What Is Cordyceps Mushroom Extract Powder?

Cordyceps mushrooms belong to the Clavicipitaceae family and many Cordyceps mushroom species are used in traditional Tibetan and Chinese practices. Cordyceps militaris is one of the more studied and utilized species. Cordyceps militaris and other related species are an endoparasitoid fungi, which means they are basically parasites. However, Cordyceps militaris, the species used for our Cordyceps mushroom extracts, does not need a host to grow and is able to grow on a substrate. In fact, Cordyceps militaris also contains much more Cordycepin than Cordyceps sinensis and other Cordyceps species, making it the preferred Cordyceps species for supplementation!

Cordyceps militaris mushroom has an elongated and finger-like fruiting body. Cordyceps fungus can appear individually or they can grow as a cluster. The name ‘Cordyceps’ is derived from the Greek word “kordyle”, which means ‘club’. The Latin stem “ceps” loosely translates to “head”, which describes the Cordyceps fruiting body’s club-like appearance. Some of the first written records of Cordyceps mushrooms were from 15th century Tibetan texts, where it was used to enhance many aspects of health, and allowing better adaptation to high altitudes. At the time, Cordyceps mushroom was referred to as Yartsa gunbu, it was later named to Cordyceps sinensis. This species is currently referred to as OphioCordyceps sinensis. Now that we have access to modern research, many of the ancient Tibetan uses, are now being verified by science and many other Cordyceps Mushroom Extract uses have been discovered through modern research too. 

Evidence shows that Cordyceps mushroom benefits extend to many areas of health. These areas of health include immune system health, cellular health, cardiovascular health and cognitive health. These Cordyceps benefits can be traced to one of the main bioactives in Cordyceps militaris, a unique compound called cordycepin. Cordyceps militaris in particular, contains a particularly high concentration of cordycepin in comparison to other Cordyceps species. So what Cordyceps health benefits does Cordycepin produce, and what can we gain from Cordyceps mushroom benefits?

Cordycepin Structure

What is 10:1 Extract?

Contrary to what some believe, 10:1 does not mean that the extract is exactly ten times more potent than the 1:1, but the Cordyceps 10:1 mushroom extract shows more potency in demonstrating cognitive effects than other Cordyceps benefits. However, the 10:1 ratio only signifies the amount of raw material equivalent used in the extract. 10:1 means that it takes 10 pounds of raw Cordyceps mushroom to make 1 pound of 10:1 Cordyceps powder.

Our 10:1 extract is a dual water/alcohol extract, which concentrates both the water and alcohol soluble compounds present in Cordyceps mushroom. Our Cordyceps 10:1 extract contains a much higher concentration of water-soluble compounds than the regular 1:1 Cordyceps extract, however, and perhaps more importantly, it also contains a higher amount of alcohol-soluble compounds such as Cordycepin. Cordycepin produces most of the positive brain and energy-boosting effects of Cordyceps militaris and thus, our 10:1 dual water/alcohol extract is the ideal extract for these supplementation goals.* That being said, we do sacrifice some Beta-Glucans during this extraction process which is why the Beta-Glucan content is actually lower in the 10:1 Cordyceps extract when compared with the 1:1 Cordyceps extract. The upside is that the 10:1 extract is richer in other interesting compounds, and due to this, we also find that the Cordyceps 1:1 actually stacks really nicely with the Cordyceps 10:1 extract! 

Beta-Glucan (β-Glucan) minimum content: 20%

Cordycepin content: .3% by HPLC

Cordyceps Dosage

As a dietary supplement, take 250mg of Cordyceps Mushroom 1-2 times daily.

    Gives me depression and lethargy

    About cordyceps 10:1. I bought this supplement for getting energy/mood boost. What I've had was the total opposite. I dosed 250 mg (following ND's depot guidelines). Nothing. 500 almost nothing and the next day I felt terribly depressed/lethargic. I tried to dose a last time today at 2 gr (2x1gr) in a 40 min span. NO-THING. Except depression knocking back at my door. For me it's a total no go ! Prove me wrong.

    Really good change in exercise after time

    Not as strong as I expected because the effects built up over time, but not a big deal to me. I have a lot more stamina when I exercise now, I take it with Creatine and I'm pretty sure Cordyceps is the one doing it because I didn't feel these effects when I used to do Creatine alone. I also feel like I can get up and do things more without thinking about them with Cordyceps.

    Great product

    Received this a couple of days ago and cracked it open today when my new scale arrived. I ended up back here in the reviews trying to figure out why it was hardening as I tried to load it into capsules. It turns out it’s from humidity. It sticks to absolutely EVERYTHING. I guess I’m going to have to find some environment to weigh it that isn’t as humid because in my current location it is very difficult to work with. That aside the product itself is great, as I’d expect from this site.

    I enjoy it, it is a daily staple

    I use this product as well as a competitor's brand that utilizes myceliated brown rice. The competitor brand tastes better imo, but does not have the same perceived benefits as nootropics 10:1 extract. I feel my energy is sustained throughout the day and do not experience fatigue as much - however I take this with other vitamins and lions mane, and make sure to exercise a few times a week. Overall I rate this 4/5 because nothing is perfect, but this is a recommended addition to your supplementation for general use. I buy the powder, but capsulate it myself and take 0.25g twice a day.

