Cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis), or caterpillar fungus, is a species of parasitic fungus native to regions in Nepal and Tibet. It has been used for ages in Chinese herbal medicine. Europeans became better acquainted with their properties in 1993. At the Olympics in Beijing, Chinese female runners were admired for their good form and results. It turned out that all competitors took Cordyceps sinensis mycelium extracts.
Scientists have analysed in depth phytochemical composition of cordyceps and detected a number of compounds with pharmacological effects. Cordycepin and adenosine were identified as the most important. A major role is also played by polysaccharides, beta-glucans, phytosterols, and flavones. In addition, cordyceps is abundant in vitamins and minerals.
To sum up, Hepatica Cordyceps is a valuable supplement recommended to athletes who are looking for a natural way to support their physical condition and endurance.
