Cordyceps CS-4 at Optimal Concentration
Ideal composition, maximum strength and efficiency
Cordyceps was one of the most valuable mushrooms used to harmonize the soul and body in ancient China and Tibet. This alien mushroom is a rich source of beta-glucans, minerals, trace elements and vitamins.
Cordyceps sinensis belongs to the genus Cordyceps, which also includes Cordyceps militaris, Cordyceps liangshamensis, Cordyceps gunnii, etc. (almost 700 species have been discovered), it is a sac-shaped edible parasitic mushroom. Its spores attach to the surfaces of insect larvae and subsequently fill the entire box with their sclerotium, which then grows into a mature fungus. Cordyceps grows at altitudes above about 3,500 meters above sea level, mainly in the mountains of Tibet, in the Chinese provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan, etc. The mushroom is collected from April to August. However, there is little to be found in the wild. Apparently, over the last 25 years, the occurrence has decreased by 90%, which of course increased its value in the market, which is why this mushroom is also cultivated artificially. The demand for Cordyceps is mainly due to its effects on human health.
The power of Cordyceps pohas been used in traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine for thousands of years. There are stories that describe how yak herders noticed a change in the animals if they grazed Cordyceps. The animals were more vital, stronger, healthier and more potent. Written records can then be traced back to 620 A.D. Cordyceps has only been known to the Western world since 1726, when it was introduced at a mycological conference in Paris. But back then, the Western world had no idea about the effects of Cordyceps. However, this changed, albeit much later, thanks to the fact that in 1964 Cordyceps was officially registered among herbal medicines in Chinese pharmacology.
