The problem of Cordyceps, why is Cordyceps not effective?

In the winter season, many people like to use Cordyceps sinensis as a tonic, here is a talk about the efficacy and selection method of Cordyceps.

Top 10 Benefits. Cordyceps sinensis is a traditional precious medicinal tonic in China, which is flat and sweet, and has the functions of tonifying the lungs and kidneys, relieving cough, benefiting deficiency and nourishing essence.

According to clinical studies, Cordyceps sinensis has ten major functions: antibacterial, immunomodulatory, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, nourishing the kidney, increasing adrenal cortisol content, anti-arrhythmia, anti-fatigue, expectorant and asthmatic, sedative and hypnotic.

It is suitable for lung and kidney deficiency, lack of essence and qi, cough and shortness of breath, spontaneous sweating and night sweats, soreness and weakness of waist and knees, impotence and spermatozoa, exertion, phlegm and blood, and other diseases. Because it is slow in nature and can replenish yin and yang, it is also a good tonic for the elderly and frail, post-illness and postpartum weakness.

How to choose. When buying, the first thing to pay attention to is the appearance and color. Cordyceps sinensis resembles a silkworm, about 3 5 cm long, dark yellow to yellow-brown on the surface, 20 30 rings, and 8 pairs of feet (4 pairs in the middle are more obvious).

The subbase is slender cylindrical, about 4 7 cm long, about about 1 cm in diameter, dark reddish-brown to tan on the surface, with fine longitudinal wrinkles, and slightly enlarged in the upper part. The section is white, the gas is slightly fishy, and the taste is slightly bitter. When choosing, it is better to have a complete body, plump and hypertrophied, yellow and bright on the outside, white on the inside, and a short sub-seat.

It should be noted that some empty shell Cordyceps sinensis is extracted after the active ingredients are extracted, and this cordyceps has less content and is not full in appearance. You can also break it down and take a closer look, if there is a foreign substance such as iron wire inserted into the Cordyceps, it is a counterfeit product. It is recommended to buy products from regular stores or reputable manufacturers.

How to eat. Taking Cordyceps sinensis to replenish deficiency should vary from person to person, or take it as a single drug, or use it in combination with other medicines. It can be used to fry water, stew soup, make medicinal food and take it, and can also make wine and tea.

For example, if you have low back pain and weakness, slippery semen in dreams, impotence**, tinnitus, forgetfulness and trance, you can use 2 grams of Cordyceps sinensis each time, at the end of the grinding, on an empty stomach, once a day in the morning and once in the evening; You can also use 5 grams of cordyceps, with eucommia, Chuanduan, etc., decoction to drink. People who are weak after illness, or who are prone to colds, chills and sweating, can often be stewed with Cordyceps and chicken, duck, beef, pig, mutton, etc. For example, use 5 10 pieces of cordyceps sinensis and a male duck, remove belly impurities, add a little rice wine, boil and eat, which can enhance physical fitness.

Or take 4 pieces of Cordyceps a day on an empty stomach after decoction.

Other products. Due to the high cost of natural cordyceps sinensis** and the shortage of natural resources, people have been prompted to research and explore artificial cultivation methods. The method of isolating strains on Cordyceps sinensis for in vitro culture has gradually matured, and there are many isolates obtained from Cordyceps, and some drugs or health care products and their strains on the market are genetically not related to Cordyceps, and many types of products produced by fermentation are not the best than real Cordyceps strain, so pay attention to the choice.

Cordyceps sinensis is not a western medicine, its effect is not immediate, some friends eat cordyceps, the effect may not be obvious, which is mainly determined by the following reasons.

It's not the right way to eat

The nutrients of Cordyceps sinensis are not resistant to high temperatures, and if they are stewed at high temperatures for a long time, they will lose a lot of nutrients, and the effect will be much worse.

Eating too little

Daily nourishment, eat 1-3 cordyceps a day, and insist on eating for more than 15 days, the body can have feedback. Some friends eat 1 stick every 5 days, and they eat it intermittently, and the effect is certainly not as good as eating it every day.

No whole root is eaten

Cordyceps herbs are peaceful, but the grass is mainly yin, and the insect body is mainly yang, so the grass and the insect body must be eaten together to make up for both yin and yang. If you only eat grass alone, or eat insects alone, the nourishing effect is naturally unsatisfactory.

Absorption and digestion are different

Some people digest well and can absorb the nutrients of Cordyceps, while some people have poor digestion and cannot absorb many nutrients.

Fake cordyceps may be bought

There are some unscrupulous traders on the market who confuse the concept and sell fake Cordyceps sinensis such as Cordyceps sinensis and Xinjiang Cordyceps, which not only have no tonic effect, but may also be harmful to health.

Looking at the appearance, Cordyceps sinensis is composed of two parts, one is the insect body, and the other part is the grass head. The insect body has a mouth, feet, eyes, etc., and retains the morphology of the larvae of Cordyceps bats, which is completely different from the larvae of other families and genera, with only 8 pairs of feet, the middle 4 pairs being the most obvious, and the head 3 pairs and the tail 1 pair are not prominent.

You may have bought a fake, your physique is very poor, you get sick often, and exercising more is very helpful to your body. I used to be the same, I haven't been sick for a year since I went to the police academy to train every day, and there are many reasons for it because I didn't exercise.

Cordyceps
