Lion’s Mane – Wild Alaskan Harvested  Double Extract

A blend of Alaska’s two wild Hericium species, this Lion’s Mane double extract is made from H. coralloides and H. abietis.

These mushrooms have been shown to have beneficial effects to the brain and nervous system. Specific compounds called corallocins have shown the ability to induce nerve growth factor in human brain cells.

Because of this promising research, Hericum is growing in popularity. We have plans to test our local Alaskan strains for potency. It is generally understood that “wild” mushrooms are far superior to “lab” mushrooms in terms of nutritional potency.

How do we make our Lion’s Mane Tincture: Double Extract?

We start with wild harvested Alaskan wild Lion’s Mane, sourced from the Chaga Co-op, Alaska’s only ethical wild foods foraging cooperative. These mushrooms sit in organic alcohol for a minimum of 6 weeks, being shaken regularly. This releases the alcohol soluble compounds. Then we actually use NEW mushrooms to make the water soluble portion of the extract, which is then mixed 1:1 with the alcohol tincture. This is unlike most other herbal extracts where the same material, or “mark”, is used for both steps.
