Is it true ND lion's mane is no good because it's not an alcohol extract?

And it is optimized for beta-glucan. That beta-glucan has no effect on NGF or cognition.

Is this true? If it is what a shame bc I just started my ND LM like 10 days ago.

Erinacine E

So... this means it can be assumed that there is at least less Erinacine E in the 1:1 as there potentially is in the 8:1 dual-extraction, right?

u/MisterYouAreSoDumb · Natrium Health & Nootropics Depot

No, that's only speculation based off him reporting side effects I would associate with a kappa opioid agonist. I can't say one way or another at the moment because the analytical science needs to catch up. I would not be surprised to see there is erinacine E in the fruiting body, but that's far from a scientific fact at the moment. Does it concentrate with ethanol, or do you lose it? I can't tell you for sure till I can accurately measure it in the first place.

This is part of the wholesale price list for "Nammex", the supplier of mushroom powders that many companies repackage/encapsulate and sell for a huge profit margin

Replying to eclecticlove1 · So where do you get the powder for the 8:1 dual phase extract?

We have our own suppliers, just like we do for all our ND branded products. They make it to our specifications. Then we test them in our lab for ID, content, beta-glucans, heavy metals, and now residual solvent residues.

Why the lion's mane you're buying is probably bunk.

First off, our Lion's Mane is not a traditional water extract. The water is used to break down the chitin in the cell walls, but the entire mushroom material is kept in. So you don't lose anything that you would with a f

We are absolutely NOT done with new products. We are in the thick of development for a bunch of them. Some of them are just taking longer than expected to get perfect, so we have had a lull in releases. That's just becau

It's talking about N-de phenylethyl isohericerin (NDPIH) and hericene A. You are not getting much of either in most lion's mane products. You have to grow specific strains in a specific way to get high levels of these ac
