I took cordyseps capsules the past 2 days and noticed an interesting effect that I woke up in the middle of both nights speaking wonderful poetic words. Great words for music. As a music composer I am definitely checking this out further.
I like the way your videos often take a ‘tested myself’ approach. It adds credibility that other, including the so-called celebrity product evaluators, are missing. And I appreciate your frequent charts, graphs, personal experiences and anecdotes - they make it a lot easier to understand the subject matter. Keep up the good researching and content!! PS, And your sensitive diplomacy also makes a positive difference, like when you said, “No offense to any Joe Smoes out there, you guys are killin’ it!” (2:55) 👏😂
Comments like these 💕 thanks so much, Ed! This approach has really helped me evaluate things a bit more objectively. It’s not perfect but it’s a start. I like to trust my intuition so this helps me stay grounded and healthily inquisitive in the process.
So far I’ve found that I don’t feel anything immediate like the usual preworkout but it does feel like I’m using whatever I do have more efficiently. I’m not feeling like I’m going to fall out as much as usual lol. It’s only been maybe a week and a half of taking it for me
Great to hear Cyn Dee! I wonder what the ingredients are in your preworkout… 🤔 caffeine or sugar will give you immediate feels but not great ingredients for the long run. Cordyceps in contrast is a more natural way to boost your performance imo 🙋🏽♀️
Just came across your channel. To the point, very likable, knowledgable and a sprinkle of humour in there too. Keep up the good work you've won a sub :)
I had NO idea that caffeine could affect the absorption and effects of cordyceps 🤦🏻♀️ make sense but in all the research I've done you are the first person to ever mention this. I've been taking cordyceps daily with a small cup of coffee for the past few weeks thinking the caffeine would help but I've felt no improvement at all :( Now I know why. Thank you
Always fun to experiment with and without variables to see what's truly going on! Thanks for sharing - would love to hear if your results change without caffeine.
i just watched your lions mane video, it was interesting. i read the comments and im looking forward to see ur experiment with the mycelium vs fruiting bodies of lions mane. subbed. btw i read an article yesterday about mushrooms, and it mentioned that reishi and cordyceps are the 2 mushrooms that are not recommended to be taken for a long time. im not sure why, for how long its safe to take them, or if this is actually true.
Thanks so much! And welcome to the fam ☺️ Thanks for the tip on Reishi and Cordyceps. I’ll look into it further during Learning Club (happens on Mondays on Twitch)!
I have heard you need to be taking cordyceps for 6 to 8 weeks for it to build up enough in your system that you start noticing the affects. I loved the video though ... keep them coming.
It works BETTER in a tea , you steep it and feel it IMMEDIATELY for instance if you do that to Reishi you will feel like you are submerging , the focus is unreal. I don't feel ANYTHING and i mean nothing in capsules (I bought powder but I have capsules for other powdered supplements). It's a waste !
I cant pin it down if its the Cordyceps or the other stuff or if its just good old improvement but my asthma is way better and i can even jogg for 2 Miles without Dying.
hi there shin loved your videos. So i have hogh heart rate. More than 80 bpm. I cannot do exercises because my heart rate goes up with simple movements. When my heart rate goes up i feel anxiety and feel like i will have a panic attack anyways. I generallt do breathong execises and take vit min d suppliments and other vitamin actually messes me up only vit d suits me. I was wondering that if i take cordyceps will it help me to reduce my heart rate while working out and if it does which brand would be good. Thank you.
Thanks Tanvir! Glad to hear that you've found what works for you. Your question on Cordyceps is best directed at a medical professional. All I know is that Cordyceps is a vasodilator, so it will help increase blood flow - whether that's desired or undesired for your heart in particular... I don't know.
I did them for 2 months starting last ski season and saw a huge benefit in recovery and endurance coming from a kinda lazy pre-season. About to try taking for another 2 months now that I've picked up running more seriously and am curious to see the VO2 max changes over this time.
I have found objectively it does, I can do more power in short bursts 3-5 minutes but it's impossible for me to say if it's from cordyceps or placebo effect. The questions is, if the results are real and measurable then does it matter?
Biking! But I took breaks in between. With running, I went everyday. So I’ll have to try biking with no breaks and running with breaks to see which I truly like better. Great question 👍😄
I'm wondering why you are linking to a completely different product after testing the oriveda one ? That other product completely lacks the main active cordyceps ingredients: cordycepin and adenosine; so you won't get similar effects.
Oriveda unfortunately isn’t sold on Amazon. If you know of quality Cordyceps sold on Amazon, send me the link! PS: adenosine is naturally occurring in all humans but I can see the need for Cordycepin for sure.
Speed and endurance are not the same thing! To bike faster you need to work your muscles harder in the moment vs. endured stress on the muscle. Look up Slow vs. Fast twitch muscle use.
The approach is insufficent, because it fails to take medium- to longterm effects of cordyceps into account, wihich would only become evident from comparing several weeks of cordyceps supplementation with serveral weeks of cordyceps abstinence. And yes, studies have indicated that the effects increase with supplementation time and with dosage up to at least 4 g of the powder of the dried mushroom.
I wouldn't call those changes insignificant, but due to their only being one person that could definitely be statistically insignificant. It would be interesting to see the range or the range minus outliers across both options. Also, I wasn't sure did you blind this study?
@@ShoshinShow He is the God of Fungi. The problem is 99% of the cordyceps floating around isn't the properly isolated 'strain' . Same thing for Lion's man mushrooms and cognitive function. The polysaccharides and other molecules that boost your neurogenesis and cognitive function are actually found in the mycelium not the fruiting body. If you aren't going to make it yourself, trust Stamets.
But they don't know which is the original culture study, they're multiple different mycelium chasing the fruit body up the worm, not just cordyceps but multiple different fighting to fruit, when cultures was taken they got a different culture of what they thought was cordyceps until they figured out not just any culture will work, taking the right culture means taking multiple cultures and testing until you get the right one, only then can you reproduce a good product, rn what you have on the market is culture of a cultured of a cultured of a cultured of a cultured of wrong mycelium, it's a nightmare, the proper thing to do is start from scratch and work from there and only use the thousands of case studies as cheat sheet to develop a proper product, when you find a company who does this then that would be the perfect product to trust, as of rn best product is the black market from etsy buying it 44$ per 10g

