Description
Products Description
Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) is a slow-growing fungal conk that develops on birch trees in cold northern climates, where it has been used for centuries - particularly in Siberian, Baltic, and traditional Chinese medicine practices - as a general tonic and digestive-support remedy. Unlike many commercial mushroom extracts derived from mycelium grown on grain substrate, authentic chaga extract is sourced from the actual fruiting body/conk, which develops its distinctive bioactive profile - including beta-glucans, melanin complexes, and betulinic acid derivatives absorbed from the host birch tree - over years of natural maturation.
Sheerherb's Chaga Mushroom Extract Powder is extracted exclusively from whole fruiting body conks, not mycelium-on-grain material, with polysaccharide and beta-glucan content verified by HPLC/UPLC on every batch, along with FTIR species identity confirmation. We supply supplement manufacturers, functional beverage producers, and contract manufacturers sourcing authenticated chaga raw material for immune-support and antioxidant-focused formulations.

Product Benefits
Chaga Mushroom Extract Powder is valued mainly for its beta-glucan and melanin-complex content, which underpins most of its functional positioning:
1. Immune Support Formulations
Its standardized beta-glucan content - distinct from the starch-based alpha-glucans found in lower-quality mycelium-on-grain products - supports formulas targeting immune cell activity and general immune surveillance.
2. Antioxidant & Cellular Health Positioning
Chaga's exceptionally high melanin concentration and SOD (superoxide dismutase) content support formulas targeting oxidative stress and cellular protection.
3. Authenticity & Verified Sourcing Advantage
Fruiting-body sourcing with FTIR identity confirmation addresses a well-known quality gap in the medicinal mushroom category, where many products substitute cheaper mycelium-on-grain material.
4. Traditional Tonic & Digestive Wellness Category
Its long history of traditional use supports positioning in general wellness and digestive-support formulations.

Products Application
Dietary Supplements
Standardized beta-glucan content and verified fruiting-body sourcing support capsule and tablet formulations targeting immune-support claims.
Functional Beverages & Mushroom Coffee/Tea
Water solubility supports inclusion in mushroom coffee blends, tea formulations, and functional beverage powders.
Multi-Mushroom Blends
Its compatibility with other medicinal mushroom extracts supports inclusion in broader "mushroom complex" formulations.
FAQ
Q: What specifications do you offer for bulk orders?
A: 30% or 40% polysaccharides, with 8% or 30% beta-glucan standardization, tested by HPLC/UPLC. Specs can be adjusted to your formulation target, with COA, MSDS, species identity (FTIR) confirmation, and microbiological reports provided per batch.
Q: What is your MOQ for wholesale orders?
A: MOQ typically starts from 1kg for trial quantities, up to 25kg drums for commercial orders. Flexible terms available for long-term partnerships.
Q: Is this extract from real chaga fruiting bodies, or mycelium grown on grain?
A: Our extract is sourced exclusively from whole fruiting body/conk material, not mycelium-on-grain. This distinction matters significantly for beta-glucan authenticity - mycelium-on-grain products often contain high levels of starch-based alpha-glucans that inflate "polysaccharide" claims without delivering genuine mushroom bioactives.
Q: How do you ensure quality and stability during shipping?
A: Controlled extraction process, packed in moisture-resistant, food-grade packaging. Recommend storing in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
Q: How do you ensure batch-to-batch consistency?
A: Every batch is tested for polysaccharide and beta-glucan content by HPLC/UPLC, species identity by FTIR, moisture, and microbial limits before release, with full documentation provided for traceability.
Q: Do you support OEM/private label projects?
A: Yes - including custom blends with reishi or black pepper extract for medicinal mushroom formulas. Our team can advise on compatibility for qualifying volumes.
