Cordyceps is a herb that is regarded as rare and exquisite, calling around SGD3,000 for 37.5g of the relatively good quality version. It has the ability to nourish the Yin of Lungs and boost the Yang of Kidneys according to TCM, thus suitable to use in cases of erectile dysfunction, spermatorrhea, chronic cough, asthma etc. Modern scientific research has shown that this herb possesses a high content of androgens (male hormones) and arsenic (chemical element), thus it is not recommended for regular consumption by children and pregnant women unless under professional guidance.
