How would you suggest taking the 10:1 Cordyceps?

Empty stomach? No coffee? If I have had coffee earlier how long should I wait until I should take the Cordyceps? Same question regarding food. And how long should I expect for it to last?

Awesome thank you, much appreciated. I had heard something about cordyceps and caffeine working against each other but I will take your word for it.

Cordycepin is 3'-deoxyadenosine. Caffeine is an adenosine receptor antagonist. So some people say that they antagonize each other. However, cordycepin acts at the adenosine A3 receptor, where caffeine is non-selective and acts at all of them. So there might be some competition at that one receptor. However, they do not cancel each other out effect-wise.
