The ultimate brain food

Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a curious looking mushroom that will ignite your curiosity and stimulate your mental faculties! Used for thousands of years as a tasty edible and therapeutic mushroom, it is known by many names such as the hedgehog mushroom, old man’s beard and monkey-head mushroom all of which seek to describe its unusual appearance. But it is perhaps its Japanese name of ‘yamabushitake’ which means ‘mountain monk mushroom’ which comes closest to describing its ancient heritage for supporting brain health and function. It refers to the hermit Buddhist monks who traditionally brewed Lion’s Mane as a tea to support focused attention and mental energy for meditation.

Modern day nootropic

Nootropic substances are those that provide specific support for brain health, mental processing (including focus, clarity and recall), healthy neurological aging and overall nervous system function. Lion’s Mane is the ultimate nootropic, a ‘smart’ mushroom that is packed with bioactive compounds that support brain health as well as overall healthy wellbeing throughout the body. The two most specific for brain health are the hericenones and erinacines which have been researched to support the production of Nerve Growth Factors (NGFs) involved in nerve cell growth, development and plasticity, as well as support the myelination of neurons for healthy nervous system functioning for aging.
