I researched both but I couldn’t know which one if better for cognitive support due to each of one them having different opinions from people.

Wow that's amazing! When can we expect the optimized 1:1 and CordyMAX? Sorry for being so impatient, I really love ND's Cordyceps and LM, they are the only ones I see a difference with

The lion's mane 1:1 depends on how fast current inventory sells. We usually build out 6 months. Again, our current batch is very very good. It's double what we have been getting for years, and higher than any other retail lion's mane we have found yet. I'm always just pushing us farther, and there is a mental thing with having our fruiting body lion's mane be 0.5% alongside our Erinamax. But the lion's mane 1:1 currently on our shelf is the best it has ever been, and significantly higher than any other retail product we have tested from our competitors, so no need to wait for higher if you don't want. The two most recent batches were only available on our site in the past couple months. Most customers will have tried our older batches that had half the hericenes and hericenones. This means the current stock of 1:1 will likely impress pretty much everyone.
For Cordyceps, we are still working on things. Our current inventory has a third peak in the chromatogram that is leading to the unique effects that people notice in our product. We have always had three main adenosine derivative peaks in our Cordyceps, where competitors have only had one or two. Usually that's cordycepin or adenosine and cordycepin. Ours has always had those two and a third peak, which I always suspected was the reason people reacted better to our Cordyceps than other brands with the same or more cordycepin. We just didn't know what that peak is till recently. We finally figured out what it is, though! The issue is that our grows up in Canada that are getting super high cordycepin are not getting that third peak, so we want to solve that first.
