haha i spent like 100 something on some supplements a month ago. i got like 100 bucks left. a portion of that money is reserved for some drive and like 5 two lb bags of dextrose. I run out of those fairly quick.

So is this vegetarian friendly? Can there be a little more explanation of how the cordyceps are harvested or grown?

For instance, if it was harvested from insects, then I guess technically a vegetarian couldn't consume it. If its a laboratory grown fungus though (like a mushroom), a vegetarian would.

Your thoughts dirk?

from what I understand, it is almost impossible to get quality wild harvested cordyceps.

read this write up on cordygen5



not that AN does it the same, but it might be a good starting point.

Cultured in a laboratory- grown in a vermiculite base, and flushed with DI water to promote growth....

I will ask my cousin as far as the vegetarian question- she is a strict vegan:think:

Well, according to that growth process, it would be just a fungus. It would not have a parasitic relationship w/ a mineral (vermiculite), as it would w/ a worm/insect. In that case, it would be vegetarian friendly, and according to the definition of a vegan (It's only animal tissue and byproducts that are avoided), should be friendly to them to.

Thanks for the info dirk!

Let me know if you think there are any other concerns w/ it that would make it not vegetarian (such as using insect parts/residue in the vermiculite, etc). Would the artificially cultured cordyceps have any remnants of living organism in it from insects or anything else?

Understandable :)

Vermiculite is just one of the mediums that can be used- silkworm residue or certain cereal grains are also acceptable mediums, but more than likely the source used was not insect-derived- too many variables involved for mass cultivation.....
