What are they?
They are superior fungi that have been known since ancient times for their therapeutic properties. Indeed, they are called “medicinal fungi”.
Presenting the common factor of being macromycetes, or being large enough to be visible to the naked eye, they are historically used by Traditional Eastern Medicine as adjuvants for overall well-being and longer life, to modulate the immune system, increase resistance to diseases and to stressful factors, and as prevention and therapy for metabolic, cardiovascular, infectious, inflammatory chronic-degenerative, and neurodegenerative diseases.
International research has observed the remarkable biological activity of macrofungi. They control the lipid profile, blood glucose levels and insulin levels, protect the cardiovascular, hepatic, renal and lymphatic system, have adaptogenic, antidepressant and anxiolytic activity, besides antimicrobial, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. ß-glucans and ß(1,3/1,6)-D-glucans, important active ingredients that are present in medicinal macrofungi, are defined Biological Response Modifiers (BRM) because they increase immune system efficiency and prevent its excessive reaction (they stimulate and modulate the immune system).
What are their particular characteristics?
• Fungal strains are cultivated at specific altitudes.
• A patented cultivation process and solid state fermentation of powders ensure the maximum content of active ingredients, homogeneous lots and the absence of pollutants (heavy metals, pesticides, weed killers).
• Directly derived from the Tibetan strain (Cordyceps).
• Choice of fungal strains underpinned by scientific studies.
• Fungal strains are certified as 100% organic by USDA and EU Certified Organic, FDA registered and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) certified.
• Fungal strains are made in USA and subjected, lot by lot, to strict and complete analyses (chemical and microbial sterility) in highly accredited FDA certified laboratories.
• Fungal DNA strains are certified and verified by DNA sequencing performed by the U.S. National Institute of Health-National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Genebank.
• 100% organic, vegan and gluten free capsules.
