Chaga is an ancient folk remedy
used throughout Siberia, Scandinavia, the northern US and Canada for
cancer and immune deficiency. Unfortunately, little research has
been done on Chaga. It is a rich source of betulin, which has been
shown broad spectrum anti-tumor activity with virtually no toxicity
as well as immune potentiating mushroom polysaccharides. |
