I drink a coffee alternative that happens to have Lion's Mane in it. Can't really be objective on if it has really made a difference in my memory since that's not the reason I primarily bought it (it was to get off coffee which is negatively impacting me).
- rubicon33 4y agoHey there, mind sharing the product? Sounds interesting!
- TedDoesntTalk 4y agoI add Laird Performance Mushroom powder to my coffee… when I can remember. Unfortunately it’s not cheap. I leaned about it from Dr Rhonda Patrick https://lairdsuperfood.com/products/performance-mushrooms?variant=32964577329187 https://lairdsuperfood.com/products/performance-mushrooms?va...
- rubicon33 4y agoThanks!
- nsenifty 4y agoThis brand, along with most other US sourced products (including Paul Stamet's brand) contains more biomass (the grain substrate on which mushroom grows) than the mushroom itself. For instance, one of the FAQ on their site states it has 2g of starch per 2g serving! I am looking for a good lion's mane supplement in the US too but I haven't found a good one yet.
- say_it_as_it_is 4y agoIs there a lab that verifies this?
- sainez 4y agoThe supplement industry is in sorry state. It hurts to see people throwing away money on useless products on Amazon. Real Mushrooms is the only mushroom supplier I trust. (No affiliation, you can find discussions about them on Reddit)
- sammalloy 4y ago10 ounces for $87. That’s crazy.
- carabiner 4y agoProbably MUDWTR
- UncleOxidant 4y ago> Can't really be objective on if it has really made a difference in my memory since that's not the reason I primarily bought it Wouldn't that actually be more objective since you'd be avoiding any kind of placebo effect as you weren't expecting any effects on memory?
- anonyfox 4y agoMe too, https://spacegoods.com/ https://spacegoods.com/ and I can confirm it eliminates the need for coffee during the day as well as it helps for staying in the zone a bit
- amelius 4y agoThanks for the link. I just looked at the ingredients list, and it still contains "coffee extract", which I find a bit strange.
- anonyfox 4y agothats fine for me, because it literally replaces a liter of coffee per day or even more, and keeps the headache from caffeine withdrawal at bay
- sammalloy 4y agoHeads up: Safeway brand organics green tea with matcha has an unusually high amount of natural caffeine, like crazy amount. And no coffee jitters due to synergistic effects of l-theanine. Perfectly fine if you can just limit yourself to just one or two cups.
- dunefox 4y agoAlso Guayusa tea. Tastes great, no bittnerness, and a nice amount of caffeine.
- Karawebnetwork 4y agoIt contains both coffee extract and cocoa powder. The cocoa powder contains about 11.5 mg of caffeine per tablespoon (5 grams). I'm sure this is a great product and an alternative to a "cup of coffee", but it's clearly not a caffeine alternative. Which is fine, as long as people understand what they are buying. The "natural caffeine" listing is 80mg for an 8g serving on the website. So the transparency is good.
- say_it_as_it_is 4y agoFourSigmatic coffee is real coffee with lions mane. Did you try something else?
- elif 4y agohttps://us.foursigmatic.com/products/instant-lions-mane https://us.foursigmatic.com/products/instant-lions-mane This is the product I used to eliminate coffee. It has no coffee.
