It is the only known mushroom to contain two classes of neuroactive compounds unique to this species: hericenones (found in the fruiting body) and erinacines (found in the mycelium). Both compound classes have been studied for their ability to stimulate the synthesis of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) a neurotrophin essential for the growth, maintenance, and survival of neurons in the central and peripheral nervous system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNGF binds to TrkA (tropomyosin receptor kinase A) receptors on neurons, activating intracellular signalling cascades that support neuronal differentiation, synaptic plasticity, and the maintenance of cholinergic neurons in the basal forebrain a population of neurons critically involved in learning, memory, and cognitive function. NGF itself does not cross the blood-brain barrier, but hericenones and erinacines are small lipophilic molecules that can cross the BBB and stimulate endogenous NGF synthesis within the brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis formula uses Hericium erinaceus fruiting body the above ground reproductive structure of the mushroom standardized to 40% polysaccharides. Fungal polysaccharides, primarily beta-glucans, are the primary immunomodulatory compounds in medicinal mushrooms. Beta-glucans interact with pattern recognition receptors (particularly Dectin-1 and TLR2) on immune cells including macrophages, dendritic cells, and NK cells, supporting normal immune function through innate immune pathway activation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFruiting Body vs Mycelium: Why It Matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLion’s Mane supplements vary significantly in their source material. Fruiting body extracts are derived from the actual mushroom the structure that accumulates the highest concentrations of hericenones and beta-glucan polysaccharides. Mycelium-on-grain products are produced by growing mycelium on a grain substrate (typically rice or oats); the final product contains significant amounts of undigested grain starch alongside the mycelium, diluting the active mushroom content. This formula uses Hericium erinaceus fruiting body, providing a concentrated, standardized source of Lion’s Mane bioactives without grain dilution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdults seeking a high-potency, standardized Lion’s Mane fruiting body extract for daily cognitive health and immune function support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose who want a Health Canada licensed, 40% polysaccharide standardized Hericium erinaceus supplement in a vegan, Canadian made formula\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose who prefer fruiting body over mycelium-on-grain for a concentrated, grain-free Lion’s Mane extract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsult a healthcare practitioner before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have a medical condition, or are taking medications.
