Clinical studies
“These findings support the belief, long held in China, that Cordyceps sinensis has the potential to improve exercise capacity and resistance to fatigue. An additional study involving more subjects would be needed to provide convincing evidence of post-treatment differences between the two groups. Also, endurance exercise testing at a constant submaximal work rate would be necessary to verify a truly ergogenic effect”

“In conclusion, we have successfully confirmed that Cordyceps militaris induces
fatigue recovery via activating AMPK and AKT/mTOR pathways and
regulating serum hormone level. Our data provides experimental evidence
in supporting clinical use of Cordyceps militaris as an effective agent against fatigue.” (Study on Mice)

“Treatment of cells by Cordyceps sinensis (250 μg/mL)
significantly attenuated the oxidative stress in hypoxia…Further,
higher levels of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory mediators, namely, TGFβ, HO1, and MT levels in Cordyceps sinensis treated cells might also be responsible for tolerance of cells to hypoxia.”
