Description
Lion’s Mane mushroom has been seen in studies to speed up nervous system repair, decrease brain inflammation after brain injuries and to protect the brain from Alzheimer’s disease, MS and dementia. In many studies, it has even been seen to reverse the effects of these conditions as well as reverse brain-aging.
Lion’s Mane is packed with a vast array of potent bioactive compounds that stimulate Nerve Growth Factor (NGF). In a double-blind study, researchers found that supplementing with Lion’s Mane resulted in improved memory and cognitive function, provided it’s taken consistently.
A growing body of research supports the neuroprotective effects of Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) mushroom, so much so that it has earned itself the moniker “the smart mushroom” due to its ability to improve cognitive performance and reduce brain fog.
Preclinical studies suggest that Lion’s mane may reduce inflammation and biological markers of Alzheimer’s (i.e., amyloid plaques), improve cognition, and increase the release of nerve growth factor, a protein that can increase the length of nerve cell processes
Lion’s mane’s effect on nerve growth factor levels may enable it to help protect against disorders like Alzheimer’s disease that feature cognitive impairment. Lion’s mane is a type of nootropic, meaning it contains compounds that improve brain health and function, according to Best.
Can lions mane regrow brain cells?
Other animal studies have found that lion’s mane extract can also help regenerate brain cells and improve the functioning of the hippocampus, a region of the brain that processes memories and emotional responses
Scientific studies show that Lion’s Mane, Reishi and Chaga mushroom are the three most effective medicinal mushrooms for brain health. They help protect the brain from neurodegeneration, boost cognitive function scale, improve memory, mood, focus and concentration, and support diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia.
Lion’s Mane has been shown to increase energy due to its naturally occurring antioxidants and polysaccharides. Lion’s Mane may support stable energy levels via its effect on normal blood sugar levels.

Ek het Lions Mane vir my Seun begin gee vir konsentrasie en angs. En binne 2dae kon ek verskil in sy gesondheid sien waar hy bleek was en yster baie laag is, het dit verbeter en sy punte het baie opgetel. En sien sommer hy is baie rustiger nou voor enige toets.
