Cordyceps

Support for Your Body's Energy Engine

Cordyceps works at the cellular level to fundamentally enhance your body's ability to produce and sustain energy. It's the tonic of true performance. Here’s how it helps:

• Supports Stamina & Athletic Endurance:*
  Aids the body's natural production of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), the universal energy currency your cells use for all physical output. More efficient ATP production supports greater endurance.
• Promotes Healthy Oxygen Utilization:*
  Traditionally used by high-altitude mountain dwellers, Cordyceps supports the body’s ability to take up and utilize oxygen efficiently, a cornerstone of cardiovascular performance and physical resilience.
• Aids Adrenal Health & Stress Resilience:*
  As a powerful adaptogen, Cordyceps nourishes the adrenal glands, helping to modulate the stress response and combat the deep fatigue that comes from overexertion.
• Supports Healthy Respiratory Function:*
  By supporting oxygen uptake and overall lung vitality, Cordyceps is a premier tonic for maintaining clear, strong, and healthy respiratory performance.

Have You Hit Your Performance Ceiling?

You know the feeling. You're deep into a run, a climb, a workout, or even just a demanding project, and you hit "the wall." Your lungs are burning, your muscles are screaming, and your energy flatlines. You have the will to push forward, but your body can't keep up. This is your performance ceiling. Cordyceps is the tool for raising that ceiling. It works by optimizing your body at the cellular level, helping your engine become more efficient with oxygen and fuel (ATP). It's about giving you the ability to go harder, for longer, and to recover with more vitality.*

Cordyceps is Ideal For:

• The Endurance Athlete: Runners, cyclists, swimmers, and anyone who needs to sustain high output over time.*
• The High-Altitude Adventurer: Hikers, mountaineers, and skiers looking to support their body's adaptation to thin air.*
• The Busy Professional or Performer: Who needs sustained mental and physical stamina to excel through long days.*
• Anyone Seeking a Non-Stimulant Energy Lift: Who wants to build true, foundational vitality, not just borrow it.*

Description

Cordyceps: Natural Support for Vitality and Endurance

If you are actively optimizing your well-being, Cordyceps, a unique mushroom with a fascinating history, can be a valuable addition to your toolkit. Renowned for its traditional use in supporting energy, stamina, and overall vitality, Cordyceps integrates into your daily routine.*

Our custom-batched, high-potency Cordyceps liquid extract is meticulously crafted to capture the essence of this remarkable fungus. Its diverse range of constituents, including polysaccharides, nucleosides, and sterols, work synergistically to support your body's natural processes.*

Upgrade Your Body's Engine

For centuries, Cordyceps was a legendary treasure, a rare mushroom growing above 15,000 feet in the Himalayan mountains, revered by athletes and warriors for its almost miraculous ability to enhance stamina and vitality. It wasn't until the 1990s, when record-breaking performances by elite Chinese runners were attributed to its use, that the West took serious notice.

Modern science has now revealed the secret to its power. Cordyceps works like a biological "engine tune-up," helping your body become radically more efficient in two key areas:

More Miles Per Gallon of Oxygen & Fuel

1. Oxygen Utilization: Cordyceps supports the lungs and the entire respiratory system, helping the body increase its efficiency in taking up and using oxygen. This is like installing a bigger, better carburetor.
2. ATP Production: Cordyceps contains unique compounds like cordycepin that support your cells' mitochondria in their creation of ATP—the pure energy that powers muscle contraction and every action you take. This is like getting higher-octane fuel.

When your body can use oxygen and create energy more efficiently, the result is a profound increase in stamina, a delay in fatigue, and an overall sense of powerful vitality.*

Don't just push through your limits. Raise them. Fuel your life at the cellular level.*

Batch Specs

We use outdoor lab-grown log-cultivated medicinal mushrooms, so that this supplement is tonic.* This means it is safer and easier-to-take for the long-term benefits.* Log cultivated medicinal mushrooms have many advantages; the main advantage of log cultivation being that one can harvest all parts of the mushroom for a high concentration of all constituents, especially the polysaccharides, while also including the acids which have their highest concentration in the mycelium.

Outdoor lab-grown log-cultivation also produces a consistent supplement that will easily work without any natural variances found in wild mushrooms that could impair potency, due to the attentive detail to cultivation in a controlled environment.

And lastly, outdoor lab-grown log-cultivation allows us to harvest medicinal mushrooms sustainably without overharvesting the wild biodiversity

We formulate using a variety of extraction techniques for multi-step potency which include:

• Artisan-formulated for Wholistic Effects and Benefits
• Harvesting at Times of Full Botanical Potency
• All Active Parts of the Mushroom are Included in the Formula
• Cold Processed Where Appropriate to Preserve Integrity of Fragile Constituents
• Dual Solvent: Water and Alcohol for 99.9% constituent content
• Activated for Easy Digestion
• Stabilized for Natural Preservation - No Preservatives
• Flash-steamed for Cracked Cell-walls to Release Chitin Bound Constituents

This formulation uses higher alcohol content for extraction, 45% percent by volume, so that all of the benefits can be used in health optimization.
