Cordyceps has been used in China for literally centuries and is considered the top herb for restoring energy and quality of life. It first came to the attention of Western athletes when Chinese athletes used it to break nine world records in the World Outdoor Track and Field Championships in Germany in 1993. On top of that, they also broke swimming records. As a result, cordyceps became legendary for increasing performance and became one of the top-selling sports supplements among elite competitive athletes. Now, more and more active people are discovering its powerful potential to promote energy, vitality, and stamina.
If you check out the studies you'll find that half of them reported no benefits while the other half found a whole slew of positives. Most of the studies were perfprmed on elderly individuals and may have had some influence by manufacturers of cordyceps.
There was a more recent study published that revealed some interesting facts on cordyceps, but I can't find it. In the study, they used a specific form of cordyceps in conjunction with a blend to create a synergy that resulted in amazing results.
Anyone have any personal feedback or results?
