Lion's Mane clinical trials

Original post in this thread

SysAdminCafe · 24 points

Hi there. Are there any concrete clinical trials that prove the efficacy of Lion's Mane in improving cognition or memory? Reason I ask is I've been taking 1gram of Host Defense Lion's Mane going on three months to hopefully repair damage done through binge drinking. I've found a few links online but I'm told there is not enough research to support claims that it can enhance memory or increase NGF. Is anyone taking Lion's Mane and what motivated you to invest in this supplement? What convinced you that it works? Thanks.

Yeah, I wasn't implying that you guys would just start fermenting mushrooms for the hell of it. I was just wondering if anyone in history fermented mushrooms, or if anyone considered it, or if there is something that prevents it. I figured you had looked into other fermented shit after researching/selling that fermented ginseng. I was really into reading different food/supplement fermentation studies for a while. I think there are definetly opportunities for fermented supplements that aren't currently sold. A lot of the benefits that would be derived from making a fermented product could be negligible when compared to the effect of making a more potent extract. Idk, I think fermentation is really interesting, and the idea that fermentation can change active compounds is incredibly cool to me.

It's definitely a cool concept. I'd have to do some research to see if anyone has ever fermented medicinal mushrooms.

Frustrated by the lack of quality lion's mane

Replying to Shneven37 · Thanks for responding to me. I appreciate you taking the time. Your reasoning is sound. You release products that are backed by science. And as of now the evidence only relates to

I am sure there are benefits to the mycelium, when grown and extracted correctly. Just like any other botanical, plant part is only part of the story. Cultivar, cultivation techniques, growing conditions, extraction meth

Paul Stamets on the complexity of assessing Cordyceps supplements. Seems like one should avoid ND’s cordyceps supplements until they stop using fruiting bodies in favor of mycelium. Discuss

Replying to ebowden · Have there been studies directly comparing the chemical composition of extracts of the mycelium and fruiting bodies, and comparing the in vivo effects of these extracts?

Chemical composition studies, yes. No in vivo human studies of lion's mane mycelium, though. Also, no animal studies that compare fruiting body to mycelium in the same study. Also, no studies on mycelium on grain. This i

Amycenone in Lionsmane(8:1)

Amycenone is a made up trademarked name. It doesn't actually mean anything. Only the people that trademarked the name can use it, just like only we can use PanaMAX. It would be silly for me to ask if our competitor's *Pa

Lions mane 8:1 extract on amazon has an F on fakespot. Why?

Replying to Fakespot · We can see why this thread would gain a lot of attention due to the F grade for an ND product. Before I dive into the grading, let's talk about the grade itself and what it means.

Hey, Fakespot! Didn't expect that. I am going to forewarn you, this will be a long one. I am going to go into a lot of detail, and I am going to pepper sarcasm and criticism in along the way. Just be prepared (peppered?)

Replying to usrnmz · Man you guys are really working on cool stuff these days. Sounds like time for a blog post on isoliquiritigenin haha! Some more questions if you don't mind! 1. What are your fav

1) I like to pair it with GABA, Baikal skullcap, and Sibelius sage. 2) I notice it for 3-5 hours. 3) I do think it has the potential for potentiating stronger stimulants, but it also has a calming effect with the GABA
