Lion's mane looks like a white pom-pom and has been cooked in East Asian kitchens for a long time. In supplements it is sold as a dried extract.

Most of the excitement comes from lab studies. The human trials so far are small, short and not always consistent, so it is best treated as a promising ingredient rather than a proven one.

If a label lists it, look for the form (fruiting body or mycelium) and the milligrams per serving.

In Cognicept: this name is on the seller’s list. Without the Supplement Facts panel we cannot tell you how much a serving holds.
