Cordyceps Endurance Performance Randomized TrialEdible fungi are rich in a wide array of bioactive compounds, and a growing body of evidence suggests that they possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, anti-aging, and other beneficial properties.1Shu MY (2025)Effects of fungal supplementation on endurance, immune function, and hematological profiles in adult athletes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Cordyceps Endurance Performance Randomized TrialAlthough an increasing number of studies have investigated the potential benefits of fungal supplements for athletes, there is still a lack of comprehensive reviews that systematically synthesize the available evidence.1Shu MY (2025)Effects of fungal supplementation on endurance, immune function, and hematological profiles in adult athletes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Cordyceps Endurance Performance Randomized TrialMeta-analysis showed that Cordyceps sinensis supplementation significantly improved endurance performance ( p = 0.05), ventilatory threshold ( p = 0.03), and VO 2 peak ( p = 0.04), indicating enhanced aerobic capacity with low heterogeneity.1Shu MY (2025)Effects of fungal supplementation on endurance, immune function, and hematological profiles in adult athletes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
