Cordyceps sinensis is considered a medicinal mushroom
that increases energy, stimulates the immune system, and acts as an overall
tonic to the body. It is one of the more famous Chinese herbs, but has only
gained attention in the West over the last few decades.
Cordyceps or Cordyceps Sinensis is a rare
parasitic organism. It is natures cross marriage of the insect and plant
kingdom. The fungus mushroom has been found to be effective in curing lots of
illnesses including coughing, allergy, liver, lung and kidney dysfunction.
There are many reported cordyceps health benefits. Some
of these include:
1.
Cholesterol reduction
2.
Stimulation of the immune system
3.
Faster recovery from bronchitis and respiratory diseases
4.
Increased efficiency and stamina of the circulatory system
5.
Anti-tumour properties
6.
Liver protection and enhanced recovery from chemotherapy
7.

8.
A general body adaptogen, resulting in more energy, strength, and stamina
The reasons behind some of these benefits are still not
fully understood. Yet research has found some promising proof behind cordyceps
claims. A few of the helpful constituents found are:
1.
Sterols -
Alcohols of the steroid group. Believed to lower cholesterol, reduce the risk
of heart disease, and possibly have some anti-tumor properties.
2.
Polysaccharides - Complex carbohydrates made up of chains of sugars. Known to stabilize
blood pressure, have an effect on free radicals, and stimulate the immune
system.

Nucleosides - Organic molecules that are the converted into building blocks of the
genetic material DNA and RNA. Nucleoside drugs are sometimes used to treat
cancer.
One of the most useful things that Cordyceps sinensis
appears to do is the simple act of oxygenation. The fungus dilates the airways
in the lungs, resulting in more oxygen to the blood. Thus more oxygen reaches
every cell of the body, resulting in better cell function and greater energy
levels.
