Looking to grab some LM for use in Stamet's microdosing protocol.
Anyone use both brands and can compare the 2?

What's different with the new formula? Is it a change to 8:1?

It's an extract from cultured lion's mane mycelium standardized to erinacine-A using validated and accurate analytical methods. Our current extracts are all using the fruiting body. Everyone currently selling things claiming to be standardized to erinacines are lying. We've tested their stuff. There are no erinacines in them. It's actually fairly difficult to get the lion's mane mycelium to make appreciable amounts of erinacines. You have to grow it in very specific conditions. Then the analytical methods are a lot more complex than people realize, too. There is another terpene compound in lion's mane that fluoresces similarly to erinacine-A, but is not an erinacine. This makes people think they have erinacines, when they actually don't. They are using shitty science from a fraudulent lab to mislead people into buying an inferior product.
