Organic Cordyceps
Cordyceps is an edible mushroom that when consumed has been shown to have a host of health and performance benefits. Studies have demonstrated its ability to promote oxygen uptake, energy and endurance as well as support immunity focus and blood sugar regulation. This is a 10:1 concentrated extract, which means we use 10g of raw Cordyceps to make 1g of powder. All our mushroom powder extracts are naturally wild-crafted, dual extracted and concentrated for maximum levels of beneficial compounds with no heavy metals or toxins.

Benefits may include support for:
- Energy (ATP) production
- Oxygen absorption and utilisation, boosting V02 max
- Mental and physical performance
- Blood flow
- Enhanced endurance / counteract fatigue
- Supports respiratory function and enhances lung capacity
- Boost the immune system
How it works: Up-regulates energy production through stimulating mitochondrial ATP generation. Enhances oxygen delivery, utilisation and blood flow by increasing vasodilation and metabolic efficiency.
What makes our Cordyceps different? Our Cordyceps are made from 100% fruiting bodies, certified organic and wild-crafted with natural lighting and fresh air. We then use a dual-extraction and vacuum drying process to turn the mushrooms into an 10:1 concentrated extract powder.
On completion of this process, we have our finished product lab analysed to demonstrate how our method maintains a really high level of the beneficial beta-glucans present in these mushrooms. Our latest batch contains 25.6%.
Our Cordyceps are packaged in Miron Glass jars to provide complete protection from UV rays which can degrade the quality of the product.
This product DOES NOT contain mycelium, starch, pesticides, toxins or fillers of any kind.

Storage Instructions
All of our mushroom extracts are very hygroscopic (they absorb moisture out of the air very easily). Therefore, to ensure they remain as a powder and do not clump, store them in a non humid environment and re-apply the lid shortly after using. As with all our products, our goal is to provide the purist form possible and therefore chose not to mix fibres or maltodextrin with the mushrooms that are often used to prevent the powder clumping.
FAQs Questions
Do you lab test your finished products?
Of course - every batch is tested for heavy metals and beta-glucan percentage. Beta-glucans are the compounds within Cordyceps, which give it its immune enhancing properties.
What level of Cordycepin do these Cordyceps contain?
Our latest batch contains 0.65% Cordycepin

How do Cordyceps work?
Cordyceps can help up-regulate energy production through stimulating mitochondrial ATP generation. Enhances oxygen delivery, utilisation and blood flow by increasing vasodilation and metabolic efficiency.
Will taking your supplements break a fast?
If you are doing a water fast with zero calories, then they will break the fast, as a serving contains a very small amount of calories. However, if your fasting goals are autophagy or healing your gut microbiome, you can take the supplements without negatively impacting those goals.
