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

How to Incorporate Cordyceps into Your Wellness Routine:

Cordyceps, a versatile tonic herb, can be integrated into your daily routine to support your well-being goals.* Here are a few suggestions:

• Morning or Midday: Consider taking Cordyceps in the morning or midday to support energy levels throughout your day.*
• Before Activity: Take Cordyceps before physical activity or mentally demanding tasks.*
• With Other Tonics: Explore combining Cordyceps with other adaptogens or tonic herbs to create a personalized wellness regimen.*

Take as desired: consume on a continuous basis to develop the natural tonic and adaptogenic benefits that build over time.* Some benefits are immediate and some results require consumption over several days and weeks to accomplish.* A good tonic cycle is 45-90 days of a tonic adaptogen which will generate lasting health changes.*

Shake gently: secure the lid and turn the bottle over back-and-forth 3-5 times to evenly distribute the tincture. Do not over-shake as the vigorous mixing of air with the extract will oxidize and damage many of the necessary constituents for required dosage and potency.

By mouth: hold the liquid under the tongue for 60-90 seconds and then swallow the rest of extract; doing so allows digestion to begin in the mouth and will take advantage of the activated multi-step extract so that many of the constituents will bypass digestion and enter the body through the mouth and throat.*

Mix with water: squirt the drops or entire droppers into 2-4 oz. of water that is under 120*F. Water that is cool to lukewarm temperature is best to preserve the volatile and fragile constituents from being damaged and denatured which will reduce the potency of the extract.* Sip slowly to allow absorption in the mouth and throat.* This method makes it easier to become accustomed to the extract and to take larger doses of several different tinctures at once in a tonic program.*

For maximum potency: regularly consume the tincture within a period of 45 days; after 45 days of continuous consumption the extract may begin to gradually lose potency requiring a larger dosage to achieve similar benefit.* A bottle will generally last 10-30 days depending on dosage and concurrent supplementation programming.*
