Wild Alaska Chaga

I heard that wild Alaska Chaga tea is good for the immune system. I drink it often once a day with creamer. It tastes pretty good. Did anyone else also hear this or no? I am doing ok on my new treatment, don't like my thinning hair but that is bound to happen. Time for me to think about hair extensions or something. I still work, don't want it to be noticeable. Take care everyone, I will say a prayer for us.

Hi Susie,

I drink Chaga tea and hot chocolate. Unfortunately, it has not helped with my thinning hair.

Try putting aloe vera on your hair every night. Its full of nutrients that hair needs. Its given me back a full head of hair.

Another lady on here recommended Haitian black castor oil as well as aloe vera.

Hope that helps xx

Hi Andersl,

That is so interesting, re: the aloe vera! I'd love to get some of my hair back! This is an ignorant question, but when you say to put "aloe vera" on your hair, do you mean from the actual leaves, or a gel, or...what? Like what would I buy?

Thanks!

Lynn

Hi Susie,

Chaga is one of the medicinal mushrooms in my 5 mushroom mix (the others are lion's mane, cordyceps, reishi and agaricus). I'm pretty sure you are right, it is an immune system booster. Best wishes, sending love xxx

My oncologist told me not to use any of these mushrooms as they are broken down in the liver the same as Ibrance. He said he has had patients with liver failure due to the quantity of mushrooms they ingested. Just what he has told me.