Whoa that’s unique. Keep us posted, would love to hear more about the creative results you’re experiencing
Lol I’m laughing so hard at this
Try lion's mane and reishi then. I've started getting beautiful, happy dreams after I started taking them :D
Works well for runners , stalkers , clickers , shamblers and bloaters
What a diverse group 😆

Dude, that David Attenborough documentary scared the hell out of me, you’re super brave for doing this
Tell me more! Why’d it scare you?
@@ShoshinShow it’s the Zombie fungus! I’d link the video but I don’t think TH-cam will let me 🤦♂️ - Search Cordyceps David Attenborough
Ahahha I searched it! “Parasitic fungus” they called it. Super cool 🤓
@M Do you realize it's a dried extract ? There is no more living parasite. It's like comparing a living cow and a steak.
Phenomenal presentation. Very good. 🌟🔥🌟

Great video
canadian swimmer summer mcintosh takes cordyceps 10:1 amongst other supplements that her trainer and nutritionist give
she just broke a world record
Hot damnnn
for best results of these test you would take the test about 3-4 weeks apart and judge intake of cordyceps vs non action of activity
Thanks for the tip!
I like to take my shrooms in powder form in tea. Seems to go down much better than pills. Also its cheaper.
Neat!

Could be cordyceps! I’ve heard it has lung regeneration properties. You aren’t the first person I’ve seen that say their asthma got better.
hi there shin
loved your videos. So i have hogh heart rate. More than 80 bpm. I cannot do exercises because my heart rate goes up with simple movements.

@@ShoshinShow thank for your kind reply.
In my case everytime i take 350-700mg of cardyceps I feel like hyperventelation. Hard to inheal. Tryed 2 different brands the same :(((
I did them for 2 months starting last ski season and saw a huge benefit in recovery and endurance coming from a kinda lazy pre-season. About to try taking for another 2 months now that I've picked up running more seriously and am curious to see the VO2 max changes over this time.
Incredible! Love that you’re experimenting. Keep us posted on your progress and efforts!
Do you have any update about the Vo2 max changes?
I have found objectively it does, I can do more power in short bursts 3-5 minutes but it's impossible for me to say if it's from cordyceps or placebo effect. The questions is, if the results are real and measurable then does it matter?
That’s an excellent question! I’m all for the placebo effect - such a powerful mechanism. Keep up those gains!!
Cordyceps are also very good for the kidneys 😊😊
Oh cool!
Some research says caffeine acts as both a vasoconstrictor and vasodilator.
🤔 share the links bro imma read up
another great experiment! did you like running 1km or biking 1km more?
Biking! But I took breaks in between. With running, I went everyday. So I’ll have to try biking with no breaks and running with breaks to see which I truly like better. Great question 👍😄
I have some gnarly dreams on cordyceps, I also feel slightly manic.
So interesting!

Doing tests on cordyceps sinensis is a waste of time, as 99% of people can’t afford it, unless you where paying a lot of money it was not sinensis
What’s “a lot of money”? 💸🤑🧐
Does it matter? If it helps her endurance, doesn't matter what kind of cordyceps they are.
Not everyone is the same. Some people works, Because of genes. like people cannot tolerated gluten.
Do what works for you bro
You should only be buying them from Paul Stamets.
That’s a rare take!
