Cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis), also called yartsa gunbo, keera jhar, dong chong xia cao, tōchūkasō, and aweto has a long tradition in TCM and many other countries. Cordyceps has been traditionally used in Asia for strenuous, high altitude activities and as an immune tonic. Recently, professional athletes and fitness enthusiasts have discovered that Cordyceps may support the respiratory system and support healthy endurance levels.
Additionally it is used as a general tonic for weak constitution or sensitive nervous systems; following childbirth, or after prolonged illness or surgery.*

ORIVeDA Cordyceps is a combination of 66.6 % Cordyceps CS-4 mycelium extract and 33.4% Cordyceps militaris (CM) fruiting body extract. The level of cordycepin is > 1%, making it the most potent Cordyceps extract currently on the market, outclassing the best of the rest at least 3 times.

Uses:

• Supports healthy energy and stamina*
• Supports the body’s natural metabolic systems*

• Supports the respiratory system during athletic performance*

It is often taken together with Ginseng (Ren Shen) to enhance all positive effects, and in particular in support of the body during radiation and chemotherapy.

For people who are highly susceptible to swings in blood sugar levels (usually the same people that have problems with alcohol and caffeine): mushroom extracts can have an effect on blood sugar levels. People using insulin (such as diabetics) might have to adjust their medication. There are reports stating that taking mushroom extracts can cause of feeling of fatigue or dizziness in these cases because blood sugar levels are too low. Taking the product together with some sugar-containing beverage (such as freshly squeezed juice also contains vitamin C (!)) might help.

General Cautions:
Since the effect on pregnant and breast-feeding women has never been researched, we recommend against using mushroom extracts in these situations.
