Among the numerous species of this mashroom, Cordyceps sinensis is the most famous due to its curing properties. This was discovered by the Chinese many centuries ago, they observed that when sheep, grazed on Cordyceps, they were stronger and healthier. Traditional herbalists began using the fungus for treating many diseases in humans. Cordyceps was believed to be a cure-all herb, able to fortify all the systems in the body, providing anti-aging, immune boosting, and strength increasing effects. This mushroom is especially popular for its ability to improve male sexual function, working as an aphrodisiac. Its influence on the human organism was often compared to that of ginseng.
The Western world discovered Cordyceps not so long ago, mainly due to the works and research of Dr. Georges Halpern, a physician and professor emeritus with the University of Hong Kong, and the author of several books about Cordyceps. He and other scientists and herbalists confirm that the mushroom can:
- stimulate the immune system; - cure sexual dysfunction in men; - maximize body oxygen uptake; - build muscles; - improve kidney, liver, and lung functioning; - provide anti-aging effect...
And more....
The mechanism of Cordyceps is not yet known. The fungus effects are connected with its components, which are classified as “host defense potentiators” (HDPs): polysaccharides, ophiocordin (an antibiotic compound), cordypyridones, nucleosides, bioxanthracenes, sterols, alkenoic acids, hemicellulose, triterpeniods, complex starches and exo-polymers. Special emphasis is made on two chemicals, which are believed to be active Cordyceps compounds: cordycepin (deoxyadenosine) and cordycepic acid (mannitol). Many scientists, believe that the above ingredients in combination are responsible for Cordyceps health benefits.
