Lion's Mane Mushroom: The revolution of modern science
Lion's Mane Extract (15:1) 300mg by Myco Nutrition is a food supplement in vegetable capsules based on fruiting body extract of Hericium erinaceus, with vitamins B5 and B12.
Lion's Mane is a mushroom categorised among the so-called smart mushrooms, which is why it has become very popular among the most select circles of students looking for natural supplements. HSN brings you the best standardised Lion's Mane extract!
Enjoy this product regardless of your dietary preferences, as it is suitable for vegan diets, contains no allergens and is free from Genetically Modified Organisms.
No Lion's Mane like HSN's
Not all raw materials are the same, and there are clearly certain quality factors that must be ensured in order to verify that a product has a significant positive effect; however, many companies do not do this. HSN does.
Standardised plant extract. The best Lion's Mane
Plant extracts must ensure several things in order to establish both their safety and efficacy. For example, Lion's Mane mycelium, contrary to popular belief, is not the appropriate part for the development of food supplements. These must ensure that they come from the fruiting body of the mushroom, and many companies do not do so, compromising their safety and efficacy.
The extract selected for the development of this supplement comes solely and exclusively from the fruiting body of the Hericium erinaceus mushroom, a certified species to guarantee maximum effectiveness based on the scientific research available in the nootropic field of study.
15 times more concentrated is no small thing!
This Lion's Mane extract has 150% more potency than the native composition of the Lion's Mane mushroom.
That's why it's more potent!
Many food supplements on the market based on this species do not offer extracts, but rather Lion's Mane powder.
Lion's Mane powder is significantly less potent than its extract, for obvious reasons resulting from the higher concentration of the extract.
Guaranteed content. 50% polysaccharides
Polysaccharides are the natural compounds that are created in mushrooms and are associated with most of the nutritional properties these herbal species possess.
Therefore, a higher polysaccharide content means greater potency in the properties of the extract.
HSN guarantees a minimum content of 50% broad-spectrum polysaccharides from authentic Hericium erinaceus. A guarantee of maximum quality for the mushroom's most sought-after properties.
With vitamins that complement the action
The product provides a significant amount of 2 important vitamins that complement the action and properties of Lion's Mane extract:
- Pantothenic acid, or vitamin B5.
- Cobalamin, or vitamin B12.
The vitamin B12 provided comes in the most sought-after form of this compound: methylcobalamin.
This is because methylated cobalamin (methyl-cobalamin) is an active form of this vitamin that does not require transformations in the body and can act directly, unlike other forms.
B5 is provided in a form conjugated with calcium: calcium D-pantothenate, a stable and highly bioavailable form.
Easier to take. Lasts longer
The vegetable capsules of Lion's Mane extract are small in size, making them more convenient to take, thanks to the better selection of raw materials that allows a large amount of product to be encapsulated due to its controlled density.
Each capsule provides no less than a 300mg dose of Lion's Mane extract, as well as a high content of the vitamins with which it is formulated.
Thanks to this, you only need one capsule a day to obtain a high effective dose of the best adaptogenic compound.
What effects does Lion's Mane have?
Lion's Mane extract is known for its extensive use among students, especially those looking for non-stimulant products; but students are not the only ones who can use a quality Lion's Mane extract, as the vitamins it contains, such as pantothenic acid, contribute to the normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and some neurotransmitters, which is important for students, of course, but also for people who are not necessarily involved in periods of study.
In addition, vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, a key energy function for this product that is of interest to anyone looking for daily support for their state of well-being.
GMO-Free. A key aspect
When mushrooms are presented in the form of a food supplement, they tend to have one problem, namely genetically modified organisms.
You should bear in mind that developing a specific and controlled species of mushroom, without contamination, such as Lion's Mane, requires very carefully controlled growing conditions, not to mention that if the soil nutrition is not adequate, its polysaccharide content will be very low and therefore of little nutritional interest.
To compensate for this, many companies use raw materials developed with or from genetically modified organisms. Something that represents a clear problem and drawback in relation to the environmental safety of the surroundings where they grow.
At HSN we have selected a raw material carefully cultivated following scientific methods but applied on the basis of traditional procedures, absolutely free from Genetically Modified Organisms.
The best selection of ingredients for effective, safe and efficient development.
