Product Details

Cordyceps has a long history of use in China and Tibet, but has also been used by indigenous people around the world.1 Basically unknown in the Western world until it attracted the attention of the general public and the health profession in 1993 when a group of Chinese runners broke nine world records in the World Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Germany. Afterwards the coach attributed those results to the athletes’ regular use of a Cordyceps based tonic. It is now used by both Olympian and professional athletes worldwide and is not restricted as an athletic enhancing substance, because it is considered a food.

This mushroom can be made into an instant tea by adding hot water to ½ to 1 tsp. (depending on strength desired) of mushroom powder. The mushroom has been presteamed to create a 1:1 extract suitable for many food needs. It can be added to blender drinks, sauces, and soups, or sprinkled on food.
