What are the benefits of Lion's Mane?

Lion's Mane is one of, or maybe the most esteemed of the medicinal mushrooms. It is typically known for its anti-anxiety, focus, and mood supporting qualities. It is also known to improve memory, reduce neurodegeneration, and reduce the inflammatory stress caused by (intestinal) bacterial endotoxin.

The benefits of the Lion's Mane include antibiotic, anticarcinogenic, antidiabetic, antifatigue, antihypertensive, antihyperlipodemic, antisenescence, cardioprotective, hepatoprotective, nephroprotective, and neuroprotective properties and improvement of anxiety, cognitive function, and depression. The described anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and immunostimulating properties in cells, animals, and humans seem to be responsible for the multiple health-promoting properties. [1]

Lion's Mane contains:

- Diterpenoids
- Antioxidants
- Neuroprotective aromatic compounds, (Hericenones and Erinacines)
- Sterols
- Polysaccharides
- Minerals (zinc, selenium, copper, potassium, manganese)
- Enzymes
- B vitamins
- Amino acids

Unique 'ultrasonic' extraction method:

Traditional solvent extraction using organic ethanol, mixed with cold water, high speed friction extract. The medicinal components of Lion's Mane and other mushrooms include not only polysaccharides but proteins, sterols, SOD, and enzymes including catalase, peroxidase, RNAase, and DNAase, all of which are damaged or destroyed by temperatures above 180ºF. Instead of direct heat source exposure to liquid, we utilize high speed stirring at approximately 1,500 RPM for 48 hours to release and extract components using heat created by friction. This promotes molecular breakdown of chitin from cell walls while reducing any risk of medicinal compound damage from direct heat exposure.

    Unsure

    I’ve emailed this company for clarity with no response. Everywhere online says to aim for 300-500mg/day. This product has 69mg/2ml… you have to take like 14 or more ml/day of this product to get that amount. Now I could be missing something but if this is right then this product is a huge rip off. Most likely won’t be ordering again

    Fast acting!

    I originally ordered for my 34 year old son who suffers from anxiety, but decided to also buy some for myself during your last sale. After using it for almost a week he phoned me praising your product. He said he doesn't get the nervousness he usually gets when he interacts with his students and co workers and his concentration has improved as well. For me it keeps me calm. Love this product.

    Amazing!

    This helps me stay focused on my work related tasks. I often get very distracted and I’ve noticed less time on my phone too!
