Frequently asked questions

What does DER 10:1 mean in cordyceps extract?

DER describes the ratio of raw material to extract. In this product, ten parts of the fruiting bodies of Cordyceps sinensis yield one part of extract. This parameter distinguishes standardized extract from regular ground mushroom, as it indicates how much raw material is behind the powder in the package. The higher the first number, the more raw material corresponds to one part of extract.

Are Cordyceps sinensis and Chinese caterpillar fungus the same mushroom?

Yes, Cordyceps sinensis is the name used internationally, while Chinese caterpillar fungus is its English name. Both refer to the fungus whose fruiting bodies this extract is made from. You will also find Cordyceps militaris, the scarlet caterpillar club, in stores, but that is a different species. So when purchasing, look at the Latin name of the species, not just the word cordyceps.

What to mix cordyceps powder with?

The manufacturer suggests coffee, water, smoothies, or any other drink. You pour the powder into a cup or blender and mix thoroughly, so you do not need capsules or a separate glass of water. Measure the daily portion according to the recommendation on the packaging and do not exceed it. You can add the powder to both hot coffee and cold smoothies.

What does standardization to 30% polysaccharides mean?

This is a declared parameter of the extract, indicating that polysaccharides make up at least 30% of the powder. This gives the product a defined specification, rather than just the name of the raw material on the packaging. The extract is made 100% from the fruiting bodies of Cordyceps sinensis, and its DER is 10:1. Mushroom extracts are standardized to polysaccharides because they are a group of compounds naturally present in mushrooms.
