Proprietary Cs-4 Strain
CordyMax Cs-4 is a standardized natural
product produced by a proprietary fermentation process using an isolated, scientifically-supported
strain of mycelia (Paecilomyces hepiali Chen, Cs-4) Cs-4 mycelia (the underground
portion of the mushroom) is extracted from fresh Cordyceps sinensis (Berk) Sacc.
collected from Qinghai province, China.
Fifteen years of biological and clinical
studies confirm that Cs-4 is the fermentation product that most closely resembles
the natural product. Recent published scientific studies document that Cs-4
influences a broad range of physiological effects associated with promoting
energy and stamina.* In 1987, Cs-4 was the first "Class I" Traditional Chinese
Medicine approved by the Chinese ministry of Health. "Class I" Traditional Chinese
medicines are rigorously evaluated for safety and efficacy in pharmacology,
toxicology and clinical trials. Cs-4 (known as Jin Shui Bao) was also placed
under intellectual property protection by the Chinese government in 1995. Pharmanex
has the exclusive right to market CordyMax Cs-4 outside of China.
Scientific Support
Numerous scientific studies suggest that
CordyMax Cs-4 can promote natural vitality through more efficient enzyme activity
of red blood cells, and promote healthy lung function.* Additionally, CordyMax
Cs-4 increases the body's resistance to daily environmental and occupational
stresses.* Cs-4 has been shown in both human and animal studies, to support
the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD).* This support of the enzyme's proven
ability to scavenge oxygen free radicals may explain the traditional use of
the Cordyceps sinensis as a dietary supplement to improve vitality and quality
of life.*
Recommended Adult Use
CordyMax Cs-4 may be used by persons with
busy and hectic lifestyles and the elderly--those desiring greater stamina and
vitality levels without stimulation of the central nervous system.
Directions for Use
As a dietary supplement for adults, take
two capsules two or three times daily with food and drink. CordyMax Cs-4 should
be taken regularly for consistent results. Mild effects may be evident within
one week, while significant effects may take 3 to 6 weeks to become evident.

Adverse Effects
With the exception of one case of allergic
skin reaction, no other adverse effects have been reported from clinicians and
hospital records in China since the initial introduction in 1989. CordyMax Cs-4
has no reported Central Nervous System or Gastro Intestinal effects. Clinical
trials revealed very few side effects to supplementation with CordyMax Cs-4.
Some subjects noted a sensation of thirst which decreased with continued use,
one subject reported slight nausea, and several subjects noted heartburn if
CordyMax Cs-4 was taken before meals; all these effects were well-tolerated
by the subjects, and none of these subjects discontinued supplementation because
of these effects.
