Hi folks, I’ve been training for a marathon and someone at my gym mentioned cordyceps for endurance. Does it really help with energy and stamina, or is it more of a placebo effect? Curious what athletes here think.

Hey! I’m a cyclist and I’ve been using cordyceps for over a year to support my training. It’s not instant like caffeine, but the sustained energy and quicker recovery are very real. I order from Amanita Universe https://amanita-universe.us/ — their mushrooms supplies include vegetarian-grown cordyceps that are clean and potent. I noticed a difference in lung capacity and overall performance within the first couple weeks. Definitely worth trying if you want natural support without the crash.
