Lion’s Mane: This mushroom is celebrated for its ability to stimulate the growth of nerve cells and enhance cognitive function. In the realm of gut health, Lion’s Mane also plays a role in supporting the gut-brain connection, and promoting the healing of the digestive lining. In particular Lion's mane extract may protect against the development of stomach ulcers by inhibiting the growth of H. pylori and protecting the stomach lining from damage. The hot water extract of Lion’s Mane we use may be particularly effective in reducing gut inflammation and strengthening the gut lining and reducing the passage of harmful substances into the bloodstream (leaky gut), thus creating a healthier environment for beneficial bacteria to thrive, therefore promoting gut healing.
