Lion's mane is well-known for its remarkable ability to enhance cognitive functions, largely due to compounds known as hericenones that boost nerve growth factor (NGF), a key element for brain health. However, hericenones are sensitive to a variety of factors, from the mushroom's cultivation to the extraction process, which can impact their concentration. This is important because they naturally occur in small amounts; a little of these compounds go a long way, but due to their sensitivity, it's important to ensure their presence. Together Health's organic Lion's Mane supplement ensures a high level of these compounds. By using 100% fruiting bodies, meticulous selection of optimal growing mediums, time-honoured growing techniques and advanced extraction methods. Together Health guarantees a hericenones content of over 1.5% and confirms this with rigorous batch testing. Together Health's high-strength formulation is also unique, it contains a combination of a concentrated 20:1 dual extract and a full spectrum extract, equivalent to 9740 mg of mushroom.
