Cordyceps Triple Extract Tincture – 60ml

Cordyceps Triple Extract Tincture

About

Cordyceps mushrooms are a fascinating genus of parasitic fungi known for their unique lifecycle and potential health benefits. Found primarily in the high-altitude regions of Asia, such as the Himalayan plateau, these mushrooms grow by infecting the larvae of insects, eventually consuming and replacing the host tissue. The most well-known species, Cordyceps sinensis, has been used in traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicine for centuries, believed to enhance stamina, boost the immune system, and improve overall vitality. Contemporary research is exploring the potential medicinal properties of cordyceps, such as their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer effects. Despite their somewhat eerie origin, cordyceps have garnered interest for their potential to support human health in various ways.

1. Species and Origin: Cordyceps is a genus of parasitic fungi known for infecting insects and arthropods. The most well-known species, Cordyceps sinensis, originates from the Himalayan regions, particularly in Tibet and Bhutan.

2. Appearance: These mushrooms have a distinctive appearance, often characterized by their elongated, club-like fruiting bodies, which can vary in colour from orange to brown.

3. Traditional Use: Cordyceps has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. It is often praised for its potential benefits in boosting energy, enhancing athletic performance, and supporting respiratory health.

4. Active Compounds: The mushroom contains bioactive compounds such as cordycepin and polysaccharides, which are believed to contribute to its health benefits.

5. Modern Applications: In contemporary wellness, Cordyceps are used in supplements and herbal remedies aimed at improving stamina, reducing fatigue, and enhancing immune function.

6. Cultivation: Due to high demand and difficulty in harvesting wild Cordyceps, they are often cultivated in controlled environments using substrates that mimic their natural habitat.

7. Research: Scientific studies are ongoing to explore the potential health benefits of Cordyceps, though more research is needed to fully understand its effects and confirm its efficacy.

8. Precautions: While generally considered safe, it’s important for individuals, especially those with specific medical conditions or those who are pregnant, to consult healthcare professionals before using Cordyceps supplements.

Why is Triple Extraction Better than Just Hot Water Extraction?

Hot Water Extraction (Single Extraction)

• Only extracts water-soluble compounds like beta-glucans and hericenones.
• Misses out on the fat-soluble erinacines and other bioactive compounds.

Dual Extraction (Water + Alcohol)

• Water Extraction: Pulls out beta-glucans and polysaccharides for immune support.
• Alcohol Extraction: Captures erinacines, sterols, and triterpenes, which are essential for brain health and nerve repair.
• Ensures full-spectrum potency, making the tincture far more effective for neurological health, cognitive function, and immune support.

Triple Extraction ( All the above steps plus a third ultrasonic extraction and distillation)

The left over mushrooms from the above steps are then put through third extraction by alcohol under ultrasonic pressure and then distilled to obtain a hyper extracted solution.

Triple Extraction & Why is it Better than a Dual Extraction?

This is where our tinctures differ from the above and nearly every other tincture offered both online and offline.

We process our alcohol extraction a second time by Vacuum distilling it into a highly concentrated form – this means that there are vastly more compounds in our tinctures than just a standard dual extracted tincture.

With more of the important eranacines, sterols and triterpines in each and every tincture we sell, you are getting a vastly superior supplement to help with all your health requirements and needs.
