運動後總是特別喘？最新研究：蛹蟲草可能與心肺耐力表現有關
高強度運動後攝氧效率不佳、疲勞感提早出現，一直是許多運動愛好者想解決的課題。傳統醫學中早已被廣泛使用的蛹蟲草（Cordyceps militaris），近年也逐漸成為運動科學研究關注的對象。以下就是一篇相關研究的重點整理。 🔬 研究怎麼做的 這項研究發表於《膳食補充品期刊》（Journal of Dietary Supplements），由美國北卡羅來納大學研究團隊主持，採雙盲、安慰劑對照設計。研究團隊找來28名受試者，隨機分成兩組，分別攝取安慰劑或每日4公克的蛹蟲草複方，並比較受試者攝取一週後與三週後的數據變化。 研究結果顯示什麼？ 研究團隊指出，攝取一週後,兩組受試者的數據差異並不明顯；但持續攝取三週之後,蛹蟲草組受試者的部分運動表現數據出現以下變化： 最大攝氧量（VO2 Max）：相較安慰劑組，身體運動時的攝氧效率數據提升了11%。 力竭時間：蛹蟲草組受試者在達到力竭前，平均能多維持約70秒的最大強度運動。 （研究團隊也提醒，完整數據與研究方法可參考原始文獻 PMC5236007） 💡 蘑菇蕈息怎麼看這項研究 值得注意的是，這項研究也呼應了天然萃取物領域一個常見的觀察：效果並非一蹴可幾，持續攝取才是重點。蛹蟲草之所以受到研究團隊青睞，部分原因來自其中的獨特成分「蟲草素」（Cordycepin），這種化合物的分子結構與細胞能量代謝中扮演關鍵角色的ATP分子相似,也因此持續吸引研究人員投入探討。 不過如同研究所示，單次、賽前才攝取,並不足以觀察到上述變化；若想了解持續攝取天然萃取物後可能帶來的體驗，通常需要數週時間讓身體逐步適應。 想替訓練日常增添新的嘗試嗎？🚴♂️ 為了讓萃取物中的蟲草素與多醣體維持最高保留濃度，蘑菇蕈息的萃取皆於無菌實驗室中，以精密雙重萃取工藝製成，並堅持只取100%蛹蟲草子實體，絕不使用菌絲體或穀物填充料。 👇 了解蘑菇蕈息的蛹蟲草萃取 本文引用之研究數據，為第三方學術文獻對蛹蟲草物種與蟲草素成分之科學觀察結果，非本產品之臨床測試數據，個人使用本產品之效果亦可能因人而異；本產品非藥品，不具醫療效能，不能取代均衡飲食與正常作息。 繼續閱讀…

The Clinical Proof That Changed Everything: How the Lion's Mane Mushroom Improves Memory
The Clinical Proof That Changed Everything: How the Lion's Mane Mushroom Improves Memory
那項改變一切的臨床證據：猴頭菇與認知評估指標的關鍵發現 「聰明菇」、「大腦生物駭客」這類詞彙近來在坊間流傳甚廣，但背後究竟有多少扎實的臨床證據支撐？一項在日本進行的指標性研究，提供了目前文獻中最清晰的觀察之一：猴頭菇（Hericium erinaceus）在持續攝取的前提下，確實能為認知評估指標帶來顯著且穩定的變化。 🔬 研究概述 這項發表於《Phytotherapy Research》期刊的雙盲、安慰劑對照臨床試驗，追蹤了30位年齡介於50至80歲、於認知評估中被列為需要額外關注的日本受試者。研究團隊將受試者分為兩組：對照組服用安慰劑，實驗組則連續16週、每日攝取3公克由猴頭菇子實體萃取而成的粉末。 結果顯示，攝取猴頭菇的實驗組在整個試驗期間，其認知評估量表分數呈現顯著且持續的上升趨勢。然而，研究團隊最關鍵的發現發生在試驗結束之後——當受試者停止攝取猴頭菇滿4週後回訪評估，量表分數竟開始逐漸回落。 💡 蘑菇蕈息的觀察與思考 從這項經典研究中，我們讀出兩件深刻影響蘑菇蕈息生產哲學的事： 關鍵活性存在於子實體之中。 與部分品牌強調「菌絲體才是關鍵」的說法相反，這項該領域最具代表性的臨床研究，使用的正是猴頭菇的子實體萃取物。這說明了子實體中所富含的猴頭菌酮（Hericenones）分子，本身即具備充分的研究基礎——實在沒有理由為摻雜穀物基質與澱粉的稀釋產品，支付溢價。 持續攝取與吸收效率同等重要。 停止攝取後量表分數回落的現象提醒我們：認知層面的維持，如同體能訓練一般,需要日復一日的投入,而非一次性的補充。 為了讓產品的品質超越研究中所使用的原型，蘑菇蕈息並不滿足於單純的乾燥粉末。我們在無菌實驗室中，親自執行精密的雙重萃取工藝——結合水萃與酒萃兩道工序，完整破解猴頭菇堅韌的幾丁質細胞壁，將猴頭菌酮以更理想的型態釋出，成就一款生物利用率更高、吸收效率更快的萃取產品。 PubMed全文連結（PMID: 18844328） 準備好為自己的日常投入更多用心了嗎？從今天起，用一份工藝透明、萃取精純、濃度扎實的猴頭菇萃取液，陪伴你走過每一個需要專注與清晰的日子。👇 [點此選購蘑菇蕈息猴頭菇萃取液] 本文所引用之臨床研究結果僅為學術文獻之客觀陳述，非本產品之療效承諾。本產品為一般食品，未經衛生福利部核准，不具預防、改善、治療疾病之功效，亦不能取代醫療診斷、治療或用藥。 繼續閱讀…
