Chaga Tincture

Chaga is best taken first thing in the morning with Lion’s mane to benefit from its “life-force giving” potential. Chaga can be taken any time of the day really, it can also be effective after intense physical activities to help with recovery by reducing inflammation and supporting the endocrine system. A little bit of Chaga in your evening tea is never a bad idea and why not combine it with Reishi while you’re at it! “More mushrooms, less problems”

We do however recommend that you take a break from Chaga every now and then. This is because of the soluble oxalates in Chaga (and some other mushrooms like oyster varieties and dark leafy green vegetables) that may accumulate when consuming large quantities for extended periods, although there are no reports or studies that links the long term use of Chaga to kidney stones. This can also easily be countered by consuming calcium rich foods to limit the absorption of soluble oxalates if you need to continue using Chaga for a specific treatment protocol.
