WHAT
IS CORDYCEPS?
Cordyceps
(Cordyceps sinensis) is known as a powerful tonic which gives
the body increased vitality and energy and has significant
additional benefits. Cordyceps enhances blood flow and lowers
cholesterol (Georges
Halpern, MD, Ph.D. in: "Cordyceps, China's Healing Mushroom", 1999. Avery
Publishing Group, New York"). In a study in which 9
hospitals participated with a total of 273 patients, a two months
daily treatment with three grams Cordyceps (the equivalent of four
capsules) lowered total cholesterol by 17%. Beneficial cholesterol (HDL)
was elevated by 27%, while triglyceride concentration was lowered by
9% on average. Cordyceps is known as a totally safe nutraceutical
supplement. A 7-day exposure to 80 g/kg Cordyceps did not result in
any negative effects in a recent laboratory study.

HISTORY
OF CORDYCEPS
|
|
More than 1500
years ago in the Himalayan Mountains of Tibet, the lush meadows
close to the snow line were covered with many flowering plants
and grasses. The local herdsmen who liked this area for herding,
gradually noticed that when their cattle and sheep chewed a
particular grass, they became very strong. Even old yaks showed
signs of being younger, and had increased natural vigor. Little
did they suspect that this "grass" actually was a
parasitic fungus which invades the body of caterpillars and eats
the soft tissue. The "grass" part is the fruiting body
of this mushroom. It is called Cordyceps
sinensis.
Was it possible
that small grass contained some mysterious ingredient? Some
traditional Chinese doctors started to gather them as medication
for their patients. To their surprise, the grasses did wonders
for several diseases for which they did not previously have any
cure. And so the medicinal powers of Cordyceps sinensis were
discovered. Its mysterious health effects were passed from one
generation to another.
More than 1000
years later, in the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's court physicians
studied the Cordyceps formula, and using their
own experience and wisdom, improved on their usage. Cordyceps
then became a respected TMC (Traditional Chinese Medicine) drug
but was available only for the Imperial Palace. The common
people had no authorization to use Cordyceps.
The Chinese named it Dong Chong Yia Cao, or "winter-worm,
summer grass".
