Cordyceps Benefits
In traditional Chinese and Eastern medicine, people take cordyceps as a daily treatment for good health. The fungus has been studied for its effects on many health conditions, but there isn’t much conclusive research about whether cordyceps has real health benefits.
Here are some examples of what cordyceps might be able to do, according to some studies:
May delay aging
Some studies show that cordyceps may have antioxidant properties. Antioxidants are substances that can help fight off harmful free radicals. Free radicals can damage molecules in DNA, proteins, and other vital cells in your body. Preventing this damage may delay the body’s aging process.
May reduce inflammation
Some studies also show that cordyceps may help reduce inflammation in your body. These anti-inflammatory properties could help ease symptoms of diseases like asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and other conditions.
May boost immunity
People have been taking cordyceps for generations to boost their immunity. Researchers are finding that this might be true and that certain species, like C. militaris, may be a safe and effective way of helping your immune system stay strong.
May improve kidney health
The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, as well as others, might help cordyceps improve kidney health or prevent kidney disease. One study showed that it may help treat renal fibrosis. In one large-scale study, cordyceps lowered creatinine levels in people with chronic kidney disease, and in others, it protected the kidneys from toxic drugs, complications of diabetes, and transplant rejection.
May help stabilize blood sugar levels
Regulating blood sugar levels can be tricky. Although it’s not yet proven, so there are no recommendations of what type of cordyceps and how much of it to take, there are signs that cordyceps may help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin resistance for some people.

May improve sexual performance
Researchers haven’t yet found proof that cordyceps can increase or improve sexual performance, but there is some evidence that it might increase the sperm count and help the sperm move more easily.
Cordyceps may also:
Ease fatigue
Improve how you use oxygen when you exercise
Destroy tumor cells
Reduce bone loss
Stabilize the heartbeat
Lower triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)
Researchers are looking at the bioactive compound cordycepin to battle COVID-19 due to its antiviral activity. A few studies done in the lab have explored this, but it's not a confirmed treatment.
Most of these studies have been on lab cultures or in animals. We still need more research with large-scale studies on humans to know for sure if cordyceps has real benefit to human health.
