  • Description
  • Ingredients
  • Food supplement in the form of a hard capsule containing a standardised extract of Cordyceps mycelia containing min. 7% of cordycepic acid. Cordyceps is a mushroom that has been used for millennia in China.

    Do you want to rebalance your body, increase your energy levels and take care of your immunity? Reach for Cordyceps 1200 mg and check out the benefits of the Chinese hornwort, a parasitic mushroom from the Tibetan highlands.

    Chinese cocklebur(Latin:Cordyceps sinensis), also known as Dong Chong Xia Cao / winter worm, summer grass [6]), is a fungus that parasitises insects - or, more specifically, grows on the larvae of caterpillars. It is worth noting that with today's high demand,Cordycepsare grown on a microbial medium. This method of cultivation is much more environmentally friendly than harvesting wild mushrooms. The majority of clinical trials usingCordycepsare carried out precisely with cultured cordyceps. It is therefore assumed that it exhibits the same positive properties for the body ascordycepsgrowing on larvae.The name'cordyceps' comes from the Latin words cord (mace) and ceps (head).

    Cordycepshas been known for thousands of years, with the origins of its use dating back to ancient China.Food supplements most commonly use an extract of the mycelium (Latin: mycelium), which is the part of the mushroom made up of mycelia. Unlike the pericarp, this is the form permitted in the European Union. The most important active constituents of cordyceps include cordycepic acid (D-mannitol), polysaccharides and cordycepin [1,7].These substances are responsible for numerous properties of cordyceps that allow the body to restore balance. D-mannitol is considered one of the quality control markers and also one of the most important bioactive components of cordyceps. Polysaccharides are the most potent compounds responsible for the bioactivity of certain fungal species. They have immunomodulatory effects - affecting both the innate and adaptive human immune system [9]. Also, cordycepin shows regulatory effects on immune cells [10]. Therefore, it is believed thatcordycepscan support the body's immune function [1].

    Cordycepshave many beneficial uses for the body. Due to its adaptogenic and endurance- and strength-enhancing properties,it can speed up recovery.There are speculations that it has ergogenic, or performance-enhancing effects. The positive properties of Chinese Cordyceps on athletic performance began to be noticed after the 1993 World Athletics Championships, when the Chinese women's team broke many recordsattributing part of the success to the intake of cordyceps [1,2].

    Chinese cordyceps is also believed to haveantioxidantproperties and toenhance sexual and reproductive function[1]. It has been shown that taking Chinese cordyceps can increase libido and sexual activity and restore impaired reproductive function in both sexes [1].

    In addition, it has been shown to haveanti-fatigue and anti-stress effects. Interestingly, given that chronic fatigue is often accompanied by depressed mood,cordycepsmay also be helpful in offsetting symptoms of this type [1,3,4]. Theanti-ageing[5] andanti-hyperglycaemicpotential ofcordycepshas also been noted [1].Supplementation with cordyceps can therefore provide a number of benefits to the overall health of the body.

    Our supplement contains an extract of the mycelium of the Chinese mycelium (Cordyceps sinensis). It is one of the best described species of thecordycepsfamily in the literature with a long history of use. The product is standardised to min. 7% cordycepic acid. This means that 1200 mg of extract was obtained from 3600 mg ofCordyceps sinensismycelium. We recommend taking 2 capsules daily - one in the morning and one in the evening.

In the past few years my partner and I have

In the past few years my partner and I have really gotten into how much mushrooms are good for your health. Cordyceps have gotten very fashionable in the media but if you do your research, they really are superfoods, and this brand does them a service. Pros: Full spectrum caps and high-strength Good company pedigree Well priced for the quantity Cons: None The brand ============ I've not heard of OSAVI before, but from the research I've done they seem like a company that know their stuff. They have offices in the UK but I'm not entirely sure where they originate from given it says "manufactured in the EU for" and then gives a Polish address, which is fine, I just like to have transparency on location! All the ingredients will be sourced around the world, but they do test them all to certain standards and you can find their certifications on their site. The capsules ============ The vegetarian capsules are a good size, smooth and easy to swallow. They're just under the length of a 20p piece and just slide down with water, with no obvious taste or smell. They advise two capsules a day, one in the morning and one in the evening after a meal, meaning you get one month's worth. Cordyceps ============ There are many purported effects of the cordyceps fungus. Apparently people use it as an energy booster, an immunity and resistance booster and also an aphrodisiac too. It's always worth doing your research with these things just to ensure you know what you're taking. The company also seem to be backing the fact they may aid with nerve function, too. Mushrooms truly are amazing! Effectiveness ============ It's hard to quantify how much something helps you as a supplement, given as well usually you should wait atleast 3 months to fully benefit from them. My fungi-obsessed partner describe cordyceps like a "buff": it's like a passive effect that you can feel, but is almost imperceptible unlike hard-hitting things like coffee. For me, taking the cordyceps seems to have improved my overall energy levels (I have fibromyalgia). Caffeine helps my concentration, but this supplement seems to give a general all-over boost, especially in the morning with waking up naturally. It's like having a little bit more clarity earlier, although as always it's hard to isolate this effect as it has also been lighter out! I do though think my body is benefiting from them generally. I've had no notable side effects or digestive distress and I'm quite sensitive to a lot of foods so that's a huge plus for me too, with no acid reflux. Conclusion ============ Overall, I'd say these are worth it. It's good value to trial a month's worth, and I'm really pleased with how it's making me feel so far even just after a month of taking the full dose. Definitely advised and I like the brand already - I'll be looking into other supplements they do too!

Cordyceps is a type of mushroom that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries due to its potential health benefits, such as improving energy, endurance, and immune system function. One of the things I appreciate about Osavi Cordyceps is that it's vegan-friendly, which means it's suitable for people who follow a plant-based diet. It's also free from additives, preservatives, and artificial colors, which is a big plus in my book. In terms of effectiveness, I have noticed an improvement in my energy levels and overall well-being since I started taking Osavi Cordyceps. I usually take one capsule in the morning with breakfast, and it helps me stay focused and alert throughout the day. The only downside to this product is that it's a bit pricey compared to some other cordyceps supplements on the market.

These capsules from Osavi are of good strength and seem to be of good quality, as is the case with other Osavi products which I have taken. These medium-sized capsules are easy to swallow and I have not encountered any discernible aftertaste or undesirable side effects. Of course, it is much too early for me to be able to report on the immune-boosting effects nor, indeed, can I comment on the efficacy of Cordyceps as an aphrodisiac (chance would be a fine thing), but I can say that since taking it regularly I have experienced more energy. I take it with my morning coffee and it certainly gives me a boost and helps me get going. I have also noticed a big reduction in my usual hay fever symptoms.
