History of Cordyceps Sinensis

Cordyceps Sinensis, also known as "Winter Worm, Summer Grass", is a rare and exotic medicinal mushroom known in China for centuries. Two thousand years ago in the Himalayan Mountains of Tibet, local herdsmen noticed the unusual vigor of their yaks grazing on Cordyceps.

The cap-less mushroom they found was eventually recognized as a natural wonder.

It has been used in traditional Chinese medicine as a cure-all. Chinese use it to heal lung, heart and kidney diseases, to treat fatigue, cancer as well as male and female sexual dysfunction, to relieve pain, to enhance overall health, and to promote longevity.

Due to its rarity, and legendary efficacy against a variety of health conditions, Cordyceps has held, and continues to hold, a highly esteemed position in the vast ranks of Chinese herbal remedies.
