Natural Birch Bark Extracts have been used by Northern cultures for thousands of years as part of their traditions. Recently, science has shown how the active compounds in birch bark (Betulin, Betulinic Acid, and Lupeol) help to protect and support a healthy body in many ways. Ancient wisdom and modern practices have combined to provide you with these benefits from natural, sustainable, and traceable sources. Birch Bark Extract is a popular dietary supplement for promoting healthy joints, skin health, and supporting the immune system, but what exactly makes Birch Bark Extract so special? Birch Bark Extract and Chaga are very similar. Birch bark extract and the Chaga mushroom share the same active compounds that make Chaga so popular. This is because the Chaga mushroom extracts and absorbs the triterpenes betulin, betulinic acid, and lupeol from the birch bark it grows on. Birch Bark Extract is special as it has a much higher concentration of the powerful triterpene ingredients. If you are taking Chaga for its health benefits, then you understand the power of the triterpene compounds.
