<p>Our chaga mushrooms are harvested from the forests of northern Maine in an environmentally sensitive and sustainable way. </p> <p>The chaga mushroom concentrates betulin, a naturally occurring chemical found in birch tree bark, which has been shown to reduce and stabilize the formation of atherosclerotic plaque, among other beneficial effects.</p> <p>To use our dried chaga nuggets, add 1/3 cup of nuggets to 4 cups of water, gently simmer for 2 to 3 hours, partly covered, strain and refrigerate. The nuggets can be frozen after each use and used 3 to 4 more times. The usual daily dose is ½ cup to 1 cup of the tea, which can be diluted, if desired. </p> <p>Each pouch contains four 1/3-cup servings of dried nuggets. If you drank 1/2 cup of tea a day and froze the nuggets four times between uses, the contents of a pouch will last about a month.</p> <p><strong>Ingredients: Wild-harvested chaga mushrooms.
