Chaga Mushroom

Alternative Name:

Inanotus obliquus

Chaga, a medicinal fungus, has a long history of traditional use. Its origins trace back to the Ural Mountains of Russia, where it primarily grows on birch trees. However, Chaga’s habitat extends beyond this region.

The indigenous Khanty people of Siberia have incorporated Chaga into their rituals and folk medicine practices for centuries. Historical records suggest that Chaga’s use dates back to the 16th century, when it was utilized in Siberia and parts of Asia for its medicinal properties. Its significance in traditional Chinese medicine and among indigenous tribes of Siberia and North America highlights a global appreciation for its healing potential.

The name “Chaga” originates from the Russian word for mushroom, “czaga,” which is derived from the word for fungus.
