Organic Chinese Cordyceps powder. Food supplement. 100g

Cordyceps is a parasitic fungus. It is interesting in that it does not grow on trees, but on insect larvae, including butterflies, ants and other insects, such as cicadas. When cordyceps spores are scattered on the victim, it is covered with mycelium, and the fungus begins to feed on it. When the insect dies, the cordyceps grows a fruiting body from its mummified body, which, emerging from the ground, scatters spores.

Mummified insects and cordyceps remains were collected by hand and then dried. This mushroom, called the gold of the Himalayas, has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries.

Of the more than 500 species of cordyceps discovered, Cordyceps sinensis and Cordyceps militaris have received the most attention. Since 1964, Cordyceps sinensis has been officially listed as an herbal medicine in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. In China, cordyceps is found at an altitude of 3,500–5,000 m, mainly in the provinces of Qinghai, Tibet, Sichuan, Yunnan and Gansu.
About Chinese Cordyceps Mushroom Powder

Dried Chinese Cordyceps mushrooms are ground using a special industrial (superfine grinding) method until they are practically dusty. This breaks down chitin, releasing a wide range of beneficial substances. Chitin is the main building material of fungal cell walls, which is also used to make the skeleton of arthropods. If the chitin molecule is not broken down, the beneficial substances remain "closed" in the cell and are eliminated from the body through the digestive process. Chitin can also be broken down by thermally treating mushrooms: by boiling, frying or freezing them, but the percentage of chitin broken down in this way is very small, so if you decide to use mushrooms as a dietary supplement, you would have to eat an impossible amount of them.

Additionally, the mushroom powder is dried in a vacuum with constant stirring, which further disrupts the fungal cell walls, increasing the bioavailability of intracellular substances.
