Cordyceps (Cordyceps militaris) is the performance mushroom — used for centuries by Tibetan herders at altitude and now validated by modern sports science for its measurable effects on energy, endurance and oxygen utilisation.Salus Cordyceps is cultivated on organic substrates, extracted from the fruiting body at peak cordycepin content, and standardised to ensure consistent potency in every capsule.What Cordyceps does ATP production — cordycepin directly enhances cellular energy metabolism, delivering cleaner and more sustained energy than stimulants VO₂ max improvement — increases oxygen uptake efficiency, measurably improving endurance performance Adaptogenic stamina — reduces exercise-induced fatigue and supports faster recovery between sessions Libido and vitality — traditional use supported by clinical research on testosterone modulation and sexual function Respiratory support — opens airways and supports lung capacity, particularly at altitude Key active compounds Cordycepin — nucleoside analogue driving ATP synthesis and anti-fatigue effects Beta-glucans — immune support and anti-inflammatory action Adenosine — cardiovascular and energy support Polysaccharides — antioxidant protection How to useTake 1–2 capsules daily. Best taken in the morning or 30–60 minutes before physical activity. Results build over 3–4 weeks of consistent use.
