Chaga Protects Healthy Lung Cells While Hitting Cancer Cells

Chaga Protects Healthy Lung Cells While Hitting Cancer Cells

Chaga

What they found

Low chaga doses (25-75 μg/mL) helped healthy lung cells survive while higher doses (100-200 μg/mL) reduced cancer cell survival.

At lower doses (25-75 μg/mL), chaga boosted healthy cell survival and growth in both trophoblast and lung cells, while higher doses (100-200 μg/mL) selectively reduced cancer cell survival. It was rich in antioxidant properties, protecting lung cells from oxidative damage at 50-75 μg/mL concentrations.
