What You Need To Know About Cordyceps…

Why Cordyceps are so unique and special...

Cordyceps are known as a "parasitic" fungus. This means that they literally infect their insect host with mycelium. With time, they take over and kill the insect. What sprouts are the cordyceps mushroom. These are the highly coveted and rare "wild cordyceps". Our cordyceps are grown on a substrate, ensuring they do no harm to animal or insect life.

(And don't worry... Our cordyceps won't infect you!!)

Cordyceps are a great everyday mushroom.

We Source Only The BEST Ingredients

We source only the Highest Quality mushrooms available. All of our mushrooms & extracts go through rigorous testing and quality control. This ensures there are no harmful chemicals, heavy metals or contaminants. They are also grown "Di Tao" (authentic source). This is why we consider our ingredients "beyond" organic!

Di Tao Herbs (Authentic Source)

All of our herbs are grown "Di Tao" (from their Authentic Source). It is hard to translate many words/concepts from Chinese to English. Dì Tào roughly translates to “Earth Tao,” or “the Way of the Earth.”

Another way to put it: Di Tao means grown in the original way.

What this means, is that all of our herbs are grown in the same geographical region as their wild ancestors. In fact some of our herbs are even wildcrafted.

This means all of our herbs are grown in the soil and climate nature intended. This is VERY important for herbs. It ensures they have all they need to be full of health promoting plant compounds!

10:1 Concentrated Extracts

Our mushrooms are also all 8:1 extracts. This means they are super concentrated. Every 1 gram of our product is equivalent to 8 grams of regular dried herbs. In other words: A little goes a long way!

This 8:1 extraction process creates a finished product that creates instant tea. Normally, you need to steep and boil Chinese herbs to extract their qualities. Our powdered extracts have already been cooked and activated before becoming powder. This means you just need to add a small amount (1/4 - 1/2 tsp) to hot water, and you will have "instant" tea.

How To Use Our Products...

For best results, take daily on an empty stomach, before or between meals.

The first and most important rule of Tonic Herbalism is compliance: If you do not regularly take herbs, you will not experience results.
