Extract powders offer a more bio-available form of mushroom products than the simple powdered mushrooms, which need to be cooked or processed more in order to release the beneficial properties. This chaga extract powder can be added to teas, smoothies, or encapsulated.
Chaga, Inonotus obliquus, is a fungus that grows wild primarily in the forests of Canada, Russia, and northern China where birch trees are prevalent. While commonly referred to as a mushroom, it is, in actuality, a sterile conk or canker. The people of northern Europe and Russia have wildcrafted and utilized chaga for centuries in traditional medicine and for nutritional purposes.
Our one-to-one extract powder starts with wild collected chaga mushrooms that are made into a fine powder. From there, they are extracted in water at 90°-100° C for three hours. When this decoction is complete, the water is evaporated producing a concentrated fluid. With the mushroom powder still in the fluid state it is sent to a spray drier which produces a fine powder. In this process the raw material is never removed from the extraction, meaning that everything from the original mushroom is retained in the final product.
