Chaga useful properties

Chaga is a fruit body of a perennial fungus parasitizing on the trunks of adult birches( less often on aspens and ashberries).In appearance, these are large, black, heavy, oval or rounded growths up to 40-50 cm in diameter, 3-5 kg in weight. The inner part of the fruit body is very hard, from yellow-brown to dark-brown in color.

Most often, chaga is found on birches, which is why they call it birch fungus, but it can also learn other deciduous trees, such as alder, maple, mountain ash, elm or beech. Immediately it is worth noting that the exceptional healing abilities of this fungus are manifested only in conjunction with the birch. Craggy growths, found on trees of other species, do not possess any medicinal properties.

Growing chaga slowly to achieve a medium size, the fungus is required for 10 years, no less, although there are also specimens-long-livers of 20 or more years old.

Procurement

Similar to the chaga, false and real tinderboxes, also growing on a birch tree, can not be prepared.

Birch mushroom can be harvested all year round, regardless of the season. At first glance, this is true, because the chaga is a long-growing mushroom and well protected from all kinds of external weather influences. But people's experience suggests that it is best to harvest the spring and autumn mushroom, say, the most amount of nutrients accumulates in it during the spring sap flow and autumn preparation for the harsh winter weekdays. At least, it was at this time that it was decided to collect it among folk healers.

There are other features regarding the collection of chaga. So, for example, you can not collect a birch mushroom from dry trees, the fact is that as soon as the tree dies, the chimneys on it begin to die, giving way to another form of this fungus - fruit. Also, you should not collect chaga from the ground itself - as a rule, there are old, collapsing outgrowths. To distinguish such unusable as medicinal growths simply - they are more friable, crumbling and black throughout their thickness. There are other subtleties that must be considered when collecting chaga.

Old, crumbling growths and outgrowths are not suitable as a medicine, completely black inside.
It is most convenient to cut it off vertically, near the trunk itself, parallel to it.
It's best to collect the chaga on the waning moon.

Knock out growths with axes or hammers from trunks on felling areas, separate wood and bark, as well as loose and light brown parts. Large growths are cut with an ax to pieces. You should not collect fruit bodies from the dried trees and in the lower part of the trunks, since such raw materials are inactive. Dry in ovens or dryers at a temperature of no higher than 60 ° C, laying on sieves. The smell of dry raw materials is absent. The taste is bitter. Shelf life 4-6 months, according to other information - 2 years. Collect only from birch trunks.

Treatment of

After the chagal growths are separated from the trunk, they should be treated in a certain way. The fact is that not all parts of the birch fungus are equally suitable as a medicinal product. And if there are a lot of useful substances in one part of the mushroom, then in others there is practically none at all. How can this be determined? It turns out that the least benefit is the light and loose part of the fungus adjacent to the trunk. Here, from it, as well as from all kinds of chips and pieces of birch bark, you should get rid of it right on the spot, in the forest.

Leave only the hard parts of the fungus - the outer and the middle. It is best to cut the collected raw materials into small pieces right next to the tree.

Next, fresh chaga should be dried, but there are also certain subtleties. The fact that the fresh chaga mushroom is easily exposed to mold, so it can not be dried in a place that is too moist, cold or poorly ventilated. But also to send for quick drying in a hot oven, chaga is also in no case impossible, otherwise most of the biologically active substances will be lost. Therefore, you need to find the golden mean - choose a dry, warm and well-ventilated place. In this case, fresh chaga should be cut into pieces not more than 3-6 cm and dried until the pieces become solid and crumbling. A well-dried birch mushroom should be folded into glass jars with tightly closing lids, and it can also be packaged in sealed paper or linen bags. The properly collected, prepared and stored mushroom retains all its healing properties for 2 years.

The chemical composition of the birch mushroom has been little studied. The active principles are apparently water-extractable dark-colored pigment substances( chromogens), in the hydrolysis of which aromatic hydroxy acids are obtained. In addition, the fungus contains agaricic acid, triterpenoid, inoiodiol, flavonoid, a small amount of alkaloids, and also resins, from which crystalline matter and ash elements( 18%), especially potassium, sodium, a relatively large amount of manganese and other substances, are isolated.

In birch mushroom chaga( Inonotus obliquus) contain:
• 6-8% of polysaccharides;
• up to 60% of agaricic and humic-like chalic acids;
• 0,5-1,3% of organic acids( oxalic, acetic, formic, vanillic, lilac, loxibenzoic, inonotovaja and obiklinovaja);
• pterins( pteridin derivatives), the presence of which is responsible for the cytostatic effect of chaga;
• lipids( di- and triglycerides);
• sterols, in particular - ergosterol;
• lignin;
• tetracyclic triterpenes - lanosterol and inotodiol, exhibiting antiblastic activity;
• fiber;
• flavonoids;
• ash( 12.3%), rich in manganese, which is an activator of enzymes;
• microelements: copper, barium, zinc, iron, silicon, aluminum, calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium.

Any medicinal products based on chaga are the most powerful biogenic stimulants. This should be remembered and treated with chaga with a certain degree of caution, before taking chagi preparations, be sure to consult a doctor!

In addition, it must be remembered that under the influence of high temperatures, most of these beneficial properties of the fungus are lost, so if you use chaga as a biogenic stimulant, do not cook it and boil it with boiling water! Remember that 90-95 ° C is the maximum permissible temperature for birch fungus preparations. Although in some cases, chaga should be filled with boiling water or even cook a decoction out of it. This is done when it is required to completely extract other useful substances contained in the fungus.

