Origin: China
With a long history of usage in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Lion’s Mane mushroom (Hericium erinaceus) is one of the most renowned medicinal mushrooms famous for its cognitive enhancing abilities to support memory, focus, clarity, and overall brain health. Scientific research has also shown that Lion’s Mane may be effective at protecting against dementia, relieving symptoms of anxiety and depression, and helping stimulate the synthesis of nerve growth factor (NGF).
Our Lion’s Mane mushroom is Di Tao sourced deep within the mountainous region of Zhejiang Province, USDA & EU certified organic, 100% fruiting body, dual extracted, 30% beta-glucans, thoroughly lab-tested for potency and purity, and contains no grains, additives, fillers, or mycelium – making our extract one of the purest and most potent on the market.

Kelp is a seaweed that grows in shallow and nutrient-rich waters around New Zealand and most of the world. It's one of the best natural food sources of Iodine and contains a high content of vitamins and minerals. Iodine is an essential nutrient clinically proven to protect and maintain healthy cognitive function, regulate energy levels, and facilitate the production of thyroid hormones.
Scientific Research Links:
– Iodine consumption and cognitive performance
– Neuroprotective effects of seaweeds
– Thyroid hormones are associated with cognitive function
– Iodine improves cognition in iodine-deficient schoolchildren
Origin: India
L-theanine is a nootropic and rare amino acid extracted from leaves of the green tea plant (Camellia sinensis) that has similar properties to the neurotransmitter L-glutamine. Clinical research has shown that it can increase dopamine production and enhance alpha brainwaves by crossing the blood-brain barrier. By moderating alpha activity, L-theanine can help induce a sense of calm while at the same time sharpening focus, attention, and alertness.
