Lion's Mane Mushroom (Hou Tou Gu)

Introducing our Lion’s Mane Mushroom capsules, a powerful supplement rooted in the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, containing 1000mg of Lion’s Mane powder sourced from the fruiting body and mycelium. Lion’s Mane, scientifically named Hericium erinaceus, is also known as Hedgehog Mushroom, while its Chinese name, Hou Tou Gu (Monkey Head Mushroom), reflects its unique appearance.

Key Bio Compounds:

• Hericeones and Erinaciens: Lion’s Mane contains two active compounds, aromatic Hericenones (from the fruiting body) and Erinaciens (from the mycelium), both known for their role in stimulating NGF production.
• Pure and Potent: Each capsule contains 1000mg of Lion’s Mane powder from both the fruiting body and mycelium, ensuring a comprehensive blend of beneficial compounds.

Neurological Support:

• NGF Stimulation: Lion’s Mane is renowned for its ability to stimulate Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), a crucial protein supporting the growth, maintenance, and survival of nerve cells.
• NGF’s Role: NGF plays a pivotal role in the Central and Peripheral Nervous Systems, contributing to neurogenesis, the formation of new nerve cells, and potentially offering therapeutic benefits in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.
• Blood-Brain Barrier: These bioactive molecules can efficiently penetrate the blood-brain barrier, enhancing their impact on neurological health.
• Myelination: Evidence suggests that Hericenones and Erinaciens may contribute to increased myelination, fostering nerve protection and function.
