Description
Lion’s Mane has been a hugely popular nootropic for centuries in Chinese folkloric remedies, and now Western science and society is beginning to catch up to its extraordinary benefits.
As a mushroom, the primary active compounds are polysaccharides, or beta-glucans. The fruiting body of the mushroom contains the highest content of the B-glucan polysaccharides. (1).
Dosage

The 1:1 extract is higher in polysaccharides than the 8:1, and is recommended for overall well-being, whereas the 8:1 is more suitable for cognitive support.
