Lion’s Mane extract offers a wide range of health benefits supported by research. Notably, it provides significant gastroprotective effects, helping to protect the gastric mucosa, combat ulcers, and alleviate symptoms of chronic gastritis. Its potential for neuroprotection and cognitive enhancement is promising, as some compounds can stimulate nerve growth factor synthesis and have shown efficacy in improving memory deficits and combating oxidative stress in animal models, suggesting benefits for neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease.
The extract also exhibits immunomodulatory and antitumor activities, primarily by activating immune cells such as macrophages to boost immunity and inhibit cancer cell growth. Furthermore, it demonstrates antioxidant, hypoglycemic, and hypolipidemic properties by scavenging free radicals and inhibiting key enzymes involved in sugar and fat metabolism.
Leveraging its effects, Lion’s Mane extract is utilized across various industries. In the pharmaceutical and health product sector, it is a key ingredient in many approved Chinese patent medicines and health supplements, such as "Hougu Pian" and "Weilening Pian," specifically used for treating chronic gastritis and gastric ulcers. In functional foods and specific dietary products, the extract is incorporated into nutritional powders, meal replacements, biscuits, smoothies, and beverages to enhance their health benefits.
The skincare and cosmetics industry values its antioxidant and moisturizing properties, using it in products like BB cream to help repair skin damage and refine pores. Furthermore, in agriculture and animal feed, its fermentation products are explored as feed additives to promote growth and health in animals.
The extract is standardized to contain 30% Polysaccharides, measured via Ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy.
It offers strong gastroprotective benefits (protecting gastric mucosa, combating ulcers, and chronic gastritis), neuroprotection (stimulating nerve growth factor synthesis, improving memory), immunomodulatory effects, and antioxidant properties.
It is widely applied in pharmaceuticals (for gastric health supplements), functional foods and beverages (meal replacements, biscuits, smoothies), skincare and cosmetics (antioxidant and moisturizing creams), and animal feed additives.
The extract has a shelf life of 24 months. It should be stored in its original packaging, protected from light, and kept at an optimal temperature between 10°C and 25°C.
No, the Technical Data Sheet states that the Lion's Mane extract is Non-Irradiated and Non-GMO.
The product is available in 1kg aluminium foil bags and 25kg drums (with dimensions of 37*37*50cm).
