Forest Cardio Power

Forest Cardio Power combines turmeric extract powder with dried Cordyceps militaris fruiting-body powder in one capsule, designed to support endurance and everyday cardiovascular wellbeing as part of an active lifestyle. It brings together a well-studied botanical extract and a functional mushroom that human studies have looked at for oxygen use during exercise.Each capsule contains 0.5g of Turmeric (Curcuma longa) extract and Cordyceps Militaris mushroom dried fruiting-body powder mix. Recommended daily amount- 1-2 capsules.
You can take up to 4 capsules per day.

Turmeric and Cordyceps Benefits: What This Blend Supports

1. Endurance: Early human studies suggest Cordyceps may help delay the onset of fatigue during sustained effort.
2. Oxygen Use: Cordyceps militaris is studied for its support of oxygen use and oxygen saturation during exertion.
3. Muscle Recovery: A 2026 review of the human studies reports a smaller rise in creatine kinase, a marker of muscle micro-damage, after exercise.
4. Inflammatory Balance: Turmeric is one of the most studied plant ingredients for inflammatory pathways and oxidative stress.
5. Immune Function: Cordyceps militaris increased natural killer (NK) cell activity in a 2024 controlled trial in healthy adults.

Detailed Benefits of Each Ingredient

Turmeric (Curcuma longa):
- Anti-Inflammatory: Contains curcumin, one of the most studied plant compounds for inflammatory pathways.
- Antioxidant: Curcumin shows antioxidant activity in laboratory research, helping protect cells from oxidative stress.
- Absorption: Curcumin is poorly absorbed on its own; taking it with a fat-containing meal substantially improves absorption. Cordyceps Militaris:
- Oxygen Use: Studied for its support of oxygen use and oxygen saturation during exertion.
- Immune Function: Increased NK cell activity in an 8-week controlled trial in healthy adults.
- Energy and Endurance: Supports endurance and oxygen use during exertion, which benefits cardiovascular performance.

Why Choose Our Supplement?

Our supplement combines turmeric extract with Cordyceps militaris fruiting body in one capsule, for people who want endurance and everyday wellbeing support from two well-studied ingredients. Each ingredient is carefully sourced: the Cordyceps is dried fruiting body rather than mycelium grown on grain, and the turmeric is a concentrated extract. Taken daily as part of an active lifestyle, it is designed to support endurance, oxygen use during exercise and a balanced inflammatory response. It is a food supplement, not a treatment for any heart or blood-pressure condition, and it does not replace medical care.

How to Use Forest Cardio Power

Take 1–2 capsules daily with water, in the morning or 1 hour before physical activity. Forest Cardio Power is formulated with Cordyceps militaris and turmeric extract, chosen to support cardiovascular function, oxygen utilisation, and endurance. The Cordyceps component supports endurance and oxygen use during exertion; the turmeric component contributes to a reduced inflammatory load. For best results, use consistently for at least 4–6 weeks — the cardiovascular adaptogenic effects accumulate over time rather than acting as an immediate stimulant. This supplement is not a replacement for cardiovascular exercise or medical treatment. If you have a pre-existing cardiovascular condition, consult your doctor before use. Store in a cool, dry place. Vegan-friendly with no artificial additives.

What Is in This Blend

Each capsule contains 0.5 g of turmeric (Curcuma longa) extract together with dried Cordyceps militaris fruiting-body powder. This is a two-ingredient formula rather than a multi-mushroom blend — a botanical extract paired with a single functional mushroom.
Cordyceps militaris is the species most studied for energy metabolism, cordycepin content and oxygen utilisation, and it is the one behind most modern Cordyceps research. It is worth noting the species distinction: Cordyceps sinensis, the wild Himalayan species grown on insect larvae, is rare and effectively impossible to buy authentically at supplement prices, and most products labelled "sinensis" are something else. This blend uses militaris, cultivated to full fruiting body on a vegetarian substrate.
Turmeric contributes curcuminoids, among the most studied plant compounds for inflammatory pathways. Curcumin is poorly absorbed on its own, which is worth knowing — absorption is substantially improved by taking it with a fat-containing meal.

Fruiting Body, Not Mycelium on Grain

The Cordyceps content is dried fruiting body rather than mycelium grown on grain. Because a grain substrate cannot be separated from the mycelium it is milled into the finished powder, producing something largely starch by weight with a fraction of the cordycepin. The vivid orange-red colour of genuine Cordyceps militaris fruiting body is the visual giveaway.

How to Take a Blend Capsule

Take 1–2 capsules daily with food, and do not exceed 4 capsules per day. Taking them with a meal reduces the chance of digestive upset, which is the most commonly reported issue with any milled-mushroom capsule on an empty stomach.
Introduce the blend on its own for several days before adding any other supplement. This is the practical drawback of a multi-ingredient capsule: if something disagrees with you, a multi-ingredient formula makes it considerably harder to work out which ingredient was responsible. Starting one product at a time preserves your ability to tell.
As with functional mushrooms generally, benefit is associated with sustained daily use over weeks rather than with any single dose. Consistency matters more than quantity, and a modest amount taken every day serves better than an occasional larger one.

Blend or Single Species?

A blend divides its fill weight between its ingredients, so each species is present in a smaller amount than it would be in a dedicated single-species product. That is a reasonable trade when you want broad coverage in one capsule and do not want to maintain a shelf of separate jars.
It is a poor trade if you are targeting one specific outcome and want a meaningful amount of a particular species — in that case buying that mushroom on its own gives you both a higher amount and full control over what you combine it with. Our supplement stacking guide covers building a combination deliberately, and the mushroom blends collection compares the ready-made formulas.

Storage

Store in the sealed container in a cool, dry, dark place. Milled mushroom material is considerably more moisture-sensitive than whole dried pieces because it exposes far more surface area, so avoid humid storage such as a bathroom cabinet — that humidity swing is the most common reason a capsule product clumps or degrades early. Properly stored, capsules keep for two years.

Safety and Contraindications

Because a blend combines several ingredients, it also combines their contraindications. Read the full ingredient list on this page and check it against your own situation rather than assuming a blend is gentler than its parts.
Cordyceps is immune-modulating, so anyone with an autoimmune condition should speak with their doctor before use, and it may interact with immunosuppressant medication. Cordyceps may also lower blood sugar and interact with diabetes medication. Discontinue at least two weeks before scheduled surgery.
Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Anyone with a mushroom allergy should avoid these products. This is a food supplement, not a medicine, and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Additional Note on Turmeric

Turmeric may increase bleeding risk and can interact with anticoagulant and antiplatelet medication — a caution that compounds with Cordyceps' own effect on clotting, so discontinue well before scheduled surgery. Turmeric may also aggravate gallbladder problems and is not recommended for anyone with gallstones or bile duct obstruction. It can reduce the absorption of iron, and may interact with diabetes medication.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this blend combine, and why? It pairs turmeric extract powder with dried Cordyceps militaris fruiting body powder — turmeric for its established anti-inflammatory profile, Cordyceps for its studied effects on oxygen utilisation and circulation — encapsulated together for cardiovascular and general vitality support.

Is it safe to take with heart medication? Because it's specifically formulated for cardiovascular support, anyone on heart medication or blood thinners should check with their doctor before use, since turmeric can interact with anticoagulants.

How long before I notice an effect? Most users report noticing changes in energy and general wellbeing within 2–4 weeks of consistent daily use, in line with how both turmeric and Cordyceps are understood to work cumulatively.
