New Roots Lion's Mane Extract 500mg 60 Veggie Caps

- Lion’s Mane Extract 500mg Lion’s mane (Hericium erinaceus) extract (40% polysaccharides) is a potent source of beta-glucans, which stimulate immune functions
- Lion’s mane, a magnificent member of the mushroom kingdom found in North America, Europe, and Asia, is cultivated in shade-free, climate-controlled greenhouses to reduce strain on the natural supply of this medicinal mushroom amidst growing commercial demand
- New Roots Herbal presents Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus), a hot water–extracted medicinal mushroom formula standardized to contain 40% polysaccharides (500 mg per capsule)
- Hot-water extraction, the traditional Asian method, is critical for obtaining a high-quality and effective mushroom product
- In the whole mushroom, polysaccharides are bound by an indigestible cell wall comprised of chitin; hot water is needed to gently release the medicinal components, the mushroom polysaccharides
- Conversely, grinding the mushroom may cause damage to the long-chain polysaccharides and fails to remove the indigestible chitin (fibre), limiting the amount of therapeutic constituents that can be fit per capsule
- Standardization ensures that the final product contains a consistent amount of polysaccharides to allow the delivery of a therapeutic dose
