Dual Extract Brainiac Blend
Hericium erinaceous + Ganoderma sessile
2 oz | 1:3 ratio | +/- 40% ABV
+/- 330 mg adaptogens per ml
Lion's Mane and Reishi are both vital adaptogen mushrooms. They help reduce the effects of stress on the body and balance total body system regulation, including hormonal cycles, the immune system, and the neural system.
Lion's Mane is especially good at boosting creativity, regulating mood, and enhancing cognitive function. Reishi helps control the body's stress-responses and may improve physical stamina, strength, and overall health as a result.
How it’s Made
To make this medicinal masterpiece, I start with whole reishi and lion's mane mushroom fruiting bodies. These are always wild, always organic, and always foraged by me to ensure a high-quality product.
The mushrooms are dehydrated, shredded, and macerated in a 190-proof alcohol solution for six weeks to extract ethanol-soluble compounds. After six weeks, the fruiting bodies are pressed and slow-decocted for 24 hours in water to extract water-soluble compounds.
The procedure is done separately by mushroom type since each may appear separately according to the weather and seasons. Once both have been dual-extracted, I combine the resulting solutions in a 50/50 blend.
How to Use
Begin with a few drops to see how well you tolerate the tincture. If you have no negative effects it is safe to begin a small dose of 1-2 ml per day. Over time, you may want to increase this dose depending on your body weight and how well it works for you.
