Cordyceps, also known as the caterpillar fungus, is a medicinal mushroom that was once exclusively reserved for use by the Chinese Royal Family. The original wild version (Cordyceps Sinensis), also called "Caterpillar Fungus", is quite different than other types of medicinal mushrooms in that it germinates from the mummified body of various insects, growing as elongated blade-like mycelium rather than the usual mushroom cap varieties. This powerful mushroom has a small, thin fruiting body, and it can increase energy, boost health, detox the body, increase oxygen uptake, and improve immunity. It is highly revered by athletes for its ability to greatly improve performance, build physical power and strength, stamina and promote fast recovery. USES: Cordyceps Extract is highly effective and can be added to coffee, tea, smoothies, shakes, soups, raw chocolate, and more.
