These mushrooms are large, white, shaggy mushrooms that resemble a lion’s mane as they grow. Research has found that lion’s mane may protect against dementia, reduce mild symptoms of anxiety and depression and help repair nerve damage. It also has strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immune-boosting abilities. Lion’s mane has a flavor and texture similar to crab or lobster. It has also been used as a chicken substitute.
Lion’s Mane is considered both an esteemed edible mushroom and a valuable medicinal and is currently being studied for its effects on neural health, Alzheimer’s, and dementia. The mushroom contains a substance called erinacine, which has the ability to catalyze the production of nerve growth factor (NFG) and reduce the effects of Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative disorders (Yamada et al., 1997). A study in Japan, on men aged 50-80 years old with mild cognitive impairment, suggests that Lion’s Mane is effective at improving cognition. Subjects were split into two groups and half were given dry powdered Lion’s Mane three times a day and observed over 16 weeks. At weeks 8, 12, and 16, the group taking Lion’s Mane scored significantly better on a cognitive test than the other half in the placebo group (Mori et al., 2008).
