The Science

Cordyceps is believed to stimulate the production of ATP, the primary energy shuttle in cells, thereby ensuring that muscles receive ample energy during physical activity.
This energy upregulation complements its ability to mitigate lactate-induced muscle fatigue, which traditionally curtails athletic performance. In addition, its potential to enhance blood flow ensures that muscles receive optimal oxygenation. Moreover, the presence of adenosine could contribute to the heart health benefits and stabilise the sugar in diabetic individuals.

How will I know its working?

Notable improvement in exercise performance and stamina might be the most obvious indicators. Over a span of one week, subtle changes can emerge, reaching their peak by the eighth week.

When to take it?

Take 1 tablet daily with food and water, unless specified otherwise on the sachet.
