Description:
Cordyceps sinensis, known in English commonly as caterpillar fungus,
is considered a medicinal mushroom in oriental medicines, such as
traditional Chinese medicines and traditional Tibetan medicine.
Some work has been published in which Cordyceps sinensis has been
used to protect the bone marrow and digestive systems of mice from whole
body irradiation. An experiment noted a chemical compound isolated from
Cordyceps sinensis may protect the liver from damage. An experiment with
mice noted that Cordyceps sinensis may have an antidepressant effect.
Researchers have noted that a polysaccharide isolated from Cordyceps
sinensis has a hypoglycemic effect and may be beneficial for people with
insulin resistance.
Main Function
1.The mushroom was used as a cure all, but was especially thought to
be an aphrodisiac and a supplement for healthy male sexual function.
2.Cordyceps has been shown to stimulate the immune system and contain
anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties.
3.It has also been demonstrated that Cordyceps enhances blood circulation
and can lower LDL cholesterol while raising beneficial HDL cholesterol.

and as an energy booster.

of mushrooms.
