Why this happens
Both chaga and cordyceps have 'anti-platelet' effects, meaning they slow down blood clotting. When used together, this effect is additive. Additionally, both fungi can mimic or enhance the effects of insulin, leading to a combined lowering of blood glucose.
What you should do
It is generally safe for healthy individuals to take these together in moderate amounts, but you should use caution. If you are scheduled for surgery, stop taking both at least two weeks beforehand. If you take medication for diabetes or blood-thinning drugs (like warfarin or aspirin), speak to your doctor before combining these supplements.
