Effects of Cordyceps

Cordyceps sinensis is a precious Chinese herbal medicine. Starting from my country's Compendium of Materia Medica, traditional medicine has identified the medicinal value of Cordyceps sinensis. Entering the 21st century, with the rapid development of medicine, its application areas have become more and more extensive. Cordyceps sinensis can be seen from traditional Chinese herbal medicine to modern pharmaceuticals. Therefore, Cordyceps sinensis has played an important role in the development of modern medicine in my country. Let us learn about the role of Cordyceps sinensis.

The effects of Cordyceps sinensis. Although many people know about it, not everyone understands its effects. Most people may just know that eating Cordyceps sinensis is good for you, but they don’t know exactly where it benefits you. Therefore, when using Cordyceps sinensis as medicine, it is best for everyone to first be familiar with the effects of Cordyceps sinensis. Let's take a closer look at the effects of Cordyceps sinensis:

Regulate immune system function

The immune system is equivalent to the army in the human body. It resists tumors internally, removes aging and necrotic cell tissues, and fights infections by viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms externally. Mutated tumor cells may appear in the human body every day. A person with a normally functioning immune system can escape the fate of a tumor, but a person with a problematic immune system may develop a tumor. Cordyceps acts on the immune system like adjusting the volume to keep it at its optimal level. It can increase the number of immune system cells and tissues, promote antibody production, increase the number of phagocytic and killer cells and enhance their functions, but it can also reduce the functions of certain immune cells. The grass contains nutrients such as cordycepin, cordycepic acid and various amino acids, which have the effects of nourishing the lungs and kidneys, stopping bleeding and reducing phlegm, dilating the trachea, calming, resisting various bacteria, and lowering blood pressure.

Direct anti-tumor effect

Cordyceps sinensis extract has a clear inhibitory and killing effect on tumor cells in vitro. Cordyceps sinensis contains cordycepin, which is the main ingredient that exerts its anti-tumor effect.

Improve cell energy and fight fatigue

Cordyceps sinensis can increase the energy of the human body's energy factory - mitochondria, improve the body's ability to withstand cold, and reduce fatigue.

Regulate respiratory system function

Cordyceps sinensis has the effects of dilating bronchi, relieving asthma, removing phlegm and preventing emphysema.

Regulate kidney function

Cordyceps sinensis can alleviate kidney lesions caused by chronic diseases, improve renal function, and reduce the damage to the kidneys caused by toxic substances.

Regulate hematopoiesis

Cordyceps can enhance the bone marrow's ability to produce platelets, red blood cells and white blood cells.

Regulate blood lipids

Cordyceps sinensis can lower cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, increase high-density lipoprotein which is beneficial to the human body, and reduce atherosclerosis.

Other Benefits

Cordyceps sinensis also has direct antiviral effects, central nervous system regulation effects, and sexual function regulation effects. Cordyceps sinensis can play such a comprehensive health-care role on the human body, which is extremely magical and deserves the reputation of "immortal grass" since ancient times. In modern society, taking Cordyceps sinensis is not only a guarantee of physical health, but more importantly, it brings an extremely healthy quality of life. The anti-fatigue effect of Cordyceps sinensis. Fatigue is a very common phenomenon. It can be divided into two types: disease-related fatigue and non-disease-related fatigue. Generally speaking, as long as it is non-disease-related fatigue, the symptoms can be eliminated through sleep, exercise, entertainment, etc. But the fatigue caused by illness cannot be eliminated. We can only eliminate the symptoms through drug treatment. However, the discovery of Cordyceps sinensis not only plays a preventive role in disease-related fatigue, but also plays a preventive and therapeutic role in non-disease-related fatigue - after exercise or fatigue, a large amount of lactic acid and metabolic products will accumulate in the muscle tissue of the human body. Cordyceps sinensis can regulate the human endocrine system, accelerate blood flow, further promote the body's metabolic activities to return to normal, and quickly eliminate lactic acid and metabolic products, so that various serum enzyme indicators can quickly return to normal, thereby achieving the effect of quickly restoring the body's functions. Therefore, Cordyceps sinensis has anti-fatigue effects.

The above is an introduction to the effects of Cordyceps sinensis. Here we would also like to tell you that the medicinal and nutritional value of Cordyceps sinensis is worthy of recognition, but it is not suitable for excessive consumption at one time, especially for sick middle-aged and elderly patients. Because they have a weak constitution, if they take a large amount of nutrients at one time, it will cause further damage to the body. Therefore, the so-called "deficiency cannot be supplemented" is this reason.
