200mg of cultured cordyceps stroma and 250mg of cordyceps fruiting body per capsule to enhance exercise performance, kidney health, metabolic function, and healthy aging.
200mg of cultured cordyceps mycelium and 250mg of cordyceps fruiting body extract per capsule deliver biological activity from the entire mushroom, including the unique active ingredients known as hericenones and erinacines.
Cordyceps is known to enhance exercise performance, kidney health, metabolic function, and overall vitality.
Medicinal mushrooms have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years and have gained popularity in recent decades as a natural health supplement in North America. In general, the active ingredients in medicinal mushrooms are recognized for their adaptogenic, antioxidant, and immune-enhancing properties. That being said, each species has been found to address different health concerns depending on the unique blend of beta-glucans, triterpenoids, ergosterols, and other active compounds.
Cordyceps militaris, commonly referred to as cordyceps, has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine for boosting energy due to its ability to increase ‘Qi’ and regulate kidney function. Interestingly, studies have confirmed that cordyceps fruiting body extract delivers health-promoting compounds from the full mushroom. Research also shows that cordyceps may aid in shielding the kidneys from drug-induced damage and lowering creatinine levels in cases of chronic kidney disease. More recent studies have examined cordyceps for its effects on stamina, muscle recovery, and diminished libido in older adults.
Human clinical studies have shown that supplementation with cordyceps improves VO2 Max during intensive exercise in non-trained athletes after just 4 weeks. This benefit is believed to occur because cordyceps increases ATP production and reduces inflammation, leading to enhanced physical performance.
Animal studies suggest that cordyceps may contribute to healthy aging. For example, supplementation with cordyceps has extended lifespan in mice and fruit flies, enhanced memory, improved reproductive function, and increased antioxidant capacity in aged mice. Additionally, multiple animal studies indicate that the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions of cordyceps may positively influence metabolic health by regulating lipid levels, improving insulin sensitivity, and aiding in weight balance.
Cyto-Matrix Cordyceps provides 200mg of cultured cordyceps mycelium and 250mg of cordyceps fruiting body extract per capsule to offer health benefits from the entire mushroom. The fruiting body is the reproductive structure of the mushroom, whereas the mycelium is the vegetative body of the mushroom. Although both the fruiting body and the mycelium perform different functions and have different structures, both contain biologically active compounds.
Cyto-Matrix offers a number of encapsulated mushroom formulas as well as a powdered mushroom blend, Mycelium Matrix, to provide practitioners and patients with targeted therapeutic options. All of Cyto-Matrix encapsulated mushroom products include a blend of both fruiting body extracts and mycelia from leading industry suppliers to ensure the highest quality and delivery of active ingredients. Specifically, the fruiting body extraction utilizes the industry standard of high performance liquid chromatography- ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) for identification and processing. The mycelia are grown in an environmentally conscious practice on certified organic, gluten-free, whole grain oats.
