Lion's mane is the mushroom people take for focus and clear-headed days. Two capsules with a meal, morning or midday, at the same time each day.
02
A hot-water extract of the whole fruiting body, gram for gram. Opening the cell walls with hot water makes the mushroom more bioavailable.
03
A source of fungal polysaccharides with immunomodulating properties: the claim reviewed and licensed by Health Canada under NPN 80108430.
One kilogram of dried fruiting body makes one kilogram of extract. It is hot-water extracted, not concentrated: opening the mushroom's tough cell walls with hot water makes the whole fruiting body more bioavailable.
500 mg dried fruiting body

Hericium erinaceus fruiting body, 500 mg per capsule as a 1:1 hot-water extract, in a plant-based hypromellose shell. No fillers, flow agents or grain.
Actives vary a little from batch to batch. The figures here are minimums or typical values, and every input batch is tested.
Most mushroom supplements in North America are mycelium grown on grain, with the grain left in. Here is the difference.

"Typical" describes practices common across mushroom supplements sold in North America. It is not a comparison with any named brand, and products vary.
Every Purana label says the same few things, and each one was a decision. Here is what they mean.
100% fruiting body, sourced to our own standards for potency and purity. The substrate a mushroom is grown on never makes it into a Purana capsule.
Our 8:1, 10:1 and 16:1 dual extracts name their compounds, and every input batch is tested for potency and purity.
Each product was reviewed by Health Canada, formula, manufacturing and claims, and issued its own Natural Product Number, printed on the label and linked on this page.
Organic, non-GMO and vegan, made in a GMP-certified facility in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Inputs are tested for heavy metals, pesticides and microbes. Nothing added that a label would have to explain.
Once daily, with food. The NPN allows one to two, one to two times a day.
Morning or midday. Same time each day.
One bottle, one full habit. Decide on that.

Mushroom extracts work through slow biology. The habit is the product. Here is the shape of the first two months.
Two capsules with a meal. Nothing to feel yet, and that is normal. The first days are about the habit, not a sensation.
Same time, same meal. By now the pair of capsules is part of the meal rather than a decision.
Most human trials of these mushrooms run four to twelve weeks of daily use. Notice how your days are going.
A full bottle is sixty days at two capsules a day. If it has earned its place, reorder or subscribe.
human trialTwelve weeks of lion's mane fruiting body improved cognitive test scores in healthy older adults compared with placebo.
28dayshuman trialIn healthy young adults, a single dose sped up a cognitive processing task; 28 days trended toward lower self-reported stress.
β-glucanassayanalyticalAnalytical methods separate true beta-glucan from the grain starch found in mycelium-on-grain products.
Research is reported as research, about the people or cells in each study. It describes the ingredient, not a promise about this product.
One kilogram of dried fruiting body makes one kilogram of extract. It is hot-water extracted, not concentrated; opening the cell walls with hot water makes the mushroom more bioavailable.
The 1:1 is the whole fruiting body, hot-water extracted and not concentrated. The 8:1 dual extract is concentrated eight times and also concentrates compounds such as hericenones. Many people take both.
Fruiting body only. The fruiting body is the mushroom itself. Mycelium is the root-like network it grows from, usually cultivated on grain, and mycelium products often contain that grain. There is no mycelium, grain or filler in a Purana capsule.
Two capsules once daily, with food. The NPN allows one to two capsules, one to two times a day.
Yes. NPN 80108430, issued by Health Canada after a review of the formula, the manufacturing and the claims. The NPN wording is: a source of fungal polysaccharides with immunomodulating properties.
The extract, and a hypromellose capsule shell (plant-derived, vegan). No fillers, flow agents or additives.
