Dr. Zhao Xinju
Cordyceps flower (Cordyceps militaris) helps reinforce healthy qi, tonify the lungs and spleen, and nourish the kidneys. For individuals in a sub-healthy state, it can enhance immune function and improve resistance to disease. Thus, it offers certain benefits for people prone to colds or fatigue, as well as for those engaged in mentally demanding work. Additionally, cordyceps flower provides supportive therapeutic effects for patients with lumbago, knee soreness, and renal insufficiency. It also demonstrates notable hypoglycemic and antihypertensive effects, offering adjunctive benefits in the management of hypertension and cerebral thrombosis. By reinforcing lung qi and exerting anti-inflammatory effects, cordyceps flower can be used to treat bronchitis and emphysema.
