Impact of Cordyceps militaris on Immunity

Cordyceps militaris is a remarkable fungus known for its medicinal properties. We have already published articles where we have analyzed in detail the confirmed scientific research and irrefutable data that this fungus can help with:

  • Inflammatory diseases: Cordyceps militaris has powerful anti-inflammatory properties that can help with arthritis, colitis, and other inflammatory conditions.
  • Allergies and asthma: The fungus can reduce symptoms of allergies and asthma by suppressing the degranulation of cells responsible for allergic reactions.
  • Cardiovascular diseases: Cordyceps militaris lowers blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels, improving the cardiovascular system.
  • Gastrointestinal problems: Consuming Cordyceps militaris reduces diarrhea and gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Conditions associated with weakened immunity: The fungus increases the activity of immune cells, which helps fight infections and strengthens the immune system.

In addition, Cordyceps militaris contains a number of beneficial substances that contribute to strengthening the immune system (polysaccharides, beta-glucans, cordycepin and adenosine, sterols).

A recent study published in the scientific journal Scientific Reports in April 2024, which was conducted on 40 volunteers in Thailand for 8 weeks, showed that taking Cordyceps significantly improves immunity even in healthy people. Cordyceps significantly increased the activity of natural killer cells (NK cells): in men, the activity of these cells increased by 34.11%, and in women by 39.5%. A decrease in the level of inflammatory cytokines (proteins that regulate the formation and growth of cells) was also noted, which indicates the anti-inflammatory effect of the fungus.

According to research, Cordyceps militaris stimulates the immune response through several mechanisms:

  • Activation of NK cells: These cells are critical for fighting viral infections and cancer cells. Studies have shown that NK cell activity is significantly increased after taking Cordyceps militaris.
  • Reduction of inflammatory cytokines: Cordyceps militaris lowers the level of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β and IL-6, which helps to reduce inflammation in the body.
  • Increased interferon levels: Cordyceps militaris increases the secretion of interferons, which are important for activating immune cells and fighting infections.
  • Activation of macrophages: These cells are responsible for destroying pathogens and damaged cells. Cordycepin, one of the active components of the fungus, stimulates their activity.

Thus, Cordyceps militaris can strengthen the immune system, protect the body from various diseases, become an alternative, natural, immunostimulating supplement without harming the body.
