If your fast-paced
lifestyle, sports-filled days, frequent partying and/or tedious work demands
get you wondering where you’d get the next outburst of sustained energy, not to
mention, aid to health, you now have the answer. (Or in certain cases, if your
health condition prevents you from pursuing an active life, like some people
interviewed with liver or some specific ailments, you may now have the answer.)
A food supplement trusted by athletes worldwide, which occupies, in fact, a
long history in the tradition of the Olympics, is now in the country through
the trusted brand Gano Excel, distributed locally through Gano iTouch Phils. But Cordyceps is not only for the sporty and athletic
people, it’s also for those of you who off and on feel that your energy is
zapped but simply need to get going.
According
to the Gano Excel Founder, Sir Leow Soon Seng “Nutritious and
safe to take, Cordyceps is an all-natural, organic capsule made out of an edible mushroom species named Cordyceps, which is used
as herbal medicine. It is thus taken not only for energy and stamina, but also
for good health.”
“Traditionally called Cordyceps Sinensis, which widely known and used
in traditional Chinese medicine,it has been given names in both China and
Japan: the Chinese call it ‘DongChongXiaCao’or DCXC, while the Japanese refer
to it as ‘Tockukaso’, which means ‘winter-insect and summer-plant’.“
“It is
as old as the Qing Dynasty of the 1700s and has been written about by noted
Chinese scribes, as something made up of proteins, fibre, crude fats,
carbohydrates, cordycepin, cordycepic acid, polysaccharide, and different
vitamins, among others; it also increases oxygen utilization and enhances the
production of ATP—Adenosine triphosphate, which transports chemical energy within the cell for metabolism,” he adds.
Other Gano
Excel research findings about Cordyceps Sinensis: other bioactive components
are nucleotides, needed to produce RNA and DNA; ergosterol, which is an important
precursor of vitamin D2;amino acids which are protein building blocks; fatty
acids, both saturated and unsaturated, which help in lowering blood lipids and
protect from cardiovascular diseases; and metal elements, such as Zn, Mg, Mn,
which are good for the gonads and kidney. This is verified by the Journal of
Pharmacy and Pharmacology, which in 2008 stated that Cordyceps Sinensis has a
protective effect on organs. From the said journal, one can gather that it
deters liver fibrosis, hastens macrophage phagocytosis, and enhances the immune
function of organisms with its strong capacity to clear the virus.”
What’s more, Cordyceps
was found to boost the weak immune system and suppress overactive immune
reaction. This is according The Journal
of Leukocyte Biology Volume 85, June 2009. Several studies are available
to conclude that Cordycyeps may help enhance physical stamina and fight
fatigue, and may promote healthy respiratory and lung function. It helps reduce
bad cholesterol and blood sugar and increase good cholesterol. It may alleviate
back and knee pains, and may have anti-aging value. It may also help alleviate
sexual dysfunction in males.
Sir Leow adds, “There are
studies that indicate that Cordyceps has anticancer, anti-metastatic,
immuno-enhancing, and antioxidant effects. This is according to Gene Bruno of
the 2009 clinical trials MHS of Huntington College of Health Sciences, which
support the efficacy of Cordyceps especially on the liver, kidney and the
immune system.”
Bruno also made a
statement on how Cordyceps aids in endurance. He cites the testimonial of eight
female champion Chinese athletes, who vied in 1993 for a track distance event
in the Stuttgard World Championships who broke several
world records in 1993 in the Chinese National Games in Beijing and won a series
of medals at the German World Athletic Championships. The athletes said
in unison that they included Cordyceps in their diet along with intense
training and dedication. There are now even Filipinos who have tried Cordyceps
and will soon be giving testimonials on its efficacy.
