Lion's mane is a powerful mushroom that is scientifically shown to support memory, cognitive function, and the nervous system. This mushroom grows throughout Asia in white, globular fruits with long, shaggy tendrils that look like a white lion’s mane. It has a long history of culinary and medicinal use in countries, including Japan, China, India, and Korea. Our capsules contain a highly concentrated extract of organic lion’s mane (10:1), and are complemneted with a small dose of vitamin-C rich organic acerola, ensuring you reap the full benefits from these wonderful mushrooms.
Organic lion’s mane
Lion's mane is a powerful medicinal mushroom that is scientifically proven to support memory, enhance brain function, and strengthen the nervous system. It has been used in Eastern medicine for millennia, and a growing body of scientific research has been confirming its benefits for the brain and nervous system. Evidence suggests that it can help lift the mood, support memory and concentration, and ease symptoms associated with anxiety, depression, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and other degenerative brain diseases. It also balances cholesterol levels, reduces blood sugar levels, modulates inflammation (particularly in the digestive system), reduces the risk of cancer, boosts immunity and soothes ulcers.
Over time, the brain naturally slows down due to wear and tear on a cellular level. One of the ways that lion's mane achieves its regenerative effects is by stimulating the body to naturally produce two compounds, nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). These substances are essential in creating new cells and strengthening existing ones, and they increase the brain’s resilience against stress and ageing.
Our commitment to preserving the medicinal potency of the lion's mane mushroom drives our extraction process. When we mention that our capsules contain a “10:1” concentrate of lion’s mane, it means that for every 10 grams of dried Lion’s mane mushroom, the extraction process we use concentrates it into 1 gram of extract. This makes it ten times more potent than non-extract mushrooms, giving you more of the beneficial compounds in a concentrated form. Our lion’s mane extract is derived solely from the mushroom's potent fruiting body. We start by submerging dried lion’s mane in hot water to extract valuable polysaccharides. Using spray drying, the liquid is transformed into a concentrated powder, achieving our “10:1” potency ratio. Throughout this process, we ensure purity by using no additives, delivering a 100% pure lion’s mane extract for maximum health benefits.
Organic acerola berry
Acerola berries are native from Central and South America, and they are tremendously rich in vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant that promotes optimal immune function and overall health and vitality. These wonder berries are also rich in a series of other beneficial active compounds such as amino acids, anthocyanins, flavonoids and carotenoids, which help boost immune function, provide antioxidant protection against free radical damage, dampen inflammation, balance blood sugar levels, protect the liver and help prevent tumour proliferation (Belwal et al., 2018).

For maximum benefits from the Lion’s Mane Supplements:
-
Sleep Well: Ensure you get 7-9 hours of uninterrupted sleep nightly. Sleep is when the brain consolidates memories and cleanses toxins, setting you up for a day of optimal cognitive function.
-
Brain-Boosting Activities: Stimulate your mind regularly. Engage in study, puzzles, crosswords, or chess. Reading books, especially those outside your comfort zone, or learning a new instrument can also sharpen cognitive skills.
-
Balanced Diet: Fuel your brain with a nutrient-rich diet. Consume foods abundant in omega-3 fatty acids like flax seeds, chia seeds, and fatty fish. Antioxidant-rich foods like blueberries, turmeric, and dark chocolate can combat oxidative stress, which may impair cognitive function.
-
Mindfulness & Meditation: Dedicate a few minutes daily to mindfulness practices. Meditation can enhance focus, improve stress response, and even increase the brain's grey matter, which is vital for processing information.
-
Stay Hydrated: Drink ample water throughout the day. Dehydration can impair attention, long-term & short-term memory, and decision-making skills.
-
Regular Exercise: Physical activity boosts blood flow to the entire body, including the brain. Whether it's a brisk walk, yoga, or a more intense workout, keeping active can enhance cognitive function and mood.
-
Limit Distractions: In our digital age, distractions are all around. Set aside times of the day for deep work, devoid of interruptions from smartphones or social media. This can train your brain for better focus and productivity.
-
Aromatherapy: Incorporate the use of our Focus Pulse Point during breaks in your study or work sessions to help rejuvenate your mental state and sharpen focus; diffuse our Focus Essential Oil Diffuser Blend or simply some rosemary essential oil in your study or work space.
