CordyMax Cs-4
History of Cordyceps Sinensis
The mushroom Cordyceps sinensis, which produces the proprietary active ingredient in CordyMax Cs-4, has a rich, two thousand year history. For generations, Cordyceps sinensis has been considered the premier agent in the Chinese culture for restoring energy, promoting longevity and improving the quality of life.This natural material is extremely rare. The mushroom grows primarily on the Tibetan plateau at altitudes above 14,000 feet. It takes five to seven years for the mushroom to complete its life cycle and produce the natural product. Due to the scarcity and high price of Cordyceps sinensis, its use was reserved exclusively for the Emperor's Palace. For two thousand years, Cordyceps sinensis was virtually unknown in the Western world.

Proprietary Cs-4 Strain
CordyMax Cs-4 is a standardized natural product produced by a proprietary fermentation process using an isolated, scientifically-supported strain of mycelia (Paecilomyces hepiali Chen, Cs-4) Cs-4 mycelia (the underground portion of the mushroom) is extracted from fresh Cordyceps sinensis (Berk) Sacc. collected from Qinghai province, China.
Fifteen years of biological and clinical studies confirm that Cs-4 is the fermentation product that most closely resembles the natural product. Recent published scientific studies document that Cs-4 influences a broad range of physiological effects associated with promoting energy and stamina.* In 1987, Cs-4 was the first "Class I" Traditional Chinese Medicine approved by the Chinese ministry of Health. "Class I" Traditional Chinese medicines are rigorously evaluated for safety and efficacy in pharmacology, toxicology and clinical trials. Cs-4 (known as Jin Shui Bao) was also placed under intellectual property protection by the Chinese government in 1995. Pharmanex has the exclusive right to market CordyMax Cs-4 outside of China.
Scientific Support
Numerous scientific studies suggest that CordyMax Cs-4 can promote natural vitality through more efficient enzyme activity of red blood cells, and promote healthy lung function.* Additionally, CordyMax Cs-4 increases the body's resistance to daily environmental and occupational stresses.* Cs-4 has been shown in both human and animal studies, to support the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD).* This support of the enzyme's proven ability to scavenge oxygen free radicals may explain the traditional use of the Cordyceps sinensis as a dietary supplement to improve vitality and quality of life.*