For a long time, researchers have been arguing whether the birch mushroom helps the chaga to get rid of tumors and whether it helps to restrain tumor growth. On the one hand, folk medicine has long recognized the antitumor effect of chaga and considered birch fungus a popular means for the treatment of cancer, on the other hand, a number of contradictory conclusions have been made in a number of studies by official medicine. As a result, on the basis of clinical study of chaga preparations, scientists have come to the conclusion that chaga, although it does not relieve the tumor and does not have a direct anti-cancer effect, in some cases helps cancer patients in the fight against cancer.
The whole point is that, without struggling on their own with the tumor, the biologically active preparations of Chaga correlate all the internal forces of the body to fight the disease, thereby increasing the likelihood of recovery. That is, if as an independent single drug in the treatment of cancer, chaga can not be used, then as an auxiliary tool birch mushroom chaga is very, very effective.
Preparations of chaga under the guidance of physicians are recommended to include in the schemes of complex therapy of medicinal and therapeutic and preventive agents of natural origin, especially considering their low toxicity and greater effectiveness of exposure.

What helps the birch mushroom chaga here? As it turned out, he:
exhibits pronounced antioxidant and antitoxic properties, thereby contributing to an increase in the body's defenses;
removes from the body any toxins and heavy metals, thereby contributing to the weakening of intoxications caused by tumors and chemotherapy;
quickly removes pain syndrome and has a positive effect on the nervous system;
normalizes the metabolism;
has an anti-inflammatory, immunomodulating and antispasmodic effect;
enhances the activity of antitumor drugs.
Thus, chaga preparations, when used in complex treatment of cancer, not only reduce pain and improve the overall well-being of patients, but also have a certain therapeutic effect.
The main tool for using chaga in the treatment of cancer is the basic infusion, the recipe of which is given above.
In this case, taking into account the location of the tumor, in parallel with infusion, enemas, micronized, inhalation, compresses and rinses are used. Also, ointments and alcohol tinctures are sometimes prepared. Effective effect has also the drug "Beefungin".
There are two methods of using chagi preparations: long-lasting methods, about a year of use with short courses alternating with large interruptions in treatment, and vice versa, a course of about three months, when chaperones are used continuously, with short breaks( preparations are applied for 5-6 days, then follows1-2 days break, and the process is repeated).
And if the last treatment method shows a curative effect quickly, then at the first positive changes appear although not immediately, but the results are better fixed.

With tumors of

For a long time, researchers have been arguing whether the birch mushroom helps the chaga to get rid of tumors and whether it helps to curb tumor growth. On the one hand, folk medicine has long recognized the antitumor effect of chaga and considered birch fungus a popular means for the treatment of cancer, on the other hand, a number of contradictory conclusions have been made in a number of studies by official medicine. As a result, on the basis of clinical study of chaga preparations, scientists have come to the conclusion that chaga, although it does not relieve the tumor and does not have a direct anti-cancer effect, in some cases helps cancer patients in the fight against cancer.
The whole point is that, without struggling alone with the tumor, the biologically active preparations of Chaga correlate all the internal forces of the body to fight the disease, thereby increasing the likelihood of cure. That is, if as an independent single drug in the treatment of cancer, chaga can not be used, then as an auxiliary tool birch mushroom chaga is very, very effective.
Preparations of chaga under the guidance of physicians are recommended to include in the schemes of complex therapy of medicinal and therapeutic and preventive agents of natural origin, especially considering their low toxicity and greater effectiveness of exposure.

What helps the birch mushroom chaga here? As it turned out, he:
exhibits pronounced antioxidant and antitoxic properties, thereby contributing to an increase in the body's defenses;
removes from the body any toxins and heavy metals, thereby contributing to the weakening of intoxications caused by tumors and chemotherapy;
quickly removes pain syndrome and has a positive effect on the nervous system;
normalizes the metabolism;
has anti-inflammatory, immunomodulating and antispasmodic effects;
enhances the activity of antitumor drugs.
Thus, chaga preparations, when used in complex cancer treatment, not only reduce pain and improve the overall well-being of patients, but also have a certain therapeutic effect.
The main tool for using chaga in the treatment of cancer is the basic infusion, the recipe of which is given above.
In this case, given the location of the tumor, in parallel with infusion, enemas, micronized, inhalation, compresses and rinses are used. Also, ointments and alcohol tinctures are sometimes prepared. Effective effect has also the drug "Beefungin".
There are two methods of using chagi preparations - a long-lasting technique, about a year of use with short courses alternating with long interruptions in treatment, and vice versa, a course of about three months, when chaperones are used continuously, with short interruptions( drugs are used for 5-6 days, thenfollowed by 1-2 days break, and the process is repeated).
And if the last treatment method shows a curative effect quickly, then at the first positive changes appear although not immediately, but the results are better fixed.

Contraindications

There are no special contraindications for chaga preparations. The fungus chaga is hypoallergenic, does not contain substances harmful to humans and has no cumulative effects, that is, it can not accumulate in the body.

It should be understood that with prolonged use of these fungi in people with shattered nerves, there may be increased excitability of the nervous system. It is not recommended to use chaga and for some intestinal diseases. I note that these recommendations apply not only to chaga, but to any other means - you should not treat yourself, it is better to consult with your doctor first, especially if you have chronic diseases.

for diseases accompanied by water retention in the body, it is necessary to prepare a more saturated infusion of chaga, so that the body does not get excess fluid;
