Say Hello to Cordyceps
Welcome to the next part of our exciting journey through the world of adaptogenic mushrooms. Today we shine a spotlight on a unique mushroom with an intriguing name - Cordyceps. Unlike regular mushrooms you might find in a pizza, Cordyceps is known for giving a natural energy boost!The Power of Cordyceps
Have you ever felt tired during the day, even though you got plenty of sleep the night before? Cordyceps might be just what you need. It's known for helping your body make and keep steady energy levels. No more feeling sluggish halfway through the day!Science Spotlight: How Cordyceps Works
On the science side, Cordyceps helps your body make more of a molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This ATP stuff is like the battery of your body, storing and supplying energy for all the things you do - run, play, think, or even just breathe.Benefits Beyond Energy
While Cordyceps is great for boosting energy, it does more than just that. Traditional medicine has used Cordyceps to help reduce fatigue and even increase strength. This mushroom is quite a champion, helping your body feel better and perform better!How Can I Use Cordyceps?
Adding Cordyceps to your routine is simple. It's available in various forms, like tea, powder, and capsules. You can sprinkle Cordyceps powder into your morning oatmeal or take a capsule as part of your daily vitamin routine.Remember: Safety First!
Even though Cordyceps is a natural substance, you should always talk to a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement. We want to make sure that Cordyceps brings you energy and vitality without causing any issues!Conclusion: Embrace the Energy
So, are you ready to let Cordyceps put a little more pep in your step? This super-mushroom might be the natural energy booster you've been looking for! Stay tuned for the next installment in "The Magic of Adaptogens Series," where we'll continue to reveal the remarkable world of adaptogenic mushrooms. Until then, enjoy the energizing benefits of Cordyceps!Related posts

Cordycepin, an active ingredient in the insect fungus Cordyceps militaris, is in a category of compounds that exhibit significant therapeutic activity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of cordycepin on cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle in A549 human lung cancer cells. MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxic effect of cordycepin on A549 cell growth. Apoptotic effect was observed using cell morphology, DAPI staining, and DNA fragmentation studies.

Cordycepin was separated successfully from Cordyceps militaris using extraction with a mixture of ethanol and water. Optimum temperature, composition of ethanol in water, solvent/solid ratio and pH of solvent were determined by a central composite design (CCD) with respect to extraction yield. The highest yield for cordycepin (96%) was predicted by the regression model and validated by comparison with the experimental results, showing good agreement.

A novel neutral exopolysaccharide (EPS-III) was isolated from culture broth of Cordyceps militaris (C. militaris). The EPS-III was a homogeneous polysaccharide with Mw of 1.56 x 10(3) kDa. The yield of EPS-III from culture broth was 123.2 +/- 3.1 mg/L and the sugar content was 93.32 +/- 0.87%. The backbone of EPS-III was mainly consisted of –>4)-alpha-D-Galp-(1–>, while –>3, 6)-alpha-D-Manp-(1–>, –>4)-alpha-D-Manp-(1–>, –>3)-beta-D-Galp-(1–> and –>3)-alpha-D-Glcp-(1–> were distributed in the backbone or in the branch chains. The EPS-III had helix structure when dissolved in weak alkaline solution. It also had branched and intertwined form on the surface. The inhibition of alpha-glucosidase significantly increased as the increase of purity of exopolysaccharides.

The fruiting body of Cordyceps militaris (L.) Link, a well-known traditional medicinal mushroom, has been used in Korea for a long time to maintain health and longevity. The present study evaluated the inhibitory effects of the fruiting body of Cordyceps militaris on the growth of the non-small cell lung cancer cell line, NCI-H460

Cordycepin (3′-deoxyadenosine) is a derivative of the nucleoside adenosine, differing from the latter by the absence of oxygen in the 3′ position of its ribose part. It was initially extracted from the rare parasitic fungus Cordyceps militaris and has now been synthesized.

The mycelial biomass, antioxidant activity and production of extra- and intra-cellular polysaccharides production [EPS, IPS] of Cordyceps militaris strains AG-1, PSJ-1 were evaluated under different submerged liquid culture (SLC) conditions. At 24 0 C mycelial biomass and polysaccharide production of AG-1, PSJ-1 was optimal using PVC media and static culture conditions.

Using fermented cordyceps powder Cs-4 as a substitute for natural cordyceps was benefit for life sciences. Therefore, it is of significance to investigate its main pharmacologically-active ingredients. In this work, fermented cordyceps polysaccharides with different molecular weights were isolated and purified. Various factors (i.e. extraction time, extraction power, and pH value) were investigated to obtain the response surface methodology values to most efficiently extract fermented cordyceps polysaccharides (FCP).
