Cordyceps sinensis, or more precisely, Ophiocordyceps sinensis, as this is the scientific name used for this species since 2007, is also known as caterpillar fungus or, more simply, cordyceps.
During the warmer months it grows like any other mushroom, but in the winter it becomes home to the larvae of certain species of butterflies. To survive, the fungus mummifies the insect, which it then feeds on. Cordyceps is naturally found in Tibet and Nepal at an altitude of three to five thousand meters above sea level.
This mushroom, discovered about one and a half thousand years ago by Himalayan shepherds, was quickly adopted by Chinese herbalists. Due to its rarity and properties, cordyceps was very expensive. In ancient China, only the emperor's courtiers and the nobility could afford it. In our time, these mushrooms are grown in bioreactors. Annual production is estimated at millions of tons, so now everyone can use their exceptional properties.
Cordyceps sinensis is a mushroom belonging to the Clavicipitaceae family. Today, cordyceps mycelium (mycelium) is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine due to its many beneficial properties, and is also sold as a dietary supplement that meets the requirements of the European Commission and the US Food and Drug Administration.
TIENS produces this exclusive dietary supplement using the most advanced biotechnology, which helps preserve the natural properties of the product. Cordyceps sinensis has long been recognized in Asian cultures for its biological activity. The fruiting body of Cordyceps sinensis contains active free amino acids, including lysine, glutamic acid, proline and threonine. The fruiting body is also rich in unsaturated fatty acids, which account for about 70% of all fatty acids. The most abundant is linoleic acid. The most active compounds in Cordyceps sinensis are adenosine and cordycepin, which play an important regulatory role in many metabolic reactions in the body's cells.
