Ingredients
What's actually in the bottle
The whole Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) fruit body, domestically sourced and organic.
Recovered from the same mushrooms and returned to the tincture in the final spagyric step.
Used to draw out the alcohol soluble compounds.
Used in the hot water extraction, which draws out the water soluble compounds.
Rooted in tradition
A mushroom with a long lineage
Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) grows on hardwood trees across North America, Europe and Asia, and its cascading white spines give it its common name. In Japan it is called Yamabushitake, after the tufted ornaments worn by the yamabushi mountain monks. In China it is Hou Tou Gu, the monkey head mushroom.
It has been used for centuries in East Asian herbal traditions to support the brain and nervous system, and it has long been prepared as a food and tonic for the stomach.
Planetary correspondence
The Moon
Lion's Mane is associated with the Moon, which governs the brain and the stomach. With its dull white glow and bulbous, watery body, it even looks like the Moon.

What sets us apart
Why our extracts are different
The part of the mushroom used traditionally.
We start with the mushroom itself, U.S. grown or wild harvested, never mycelium on grain. A tincture can only be as good as what goes into it.
A Complex Whole Mushroom Extract.
Alcohol draws out the compounds water leaves behind, like triterpenes and sterols. Hot water draws out the water soluble beta glucans. We run both, so the finished tincture carries both.
Mineral salts returned.
In the final spagyric step, we recover the mineral salts from the spent mushroom and return them to the tincture, so the extract is completed with the mushroom's own minerals.

FAQ
Questions? Here are your answers
Some people notice a difference right away. For most, the benefits build over 2 to 4 weeks of daily use.

Yes. Every batch is tested by a third party lab for microbes. We also test for pesticides, heavy metals, and identity on a skip lot schedule, and we confirm the identity of every raw material when it arrives.
Not yet! While we have tested multiple rounds of tinctures, we have experienced inconsistency with current labs and methods. The Megazyme protocol, typical for beta glucan assays, was initially designed for yeast, and the method is for powders. It is a destructive method that gives general beta glucan content, but does not distinguish between beta glucan types. It also is not effective in most cases for liquid extracts, and most labs process them inconsistently. As for secondary metabolites, there are currently no validated methods for secondary mushroom metabolites on the market. We have preliminary data on quality we are happy to share, but we will not publish COAs on metabolite profiles until we are confident in the information that is being represented.
