20x more active SOD

What Chaga Provides That Other Herbs and Vegetables Do Not

If you maintain a good paleo, vegetarian, vegan, or Mediterranean diet, then you are most likely satisfying your body’s need for 95% of the vitamins and minerals also found in Chaga.
What makes this herb most unique is its extremely high concentration of SOD.

Chaga provides 20 times more active SOD than the next strongest medicinal mushroom (agaricus).
Studies also found that Chaga has 3 times (Bear’s U-S-E 3.6 times!!!) more antioxidant power than the next strongest food of any kind (wolf berry).[2] So according to the study, Chaga is the #1 best antioxidant source in existence. Additionally, Chaga provides 19 of the 20 amino acids required by humans, making it a valuable supplement for vegetarians/vegans.

Antioxidants and SOD are Important for Health and Longevity

Antioxidants and SOD are Important for Health and Longevity

Free radicals are harmful molecules that contain unpaired electrons—which is unusual because electrons typically come in pairs. Thus they are highly reactive and can even scavenge electrons from other molecules making more free radicals.

When this occurs in the body in excess, it results in damage to DNA, proteins, enzymes, and cell membranes. These effects can lead to numerous biological problems, including the initiation of cancerous tumors. [3] This is called oxidation and is the reason why foods rot, why animals age, and why metals rust. Antioxidants are molecules with extra electrons that can donate them to free radicals.

This neutralises the free radical, and renders it inert before it can cause damage. In the case of the enzyme SOD, superoxide dismutase is arguably the body’s most crucial antioxidant, as it is responsible for disarming the most dangerous free radicals of all: the highly reactive superoxide radicals. Thus, providing your body with a high concentration of antioxidants is essential to keeping your cells intact and healthy, and Chaga is proven to be an excellent way of doing it.

Additional Chaga Benefits: Proven to Destroy Cancerous Liver, Lung, and Colon Cells in Humans A study published in the World Journal of Gastroenterology, researchers discovered that Chaga extract causes cancerous liver cells to stop dividing. Higher doses of Chaga extract were shown to kill nearly 60% of HepG2 cancerous cells.[4] The Chaga does this by activating enzymes that cut apart portions of the cancerous cell, leading to cell-suicide. In another study, scientists found that Chaga can also cause the death of cancerous lung and colon cells.[5] Both studies concluded that while the Chaga extract was lethal to cancerous cells, it was completely safe for normal cells.

Bear's Ultimate-Super-Extracts

8 kg mushroom for 1 kg U-S-E

In order to become a highly concentrated powder extract our Ultimate-Super-Extract had undergone a technological process called freeze-dry multi extraction. Why do we need to apply this process to the Chaga? Because we want to receive the maximum benefits from the mushroom and use it as a Biologically Active Food Supplement.

The extraction process allows to activate the health supportive compounds which in the raw Chaga are “stored” in a passive state. Unlike raw Chaga, my Chaga U-S-E has these biological substances activated, i.e. digestible by our body. Raw Chaga (only ground mushroom powder) can not be digested by humans and the health supportive compounds would leave our body without a trace.

The “activation” we apply on our Chaga is through the process of freeze-dry multi extraction. The extraction process allows to remove useless substances and concentrate the maximum of health supportive biological compounds.

In order to receive 1 kg of my Chaga Ultimate-Super-Extract, we use approximately 8 kg of raw mushroom.

Bearmedicine’s Chaga:

ORAC value of 153.200!

Antioxidants remove free radicals and support healthy cells.

Thus we can see that antioxidants are crucial for our health. Scientists developed an ORAC scale, which is a standard recommended by USDA to measure the antioxidant capacity.

ORAC stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbent Capacity, or the strength with which a given substance wipes out free radicals.

Obviously, the higher the ORAC score the more free radicals this certain substance can destroy.

The Brunswick Lab, USA conducted sophisticated test called ORAC 5.0 on our Chaga Ultimate-Super-Extract.

It expands the ORAC platform to measure the antioxidant capacity of a product against five primary reactive oxygen species (commonly referred to as radicals) peroxyl, hydroxyl, peroxynitrite, superoxide anion and singlet oxygen. It is more informative than a simple Hydrophilic ORAC test.

This test has revealed the full spectrum of the antioxidative capacity of our Chaga Ultimate-Super-Extract with impressive results!

Our Chaga Multi-Super-Extract has total ORAC value of 153.200 yTE/100g.

Chaga(+Mumijo) Ultimate Super extract …

1. Highest Source of Antioxidants on the Planet

Free-Radical-Absorber (ORAC) index of 153.200 (second best, Wolf Berry, only 41.000!)

2. 30% Human-like DNA !!!

Chaga carries Human-like DNA, and thus the perfect companion for enhancing human wellbeing.

3. Highest natural source of SOD-Enzyme on the Planet

SOD (Superoxide Dismutase) is a major important anti-cancer enzyme for humans. Chaga has 13 times more SOD than any other mushroom.

4. Ultimate-Super-Extract really is the best!

All Chaga supplements are simply not the same! Our sublimation extracting process results in a product that contains the highest values of antioxidants and other compounds not found in any other Chaga supplement on the planet, such as...

5. only our Chaga contains 60% Cromogenic-Complex

Chaga from organic cultivation contains 0%!! If wild grown, regular Chaga (single or dual) extract around 40%, powder/tea only 15%.

6. ... and a unique 35% Polysaccharide & 33% Beta-Glucans

7. Accesses 100% of the relevante active compounds

whereas Chaga powder or Chaga Tea don’t even reach the 15% mark; regular Chaga-Extract or Dual-Extract around only 40%.

8. Only from Siberian wild grown Chaga Mushroom

We don’t use Chaga from “organic” (artiﬁ cial!) cultivation. Only wild harvested Chaga contains Cromogenic-Complex. “Organic” Chaga doesn’t contain any!!!

9. 100% Undamaged Chaga Mushroom DNA

Only our Ultimate-Super-Extract, because of it’s highly advanced method of processing, has a fully undamaged Chaga DNA, whereas cooking tea with powder or a spray-dry/alcohol extract destroy and loose most of it.

10. 8 kg mushrooms result in 1 kg high potentized Super-Extract

11. Only real Mumijo! No Shilajit!

The King of Herbs contains only real Siberian Mumijo of fossilized Honey origins. Whereas most of the “Shilajit” available are of very low quality of other origins (plants, oil) or even fake!
