| Cordyceps (dong chong xia cao) has been taken for thousands of years to help build body strength and immunity, improve lung functioning, strengthen the immune system and even heighten sex drive. Cordyceps is also being used by many chemotherapy and radiation patients to help fight the fatigue and lethargy associated with these processes (check with your physician first). Now being hailed as "the next Ginseng", Cordyceps is available as a daily nutritional supplement that may help improve your overall health and well-being. Packaging: 100 capsules
Recommended Dosage: 2-4 capsules per day Cordyceps has been an important Chinese herb for thousands of years and is just now being discovered in Western countries. In ancient China, Cordyceps was highly sought after as one of the most effective herbal cure-alls. This valuable herb has been used historically as a daily tonic to help the body build strength, improve breathing and lung functioning, strengthen the immune system, heighten sexual energy and enhance longevity. Due to its anti-aging and immunity-enhancing properties, it has been compared favorably to Red Ginseng and Reishi. Cordyceps is a Chinese mushroom fungus that can be found in isolated places in southwestern China. Although it was originally discovered as a parasitic organism growing on a rare Tibetan caterpillar (hence its nickname, Chinese Caterpillar Fungus!), most modern Cordyceps is grown on soybeans or other nutrient sources. Cordyceps popularity among herbalists is due to its beneficial effects on reproductive invigoration, lung "protection" and qi/energy enhancement. In fact, Cordyceps has been called "the next Ginseng" due to its overall effects on energy levels, sex drive and athletic performance. Although the pharmacologically active components of Cordyceps remain unknown, at least two chemical constituents, cordycepin (deoxyadenosine) and cordycepic acid (mannitol), have been identified and suggested as being the active compounds in improving lung function and increasing energy levels and sex drive.
