Lately, I’ve been feeling a little more bloated than usual and suspected a touch of
candida overgrowth. That got me thinking about how to gently support my system and
bring chaga mushrooms back into my routine. From that reflection, this simple,
nourishing hot chocolate was born.
Dark chocolate, especially 85 percent or higher, is far more than a comfort food. It has
been shown to support stem cell regeneration, which plays a vital role in healing and
renewal. Stem cells repair damaged tissue, support recovery, and help maintain vitality
and immune health as we age. In embryos, they form every organ. In adults, they quietly
keep us resilient.
It’s no coincidence that many women crave chocolate when menstruating or feeling low.
Dark chocolate is rich in magnesium, which helps relax the nervous system, and it
stimulates the release of pleasure chemicals like phenylethylamine, a compound that
mirrors the chemistry of love, connection, and even orgasm.
This is medicine disguised as pleasure.
Here is my hot chocolate with chaga recipe.
Two squares of good quality dark chocolate
One cup of oat milk or any milk you enjoy
One tablespoon of chaga powder
A dash of vanilla
One tablespoon of maple syrup or stevia
Optional a pinch of cayenne
Gently warm, stir, and enjoy the ride.
Why chaga?
It supports the immune system
Helps address candida overgrowth
Is rich in B vitamins for energy and resilience
Contains polysaccharides that support healthy white blood cell production
And has a calming effect on stress and anxiety
Sometimes healing does not need to be complicated. Sometimes it looks like slowing
down, warming your body, and letting nourishment do its quiet work. Allow yourself to
reconnect to your body. Get our chaga mushroom mix here.
