    Wow I thought it was far-fetched that in the Last of Us the Cordyceps fungus gave the infected extra strength but there’s truth to it. It’s like a natural steroid. This fact combined with how cordyceps takes over insects minds in real life truly makes the Last of Us a masterpiece based on scientific facts

      There are 400 cordyceps species, the ones being researched for health benefits in people are Cordyceps sinensis and Cordyceps militaris.
      The fungus Cordyceps sinensis has been described in old Chinese medical books from ancient times, and is also found in Tibetan medicine. It is a rare combination of a caterpillar and a fungus and found at altitudes above 4500m in Sikkim. Traditional healers and local people of North Sikkim recommend the mushroom, i.e., Yarsa gumba, Keera jhar (C. sinensis) for all diseases either as a single drug or combined with other herb. The fungus Penicillium from which the antibiotic penicillin is derived is the most famous medicine of the age, and the most potent hallucinogen agent Lysergic acid diethylamide (LCD), has also been derived from the plant - parasite ergot fungus Claviceps purpurea.

      Not how evolution works. It's the path of least resistance, maintaining intelligence is more resistance. It's only in the particular circumstance where increased intelligence literally saves a species, that intelligence is evolved. Think of it this way, why doesn't all viruses kill their hosts? It's a path with increased resistance, that's why viruses evolve to not bother their hosts too much, because all the virus "wants" is to propagate by replication, like any lifeform would. If, and only if, intelligence leads to increased or improved propagation, only then can intelligence evolve. If a random mutation which increases intelligence imposes an increased resistance to propagation, it will be deemed a "less fit" mutation for survival. There's no inherent benefit with increased intelligence, it just happened to be.

    Cordyceps was the first "natural" supplement I ever took that immediately and intensely worked. I was just starting out running after getting sober. I really liked it, but I didn't have the stamina, especially in my lungs, to go as far as I wanted to early on. Started taking this stuff (powdered, just mixed in water) and the first time I went out I had twice the lung capacity and my head stayed calmer. It was incredible, and way past anything I could attribute to to placebo. Unfortunately for me, it had the side effect of giving me horrible GI issues after a few days use. But I'll never forget how impressed I was with it.
