Have you ever heard of cordyceps? For many of us, our knowledge of cordyceps – a category of fungi that includes hundreds of species - may be limited to video games or shows, where this fungi is the source of brain-altering apocalypses. And though it is parasitic to other insects and fungi, don’t worry, it doesn’t actually pose a threat to humans. In fact, cordyceps can be fascinating and helpful species! In this podcast episode, we’ll be talking with William Padilla-Brown, CEO and founder of MycoSymbiotics, on the work he’s doing to explore cordyceps, and discussing some questions and misconceptions about cordyceps along the way.
We want to remind listeners to always exercise caution when foraging and introducing new medicinal plants and fungi into your routine. Do your research, consult and learn from fungi experts, and talk with your healthcare providers.
