∙ 14y agoCaterpillar fungus is a traditional medicine that has been widely used as a tonic and/or medicine by the Chinese for hundreds of years.
Some people believe the caterpillar fungus cures tuberculosis, coughing, anemia, and back and knee pains
The caterpillar fungus is mainly used as a tonic to increase strength or for rejuvenation after a long serious injury. Some also believe that the fungus can also reduce stress. If scientific research supports these claims and identifies the active ingredients produced by the fungus it may become very valuable in modern medicine. Scientists have already identified several compounds isolated that might be useful when purified as drugs to combat some types of cancer and lymphocytes [natural killer cells].
Fungus Penicillium chrysogenum was first used successfully to treat an infection caused by a bacterium.
