Lion's Mane Mushroom Powder

Lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a medicinal mushroom that has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years for its affinity with the brain and nervous system. It protects brain cells against oxidation and degeneration whilst stimulating the growth of new neurons. Lion's mane also supports Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), which promotes neuroplasticity, especially in the hippocampus, the area of the brain responsible for memory and learning.

Beyond the brain, lion's mane supports the broader nervous system by accelerating the production of myelin sheaths, the fatty insulating layer that forms around nerves and helps with the conductivity of electrical impulses around the body.

This is organic, high quality lion's mane mushroom powder selected by our qualified herbalists. Available in a 90g reusable glass container or a 90g refill bag. For a deeper look at the research and benefits, read our full guide: Lion's Mane Mushroom Benefits, Dosage and How to Use It.
