Cordyceps Militaris is a species of fungus in the family Cordycipitaceae, and the type species of the genus Cordyceps. Cordyceps is a genus of parasitic fungi that grows on the larvae of insects. When these fungi attack their host, they replace its tissue and sprout long, slender stems that grow outside the host’s body. The remains of the insect and fungi have been hand-collected, dried and used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for centuries to treat fatigue, sickness, kidney disease and low sex drive.
Supplements and products containing Cordyceps extract have become increasingly popular due to their many purported health benefits.
Although Cordyceps Militaris is found in East Asia, it is difficult to find in the wild due to its rarity. Thus, many investigators have been devoted to focus on the artificial cultivation using cutting-edge technology. Many biological and pharmacological functions of this fungus have been identified, such as its antioxidative, antihyperglycemic, antitumor, and immunomodulatory effects.
