Cordyceps (Latin name: Cordyceps militaris) is considered a "medicinal" edible mushroom that has been used in Tibet and China as a general tonic and to promote good health.

It contains:

• Vitamins
• Minerals
• Trace elements
• Essential amino acids
• B-glucans
• Active polysaccharides

Thanks to the hot water extraction method, a high polysaccharide content of at least 30% is ensured in the extract. Greenbay's Cordyceps extract comes from the fruiting body of the mushrooms, which is considered their most nutritious part.

As a functional food, it can be added to savory or sweet recipes, providing earthy flavor notes. With a strong taste, it can be added in small quantities to various recipes, such as:

• Soups
• Cookies
• Beverages, such as tea, smoothies, plant-based milks

Its nutritional properties are not altered at high temperatures.
