Its nickname is Chinese caterpillar fungus. Mushrooms are also funguses (fungi), and we eat those and put them into soups and other foods. You can read about it at these URLs: (1) Andrew Weil, M.D. -- http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/REM00021 He sells an "energy formula" of 3 ingredients, and 1 of the ingredients is cordyceps. http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/ART00426 (2) Traditional Chinese explanation -- http://tcm.health-info.org/Herbology.Materia.Medica/dongchongxiacao-properties.htm
