Lions mane dosage?

Original post in this thread

drythrowaway123 · 6 points

I know on the bottle it says 1-2 times daily, but is there concrete opinion on what most people go for? Some are saying to only use 500mg a day.

This being the: https://nootropicsdepot.com/lions-mane-hericium-erinaceus-whole-fruiting-body-medicinal-mushroom-extract-500mg-capsules/

Thanks for any help!

I know this is an old comment, but google brought me here.

I have ADHD and have been struggling with motivation, focus, and memory. Not to mention my mood has been lacking. Long story short: I purchased the 180 count 8:1 lions mane from your website, according to the tracking information it should be arriving today. I'm eager to try it.

I ordered it a couple days ago, but I wanted to try lions mane asap after reading all of the positive reviews. I saw a bottle for sale on Amazon which offered next day shipping and was highly rated as well. I suspect that the majority of these reviews are bullshit because they offer free bottles in exchange for reviews. I mean, realistically who's going to leave a bad review when a couple free bottles are on the line?

I decided to try this brand while I'm waiting for your product to arrive. Yesterday I took nine pills throughout the day and felt absolutely nothing at all, not even dry mouth. The brand is: DR EMIL NUTRITION Organic Lions Mane Mushroom Capsules - Maximum Dosage + Absorption Enhancer - Nootropic Brain Supplement and Immune Support (100% Pure Lions Mane Extract)

Have you tested this product at all? I would be willing to send you the rest of this bottle if you're interested. If it's…

We did, actually. We bought a bunch of lion's mane out there and tested them in our lab. It failed our testing. I will have to get the actual results when I am in the office tomorrow. Some of them were not even lion's mane. LOL. Our HP-TLC results showed they were not even Hericium erinaceus at all. I will check it Dr Emil was one of them. ~~I think it was.~~ There is so much fake shit out there, it is insane.

Edit: Dr. Emil was not one of them. It was lion's mane. The piperine just fluoresced super strongly on the HP-TLC plate. Strange they are adding in piperine...

Is ND done launching new products?

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

That's about what I expected. These are just internal COAs. To start, analyzing nitrogen content is not an appropriate methodology for amino acid assay. This is the same shit China got away with on infant formula and spi
