Borvo Nutrients Chaga Mushroom Extract
Borvo's range of medicinal mushroom supplements for dogs are cultivated using organic means in the pristine forests of northern Finland. To avoid harming natural sources of wild mushrooms, the chaga mushroom we use is inoculated into birch trees.
Our pure Chaga mushroom extract powder contains the medicinal properties found in the Chaga conk. It is organically grown and sustainably harvested. The way the powder is processed is called Ultrasonic Assisted Extraction. This has two effects. One is that the structure of the mushrooms is altered so that the plant compounds become more available for dogs to use; the second effect is that the cells break down into smaller fragments which increases bio-availability.
By using full-spectrum mushrooms, we guarantee that our products contain a full range of bio-active compounds, including essential nutrients.
