Description

Why Should I Take Lion's Mane Mushroom 8:1?

Lion’s mane is not only one of the most popular mushrooms, it is also one of the most popular natural nootropics! This is because lion’s mane is chock full of beneficial compounds that help enhance neuroplasticity. These compounds appear to be especially soluble in ethanol, and due to this reason, dual water/ethanol extracts are by far the most preferred form of lion’s mane extract for nootropic effects.

Our 8:1 lion’s mane is a very high quality, fruiting body ONLY extract, which utilizes both water and ethanol during extraction. This helps concentrate the nootropic compounds within lion’s mane, which makes our lion’s mane 8:1 a phenomenal extract for the purposes of enhancing cognitive function!

That all being said, due to the pronounced nootropic effects, it's easy to forget about some of the other amazing benefits of lion’s mane mushroom such as enhancing cardiovascular function, immune health and mood. Our lion’s mane 8:1 will help enhance all of these essential aspects of human health, making our extract a fantastic all rounder for mind and body!

What is Lion's Mane Mushroom?

Lion’s mane mushroom, scientifically known as Hericium erinaceus, is a part of the tooth fungus group and is native to North America, Europe and Asia. It’s long been used both for its bioactivity and as a food source. Lion’s mane actually has a texture that is very similar to lobster and crab, so it is no surprise that this is also a very popular culinary mushroom!

Lion’s Mane is easily identifiable from other mushroom species because of their tall spines that can grow over 1cm. These mushrooms naturally grow in dangly clusters on hardwoods, most commonly at the end of summer and early fall in Asia, Europe and North America.

Lion’s Mane Mushroom 8:1 Dual Extract is standardized to a minimum of 15% Beta-Glucan (β-Glucan).

Hericium erinaceus Benefits and Uses

    • Promotes cognitive function
    • Enhances mood
    • Promotes cardiovascular function

Dual Water/Ethanol Extract For Maximum Cognitive Benefits

Many different processing methods can be used when creating lion’s mane extracts, each of which has its own unique advantages. For nootropic purposes though, the common consensus is that dual water/ethanol extracts work the best, and we full heartedly agree with this. This is why our potent 8:1 lion’s mane extract utilizes a dual water/ethanol extraction process!

Furthermore, we don’t simply use cheap and ineffective mycelium on grain products, which many mushroom vendors have started to do in recent years. Mycelium on grain products are not representative of the real mushroom whatsoever. In fact, legally, mycelium on grain can’t even be called a mushroom! At Nootropics Depot however, we strictly use ONLY pure high quality lion’s mane fruiting body. This is why our lion’s mane has pronounced acute effects which are not often seen in other lion’s mane products.

In theory, the mycelium of lion’s mane should contain a now quite legendary nootropic compound called Erinacine A, however, we have discovered over the years that this is not as simple as it seems. In fact, through our preliminary research, we have determined that most current commercial mycelium products, especially mycelium on grain products are not very rich sources of erinacine A at all! On the other hand though, high quality lion’s mane fruiting bodies contain lots of different compounds which can have pronounced nootropic effects and these effects are clearly present in our 8:1 lion’s mane fruiting body extract!

You may also be asking yourself, what does 8:1 even mean here? This is because it takes 8kg of raw Lion’s mane mushroom to create just a single kilo of our lion’s mane 8:1 extract. As a result of this high concentration, our lion’s mane 8:1 has pronounced nootropic effects. However, our lion’s mane 8:1 should also concentrate the various different beneficial compounds in lion’s mane which have beneficial effects on cardiovascular function and mood!

Lion's Mane Mushroom Stacks

    One of My Absolute Favorite Supplements.

    I was very skeptical of the concept of medicinal mushrooms but I thought that since I have tried just about every other Nootropic I might as well try to keep an open mind and give these a shot. I wasn't expecting much, and I got far more than I bargained for in this extract. I appreciate the clarity of cognition that this brought on almost immediately but what was most noticeable to me was the very profound sense of well being that just 500 mgs. of this brings on. I am also doing amino acid therapy in an attempt to heal after a last desperate battle with end stage chronic alcoholism, and yesterday when I took this along with 500 mgs. of L Phenylalinine and about 200 mgs. of Pakistani Shilajit resin I literally felt the best that I have in about 30 years. I met a friend last night who picked me up from the hospital when I was released at the beginning of March, 2019 and she remarked that she could not believe the change for the better that has come over me in the last two weeks in terms of appearance and demeanor. I am fully convinced that ND's Cordecyps, Reishi and Lion's Mane ethanol extracts played a significant part in my recovery. If they can help me, they can help anybody. I stocked up on about a 6 month supply.

