Why we like the Cordyceps sinensis mushroom powder capsules from Tyroler Glückspilze

The Cordyceps sinensis mushroom powder contains all the ingredients of the Cordyceps sinensis (caterpillar fungus) in its natural composition.

After harvesting, the Cordyceps sinensis mushrooms are gently dried (at less than 35°C) and then ground ultra-finely. In technical terms, this grinding technique is also called the "shellbroken process".

This means that when the mushrooms are ground, the cell walls are broken open. This is necessary because mushrooms have very hard cell walls, which are made of chitin, which the human body cannot process. This shell-broken grinding is therefore important so that the body can absorb the ingredients of the mushroom.

About Cordyceps sinensis or caterpillar fungus

Modern scientists have analyzed its ingredients and confirmed numerous effects. In addition to vitamins and trace elements, the caterpillar fungus contains essential amino acids and high-quality polysaccharides.

In addition, ingredients such as cordycepin, ophicordin and galactomannan make this mushroom so incredibly interesting. Athletes also use them, as they are not banned as doping agents. Athletes in Asian cultures have long used cordyceps to increase energy and endurance.

In 1993, five world records in running were broken by the same team at the Chinese National Championships in Beijing. Ma Junren, the coach of this team, revealed when asked by reporters that his athletes owed their strength and endurance to the Cordyceps mushroom.

The effects of these mushrooms that are of interest to humans are documented in Chinese herbal books that are up to 2,000 years old. Cordyceps species, especially C. sinensis and C. militaris, are said to strengthen the life energy "Qi".

The genetic profile of our Cordyceps corresponds exactly to that of the wild-growing variety and is grown under conditions that it also finds in its natural habitat.

Distribution and habitat in nature: It grows exclusively on caterpillars of the genus Thitarodes in the plateaus of Tibet between 3,000 and 5,000 m.
