Cordychi
Host Defense Cordychi is a mushroom-based supplement featuring a blend of Cordyceps and Reishi, each at 500 mg per serving. This product receives an N+ Score of 46, resulting in an "F" grade, which suggests a below-average quality rating. While both Cordyceps and Reishi are recognized for their potential adaptogenic properties, the 500 mg dosage for each ingredient is typically considered underdosed compared to amounts used in many clinical studies. The product contains only two ingredients with 100% label transparency, but its formula completeness is limited. It may appeal to those interested in a basic, combined mushroom supplement at a modest dosage.
