Benefits of Lion's Mane Tincture

Nerve Support
The cognitive symptoms we associate with aging—like memory loss and lack of focus—can be caused by degeneration in your brain cells. Research suggests that Lion’s Mane mushroom extract may actually support brain health by stimulating production of nerve growth factor, a compound that promotes the growth and protection of brain cells.

Focus
The antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory properties of Lion’s Mane mushrooms improve blood flow to the brain, which provides more oxygen to the brain’s cells for improved cognitive performance. It may also help normalize mood in the face of mild anxiety and depression, potentially alleviating the brain fog that can be symptomatic of those conditions. 

Memory
The role of Lion’s Mane mushrooms in memory is twofold. First, the stimulation of nerve growth factor helps protect against the symptoms of memory loss by keeping brain cells in healthy working order. Secondly, research suggests that Lion’s Mane may prevent the buildup of amyloid beta, a substance that forms the brain plaques associated with Alzheimer’s disease.

FAQs

What is Lion’s Mane?

Sometimes known as Monkey’s Head, Bearded Tooth and Hedgehog mushroom, Lion’s Mane is a white mushroom sporting long white tendrils and a shaggy appearance. It is native to North America, Europe and Southeast Asia.

When should I consume Lion’s Mane?

Whenever it works for you! Everyone’s body chemistry is unique, but this mushroom is not reported to keep consumers up at night. Some choose to take advantage of its anti-anxiety properties before bed, but its effects are not sedative and are safe to enjoy any time.

What is a tincture?

A tincture is a concentrated liquid extract that's made by soaking mushrooms in a solvent—typically alcohol and/or hot water. This process unlocks the active ingredients in the mushrooms, leaving you with a potent liquid that can be dosed with a pipette. Tinctures offer a concentrated, immediate way to incorporate functional fungi like Lion’s Mane into your routine.

What does a Lion’s Mane tincture taste like?

Lion’s Mane has a mild, earthy taste. Our alcohol-based tincture has a more potent flavor, where our glycerin-based (alcohol free) tincture has a sweet taste (sugar-free).

How are Forage tinctures extracted?

We use industry-leading Ultrasonic Extraction technology to produce high potency extracts that feature all of the fungi’s health-promoting polysaccharides, triterpenes and vitamins. This method is the most efficient at breaking down mushroom cell walls to release active compounds contained in them, delivering a potent and bioavailable liquid extract.

Can I use more than one mushroom tincture at a time?

Yes! But we do recommend starting with one mushroom tincture at the recommended daily dosage for up to two weeks to see how your body responds before adding another tincture to your routine.
