Lion’s mane extract is one of the medicinal mushroom extracts we provide at Fungi Ally
Our lion’s mane extract comes from the consciously-wildcrafted mushroom. Lion’s mane, hericium erinaceus, is a beautiful pink to white mushroom that has a few interesting resemblances. It doesn’t have the cap and stem most people think of when they consider mushrooms. Lion’s mane looks like a clump of teeth or spines, or perhaps a lion’s mane. Others think the mushroom looks like a brain, and from the standpoint of the Doctrine of Signatures, that makes a lot of sense.
The Doctrine of Signatures says that herbs and mushrooms resembling parts of the body have medicinal value to those areas. Perhaps those who see a brain when they look at lion’s mane mushrooms are onto something.
