What is Chaga mushroom?
Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) grows wild on birch trees in cold northern climates, and it’s earned the nickname “King of Mushrooms.” Technically it’s not a classic capped mushroom at all — it’s a dense, dark fungal mass that concentrates compounds from the birch it grows on.
It’s been brewed as a traditional tea in Siberia and Northern Europe for centuries, prized as one of nature’s richest sources of antioxidants.
What is Chaga good for?
Chaga is best known for its antioxidant density — compounds that help your body manage everyday oxidative stress. It’s also traditionally used to support immune function, which is why it shows up in so many modern wellness blends. Wondering why your coffee couldn’t just do that too? Ours does.
How do you use Chaga?
Traditionally you’d simmer chunks of it into tea for hours. We’d rather you didn’t have to. Chaga is one of the four mushrooms (Maitake, Reishi, Lion’s Mane, and Chaga) blended into our Protein Coffee and Protein Matcha, and it’s one of the five mushrooms in our Protein Mushroom Coffee — zero extra prep, zero mushroom flavor.
Are there side effects to Chaga?
Chaga is generally well tolerated in food amounts. Because it’s naturally rich in oxalates, people with kidney concerns should be mindful, and anyone pregnant, nursing, or on medication — especially blood thinners or diabetes medication — should consult a healthcare provider first.
