Description

Cordyceps is the mushroom of choice for athletes - whether professional, semi-professional, casual, or beginner. It is widely utilised to promote stamina, relieve fatigue, and improve overall physical performance. 

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, cordyceps fortifies the Lung system for oxygen optimisation, and the Kidneys for deep, lasting energy. It nourishes Qi (daily vitality) and Yang Jing (active life-force), helping you meet the moment with clarity, power, and resilience.

In popular culture, Cordyceps is renowned for propelling Chinese middle-distance runners to multiple world records in the early 90s. The performance was so impressive that authorities immediately tested the team for banned substances, but none were found. It was just the power of Cordyceps. 

So whether you're training hard, recovering slow, or simply feeling drained by life, Cordyceps is your steady companion - strengthening the breath, promoting vitality, and sparking enthusiasm and action.

Our traditionally sourced 10:1 Cordyceps extract is made from vegan-grown Cs-4 mycelium, cultivated through liquid fermentation in its native homeland. This fillerless process results in an ethically harvested, 10:1 potency cordyceps extract powder.

Cordyceps FAQs

Cordyceps extract powder is the athlete’s mushroom of choice, traditionally used in Chinese medicine to enhance energy levels, support physical performance, and nourish the Lungs and Kidneys - two organ systems associated with stamina, recovery, and breath. It’s also valued for helping the body adapt to stress, making it a natural ally for those rebuilding from fatigue or training with intensity. SuperFeasters reach for Cordyceps to support everything from endurance and resilience to respiratory strength and day-to-day energy.
Yes. Cordyceps has been used for centuries to support what modern users might call ‘performance longevity’. In Taoist tonic herbalism, it’s known for tonifying Kidney Yang and Lung Qi, which together support the cycle of physical performance and post-exertion recovery. Many athletes and breathwork practitioners use Cordyceps as part of their training or recovery stack, not merely for a spike of energy, but to cultivate lasting energetic capacity over time. It may also assist in rebuilding your baseline after periods of depletion.
We use a vegan Cs-4 strain of Cordyceps that’s grown in liquid fermentation tanks, not on grain or insect substrate. This process safely and respectfully replicates the energetic profile of wild cordyceps, minus the ethical or sourcing concerns. The extract is a 10:1 full-spectrum powder, retaining the full range of naturally occurring compounds. Compared to generic or grain-based options, SuperFeast Cordyceps offers a cleaner, more potent, and Dì Dào-aligned source of this sought-after mushroom.
Yes. Cordyceps is a tonic herb, which means it’s designed to be taken consistently over time. Rather than acting as a quick fix or stimulant, it gradually helps you build resilience, replenish your baseline (foundational) energy, and support your Kidney Jing and Lung Qi. Daily use may be especially beneficial for those navigating long-term stress, training cycles, or recovery from physical depletion. Always start with the recommended dose and observe how your body responds.
Cordyceps has a subtle, slightly earthy flavour that blends seamlessly into most drinks and meals. It very rarely overpowers other ingredients, which makes it easy to incorporate into a variety of formats — from tonic teas, smoothies and plant-based milks, to broths and even pre-workout elixirs. It’s also great with adaptogenic blends (like our own Mason’s Mushrooms) or stacked with other herbs that support energy and stamina.
Yes. While wild cordyceps grows from caterpillar hosts, our Cs-4 Cordyceps is 100% vegan, cultivated without animal products in a clean broth using a method designed to replicate the herb’s traditional energetic qualities. You get the benefits of traditional cordyceps mushroom powder, without compromising your ethics or needing to consume animal-derived fungi.
Absolutely. In Taoist medicine, Cordyceps is traditionally used to strengthen Lung Qi, which governs breath, voice, immunity, and the flow of oxygen through the body. This makes Cordyceps a great choice for people practising breathwork, engaging in endurance training, or seeking respiratory support during winter. Many users find that Cordyceps enhances their experience of breathing, both during exertion and at rest.
For best results, take Cordyceps powder in the morning or pre-training to support energy, breath, and physical performance. Some people also enjoy taking it in the afternoon to maintain stamina and avoid energy dips without the crash of caffeine. As a tonic mushroom, Cordyceps works best when used regularly over time.
