Charge your biological batteries

Often dubbed the “energy mushroom,” Cordyceps has found its way into the routines of those looking to invigorate their day naturally. Imagine a mushroom that has captured the interest of athletes and adventurers alike, all seeking a vibrant alternative to conventional energy sources.

Whether you’re powering through a workout or tackling a busy day, Cordyceps invites you to discover its potential as a fun and intriguing addition to your wellness journey.

EASY AS A-T-P

Research has suggested that Cordyceps may influence the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the body's primary energy unit. Think of ATP as your body's batteries; the more charged they are, the longer you can perform activities. ATP is primarily produced in the mitochondria, which are the energy factories inside your cells.

Studies indicate that Cordyceps contains adenosine, a key component in ATP production. Additionally, certain research has looked into how Cordyceps might relate to immune support and energy levels. However, we make no health claims and further research is still required to fully understand Cordyceps mushroom.

RESEARCH

This study observed that Cordyceps militaris supplementation improved VO2 max and exercise tolerance, likely due to its influence on ATP production and overall energy metabolism, which enhances endurance and performance in high-intensity exercise (Hirsch et al., 2017).

Cordycepin from Cordyceps militaris was found to significantly inhibit NO production and directly suppress the kinase activity of AKT by interacting with its ATP binding site. This suggests cordycepin's role in modulating ATP-dependent pathways to exert anti-inflammatory effects (Yoon et al., 2015).

After three weeks of supplementation with a mushroom blend containing Cordyceps militaris, there was a significant improvement in VO2 max and time to exhaustion during high-intensity exercise, suggesting enhanced exercise tolerance (Hirsch et al., 2017).

In a study involving healthy elderly volunteers, supplementation with Cordyceps sinensis (Cs-4) for six weeks significantly increased VO2 max and anaerobic threshold, indicating improved aerobic capacity and respiratory function (Yi et al., 2004).

FAQ

What does the 10:1 extract ratio mean?

A 10:1 ratio means that 1 kg of dried Cordyceps mushroom is concentrated into 100 g of extract, providing a potent dose in a smaller amount.

What distinguishes an extract from a ground mushroom?

Extraction and simple grinding are two distinct methods of processing mushrooms, with extraction being a more comprehensive approach.

The key difference lies in how each method interacts with the mushroom's structure. Mushroom cell walls contain chitin, a tough compound that extraction can break down more effectively than grinding alone. This breakdown allows better access to various substances within the mushroom cells.

Extraction typically involves solvents like water or alcohol, which can dissolve and isolate specific compounds from the mushroom material.

As a result, the extraction process often yields a more concentrated form of mushroom compounds compared to ground mushrooms.

While humans lack the enzyme to break down chitin efficiently, extraction processes can make mushroom compounds more accessible. However, it's important to note that any specific effects on human digestion or health would require scientific verification.

What part of the mushroom was the extract prepared from?

We only use the fruiting bodies of the mushroom. This is due to the desire to obtain a pure mushroom extract. When dealing with mycelium-based supplements, unfortunately it may turn out that up to 60-70% of such an extract will be starch instead of mushroom without the health-promoting effects attributed to mushrooms. This is due to the inability to separate the mycelium from the medium on which it grows.

What does the mushroom extraction process involve?

The extraction of dried mushroom fruiting bodies involves several key steps:

Grinding: The dried mushrooms are ground into a fine powder.

Extraction: This powder is then extracted using hot water and alcohol:

Hot Water: This step dissolves the chitin in the mushroom cell walls, allowing for the extraction of compounds like beta glucans, which are biologically active polysaccharides.

Alcohol: This solvent extracts water-insoluble compounds, such as triterpenes.

Concentration: After extraction, the mixture is concentrated to enhance the potency of the extract.

Spray Drying: Finally, the concentrated extract undergoes spray drying.

This process efficiently removes moisture while minimising nutrient loss, resulting in a stable dry extract.

What is the best time to take mushroom supplements?

You can take mushroom supplements at any time you like. Some mushrooms have the potential to support things like energy, while others have the potential to support things like sleep.

Here's a quick breakdown, but generally, you can take mushroom supplements whenever you wish.

Morning and throughout the day:
• Lions Mane
• Reishi
• Cordyceps
• Chaga

Evening:
• Reishi
• Chaga

What are Beta-d-glucans (1.3&1.6)?

Beta-D-glucans are a type of complex sugar made from long chains of glucose molecules. They are found in nature, especially in mushrooms, and are known for their potential ability to support and regulate the immune system.

Beta-D-glucans from mushrooms are considered to be more beneficial than those sourced from cereals like oats and barley, yeasts, or certain algae. This is due to their distinct structural features and the health advantages they may offer.

At Solve Labs, we exclusively utilise mushroom-sourced Beta-D-Glucans for these reasons.

Why are fruiting bodies are superior to mycelium?

The debate between fruiting bodies and mycelium in mushroom supplements continues, but research often points to the advantages of fruiting bodies.

Key points

Higher Bioactive Compounds - Fruiting bodies generally contain more essential bioactive compounds like triterpenoids and polysaccharides than mycelium.

Stronger Antioxidant Properties - Studies show that fruiting bodies often have greater antioxidant capacity than mycelium.

Improved Bioavailability - The bioactive compounds in fruiting bodies are often more readily absorbed by the body.

Richer Nutrient Profile - Fruiting bodies offer a broader range of nutrients, including amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.

Higher Phenolic Content - Fruiting bodies contain more phenolic compounds, which are associated with antioxidant effects.

Traditional Use - Fruiting bodies have been widely used in traditional medicine, indicating a long-standing preference for their properties.
