MycoMedica Hericium 90 vegetable capsules

Harmonizing the stomach and spleen

The effect of Hericium on NFG (nerve growth factor) production is currently being investigated. In traditional Chinese medicine, Hericium was primarily used for its ability to harmonize the stomach and spleen. Like other vital mushrooms, Hericium is rich in polysaccharides – beta-glucans, minerals, trace elements, and also contains specific diterpenoids – hericenones and erinacines. Other significant components of Hericium include palmitic acid, the sugar alcohol threitol and D-arabinitol, or provitamin D2, and others.

Hericium (lion's mane mushroom, Hericium erinaceus) is an edible basidiomycete vital mushroom originating from Asia, and is also found frequently in North America. Hericium can also rarely be found in our country.

The mushroom gets its name from the unique shape of its fruiting body, which is spherical and branched and can reach up to 30 cm in diameter. Hericium has a delicate taste and consistency reminiscent of fish. It grows parasitically in clusters on damaged tree trunks or stumps. Hericium holds a firm place in traditional Chinese medicine. According to it, Hericium can balance yin and yang imbalances throughout the entire organism.

Ancient Chinese and Japanese physicians were able to utilize its An Shen (calm the spirit) function and also knew of its beneficial effect on strengthening mental functions.
