Organic Cordyceps
Powder

bundle

Organic cordyceps powder (Cordyceps sinensis, caterpillar mushroom). The fruiting body is gently dried at a low temperature to preserve its enzymes, then finely ground for optimal absorption, resulting in a raw powder containing the full nutrient spectrum of the mushroom. Sourced from the traditional region of Fujian. Vegan, laboratory tested, non-GMO, no additives. 2x100g powder

  • Natural full spectrum of cordyceps mushroom powder
  • From the fruiting body of the whole mushroom
  • Prime harvest: hand-picked from July–October for optimal nutritional value
  • Premium raw quality: gently dried below 40°C to expertly preserve nutrients
  • Finely and gently milled (to less than 0.125mm, according to the "shell-broken" method) for optimal absorption, including of the chitin skeleton of the mushroom
  • From the traditional growing region in Gutian County (600–700m above sea level) in Fujian
  • Pure ingredients, no additives, non-GMO, 100% vegan
  • All batches are tested for heavy metals in an independent laboratory

Finest Origin - Highest Grade

  • From the fruiting body of the entire mushroom
  • Harvested by hand between July and October for the highest possible content of nutrients
  • Premium raw food: particularly gentle drying below 40°C to preserve all its nutrients
  • Fine and gentle grinding (less than 0.125mm, so-called "shell-broken" process) for optimal absorption of all ingredients, including from the mushroom's chitin skeleton
  • From the traditionally best-known regions for functional mushrooms in Gutian County (600–700m above sea level), Fujian: a naturally idyllic location surrounded by wooded mountains
  • Organic cultivation in an untouched, protected environment with EU organic certification

How are we different?

Our functional mushrooms are sourced from the renowned mushroom-growing region of Gutian County (600–700m above sea level), in Fujian, China. The wealth of knowledge passed down through Chinese tradition for over 2000 years regarding the benefits and cultivation of these mushrooms is truly exceptional. Today, Chinese cultivators produce the most potent mushrooms, having refined their cultivation methods to the point where the cultivated mushrooms rival their wild counterparts. Our partner farm is certified organic according to EU standards and prioritises natural and traditional cultivation techniques without pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. The mushrooms are grown to full maturity and hand-picked as their content of bioactives reaches its peak, between July and October.

Mushrooms are composed of the fruiting body, which typically appears above ground, and the mycelium underneath. The most important compounds in functional mushrooms are concentrated within the fruiting body, but due to mycelia being faster and easier to cultivate, products derived from the mycelium are common despite being of lesser value. Our mushroom powders and extracts are exclusively made from the entire fruiting body (including the stalk), preserving the valuable compounds in each mushroom.

In contrast to extracts, which can lose some of their nutritional value during processing, powders contain the full spectrum of nutrients. To ensure that these nutrients are optimally bioavailable, our powder is gently ground according to the "shell-broken" method to a size of less than 0.1mm. This milling process breaks open the difficult-to-digest cells of the mushroom and makes their contents directly bioavailable.

Cordyceps

Cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis, Scarlet Caterpillarclub, Dōng Chóng Xià Cǎo)

The cordyceps is a particularly rare and valuable mushroom. This mushroom grows mostly in elevations of 3000m or more about sea level in the highlands of Tibet. Yak shepherds in the region discovered that the mushroom, which the yaks would consume while grazing, increased the vitality and resilience of the animals. Cordyceps have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for almost 1500 years since then.

In contrast to many other fungi, the cordyceps does not grow on wood, but rather is a parasite of certain types of caterpillars. The cordyceps mummifies its host and a long brown mushroom grows out of the caterpillar's head which itself looks a bit like a caterpillar, hence the name "caterpillar mushroom." Nowadays, however, cordyceps are mostly cultivated in special substrates or nutrient solutions without caterpillar hosts.

Cultivation & Processing

Our functional mushrooms are sourced from the renowned mushroom-growing region of Gutian County (600–700m above sea level), in Fujian, China. The cultivation of mushrooms is an age-old tradition in the region, as is reflected by the unparalleled quality of these mushrooms. The fertile land, sophisticated substrates and the climate all contribute to a uniquely nutritious end product. Moreover, these pristine lands are protected by dense mountain forests, thus providing an ideal environment for the mushrooms to thrive. Our untreated mushrooms are certified organically grown according to EU standards. They are grown to full maturity and hand-picked at the peak of their vitality, between July and October.

The mushrooms retain their raw quality as a result of gentle drying at temperatures below 40°C. This process preserves the delicate enzymes and potent bioactives of the mushrooms. To ensure that these nutrients are bioavailable, the dried mushrooms are then gently milled. Thanks to our use of the "shell-broken" method, the powder attains a fineness of less than 0.125mm, which ensures that the compounds within the cells as well as within the chitin skeleton of the mushroom are optimally available for absorption. The powder contains the full richness of enzymes, vitamins, minerals and trace elements of the whole fruiting body of the mushroom.
