What is Cordyceps?
Cordyceps is a genus of parasitic fungi that feed off the larvae of insects. There are many species throughout the world. Cordyceps militaris naturally occurs in the wild in The Netherlands; its Dutch name translates to caterpillar killer. Cordyceps penetrates the body of hidden and buried butterfly and moth pupae. The dark orange to reddish fruiting body grows from the host pupa to a height of around 2 – 6 cm. Cordyceps militaris fruiting bodies can also be cultivated on grain substrates, so don't worry, no butterflies were harmed in the making of this product.

Before you start foraging Cordyceps mushrooms, please know areas with high levels of industrial pollution or natural sources of heavy metals in the soil lead to high levels of heavy metal contamination. Foodsporen® Cordyceps Liquid Tincure offers a pure, potent product. All Foodsporen® extracts are standardized to a remarkable 30% polysaccharides (PSP)

What is Cordyceps good for?
For centuries, Cordyceps has been used in traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine to support easy respiration, enhance energy levels and libido. Inhabitants of the Himalayan regions used the fungi as a tonic to support strenuous, high-altitude activities. Through clinical trials, Cordyceps, specifically the bioactive component cordycepin, has shown useful for increasing oxygen uptake and supporting exercise endurance. Cordyceps contains antioxidants, cordycepin, adenosine, and immune-modulating beta-glucan polysaccharides, among other nutrients.

Unfortunately, current EU legislation prohibits us from making claims that may suggest medicinal properties of mushrooms or herbs. Although traditional Chinese medicine has existed for thousands of years, has been tested on numerous patients and recognized for its immune support and cognitive health potential, we cannot mention effects confirmed by current scientific research. Instead, we refer you to the following detailed sources of information on mushrooms, available publicly online:

Cordyceps sinensis vs Cordyceps militaris
Though Cordyceps sinensis is the most famous and, in traditional Chinese medicines, the most frequently used member of the Cordyceps genus, studies show that the fruiting bodies and mycelium of Cordyceps militaris contain much higher concentrations of cordycepin.

How long does it take for Foodsporen® Cordyceps to work?
If you've never taken adaptogenic mushrooms, it could take up to three weeks to experience Codyceps' immunomodulating and lung-supporting potential.

What is the recommended dosage of Foodsporen® Cordyceps Liquid Extract?
Take half a pipette (1/2 ml) twice a day. Spread intake over the day for maximum bioavailability. Do not take with carbonated beverages or medication. For optimal absorption, drip the liquid tincture under the tongue. Tinctures can also be added to your favorite drinks, smoothies, coffee, or meals. Please consult your doctor or immunotherapy specialist before exceeding the recommended daily dose. Your doctor or immunotherapy specialist can ensure that Cordyceps and the dosage suit your needs.

What's the difference between Foodsporen® capsules and liquid extracts?
It all comes down to a different way of taking the same powerful extract. All Foodsporen mushroom extracts undergo a triple extraction method using alcohol, hot water, and ultrasonic sound frequencies to achieve maximum potency. Foodsporen® liquid extracts are highly concentrated, requiring only a small amount of alcohol, so the amount you consume is minimal. For production of the capsules, water and alcohol are evaporated during the extraction process. This leaves behind a concentrated, alcohol-free extract. If you are sensitive to small amounts of alcohol, consider purchasing the capsule variant instead.

What time of the day should I take Foodsporen® Cordyceps?
Consistency is more important than exact timing to unlock Cordyceps's full immunomodulating potential and lung health-supporting benefits. A regular daily dose helps maintain nutrient levels in your bloodstream at an optimal level. Add Foodsporen® Cordyceps to your daily routine to continually support your body's immune defense system.

What are the possible side effects of taking Foodsporen® Cordyceps?
Functional mushroom products are generally considered safe for consumption. For most healthy individuals, Cordyceps is well tolerated. If you have any questions or concerns, please consult your doctor or immunotherapy specialist before use. Common contraindications may apply if you are taking blood thinners or insulin medication or have an immune system disorder. If you are currently on medication, have surgery planned, have health or medical conditions, are pregnant or breastfeeding, we strongly advise you consult with your doctor or immunotherapy specialist before incorporating Foodsporen® Cordyceps into your daily routine.

Does Foodsporen® Cordyceps Liquid Tincture contain filler or mycelium grain?
Foodsporen® only uses the fruiting bodies for each of its products. The products do not contain fillers or mycelium on grain. Foodsporen® Cordyceps extract contains organic fruiting body extracts with an 8:1 concentration. It took 8 grams of dried mushrooms to produce 1 gram of the extract used in this product.

Foodsporen® Triple Extraction Method
Foodsporen® utilizes a triple extraction method to harness the range of immune defense system benefits. When it comes to mushrooms, beneficial compounds are primarily soluble in alcohol (such as triterpenes and similar compounds) and in water (such as 1,3 1,6 beta-glucans). To create a balanced and potent product, Foodsporen® combines alcohol and water extraction with the ultrasonic sound frequency extraction technique. This triple extraction method follows strict scientific guidelines, utilizing optimal alcohol percentages, temperatures and extraction duration. Foodsporen® offers high-quality products that align with their commitment to quality and effectiveness.

Where should I store Foodsporen® Cordyceps Liquid Extract?
It is not necessary to store Foodsporen® products in the refrigerator. Foodsporen® products are packaged in high-quality MIRON violet glass. The packaging materials are designed to protect and preserve polysaccharide immunomodulators, nootropic compounds, antioxidants and other nutrients in Cordyceps. Store away from direct sunlight at room temperature; there's no need to worry about temperature fluctuations.
