Our Lion's Mane is an organic mushroom that has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine, it has been shown to be effective in improving cognitive function and supporting nerve health.
Lion's Mane, also known as hericum erinaceus, contains compounds that promote the synthesis of Nerve Growth Factor, which is involved in the regulation, growth and survival of neutrons in the central nervous system. In a 2009 study, older adults with mild cognitive impairment who took Lion's Mane for 16 weeks had significant improvements in cognitive function tests when compared to placebo.

Robert Wilson –
Started taking Lions Mane about two weeks ago. I am thinking that my brain is less foggy and I have better use of words and clarity. I am going to keep taking Lions Mane.
Norman Sims –
My father has dementia. After giving him Lions Mane his speech improved and he regained the ability to finish sentences and communicate better. He seems to have better clarity
