Cordyceps Extract Capsules (60)

Cordyceps extract capsules providing 400mg of organic Cordyceps sinensis (CS-4) mycelium extract per capsule.

Cordyceps has a long history of traditional use and remains one of the most studied mushroom species today.

Traditionally, Cordyceps has been associated with vitality, stamina, resilience and overall wellbeing, contributing to its longstanding use in traditional wellness practices.

Produced using hot water extraction and selected for quality, traceability and species-appropriate compound profile.

Manufactured in Estonia under controlled production conditions in accordance with EU food supplement standards.

Ingredients

Cordyceps sinensis (CS-4) mycelium extract*
Capsule shell: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC)

*Certified organic (EE-ÖKO-03).

Extraction & Standardisation

6:1 hot water extract.

Standardised to:
Polysaccharides ≥25%
Mannitol ≥10%
Adenosine ≥0.38%

These compounds form part of the mushroom’s natural chemical profile.

Standardisation reflects measurable marker compounds present within the finished extract.

Extraction markers describe the quantified composition of the extract. Standardisation refers to analytical measurement and does not imply specific physiological effects.

Naturally Occurring Compounds

Cordyceps sinensis (CS-4) mycelium extract contains a range of naturally occurring constituents identified through batch testing.

These include:

• Polysaccharides
• Adenosine
• Mannitol
• Cordycepin
• Ergosterol
• Ergothioneine

Understanding These Compounds

Polysaccharides
Complex carbohydrates naturally found in mushrooms and commonly used as marker compounds when assessing extract composition and consistency.

Adenosine
A naturally occurring nucleoside found throughout nature and within every living cell. It is involved in cellular signalling and energy-transfer processes throughout living organisms.

Mannitol
A naturally occurring sugar alcohol found in fungi and plants that contributes to the characteristic composition of Cordyceps species.

Cordycepin
A naturally occurring nucleoside analogue associated with Cordyceps species and commonly referenced when characterising Cordyceps extracts.

Ergosterol
A naturally occurring fungal sterol that forms part of the mushroom’s cellular structure and is commonly used as an analytical marker in fungal materials.

Ergothioneine
A naturally occurring sulphur-containing amino acid derivative found in mushrooms and other organisms, contributing to the distinctive chemical profile of fungal species.

Nutritional Information

Per capsule:
Cordyceps extract – 400mg

Per daily serving (2–3 capsules):
800–1200mg Cordyceps extract

Understanding Standardisation

Cordyceps extracts are often compared using polysaccharide percentage alone. However, Cordyceps naturally contains additional compounds such as adenosine and mannitol that contribute to its characteristic profile.

This extract is selected for balanced standardisation and species-appropriate markers rather than a single headline number.

The 6:1 hot water extraction method preserves water-soluble compounds naturally present in CS-4 mycelium.
