Cordyceps Sinensis

[Guest guest]

Good Morning!

 

Cordyceps Sinensis

 

Cordyceps Sinensis is a famous and costly traditional Chinese

medicine. It is created when a type of fungus parasitizes the larvae

of the Chongcao Bat Moth and forms a fungus/larva composite body. The

larva forms a cocoon in the winter and hibernates in the ground.

Because the fruiting body of the fungus emerges from the head of the

larva in the summertime and resembles a grass sprout, this medicine's

Chinese name means roughly " winter-insect, summer grass. "

 

Cordyceps Sinensis is found on high mountain peaks over 3, 800 meters

above sea level. It is mainly produced in China's provinces of

Sichuan, Qing-hai, Xizang, and Yunnan.

 

Practitioners of Chinese traditional medicine believe that Cordyceps

Sinensis, having a sweetish taste and a warm character, enters

through the kidney and lung channels enhancing lung functioning,

bolstering the kidneys' yang energy, increasing essence, relieving

coughing, and lessening sputum. Chemical analysis has revealed that

Cordyceps Sinensis contains protein, fats, vitamin B12,

cordycepicacid, and ergosterol. Clinically it is used to treat the

weakness of kidneys and lungs, poor vitality, impotence,

spermatorrhea, asthma, aching back and knees, and general debility

caused by long-term illness.

 

Cordyceps Sinensis can also be used as a treatment for coughing blood

or bloody sputum that maybe caused by tuberculosis, coughing and

difficult breathing, and cold or sudden sweating. Modern medical

research has revealed that the codycepicacid in Cordyceps Sinensis

can relax the bronchia and strengthen the adrenal glands. It is

recorded in the " Historical Annals of Szechuan " that Cordyceps

Sinensis is classified as a warm tonic agent, and is highly effective

at replenishing the essence and strengthening the body.

 

In recent years, medical researchers have conducted many studies of

Cordyceps Sinensis, and some new discoveries have further expanded

its scope as a curative agent. Everyone knows that kanamycin and

gentamicin are commonly-used antibiotics that have a wide range of

clinical application. However, their fatal weakness is that they have

toxic side effects to the kidneys. In severe cases, acute kidney

failure can lead to death. Therefore, these antibiotics are

termed " renal toxic antibiotics. " Last year, the prominent kidney

specialist, Professor Li Shuo-shin, discovered that Cordyceps

Sinensis can prevent the kidney damage caused by antibiotics and

other drugs without blocking their antibiotic effect. This result

provides a new safeguard measure to accompany the use of renal toxic

antibiotics.

 

Hepatitis B is a grave threat to human health. It is estimated that

10% of the population in China is infected with hepatitis B, which

implies that over 100 million people are either suffering from

hepatitis B or carry the hepatitis B virus. At present, Western and

Chinese medicine offer several dozen methods of treating hepatitis B,

but no one method is satisfactorily effective. Even very costly

interferons can deliver effectiveness no greater than 25-50%, and do

little to prevent recurrence. Under the guidance of professor Xiao

Sudong, graduate student Wang Changcheng of the Shanghai Research

Institute for Digestive Disorders performed research on hepatitis B

viruses carrying surface molecules from peripheral blood lymphocytes,

and the effect of Cordyceps Sinensis on hepatitis B viruses carrying

surface molecules from peripheral blood lymphocytes, and the effect

of lipopolysaccharides contained in Cordyceps Sinensis on the

cellular immune function of patients with chronic hepatitis B. The

results of this research proves that Cordyceps Sinensis is able to

enhance the cellular immune function and that lipopolysaccharides

contained in Cordyceps Sinensis are even more effective in this

regard. Because these lipopolysaccharides are able to affect greater

than 53.5% of the negative conversion of HBeAg, 68.4% of the short-

term negative conversion of hepatic B DNA, they may be able to

replace interferons as a hepatitis B treatment.

 

Research conducted in Beijing has shown that most cases of cirrhosis

of the liver occur in persons who are suffering from chronic

hepatitis B. Depending on the degree of advancement of the hepatitis

B and the pathological changes that have occurred in the liver,

cirrhosis may gradually appear in many cases.

 

Cordyceps Sinensisand other Chinese traditional herbs can effectively

arrest liver cirrhosis and can even reverse the progression of early-

stage cirrhosis. Researcher Lin Ching-yuan of the Research Department

of Veterans General Hospital in Taipei has announced that he has

isolated an active component of Cordyceps Sinensis that can stop the

progression of immunoglobulin nephritis. Immunoglobulin A nephritis

in Asia, and currently lacks an effective means of treatment. 20% of

those suffering from this condition die of kidney failure. Cordyceps

Sinensis can stop this condition from worsening, and clinical trials

have shown that it can also alleviate hematuria, albumimuria and

edema.

 

Cordyceps Sinensis is a well known and important ingredient in

and it is very widely used both in clinical medicine

and as a household remedy. In the Compedium of Materia Medica, the

great classic of Chinese medicine, Cordyceps is described in detail

and is considered potent at strengthening lungs and kidneys,

increasing energy and vitality, stopping hemorrhaging, decreasing

phlegm, and as an overall tonic. After 20 years of study, the central

pharmaceutical research unit of China has refined Cordyceps Sinensis

Hyphas, the most effective component of Cordyceps Sinensis, using the

most advanced scientific methods to provide the market with a

homogenous, highly effective quality Chinese medicine that meets the

requirements of modern pharmaceutical practice. Scientists have

managed to remove the toxins of As and Pb which are normally found in

the Cordyceps Sinensis herb. Over the course of ten years, Cordyceps

Sinensis Hyphas has proved itself superior to the original Cordyceps

Sinensis in tens of thousands of clinical tests carried out at

several dozen central-grade schools in both Western and Chinese

medical institutions.

 

Medical Properties: Regular, dry and warm

 

Physical Properties: Cordyceps Sinenesis Hyphas consists of a brown,

high molecular weight powder with a mildly bitter flavor and a unique

strong fragrance.

 

Indications of Health Efficacies of Cordyceps Sinensis are:

• Asthma, Allergic rhinitis

• Poor renal function, renal injuries by chemicals

• Chronic bronchitis, coughing

• Poor resistance of respiratory tract, and lowered immunity to flu

• Abnormal blood pressure

• Decreased sex drive, irregular menstruation

• Raised blood lipid levels

• Weakened immunity due to aging

• Excellent for patients with Immunity Deficiencies such as dialysis,

septicaemia, and so on.

 

 

Cordyceps Sinensis is certified by modern medicine and is proven

effective against asthma in both young and old, reversing the toxic

effects of various chemicals to the kidneys, strengthening the body's

immunity, and repressing cancer cells.
