Nutritional Profile

- Contains a blend of polysaccharides and cordycepin. - Rich in essential vitamins and minerals. - Provides dietary fiber. - Low in calories and fat.

Reported Mechanism (Provisional)

Mechanism of Action

The blend's cordycepin compounds activate adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis and ATP production. Beta-glucans modulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, reducing cortisol while supporting sustained energy release. Polysaccharides improve oxygen transport by increasing red blood cell flexibility and capillary blood flow.

Clinical Narrative (Provisional)

Limited clinical data exists for this specific proprietary blend formulation. Individual mushroom components like cordyceps have shown 7-15% improvements in VO2 max in studies of 20-40 participants over 6-12 weeks. Energy enhancement claims are primarily based on traditional use and small preliminary trials. Larger randomized controlled trials are needed to validate the 20% energy increase claim.
