Not All Cordyceps Are The Same
There are many different kinds of Cordyceps in the Cordyceps family. Most of the Cordyceps supplements in the market are derived from Cordyceps Sinensis. Most of the cultivated Cordyceps Sinensis in the market are by liquid fermentation.
Liquid Fermentation involves the cultivation and harvesting of Cordyceps Sinensis Mycelium. Cordyceps Sinensis Mycelium refers to the vegetative part of the fungus, consisting of a network of fine, thread-like structures. No fruiting body is developed in the cultivation processes. As such, liquid fermentation cultivation results in only the vegetative part of the Cordyceps being delivered to the consumer. There is no fruiting body that the consumer may have believed to be consuming.
Cordyceps Militaris is another species within the Cordyceps family. Cordyceps Militaris is also known as caterpillar fungus and has a distinctive orange to reddish-orange fruiting body. The cultivation process includes solid substrate cultivation which results in the formation of actual fruiting body (Stroma) which are then harvested. With cultivated Cordyceps Militaris, the product is actually derived from the fruiting body rather than the vegetative end product of Cordyceps Sinensis.
Our Timo Cordyceps are derived from the cultivation of Cordyceps Militaris. Timo Cordyceps Militaris has 10 times more active ingredients ( Cordycepin & Adenosine) than wild Cordyceps Sinensis, and has the highest concentration of Cordycepin standardized minimum 0.4%.
