We use a combination of mushroom parts including the young fruiting bodies, mycelium and the fermented mushroom medium to provide a full-spectrum profile of nutrients.
Studies show increases in oxygen uptake, aerobic capacity, and resistance to fatigue (especially beneficial for elderly, recovery from illness, and athletic performance). Cordyceps can naturally support energy levels.
Studies show one of the key ways cordyceps enhances energy levels is by increasing the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), a molecule that stores and transfers energy within cells, helping to improve energy levels, and reduce fatigue. It has also been shown to reduce the build-up of lactic acid in the muscles, helping to improve exercise recovery and reduce muscle soreness.
Cordyceps is an adaptogen which helps to bring balance to the body. Studies have shown participants were better able to withstand stress when they took cordyceps compared to when they didn’t.
Used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to support sexual function. Several studies have looked into the effects of cordyceps on libido and sexual health suggesting it may increase levels of male sex hormones, and improve sperm quality and quantity.
Rich in nucleosides/tides. The content of adenosine is much higher in cultured cordyceps than wild. Adenosine is used throughout the entire body in metabolism.
Cordyceps is rich in polysaccharides like beta-glucans which are immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory.
Our Organic Cordyceps Perform uses the full-spectrum biomass grown on organic sorghum as the preferred medium for this mushroom. It is grown for 120 days, as opposed to the standard 30 days, exhausting the substrate and providing a more concentrated profile of beta-glucans and other key compounds.
It has a minimum of 15% beta glucans, and 208ug adenosine to support energy, and sports performance.
