Question 1: What about Cordyceps sinensis in Shangri-La, Yunnan?

Cordyceps sinensis is indeed produced in Yunnan, concentrated in three or four counties in Diqing and Zhongdian districts. It belongs to Alpine Cordyceps, and its color is generally brownish yellow. This kind of cordyceps is not the best-looking, but it works well. However, there are other kinds of cordyceps and artificial cordyceps in this area. Artificial Cordyceps sinensis and Cordyceps sinensis belong to different species and are not real Cordyceps sinensis. Other kinds of Cordyceps sinensis may belong to one of more than 400 kinds of Cordyceps sinensis known in China, not Cordyceps sinensis, and some kinds may be toxic. Can you consult an experienced pharmacist or go to the identification method? Tibet mall? Or? China Chinese Medicine Forum? Look at the articles and consultations in these places.

Question 2: Is Cordyceps a kind of insect?

Cordyceps sinensis is a kind of fungus, which is a complex of Cordyceps sinensis parasitic on the larvae and larvae. In appearance, Cordyceps sinensis is integrated. There is only one kind of worm, but it is not Cordyceps sinensis. This question can't be explained clearly with the mouth. Please look at the pictures I found in Tibet Mall. The features in the picture are clear and can be used as a reference.

Question 3: What is the Cordyceps sinensis that just came down? About how much? How many grams after drying?

I wanted to send pictures, but unfortunately I couldn't send more pictures. The newly dug Cordyceps sinensis is soft, covered with a layer of soil and soft skin (this is an image metaphor). The weight is not certain, depending on the place of origin and size, the weight varies greatly. The biggest one I have ever dug is as thick as a cigarette, and the smallest one is only three millimeters in diameter. After drying, the volume will be obviously reduced, and I estimate that the least one will be reduced by more than 1/3. After drying, I saw that the maximum weight is 1 g, and the minimum weight is only 0. 1 g (it may be lighter, and my scale can only reach 0. 1 g).

Question 4: Can freshly picked Cordyceps sinensis be used directly?

Yeah, well, seeing that I'm alive and kicking, I know I can eat fresh food. . . (laughs. . )

Question 5: If you sell the fresh tree you just picked, how much is a tree?

There is a big difference in size and appearance. The best I know is that someone sells it for nearly 100 yuan a gram (of course, the new grass is wet, and it will be more than this price when it is dry). Last year, I heard that the cheapest is only a few dollars a gram (it's very humid, basically only grass or broken bits can't see the scraps of insects).
