Lion's mane mushroom

Lion's mane (Hericium erinaceus) is an edible mushroom whose fruiting body resembles a fluffy ball of long, white, hanging spines, or a lion's mane – hence its name. In nature it grows mainly on old deciduous trees such as beech and oak. Lion's mane has long been eaten in East Asian cuisine, and it is also grown as a cultivated mushroom. Polysaccharides are carbohydrates made up of many sugar units that occur naturally in the cell walls of mushrooms. OstroVit Lion's Mane Extract is standardised so that polysaccharides make up 30% of the extract; one 500 mg daily dose contains 150 mg of them. A standardised content means that the amount of polysaccharides in the product is consistent.

How to use?

The recommended daily dose is one serving, or 500 mg of powder, which corresponds to two of the included 0.5 ml measuring scoops. Take the powder with a meal and drink water afterwards. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Close the pack tightly after each use to keep the powder dry. Always use a dry scoop, as moisture can make the powder clump. If you use other food supplements containing mushroom extracts at the same time, take their composition into account.
