Cordyceps
sinensis, also known as "Winter Worm, Summer
Grass", is a rare and exotic medicinal mushroom known in
China for centuries. Two thousand years ago in the Himalayan
Mountains of Tibet, local herdsmen noticed the unusual vigor of
their yaks grazing on Cordyceps.
The cap-less mushroom they found was
later recognized as a
natural wonder.

Most people in the West have come to know this once rare herbal
medicine in only the last twenty years or so, thanks to the
advancement in modern cultivation technology. Those techniques have
dramatically lowered the cost of consumption, and have allowed for
more in-depth research into Cordyceps' healing potential.
Today, modern scientific research has proven what Chinese
practitioners have noted for centuries. Numerous clinical trials have
proceeded to scientifically prove that Cordyceps works well in
treating and healing a myriad of medical problems.
