Lion's mane mushrooms

Lions Mane Mushrooms are a 100% natural mushroom that promotes cognitive function, combats depression and anxiety, stimulates the immune system, and has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. 

• Lion's Mane Mechanism of Action
  

Lion's mane may have several mechanisms of action. It is believed to prevent the accumulation of beta amyloid protein in the brain, which is a hallmark of Alzheimer's. It also promotes the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), which helps to protect and repair neurons in the brain. It also stimulates the production of serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, which are neurotransmitters that are responsible for feelings of happiness and well-being. Lion's mane also stimulates macrophage activity. Macrophages are immune cells that are responsible for identifying and neutralizing foreign invaders in the body. When these macrophages are activated, they fight bacteria, viruses, and other foreign invaders. They are also responsible for protecting the body from cancerous growths. 

• Lion's Mane for the Brain
  

Lion's mane benefits the brain by increasing the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). Nerve growth factor is a protein that supports the growth, maintenance, and survival of neurons, and the formation and maintenance of synapses. The mushroom helps to protect the brain from degeneration, and is particularly useful for people with Alzheimer's, dementia, or other neurodegenerative disorders. NGF is a naturally occurring protein that promotes the growth of new neurons in the hippocampus, a part of the brain that is responsible for memory. Lion's mane may also aid in the regeneration of neurons damaged by disease, such as Alzheimer's. It has also been shown to reverse age-related memory loss in mice.

• Lion's Mane for Anxiety and Depression
  

Lion's mane benefits the brain by stimulating the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that is responsible for feelings of well-being and happiness. There is also research showing that lion's mane can improve symptoms among individuals with depression or anxiety.

• Lion's Mane for the Liver
  

Lion's mane benefits the liver by inhibiting the growth of abnormal liver cells and by detoxifying harmful chemicals in the liver. It is also an antioxidant, which may help to combat free radical damage caused by alcohol and other toxins. Lion's mane may also prevent alcohol-induced fatty liver disease.

• Lion's Mane in Traditional Chinese Medicine
  

Lion's mane has been used in Traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. It is used to treat insomnia, anxiety, depression, and poor memory. It is also used to treat sore throats and coughs, and to reduce inflammation, arthritis, and pain. It is also used as an anti-viral, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal.

• Lion's Mane Dosage Information
  

As a medicinal mushroom, lion's mane mushroom should be consumed on a daily basis. Dosage information varies depending on the reason for consumption, and the amount of mushroom consumed per serving will vary based on a person's body weight. Some research has shown that two grams per day is effective at stimulating Nerve Growth Factor production, while higher doses (10 grams per day) have been shown to be effective at treating Alzheimer's and Dementia. For general health purposes, doses of 5–10 grams per day have been shown to be effective. 

When taking an extract, follow the dosage instructions provided by your manufacturer. Many of these extracts will vary wildly in terms of potency and ingredients so there is no standardized dosage across the board.
