Hongos para la respiración y la resistencia

It is the point during exercise where your breathing rate stops rising gradually and starts climbing sharply. A higher threshold means you can work harder before that happens. In the Hirsch 2017 trial, three weeks of daily supplementation containing Cordyceps militaris was associated with a higher one, along with a longer time to exhaustion.

No, and this page is not about that. These are foods taken for exercise tolerance and general wellbeing. If you have a diagnosed respiratory condition, the people to speak to are your doctors, and nothing here should factor into that.

Not really. In the trial, a single dose before exercise did nothing at all; the effect came after three weeks of daily use. Treat it as a habit rather than something you take thirty minutes before training.

No. We sell Cordyceps militaris, which is farmed and harvested as a fruiting body. The caterpillar fungus is Cordyceps sinensis, a different species that costs more per gram than gold. That distinction matters on this page, because the trial most often cited against Cordyceps was run on sinensis.

Because it has the longest documented record of any mushroom we sell for exactly this use. Dioscorides catalogued it in the first century and it held its place in European apothecary practice for fifteen hundred years, prized above all for the chest and the breath.

In the morning. Nothing about it is sedating and most people find it does nothing useful taken late.
