Sally T. Lion’s Mane 450mg; 60 Capsules – Mood enhancer, assists immunity, anti-inflammatory

Lion’s mane mushrooms (Hericium erinaceus) are made up of numerous long, white, fleshy spines that grow in a shaggy, pom-pom-like shape on dead hardwood trees like oak.

They can be eaten raw, dried or cooked and taken in capsule form. They are rich in thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, and minerals like manganese, zinc, and potassium.

They have been used in Chinese and East Asian medicine for 2000 years.

The active ingredients in Lion’s Mane are found in the fruiting body of the mushroom. This provides the beta-glucans which are specific for the beneficial effects of Lion’s Mane.

The active ingredients in Lion’s Mane include polysaccharides (the beta-glucans specific to mushrooms), erinacines hericerins, steroids, alkaloids and lactones. These ingredients all assist in helping protect the body from damage caused by free radicals and inflammation while promoting the growth and regeneration of nerve cells.

Health Benefits:

Though Ashwagandha is an excellent choice if you want to focus on anxiety and hair health, Lion’s Mane will lift your mood and help with mental clarity. It will also assist with:

• Protecting the brain against dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
  • Two special compounds (hericenones and erinacines) have been shown to stimulate the growth of brain cells.
• Promoting faster nerve cell recovery
• Relieving symptoms of depression
• Protecting against stomach ulcers and colonic inflammation
  • Ulcers can form anywhere along the digestive tract, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine, such as ulcerative colitis. Two major factors typically cause stomach ulcers: overgrowth of the bacteria H. pylori and damage to the mucous layer of the stomach.
  • Protection may occur by inhibiting the growth of H. pylori and protecting the stomach lining from damage.
