A History of Healing

For hundreds of years, the indigenous peoples of Bhutan, Tibet and Nepal have witnessed the curative power of Cordyceps first-hand. The earliest known documentation on the health benefits of the fungi is by a 13th century physician.

Now grown in both the lab and the wild, Cordyceps is one of the prized gems of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The species gathered in the Himalayas, Ophiocordyceps sinensis, grows only on the Tibetan Plateau, on the larvae of a single species of moth, and is in such limited supply that the Chinese sometimes refer to it as “soft gold”. Our species, Cordyceps militaris, shares its principal bioactive compound, is found worldwide, and unlike O. sinensis can be cultivated. That is what makes a consistent product possible.

Research & Development

Cordycepin, an adenosine derivative from Cordyceps, is the fungus’ principal bioactive ingredient and the primary source of its many health benefits.

After more than three years’ R&D, we have achieved some of the highest concentrations of cordycepin commercially available today with our highest-grade product certified at 12,000ppm.
