We will be recommending and supporting Global Immunity which is manufactured in the U.S. and appears to be more cost effective, contains NO CHAGA, and is selected as the " 8 Miracle Mushrooms" product of the new millennium. We will be providing further information on this product as well as redesigning our site with regard to the information that has been provided as a public service regarding the Chaga Mushroom.

National Geographic Video: Race Against the Killer Flu

Imagine a flu that kills 70% of those it infects and has the potential to become as contagious as the common cold. Would a wide spread panic break out? Would martial law be imposed? Would the global; economy come to a halt? These are only a few concerns surrounding a deadly strain of avian influenza that first made news in Asia in 1997. Race Against the Killer Flu follows a swat team of virus hunters and the world's leading scientists in a  race to understand the latest threat. For you conspiracy buffs, funny thing about this video... it states that once the virus goes airborne, scientists will only have time to make 450,000 doses of vaccine...  (sounds awfully like like the 1/2 billion global survivors number reported since the 70s to be the target survival number of the reported "Global 2000" conspiracy) because the actual virus itself can't be used to make a vaccine because unlike previous flus, this flu destroys chicken eggs normally used to make previous vaccines, and the (once mutated) virus would have to be DNA modified enough to allow a vaccine that would not destroy the eggs it would be incubated in... and still produce an effective vaccine,

Chaga - "Mushroom of Immortality"??

Known as "Lingzhi" in China, and as "Reishi" in Japan. is a coffee flavored mushroom native to Poland and western Siberia. Since time immemorial, chaga has been used as a folk remedy for cancers, including inoperable breast cancer, lip cancer, gastric, parotid gland, pulmonary, stomach, skin, and rectal cancers, and Hodgkin’s disease. The key is that it is a "folk remedy" and there is nothing that proves it is a mushroom of immortality as the sellers of chaga would have you believe. (Most chaga is sold through multi level marketing companies which as we know go in and out of business routinely.)

In 1960, the U.S. National Cancer Institute noted a report that a decoction of chaga had been successfully to treat cancer in Australia. Chaga is only approved by the F.D.A as a dietary supplement however and has not been proven in the US to support any of these medical claims.

To this date, no side effects or toxicity of chaga have been reported but considering that most if not all chaga is made oveseas buyer beware!

Well known for stimulating the immune system and its anti-tumor activity, it was approved for public use against cancer by the Medical Academy of Science in Moscow in 1955. 1955? This is the type of information people use to sell chaga and is old and outdated information.

It has a long history of anti-cancer use in the Eastern Hemisphere. And then, so are tiger teeth and elephant tusks. Just approved for "food" use in the United States of America by the United States Food and Drug Administration and has not been approved as a medicine in any form in the US. We believe there is a much better product than CHAGA and that since CHAGA is manufactured primarily in China that this better product which is manufactured in the United States and contains no Chaga Mushroom should be much safer. We will be providing more information on this product soon.


Research is ongoing worldwide on Chaga's anticancer, antidiabetic efficacy and enhancing immune function. Chaga seems to help Diabetics by decreasing glucose absorption by controlling digestive enzymes. Key word here is "research is ongoing."

There have been 150 species of medicinal mushrooms found to inhibit the growth of different kinds of tumors, especially cancers of the stomach, esophagus, and lungs so chaga is probably NOT the king of Herbs.




The King of Herbs??


King of the Herbal Adaptogens

The word Chaga derives from indigenous languages which are spoken around the entire Arctic Circle, and in North America native people use it for medicine and call it Tiaga or Tsi Aga. The Nez Perce people used it in pemmican and were immune to diseases brought in to them by early trappers. Again this is another statement used by those that sell chaga usually thru multi level marketing companies but how does that prove anything???

Herbal Immune Builders

There are many immune builders to choose from and most have track records that date back thousands of years.Chaga is not the cure-all end-all magic cure.

Siberian Russian Chaga is the chaga widely touted by some multi-level marketing firms however it is our opinion that one can find better, healthier products made in the USA
