Organic Cordyceps militaris Mushroom Powder is an Australian Certified Organic Mushroom powder that has traditionally been used and recorded as far back as the Tang Dynasty, for enhancing kidney function and improving stamina. The Cordyceps militaris is the cousin of C. sinensis and is growing in popularity due to the similar chemical capabilities and medicinal properties. Cordyceps is often used as an overall rejuvenator for energy whilst also recovering from illnesses. The active component of Cordyceps is Cordycepin which has been shown to act as a free radical scavenger as well as demonstrating anti-tumor and anti-viral activities.
