The evidence in words

How much to take

1–3 g/day of extract if trialing; expectations should be low.

Timing & separation

There are no strict timing conflicts on record for Cordyceps; consistency matters more than the exact hour for most goals.

Why the dose is what it is

Proposed to improve oxygen utilization and mitochondrial ATP production; human confirmation is lacking.

Bottom line

Trendy but thin. The endurance claims aren't backed by solid human data; spend your supplement budget elsewhere.

How it is used

As the entry records it, from the studies it summarises. Not a recommendation for you — doses that suit a trial population may not suit you.

If trialing
1–3 g/day extract.
