Lion’s Mane
Lion’s Mane mushroom is especially useful for mental acuity and healing our brains. The active chemicals in Lion’s Mane are called hericenones and erinacines. They travel through the blood/brain barrier activating several useful functions in the brain:
Neuroplasticity: The ability of the brain to form and reorganize synaptic connections, especially in response to learning or a new experience.
Neurogenesis: The process which forms new neurons in the brain, even strengthening weaker neurons that have been damaged with time.
Mental Acuity: Cognitive enhancement. The combination of neurogenesis and neuroplasticity makes our brains more efficient and allows it to become self-healing.
Research has shown Lion’s Mane to be effective following nerve damage to help repair the neurons throughout the body and brain. All studies have been completed using Lion’s Mane Fruiting Bodies. This is why we only use the fruiting bodies in our capsules, to match the results seen in popular studies.

Oyster Mushrooms
The Pink Oyster mushroom is a natural multivitamin. It contains natural niacin, proteins, polysaccharides, and beta glucans. The polysaccharides and beta glucans are natural chemicals that have profound effects on our bodies, specifically our hearts. The Pink Oyster is capable of lowering blood sugars to a healthy equilibrium, and strengthening the muscles in the heart. Along with niacins that can aid in energy and digestion, these mushrooms are high in vitamins B1, B3, B5, and B12, potassium, selenium, iron, and zinc. Some people use it as a replacement for meat. The Pink Oyster is so effective working on the heart and circulatory system, it is suggested not to be taken with Blood pressure medications (please see your doctor before changing any medications). The Pink Oyster also works very well with Lion’s Mane and our other mushroom supplements, because the natural niacin is a potentiator for the other mushrooms.
