Cordyceps

On the one hand: a long history as medicinal fungi with a number of alleged benefits, on the other: a parasite that mind-controls its prey into self-destruction. Decisions, decisions.

  • Lung and kidney tonic
  • Treatment of chronic bronchitis, asthma, tuberculosis and other diseases of the respiratory system
  • Increases endurance
  • Increases blood oxygenation
  • Tonifies bone marrow
  • Reinforces the Qi
  • Increases sperm production
  • Increases libido
  • Increases longevity
  • Clears phlegm
  • Strengthens the lower back and knees
  • Strengthens the immune system
  • An antidote for opium poisoning and addiction
  • A tonic for anyone after pregnancy or who is recovering from a serious disease
  • Replenishes Yin and Yang Jing and restores the deep energy expended as a result of extreme exertion or stress or from aging. 



A friend delivered some of this to speed my recovery. Was he being mind controlled to disseminate the spores?! A potential source, should I succumb.
