DXN Cordyceps 3 in 1 Coffee

What Is Cordyceps

cordyceps sinensisScientific Name: Cordyceps Sinensis
Other Names: Cordyceps mushroom, Caterpillar fungus (English), dong zhong chang cao, dongchongxiacao (China),  semitake (Japan), zhongcao,  and chongcao (China).

Cordyceps sinensis also known as caterpillar fungus is commonly mistaken as a mushroom but is actually a parasitic fungus, indigenous to China and Tibet. Cordyceps sinensis is formed when the fungus attacks moth caterpillars infecting it with spores during fall then germinates over the winter. When spring comes, the fungus has completely killed and mummified the caterpillar growing and producing a long slender fruiting body.

The fruiting body which is composed the remains of the caterpillar and the fungus are then hand collected, dried and preserved to be used as an herbal medicine.
Cordyceps sinensis has been used for centuries in traditional Asian medicine and Chinese medicine, although only as of late that the western medicine has taken notice for its medicinal benefits.

An Energy Supplement Fit for an Olympian

If you’re a close follower of the Olympic games, cordyceps may ring a bell for you. At the 1993 games, 3 female Chinese runners broke 5 world records. Predictably, the officials insisted on testing the runners for anabolic steroids, but the results proved negative. The women had ingested absolutely nothing illegal—the only performance booster they used was cordyceps.
This incident spurred talk of banning cordyceps in professional athletic competitions due to its tremendous effects. But the U.S. Olympic Committee has officially ruled cordyceps to be legal on the basis of its strong safety record and outstanding health benefits. Many successful endurance athletes now use cordyceps routinely—including, it is believed, Lance Armstrong’s Team Postal during their record-breaking 7 Tour De France wins.
Scientists aren’t certain how the benefits of cordyceps boosts energy and endurance. One theory is that the mushroom streamlines your body’s energy use by increasing blood flow to your liver and other organs, and thus improving your overall oxygen use. Additionally, the mushroom’s antioxidant activity is thought to lift fatigue and maximize stamina.
The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center notes that the benefits of cordyceps can be used for a wide range of conditions, such as:
    • Fatigue
    • Sexual dysfunction
    • Coughs
    • Immune supplement
    • Some cancers
