Cordyceps Sinensis
Another powerful energy driver in AgelessXtra is a rare mushroom called Cordyceps Sinensis. - For more than 1500 years, Cordyceps has been a highly valued therapeutic substance in classic Chinese medicine. Widely used for rejuvenation and overall healthy aging, this rare mushroom is treasured as a source of stamina and endurance, immune support and healing. Cordyceps grows naturally on the Tibetan plateaus. It is often called ‘the athlete’s herb’, for improving aerobic capacity, reducing fatigue, and aiding in recovery from physical exertion.
FOR EMPERORS ONLY
Cordyceps was once reserved exclusively for the Chinese Emperor. Cordyceps was eventually offered to the few who could afford it, the wealthiest families of the Dynasty. Nobles took it before going into battle and prior to challenging journeys. Now commonly cultivated, wild cordyceps is still very expensive, as much as one thousand dollars for 100 grams.
Green Tea
Energy and antioxidant power make green tea the new ‘must have’ for healthy aging. Double-blind human studies link the polyphenols in green tea with helping to prevent several types of cancer – lung, breast, stomach, and small intestine. At a conference sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the American Cancer Society, scientists called for the Food and Drug Administration to add tea to the official list of fruits and vegetables we should eat daily.

Rhodiola
Manuscripts dating back to 760 AD show that Rhodiola was used in Tibetan medicine to support vital energy, help the body resist stress, strengthen the brain, and provide nourishment to preserve health. Today researchers are focused on Rhodiola’s potential as an aid for endurance, as a way to relieve tiredness and muscle weakness, and as a method to improve efficiency of physical and mental work.
Rhodiola and Stress
A highly uniform population of 19-21 year-old cadets participated in a study to determine the effects of Rhodiola on mental fatigue. All the cadets had similar baseline data for performance capability. Then they were tested under stressful conditions. Some had received Rhodiola. Others had not. There was a significant difference in the fatigue levels of cadets who took the Rhodiola extract.
