Lion's Mane by Swanson
Curious about the mushroom with the white beard? Lion's Mane by Swanson delivers 500 mg of Hericium erinaceus per capsule. In Dutch, this mushroom is called the pruikzwam, because of the long white strands that hang down like a mane. It is a plant-based supplement in a vegan capsule, made from the whole mushroom.
What Lion's Mane is
Lion's Mane is an edible mushroom that grows in nature on old deciduous trees. In East Asia, the pruikzwam has been eaten for centuries and used in herbal tradition. Today, Lion's Mane belongs to the group known as functional mushrooms. This product by Swanson is made from the fruiting body of the mushroom, dried and processed into powder. This way, you get the mushroom in a measured capsule form.
The compounds in the pruikzwam
Lion's Mane contains several characteristic compounds. The best-known are hericenones and erinacines. It also contains beta-glucans, a type of polysaccharides (long sugar chains) that are typical of mushrooms. This is purely about the natural composition of the mushroom.
How Lion's Mane is included in this product
Each capsule contains 500 mg of Hericium erinaceus, as powder from the fruiting body. Swanson does not add any isolated substance; you get the mushroom as it is. By the way, always pay attention to the source with mushroom products. Some brands use the fruiting body (the mushroom itself), others use mycelium (the root network). This product is made from the fruiting body. If you want to know which part of the mushroom you are getting, you know exactly with this product. The vegan capsule makes it suitable for a plant-based diet.
In short: Lion's Mane in capsule form, 500 mg of pruikzwam per capsule, sixty pieces in a jar, plant-based packaging. A direct way to get acquainted with this special mushroom.
