Cordyceps ( Cordyceps sinensis or Cordyceps militaris ) is a fascinating mushroom, revered for centuries in the high regions of the Himalayas and Asia. Its history dates back to Traditional Chinese Medicine, where it was reserved for the elite for its multiple uses in the quest for vitality and strength.

This rare mushroom is distinguished by its richness in bioactive compounds such as beta-glucans, nucleosides and cordycepin. These natural elements are often associated with practices aimed at improving endurance, strengthening energy balance and accompanying active routines.

Cordyceps, a true symbol of power and resilience, fits perfectly into a modern lifestyle, seeking to balance tradition and performance.
