Typical
Case Histories Where Cordyceps Sinensis Hyphas Mycelium
Has Been Used to Treat Chronic Bronchitis
Mr.
Tsao, male, 68 years, has had chronic bronchitis for 18 years.
During the last 7 years, patient has experienced worsened
coughing and expectoration of sputum, coughing up about 20
mouthfuls of sputum daily. While coughing up sputum, the patient's
face typically becomes red, experiences abdominal sweating,
and must expend great energy to cough up a mouthful of sputum.
Patient feels a shortness of breath after mild exercise; this
symptom often affects patient's activities and sleep. After
beginning to take Cordyceps Sinensis, patient described decreased
coughing, a clear reduction in sputum to 2-3 mouthfuls daily,
increased ease in coughing up sputum, and a clear improvement
in breathing. Patient is able to sleep well at night, has
a feeling of well-being, is in good spirits, has increased
appetite, improved digestion, and often feels hungry. Besides
eliminating cough, reducing sputum, and calming breathing,
Cordyceps Sinensis may also have a certain soothing and tonic
effect.
Mr.

his illness had increased in severity over the most recent
three years and main symptoms included coughing and the
expectoration of sputum. Sputum was of a thick consistency,
intermixed white and yellow in color, and difficult to cough
up. Every 24 hours patient would cough up approximately
60 ml of sputum. He gasped and experienced chest pains while
performing movement, feeling short of breath. Lung function
as measured was: 3212 ml vital capacity, FEvl/FEv 49%, FEv3/FEv
98%, MBC 56623 ml, MBC (%) 58%, 3423 ml residual lung capacity.
After the patient began taking Cordyceps Sinensis Hyphas
Mycelium, he experienced decreased production of sputum
and gradually lessened coughing. Daily sputum production
declined from 60 ml to only 2 ml; sputum became more liquid
and easier to expectorate. Gasping and shortness of breath
showed a gradual decrease, while whistling noise in patient's
lungs disappeared. Although the patient originally experienced
gasping and chest pains while walking or climbing stairs,
he is now able to run 200 meters every morning. His lung
function after treatment was: 3284 ml vital capacity, FEvl/FEv
58%, FEv3/FEv 87%, MBC 69891 ml, MBC (%) 4%, 3013 ml residual
lung capacity.

Cordycep
Sinensis (CS) is a precious tonic found in the high plateau
of southwestern China at 3000-4000 meters above sea level.
In its natural form, CS is a composite of fungal infested
dead bat-moth caterpillar body and the fruiting body of
a parasite fungus. Fungal spores invade the hibernating
larvae underground in the fall, germinating and then emerging
from the dead caterpillar’s body in the next summer
to form the composite. The Chinese call it Winter-worm,
summer-plant, or Tong Chung Shia Chao.
CS
has been used in Chinese traditional medicine for over 1,000
years to strengthen and rebuilt one’s health after
chronic illness and to treat lung disease, impotence, neurothenia
and to restore renal functions.
Recent
studies have shown that CS is beneficial to cardiovascular
health, as well as immunal, lung, kidney, and sexual functions.
It is an excellent tonic supplement overall vitality and
counter aging.
High
quality natural CS can cost over $1,000 per pound due to
its scarcity. However, recently developed cultured CS using
bioengineering processes have significantly lowered the
cost and increased its availability to consumers.
The
efficacy of the cultured and the natural CS are comparable
according to studies. Holsome Teas and Herbs selects only
the highest quality products for its consumers. We market
