END OF STORY! - Finding a good cordyceps product is akin to looking for a needle in a haystack. Firstly, you won't find ANY genuine 'Cordyceps Sinensis' products out there because Cordyceps Sinensis is the wild mushroom form that grows out of dead caterpillars, so is as rare as truffles, and sells for $10,000 per gram! The beneficial effects of Cordyceps Sinensis are considered to be due to the active compound called cordycepin. Due to the impracticality and exorbitant expense of harvesting Cordyceps Sinensis in the wild from dead caterpillars, ALL cordyceps used within supplements is synthesized; wherein, there are different processes by which this is carried out resulting in different strains accordingly. IMO you want to avoid 'Cordyceps CS-4', which is grown within vats of liquid and is rubbish. It contains hardly any of the beneficial therapeutic constituents. In short, it is useless and does not work. Personally I also choose to avoid ALL products sourced from China. These are CS-4 and/or are grown on wood chippings and extracted leaving toxic solvent residues plus heavy metal contamination. I have had Chinese products independently tested and the results were shockingly high levels of lead and other heavy metals. In short, avoid! After doing some research I discovered that without a doubt the best type of Cordyceps is the 'Cordyceps Militaris'. This is grown using brown rice and in fact produces by far the highest concentration of the desired active compound cordycepin; where in fact Cordyceps Militaris contains much higher amounts than as contained within the wild Cordyceps Sinensis! Furthermore, it is the Cordyceps Militaris form specifically which has shown the benefits via the most recent clinical studies. So, having determined that it is specifically the Cordyceps Militaris iteration that is without a doubt the best form, I went about tracking down a reputable supplier, and in short I came across Paul Stamets, who is probably the world's foremost mycologist. And this is his product. So if you want one of the best Cordyceps products in the world as of right now, here it is πŸ˜ƒ Dont' misinterpet the fact that Cordyceps Militaris is grown out of brown rice as meaning that this product is 'rice powder', because it is not. 1.5g of powder provides 0.825g of pure Cordyceps Militaris mycelium. I take this daily and it is amazing! Personally, I find that 1.5 grams of powder per dose is best. I take this 2 times daily, however, I am an athlete so desire more energy than the average person. Also, I don't drink ANY coffee, tea, or any other caffeine sources. I take cordyceps instead and have all day masses of energy. When I train legs down the gym I take an extra dose 1 hour before training and I have so much energy it is incredible. Yesterday I banged out 5 sets of heavy squats then supersetted right into 5 sets of heavy leg press, the two exercises most people dread and avoid above all, and I was getting looks from the other people in the gym like "who the hell is this guy?" I could not help but smile and just had a huge grin on my face even whilst press the weights! Can't recommend this product highly enough! Review: One of the Best Cordyceps on the Market - Highly Recommend Host Defense - I've been taking Cordyceps since 2011 for energy and I still love it. My Naturopathic physician recommended Host Defense brand for it's quality. He said most Cordyceps brands are a waste of money because they are not correctly farmed or processed. I've always had a good experience with Host Defense mushrooms. I take this Cordyceps in the morning and afternoon, not because it keeps me awake at night, but because you don't experience the benefits while you're sleeping. You have to take it every day for a few weeks before you get the full effect. Then take the equivalent of 2-4 capsules per day, every day. I'm 69 years old and still going strong. Plenty of energy. Not a buzz. Just a natural long-term energy throughout the day. When I started feeling tired in the evening after many years of taking four capsules a day, I cut back to two capsules per day and felt much better. As it turned out, when I got older four capsules was giving me more energy than I needed and I was overdoing it--burning the candle at both ends just because I could. Now I'm taking two capsules a day and feel more balanced and natural. ## Features - Immune & Energy Support Supplement: This mushroom supplement supports healthy oxygen uptake, immune system function, and healthy kidney function* - Dietary Cordyceps Powder: Our dietary mushroom supplement with Cordyceps supports antioxidant activity and lung health for fitness performance and overall health* - About Host Defense: Host Defense Mushrooms was founded by renowned mycologist Paul Stamets; our mushroom mycelium is certified organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, and grown in the USA* - Powered by Mushroom Mycelium: Our organic mushroom mycelium is grown on organic brown rice substrate; third-party studies show that mushroom mycelium and fermented rice substrate support your health* - Cordyceps Mushroom Powder: As a dietary supplement, take a 1/2 teaspoon 1–3 times daily with food or on an empty stomach, or as recommended by your healthcare advisor ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07PJZ58BG | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #59,983 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #277 in Mushrooms Herbal Supplements | | Brand | Host Defense | | Brand Name | Host Defense | | Container Type | Jar | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 662 Reviews | | Diet Type | Vegan | | Dosage Form | Powder | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Highlight | Immune and Energy Support, Supports Healthy Kidney Function and Healthy Respiration, Cordyceps Mushrooms, 66 Servings | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Weight | 3.52 ounces | | Manufacturer | Host Defense | | Manufacturer Part Number | NPCS100G | | Material Features | Natural, Organic | | Model Number | NPCS100G | | Number of Items | 1 | | Package Information | Jar | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Boost Energy | | Special Ingredients | Mushrooms | | UPC | 633422300153 | | Unit Count | 3.5 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Host Defense - **Item Form:** Powder - **Item Package Quantity:** 1 - **Manufacturer:** Host Defense - **Package Information:** Jar ## Images ![Host Defense Cordyceps Powder, Immune & Energy Support, 3.5 oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71j3zfzGHML.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How do you store this after opening?
