What makes Erinamax Vegetarian but not Vegan?

I was wondering what makes Erinamax a vegetarian product and not a vegan product? Should note that I've been vegan for over 10 years. I absolutely love using the Lions Mane 1:1 extract and the 8:1 extract and have been using them for a while now. I wanted to compare the benefits of Erinacine-A in Erinamax but noticed that in the Dietary Information section of the product page it's labeled as 100% vegetarian and not 100% vegan like most of the other ND supplements.

Have you tried culturing and eating your own L. Reuteri yogurt? I also dealt with H. Pylori and I believe eating the cultured yogurt helped me fight and heal from H. Pylori! I ate 150 grams of the yogurt daily, for about 3 weeks. I'm actually going to start culturing my next batch today!
Look into the benefits and then weigh any potential pros & cons though.
Some other supplements that probably helped me in this area:
\- Zinc Carnosine
\- Resistant Starch in the form of organic, raw (unmodified) potato starch. (about 13 - 20 grams daily, though may need to start smaller, as some people may feel some GI upset with a high initial dose).
Next I hope to add a good sulforaphane supplement, though I'm just waiting for ND to release theirs :) .
Let me know if you have any questions!

I have not. I believe it helped, though. L. Reuteri does attack H. Pylori, so that is a good one if you think you have that in your system. Our probiotics are going to be more wide-ranging, to ensure biodiversity in the GI tract. You don't want to have the balance tip towards any one single strain. You want a good diverse blend of strains.
Next I hope to add a good sulforaphane supplement, though I'm just waiting for ND to release theirs :) .
It's basically done. We ran into an issue in beta testing where it was causing stomach upset. We had to reformulate to get rid of that. We were using a potent mustard powder in there to provide some myrosinase, and it was just causing a lot of stomach issues in people, so we had to reformulate with it removed, but keeping the same levels of sulforaphane production. Luckily we were able to do it, so the final formula should be good to go!
