What is lion's Mane?

Lions Mane is a mushroom that has been found in studies to have many beneficial effects related to good health. In addition, Lions Mane contains vitamins, minerals, polysaccharides, sterols, alkaloids, lactones and other useful ingredients. Perhaps one of the most impressive benefits associated with Lions Mane mushroom is that it is considered a functional and adaptogenic nutrient. Adaptogenic foods have health benefits in addition to their nutritional value.
Adaptogens like Lion's Mane help the body adapt to any kind of stress, physical, biological or chemical.

Traditional use

In traditional Chinese medicine, Lions Mane is used to support general health and longevity, as well as to treat mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. This is due to its calming effect on the central nervous system, which can treat common problems such as restlessness, panic and insomnia.
Buddhist monks were said to use Lion's Mane mushroom powder as a tea to boost brain power and focus during meditation. This mushroom is called Hou Tou Gu (monkeyhead mushroom) in China and Yamabushitake in Japan.

Properties that protect the nervous system

The Lion's Mane mushroom has neuroprotective properties thanks to the unique compounds it contains. These compounds have been found to protect nerve cells from damage, promote nerve cell regeneration, and reduce inflammation in the brain. As a result, Lion's Mane is believed to help prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's

Impact on mental health

Lion's Mane has shown potential as a natural remedy for anxiety and depression. Research suggests that it may help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression by modulating the levels of certain neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. These neurotransmitters play an important role in regulating mood, motivation and stress response.

Memory and cognitive functions

Several studies suggest that Lion's Mane mushroom can improve cognitive function and memory by stimulating the production of nerve growth factors (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). These growth factors are essential for the growth and maintenance of nerve cells, which directly affects learning, memory and overall brain health.
Immune system

The Lion's Mane mushroom contains bioactive compounds such as beta-glucans that can support and modulate the immune system. Lion's Mane can help prevent infections and maintain overall health by improving the body's immune response as well as reducing inflammation and preventing oxidation.

Lion's Mane experiences

A person who starts using Lions Mane can possibly feel a boost and clarity of thoughts right from the first time, e.g. if he has slept too little and feels tired in the afternoon. This is of course affected by the strength and how much mushroom powder/extract you take. The appropriate dosage is largely personal, as in most other supplements, and you can often find the dosage that suits you through experimentation.

Over time, a person using Lion's Mane regularly can experience a gradual, positive change in thinking, emotional control, memory, and verbal fluency. Since these changes are not too intense, they are integrated into everyday life almost unnoticed.
