ImproveMe Lion's Mane Extract 100ml “Food For Thought”This mushroom, with its strange bearded appearance, has long been sought after as a culinary delicacy, often used as a chicken substitute! It is mainly found growing on beech trees throughoutnorth America, Europe and Asia. In recent times, Lions Mane has become a super-star mushroom thanks to scientific research. Two classes of compounds made by the mushroom, namely, the hericenones and the erinacines, have been shown to stimulate the production of NGF (nerve growth factor). As the name suggests it plays a part in the survival of and regeneration of nerve cells. It also appears to protect pancreatic cells and immune cells too. Sadly nowadays, in the UK, the leading cause of death is dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. There are very few drugs for this condition…but now there is a super-food that could help! However, Lion’s Mane could also have a role in the treatment of peripheral and other neuropathies and even help to feed your brain during bouts of anxiety or depression. There is even research to say it could ease menopausal symptoms. Our Lion’s Mane is grown on sawdust to simulate its natural environment.
