Cordyceps Mushroom is native to China, and its fruiting body is grass-like in appearance. Tibetan herdsmen first discovered Cordyceps over a thousand years ago in the high plateaus of that region, thinking it was a type of grass. They noticed that when their sheep and yaks grazed on Cordyceps, they became stronger and healthier. Later, Chinese herbalists began to use Cordyceps for a host of human ailments. The mushroom was used as a cure-all, but was especially thought to be an aphrodisiac and a supplement for healthy male sexual function. Recently, however, Cordyceps has been shown to stimulate the immune system and contain antibacterial and antiviral properties. It has also been claimed that Cordyceps enhances blood circulation and can lower LDL cholesterol while raising beneficial HDL cholesterol. Cordyceps is still used in China as a support product for sexual function and as an energy booster. Chinese athletes use Cordyceps as a safe alternative to dangerous performance-enhancing drugs.
