Lion's Mane Powder (50g)

Hericium Erinaceus or better known as Lion’s Mane Mushroom - is a non-psychedelic Functional Mushroom which has healing medicinal benefits when consumed on a daily basis for the purposes of improving one’s neurological function.

Each Pack Contains 60 capsules (300mg Each Capsule) - start with 1 capsule and assess efficacy, then move up to 2 capsules daily.

 

Healing properties:

1. Regeneration of Grey Matter of the Brain 

- contain two special compounds that can stimulate the growth of brain cells: Hericenones and Erinacines. These compounds stimulate the production of Nerve Growth Factor in the body 

- Nerve Growth Factor is involved primarily in the growth, as well as the maintenance, proliferation, and survival of nerve cells (neurons). In fact, NGF is critical for the survival and maintenance of sympathetic and sensory neurons of the Brain as well as Peripheral nerves 

2. Could protect against Dementia and Certain Neurological disorders like Stroke

- 2020 study of people with mild Alzheimer’s disease found that supplementation with 1000mg of Lion’s Mane mushroom daily for 49 weeks significantly improved cognitive test scores compared with a placebo

- research has found that lion’s mane mushroom extract may help speed recovery from these types of injuries by stimulating the growth and repair of nerve cells and may also help reduce the severity of brain damage after a stroke.

- may also have potential for healing Peripheral nerves and paralysis caused by Stroke

3. Mood Balancing and Anti-Anxiety Effects 

- improves the functioning of the hippocampus, a region of the brain that processes memories and emotional responses

- exerts a potent Anti-Depressant and Anti-Anxiety action which is similar to action of modern pharmaceutical agents 

4. Gastro-Protective against Stomach and Colon Ulcers 

- may protect against the development of stomach ulcers by inhibiting the growth of H. pylori and protecting the stomach lining from damage 

- reduce inflammation and prevent tissue damage in other intestinal areas. In fact, they may help treat inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease

5. Cardio-Protective and Cholesterol Lowering Effects 

- contain a compound called Hericenone B, which can decrease the rate of blood clotting and lower the risk of heart attack or stroke

- Lion’s Mane mushroom extract improves fat metabolism and lowers triglyceride levels

- prevent the oxidation of cholesterol in the bloodstream (Oxidised cholesterol molecules tend to attach to artery walls, causing them to harden and increase the risk of heart attack and stroke)

6. Diabetes and Glucose Management 

- Lowers blood sugars is by blocking the activity of the enzyme Alpha-glucosidase, which breaks down carbs in the small intestine (When this enzyme is blocked, the body is unable to digest and absorb carbs as effectively, which results in lower blood sugar levels)

- Lion’s mane extract may reduce diabetic nerve pain and Paresthesias in the hands and feet by promoting nerve growth in areas affected by Diabetic Neuropathy 

 

PLEASE NOTE: Kindly exercise caution in cases where patients have a known mushroom allergy, although the compounds may be free of their Chitin layer (which usually causes the allergy response in Humans) there is always a risk of reacting to small particles which may be left behind in the powder.
