Cognitive Enhancement and Neuroprotection: Lion’s Mane is perhaps most famous for its neuroprotective effects. Research suggests that it stimulates the synthesis of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), a protein crucial for the growth, maintenance, and survival of neurons. NGF promotes brain plasticity and supports brain cell regeneration, which could help prevent cognitive decline. Several animal studies have shown that Lion’s Mane can enhance memory and learning. In humans, small studies suggest that it may help improve symptoms of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and boost mental clarity.

Mood Regulation and Depression: Emerging research indicates that Lion’s Mane may help alleviate anxiety and depression. In a small clinical trial, participants who consumed Lion’s Mane enriched cookies for four weeks reported reduced anxiety and irritability compared to a placebo group. This effect may be related to its ability to reduce inflammation and promote brain health.

Immune System Support: Lion’s Mane contains polysaccharides, particularly beta-glucans, which have immune-modulating properties. These compounds enhance the activity of immune cells such as macrophages, which are critical for defending the body against pathogens. The mushroom may also help regulate immune responses, potentially providing protection against infections.

Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Properties: Chronic inflammation is linked to numerous diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. Lion’s Mane contains antioxidants and bioactive compounds that help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. This makes it a potentially useful dietary addition for reducing the risk of chronic illnesses related to inflammation.

Gut Health: Preliminary research suggests that Lion’s Mane may protect against stomach ulcers by inhibiting the growth of Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that contributes to ulcer formation. Additionally, it may help regenerate the gut lining, aiding in conditions like leaky gut syndrome. 6. Cardiovascular Health: Lion’s Mane may have cardioprotective properties by reducing bad cholesterol (LDL) levels and preventing the oxidation of cholesterol in the bloodstream, a process linked to heart disease. Additionally, it has shown potential in animal models for reducing blood sugar levels and improving insulin sensitivity, which could benefit individuals with diabetes or metabolic syndrome

Dosing: 20 drops (250mg) under the tongue, or in a beverage once daily dose for general well being and maintenance.  Twice daily recommended for a therapeutic indication.
