CordyMax Cs-4® Bottle (Canada)

CordyMax Cs-4 is a standardized Cordyceps sinensis mushroom extract supplement supporting physical stamina, oxygen utilization, and cellular energy production. Cordyceps has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries; the Cs-4 strain is the most clinically studied variant, with published research demonstrating improved exercise capacity and reduced fatigue in adults. Each capsule delivers a standardized dose of Cs-4 extract, ensuring consistent potency across every batch through Nu Skin's 6S Quality Process.

What Makes CordyMax Different

Cordyceps supplements vary wildly in quality — many use mycelium grown on grain substrates rather than actual fruiting body or clinically validated strains. CordyMax uses the Cs-4 strain specifically, which is the strain used in the published clinical trials. Nu Skin's standardized extraction ensures the same active compound profile in every capsule, unlike whole-mushroom powders where potency varies between batches.

A randomized controlled trial published in the Chinese Journal of Integrative Medicine (2010) showed that Cs-4 supplementation improved oxygen uptake (VO2 max) and exercise capacity in older adults over 12 weeks.

Key Ingredients

Cordyceps sinensis Cs-4 Extract: Standardized for active cordycepin and adenosine content. Supports mitochondrial ATP production and oxygen utilization at the cellular level.

How to Use

Take 2 capsules twice daily with meals. For exercise performance support, take 2 capsules 30–60 minutes before activity. Consistent daily use for 4–8 weeks builds cumulative effects on energy and stamina. CordyMax also appears in the ageLOC R² Day formula — if you're already taking R² Day, you're getting Cs-4 extract as part of that formula.

Frequently Asked Questions

Order from nubestskin.com — no membership needed. Ships from the official Nu Skin Canada warehouse. Standard shipping: CA$2.99, free over CA$79. Delivery: 3–5 business days.

No — CordyMax doesn't contain caffeine or stimulants. It supports energy production at the mitochondrial level, not through CNS stimulation.
