Lions Mane is a mushroom that is known to improve brain function such as thinking, learning, and memory.
It has been proven to stimulate neurogenesis which is the process by which new neurons or brain cells are formed in the brain.
It also aids in preventing and even treating neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's. It is a great supplement for the elderly.
It increases the production of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) which is crucial for the growth, maintenance, and survival brain cells.
Low levels of NGF are associated with various neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinsons, Multiple Sclerosis, epilepsy and Huntington's Disease.
Although Lions Mane is well known to help with brain function it also has a variety of other benefits. A few other benefits include reducing anxiety & depression, boosting the immune system, reducing inflammation and oxidative stress and preventing cancer.