    I don't normally leave reviews, but this product deserves one. I've taken lion's mane before with great results, but the 8:1 extract brings it to a whole other level. I mix this in my morning coffee and an hour later I feel mentally on point. It has helped me communicate better, produce better results at work, and my retention for information has increased tremendously. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for these results. I stack this with the oxiracetam and alpha gpc and my productivity has gone through the roof.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Insane clumping, no matter what I do. Doesnt mix with anything, 80% of the product is lost, stuck at the bottom. I will stick to capsules I guess? ND Admin: That can happen when it is exposed to moisture, or in a very humid environment. Panax ginseng root is similar. They are very hygroscopic.

    Wasn't expecting much, and got some great results.. Now I am back for more!

    I am not quite sure what results I expected to see from taking Lion's Mane initially to be quite honest. I just know that I had a couple friends taking a Lion's Mane supplement and recommended it. Also, I had read some promising things about LM on various websites myself, so I gave it a try. I don't think I notice much after taking it daily for the first week or so, but then after about 2 full weeks of taking LM regularly I had this 'Ah Ha' moment. I suddenly realized that my mind overall seemed clearer, sharper, and I was able to recall things better/faster than usual. I have continued taking LM regularly since that 'Ah Ha' moment, and my results remain the same. In fact, I am back to reorder! I am going to switch to capsules for the reorder though. While the loose powder is doable, it doesn't taste great, and it also doesn't dissolve easily in water... so it becomes more of a process that I'd like to take it with the powder.

    ymmv

    I am reviewing after only taking 500mg a day for 2 weeks. I see that the recommended dosage is 1000mg daily, I will readjust and report back if possible. So far I have noticed better absorbtion of information from class lectures. No effect on motivation at this dose. The first few days I was experiencing a tingling throughout my body. The last few days I have been hit hard with allergies; I suspect this supplement has brought on an underlying immune response Ive been supressing with OTC meds (swollen lymph nodes, fatigue). Going to take a break for a week before taking the recommended dose to see if the Lions Mane is indeed affecting these "allergies" /flare-up. I am also aware Lions Mane increases histamine because of its increase on NGF. I often read about Lions Mane affecting sex drive. This extract has not had an impact on mine. I am female. I bought 30gs powder. Capsuled myself. Took 2 days to ship. Product is good. Your milage may vary.

    Excellent Product!

    I capsule the powder myself or mix it in with a smoothie or drink of some form. Works great to help keep my memory sharp and lift my mood. I'm interested in trying their other mushroom products as well.

    WHAT ITS LIKE ONCE YOU RUN OUT

    I love this stuff, it works!. Brain fog gone. Your brain just feels more way more accessible and put together. Im writing this review now that I've run out, I definitely noticed a relapse into mild brain fog. The 8:1 extract works fully at around 800mgs, more is not necessarily better, and this is my sweet spot (170lb M)

    THis actually a Question

    Why is the 8:1 extract lower in beta-glugan than the 1:1. Is the 1:1 stronger and more effective? if it is 8:1 extract means that is 8 times stronger? ND Admin: The Megazyme beta glucan testing gives the results for 1,3 through 1,6 beta glucans. There are cellulose based 1,4 beta glucans that show up in the testing for the 1:1 extract. They have their own effects, but are not the primary beta glucans you are interested in for lion's mane. The 8:1 does not pull those 1,4 beta glucans over. So it concentrates the 1,3 and 1,6 beta glucans. You get less total beta glucans, but your are getting more of the really good ones. It also concentrates other compounds, like erinacines and hericenones. However, there are no qualified reference standards for those yet. Therefore, we are unable to properly quantify the exact numbers. We are working to improve the methods and reference standards to get these numbers validated, though.

    Very simple, it works.

    My biggest fear was not wanting to get ripped off so I did a lot of research. Lions Mane from Nootropics is the best quality hands down. I like the fact they hype it up but give the facts. My memory is better and I am clearer in my thoughts. I noticed an improvement after 2 to 3 weeks of use. Now I'm a repeat customer!

    Wonderful addition to a daily stack

    This product has some issue with clumping, that is why only 4 stars. More potent than other brands I’ve tried. I already placed my next order, got the 60grams this time!
