Origin of Chaga Mushrooms
Chaga mushroom, often referred to as the “King of Mushrooms,” has a long tradition of use in Eastern Europe, Asia, and North America, where it was historically valued for its contribution to general wellness. In Siberia, the Khanty people were among the earliest documented users of Chaga, using it in teas and purification practices as early as the 12th century. In Canada, Chaga also holds a place in the traditional practices of several Indigenous Nations, including the Cree, Chipewyan, and Ojibway, who used it as part of their cultural approach to health.
