Cordyceps sinensis is actually a "complex of fungi and insects". There are 1500 kinds of substances with this property in the world. Among them, "Cordyceps sinensis" and "Cordyceps militaris" are the most common in the market. Cordyceps sinensis has been used in China for hundreds of years, which is a summary of experience after long-term practice. Let's talk about its appearance first. It grows in the alpine plateau area above 3000 meters above sea level in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of China. It can be either an insect or a grass. Cordyceps sinensis is a collection of two kinds of creatures: one is bat moth larvae and the other is Cordyceps sinensis. When moth larvae pupate in the soil in autumn and winter, Cordyceps sinensis will take the opportunity to parasitize in their bodies. Slowly, Cordyceps sinensis absorbed the nutrition of the bat moth larva and killed it.

Cordyceps sinensis can increase immune cells, promote antibody production and reduce the function of some immune cells, which has good anti-tumor effect. Modern science has studied the active substances of Cordyceps sinensis, and found that the most valuable one is cordycepic acid, and the rest are protein, fat, carbohydrates and vitamins. Cordyceps acid is not a special substance, but mannitol, which is used every day in hospitals.

Cordyceps sinensis, like ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, is regarded as a magic medicine because of its unique shape. In fact, any medicine, even a very common medicine, can still play its magical role as long as it is used correctly. In addition, Cordyceps sinensis is not a "bug" in winter and not a "grass" in summer. In traditional Chinese medicine, Cordyceps sinensis has always been regarded as a valuable Chinese medicine with the functions of tonifying kidney, lung qi, benefiting qi and nourishing yin. It has a certain nourishing effect on patients with kidney deficiency and lung qi deficiency.
