Cordyceps Tincture
Introducing our SMCO Dual Extract Cordyceps Mushroom Tincture crafted from our premium Cordyceps militaris mushrooms, grown with precision and care right here on our farm!
Why Cordyceps?
For centuries, Cordyceps has been revered in Traditional Chinese Medicine for its vitality-enhancing and adaptogenic properties. Modern science has proven its powerful bioactive compounds, including:
Cordycepin (3’-deoxyadenosine):
Known for its ability to increase cellular energy (ATP) production, supporting endurance and reducing fatigue – a key reason it’s favored by athletes and runners.Polysaccharides (beta-glucans):
Support immune modulation and exhibit antioxidant properties, protecting cells from oxidative stress.Ergosterol:
Acts as a precursor to Vitamin D2 and shows anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities.Adenosine:
Contributes to improved oxygen utilization and vasodilation, enhancing blood flow and stamina.Sterols & Glycoproteins:
Support cholesterol balance and healthy immune system signaling.
Key Benefits:
Enhanced Athletic Performance
Studies show Cordyceps increases VO₂ max (maximum oxygen uptake), supporting stamina, lung capacity, and recovery after exertion. [Chen S. et al., 2010]Immune System Modulation
Its polysaccharides and glycoproteins regulate immune response, helping your body defend against pathogens without overstimulation.
Anti-Inflammatory Support
Cordycepin and ergosterol reduce systemic inflammation markers, benefiting joint health and overall resilience.
Hormonal Balance & Libido
Traditionally used as a tonic to support healthy testosterone levels and libido in both men and women, attributed partly to adenosine and cordycepin.
Respiratory Health
Cordyceps supports bronchial and lung function, improving oxygen utilization at the cellular level – ideal for those with respiratory strain or for high-altitude training.
Our Difference: At Southern Mushroom Company, our commitment to quality extends to our meticulous extraction process for our Cordycep Extract, where we employ both alcohol and water extraction methods to harness the full spectrum of beneficial compounds. The hot water extraction pulls out water-soluble polysaccharides, particularly beta-glucans, which are known for immune modulation and antioxidant support. Meanwhile, the alcohol extraction isolates fat-soluble compounds like cordycepin (3’-deoxyadenosine), which boosts ATP production for energy and endurance, and ergosterol, which has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Alcohol also extracts adenosine, which supports healthy blood flow and oxygen utilization, and other sterols and glycoproteins that are not readily released in water alone. By combining both methods, dual extraction ensures a full-spectrum tincture that captures all the beneficial compounds Cordyceps offers, delivering maximum potency and bioavailability in every dose.
How to Use: For optimal results, take our Cordycep Extract once daily, 1-2 droppers full. It can be conveniently mixed into your favorite beverage or taken directly. As with any dietary supplement, consistency is key to experiencing its full benefits.
Our Cordycep Mushroom Extract is free from additives and fillers, ensuring purity and potency with each serving.
