• Lion's Mane is known to support healthy brain function. It is rich in a multitude of important compounds: beta-glucans, which are responsible for anti-tumor growth, immunomodulatory antioxidants, and neuroprotective chemicals.

Oxidative stress, which these compounds protect against, is closely linked to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. The synthesis of nerve growth factor (NGF) in nerve cells can be induced by certain compounds (hericenones and erinacines) present in Hericium erinaceus, thus making Lion's Mane an amazing aid to nerve development and function due to its neurotrophic factors.

Lion's Mane is a mushroom species that is beautiful in appearance, it has long, cascading shaggy spines resembling a waterfall. Lion's Mane grows on the trunks of hardwood trees in Northern forests and has been used in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) for millennia and has become an established candidate in promoting positive cognitive function.
