Original post in this thread

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!

Just read a comment today that anecdotally proves your statement wrong about dr Emil product.

I said I thought it was, but I would have to check the data again. I checked the plate data, and it was not Dr. Emil that was totally fake. Dr Emil was lion's mane. It's just that the piperine they put in fluoresced super strongly on the plate, which stood out. Not sure why they put piperine in there...
It was Toniq that was not even lion's mane.
So lane 1 is the botanical reference standard. Lane 2 is our 1:1 lion's mane powder. Lane 4 is Toniq and lane 6 is Dr. Emil. You can see the piperine fluorescing at 0.4 on there on the Dr. Emil one. If you look at lanes 3, 6, and 7 they are lion's mane, but different than the botanical reference material for fruiting body. So they might be mycelium, or they might be a mixture. The only ones that matched the reference standard exactly was ours (obviously) and Fresh Cap.
