus)
Description	Chaga is not the fruiting body of the fungus, but a sclerotium or mass of mycelium, mostly black because of the presence of massive amounts of melanin. The inside of the conk is orange and relatively soft. It is typically parasitic, though rare, on birch trees. Some people consider chaga to be medicinal. Chaga is traditionally grated into a fine powder and used to brew a beverage resembling coffee or tea. However, caution is warranted with chronic use due to the extremely high concentrations of oxalates in chaga.
Extraction method	Hot water extraction, alcohol extraction, and fermentation.
