Symmetry Products with Cordyceps fungus: Extreme Fuel, Immunity

In Chinese medicine Cordyceps fungus is described as a very effective herb to support circulatory, respiratory, immune, sexual drive, as well as a host of other activities. It was also classified as a general health tonic because of cordyceps perceived capability to improve energy, stamina, appetite, endurance, and sleeping patterns. In tradition Chinese medicine cordyceps is used for the kidney and lungs meridians.

Cordyceps fungus has the ability to increase the ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) production in human cell's mitochondria, thus increasing the energy levels of people using it. It is especially good for people who are involved in athletics or enjoy vigorous sports.

Compounds found in cordyceps are classified as HDP "Host Defense Potentiators". These compounds include: hemicellulose, polysaccharides, polysaccharide-peptides, nucleosides, triterpeniods, complex starches, and other metabolites. Combinations of these compounds are now believed to target the human immune system as well as aid in neuron transmission, metabolism, hormonal balance and nutrient and oxygen transport. They support the development of lymphoid stem cells and other important body defense responses.

Chinese athletes who used Cordyceps in their athletic training program surprised everyone including sports authorities when they broke the 10,000 meter World track record in 1993.

Cordyceps can only be found in isolated places in southwestern China and, because of the harsh environment and very small production amounts, wild cordyceps is usually very expensive, up to $1,000 for 100 grams.

Cordyceps fungus is also known as: Cordyceps sinensis, Caterpillar Fungus, Dong Chong, Xia Cao Tochukas, Deer Fungus
