(NaturalNews) Wild foods expert Daniel Vitalis is teaching a rare course on the wildcrafting of Chaga mushrooms in a teleconference on Thursday, December 4th, at 7pm Eastern Time. The course includes a one-hour teleconference, a downloadable audio file of the live teleconference, a downloadable video showing mushroom recipes and preparations, and additional support materials from Vitalis.
Chaga is a prized medicinal mushroom best known for its powerful anti-cancer properties. As stated on Wikipedia (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaga_mushroom):
"The antimutagenic action of the molecules found in the white part of birch bark where chaga feeds inhibits free-radical oxidation and also induces the production of interferons, which helps induce DNA repair. The substances, contained in white part of birch bark contribute to the decrease of hypoxia and to increase of the stability of organism to the oxygen deficiency, being antihypoxant correcting the metabolism of cells. The anti-cancer properties of betulin or betulinic acid, a chemical isolated from birch trees, is now being studied for use as a chemotherapeutic agent. Chaga contains large amounts of betulinic acid in a form that can be ingested orally, and it also contains the full spectrum of immune-stimulating phytochemicals found in other
medicinal mushrooms such as maitake mushroom and shiitake mushroom."
Daniel Vitalis has emerged as one of the most deeply knowledgeable people about wildcrafted
mushrooms. He's a gifted speaker and a spiritual follower of the transformative Asian healing arts. Until the last year or so, few people knew about Vitalis, but through various speaking engagements (such as the Best Weekend Ever with David Wolfe and Len Foley), he has become one of the most sought-after experts on real-world, practical harvesting and use of
medicinal mushrooms.
NaturalNews highly recommends his teleconference to anyone interested in learning how to get closer to
nature by wildcrafting these remarkable medicinal mushrooms, straight from nature. Although this seems like the Winter in many parts of the world, it's actually a great season for harvesting Chaga mushrooms in many areas, and the knowledge Vitalis provides is invaluable year-round.