    This product is temperature sensitive

    Make sure to refrigerate this product if you are in a warmer climate. It is possible for Cordyceps powder to melt and solidify into a hard resin which I'm unsure if is active. Make sure to keep it in the fridge. I would rate 5 stars if there were some mention of this happening, but it is never stated that the powder can melt. I had to throw away my last tub because it melted during the summer, but this tub I will keep in the refrigerator. Otherwise the product is fantastic. ND Admin: It's actually not melting. It's absorbing moisture. It is likely happening more in summer because of humidity. Keeping it away from humidity is the best idea. If you can put it in a sealed glass jar with a desiccant pack, that should fix the issue.

    Workout Endurance

    I have never had an herb or supplement effect my workout endurance like this has. Truly there is a noticeable difference in how long and hard I can go in the gym. If you’re out of shape this makes it way easier to get in it. I only do 500mg preworkout and I can absolutely notice the difference in my stamina if I forget to take it. This will always be stocked in my cabinet. Thank you ND

    Great stuff

    Once again, Nootropics Depot delivers in the quality department. Highest quality cordyceps on the market. You can tell just by opening the jar and seeing that bright orange color. Most other popular cordyceps sold is a pale white color and is mostly rice. Nice earthy aroma and flavor and provides a powerful energy boost. Helps with energy, motivation, and brain fog. Gives a clear headed feeling with no jitters. Like most noots, should be cycled due to tolerance build up.

    Clean, smooth energy

    I put off trying medicinal mushrooms for years. They seemed to be a fad. Recently I took the plunge after watching some Paul Stamets videos. I've found the cordyceps 10:1 extract to be a powerful energy source. I made ~450mg capsules out of them and even just one of them in the morning on an empty stomach provides some energy. If I'm feeling really groggy, ~900mg of cordyceps 10:1 and ~650mg of lion's mane and I've got motivation and energy for the next 6 to 8 hours. These quickly became core tools in my nootropics stacks. Thanks ND and Nammex!

    Great

    Works really well. Great taste. It doesn't keep me awake at night. Makes me anxious if I take it in the morning with my coffee.

    Love this stuff

    I keep coming back to this supplement. It makes me feel happier in my day to day life. I notice that i seem to have more ups and my downs seem to lack depth while im on it. It helps with energy when i workout. I get a libido boost as well. I first tried the 1.1 then an year later i tried this for the first time it was too strong i got anxiousness on a 1 gram dose. I started taking 0.5 grams and stayed on it and it works wonderful. I also went back to try the 1:1 again but found it to be less effective than this supplement personally. Plus the can lasts me twice as long on this as i only need half the dose. I take it with my shilijat tar that i get from ebay russia. I drink it hot or warm water instead of a morning coffee. I also love the taste btw. It hasca wonderful taste in my opinion where the 1.1 is not at pronounced tastewise. I dont actually care if my supplements taste horrible its just a bonus if i like the taste. For example i buy the nigella sativa extract, mix it up with some oil i buy from Amazon and i use it like that then i know that my oil is top notch stuff lol. Keep on supplying this great product ND. Its actually my favorite supplement out of everything ive tried. And I have tried quite a few.

    Unbelievable!

    I have tried about 75% of the products sold by ND but I always stayed away from medicinal mushrooms because frankly I thought they were a fraud. On the other hand I have had more than a few very profound experiences taking 1 gram of a certain type of mushroom that is not sold by ND. So I gave several of the ethanol extracts a try. Suffice it to say I was blown away by all of them, to the extent that I recently ordered about a 6 month supply of this one, Lion's Mane and Red Reishi and decided to give the Chaga and Poira a try as well. This has significant acute affects for me in the form of very clean energy and clarity that perhaps results from the way this mushroom purportedly improves the body's utilization of oxygen. That's what it feels like to me. I find that I need less of this than the other two, and was surprised to find that ND appears to agree with me in the sense that they offer this extract in 250 mg. capsules, which I have also ordered. I plan on taking this daily for as long as I can afford it and am very interested to see how the sustained benefits stack up. I would not buy mushrooms from any other source than ND.

    Energy Booster

    I have been taking ND Cordyceps for a month and a half and I can honestly say my energy and motivation has improved dramatically.

    Not groundbreaking

    If anything there was slight libido increase.

    Love Love Love!

    What can I say about these other than I love them! I've been taking a 1-1 1/2 grams a day for little over a month now, and have taken them regularly before in their mycelium versions, but this is so much more potent! I'll usually do a gram in my tea in the mornings, along with the shilajit powder, and have noticed much increased stamina and oxygen uptake over the time I've been taking them, with an overall feeling of wellbeing. I also take the white jelly and turkey tail mushroom extracts, but noticed other's saying things about softer skin, and have noticed that as well. I live in the deserts of west Texas, and my skin is the softest it has ever been, and I haven't changed anything as far as hygiene department, or my diet, other than adding in these mushrooms. I recommend these to everyone I come across.

    Excercise boost.

    I use it on the workout days and it increases endurance slightly. It also boosts alertness and energy levels some. The taste is alright to mix in the morning tea, the powder is complete dry so it mixes and smells well.
