Lion’s Mane & Nerve Growth
Lion's Mane is the second confirmed ingredient in NeuraCept, visible directly on the product's own label graphic.
What It Is
Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is a medicinal mushroom that has been studied for its potential neurotrophic properties.
What "Neurotrophic" Actually Means
Research has looked at Lion's Mane's role in supporting nerve growth factor synthesis, a protein involved in the growth, maintenance, and survival of certain neurons.
What The Clinical Research Shows
A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial found Lion's Mane associated with improvements in mild cognitive impairment scores among older adults, though this is one trial in a specific population, not a guarantee for everyone.
An Honest Caveat
NeuraCept's own materials do not state a specific milligram amount for Lion's Mane, and no clinical trial of the finished NeuraCept formula itself exists, as far as we could find.
