Cordyceps

Cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis) is a fungus belonging to the sac fungi that has been known in Chinese tradition for centuries. Mycelium is the part of a fungus made up of fine threads, from which the fruiting body also develops. This product uses cordyceps mycelium, not the fruiting body. The constituents of cordyceps include, among others, polysaccharides and nucleosides. Each capsule contains 750 mg of mycelium without added flavourings or sweeteners.

How to use?

Take 2 capsules 2 to 3 times a day, i.e. 4–6 capsules daily in total, and swallow them with a glass of water. You can spread the daily amount over the day, for example morning, midday and evening. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose of 6 capsules. If you use other food supplements containing mushrooms at the same time, take their amounts into account too. At two servings a day, one container lasts 22 days; at three servings, 15 days.
