According to The Korean Nutrition Society:
1) Chaga Increases the defense reactions of an organism
2) Stimulates metabolism in brain tissues
3) Has an anti-inflammatory effect when used internally and externally
4) Is an antioxidant
5) Delays the growth of some kinds of tumors
6) Lowers arterial and venous blood pressure
7) Regulates the heart beat.
8) Decreases sugar level in blood
According to The Russian Medical Academy:
1) Positive effect on lung cancer and liver cancer
2) Calms the nervous system
3) Proven medically, it effects positively various stomach diseases and ulcers
4) Stimulates the immune system
What recent medical research revealed about Chaga's Secrets
Chaga contains an extraordinary amount of phyto-nutrients such as Beta Glucans, Polysaccharides, and other synergistic anti mutagenic and anti viral minerals, amino acids and nucleosides.
John Pezzuto of the University of Chicago is quoted as stating “the activity of the Betulinic acid is one of the most promising discoveries among 2500 plant extracts studied.” The Betulinic acid contained in Chaga covers the full spectrum of immune stimulating effects found in similar medicinal mushrooms such as Maitake and Shiitake mushrooms.
Russian and Japanese medical professionals both contend that Chaga is 100 times more effective than Ganoderma Lucidum or Phellinus Linteus. The International Agriculture Development Institute in Korea confirms such claims.
The Japanese Cancer Society claims Chaga plays an important role in combating cancer. Chaga reinforces the membrane of the cancer cells and prevents them from spreading.
The Gandodelan A-B is responsible for blood sugar maintenance. Chaga activates the immune system and arrests the excess production of allergen. Gandodelan A-B does lower blood sugar content in white mice clinical studies by 60-89% in seven hours.
Chaga contains high levels of Beta Glucan polysaccharides, a proven and potent anti cancer agent. Maitake does as well and many clinical studies attest to its potent anti viral and anti tumor effects. The Beta Glucans are powerful immune boosters, not by killing virus or cancer cells directly, but by stimulating the body’s ability to set up cellular defenses.
Numerous studies also indicate that a 50% reduction in glycemic peaks are achieved due to the Beta Glucan effects on cholesterol levels.
There are over 1600 research papers on Beta Glucan activity including studies from Harvard Medical School, National Cancer Institute, the Department of Agriculture and others. These studies prove Beta Glucan are external immunomodulators that can keep one’s immune system in a highly prepared state, ready for combat against cancer like cells.
