About Lion's mane

Lion's mane(Hericium erinaceus)

Lion's mane is an amazing fungus with a long history of use in traditional medicine practices. It has grown extremely popular in recent years since hitting the main stream market as a safe, natural and effective nootropic (cognitive enhancer)

Research has found Lion's mane may protect against neuro-degenerative diseases, reduce mild symptoms of anxiety and depression and help repair nerve damage.
The two main groups of compounds responsible for stimulating Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) are Hericenones, found in the mushroom fruit body and Erinacines, thus far only found in the mycelium. If you are taking Lion's mane mainly for nerve regeneration, memory, focus etc. Make sure your supplement includes some form of mycelium from this fungus. For us the inclusion of mycelium is very important, especially with Lion's mane.

Lion's mane is also great for gut health and possibly treating and preventing stomach ulcers. It has been shown to actively prevent H. pylori overgrowth, a bacterial strain naturally present in the gut microbiome, that can cause damage to the stomach lining when levels become imbalanced.

We use Lion's mane daily for improved memory, focus, learning and mental clarity. This mushroom and mycelium stimulates nerve growth factor (NGF), the primary protein responsible for the growth and repair of nerves and neurons.  Lion's mane is also used to improve digestion, reduce inflammation, reduce lactic acid build up in muscles and for its ability to combat oxidative stress. People who consume this mushroom regularly for a sustained period report increased benefit.

Other benefits include immune-modulating effects, potent antioxidant, improved cardiac health and blood-sugar regulation.

When to take Lion's mane?

In the morning for a boost in mental clarity, flow and focus and in the evening for a boost in REM sleep and dream recall. We personally prefer to take Lion's mane first thing in the morning, combined with Chaga if available. Since it supports cognitive performance, mental clarity and memory, why not start your day at your best? Lion's mane, as any mushroom can be taken any time of the day. It mainly depends on your preference. Since the long term benefits of Lion's mane is really what we're after, it doesn't necessarily matter what time of the day it is taken, as long as it's taken frequently.
