How Can I Try Lion's Mane?

While you might notΒ rememberΒ seeing it in a grocery store before, it's a lot easier to find than you think. Lion's mane mushrooms are widely available in organic grocery stores, farmers' markets, and wellness events.

Raw Mushrooms

This might be the first place you think to if you're going to try out a brand new supplement or food like mushrooms. Raw mushrooms are a great place to start cooking with medicinal mushrooms like lion's mane and familiarizing yourself with how they can best be used.Β Β 

However, raw mushrooms require a whole lot more work, and you might find yourself taking a load of extra time out of your day to prep them.Β 

Mushroom Powders

What makes powders great for trying supplements is their versatility. When it comes to mushrooms in powders, you can pack lion's mane into a protein shake, your next meal plan, or just taking it with a different part of your routine like overnight oats. Still, powders can be messy. They also will often have caffeine or other additives to keep the flavor consistent and add extra value from mushrooms you might not be looking for. That's where organically powerful, caffeine-free gummies can really set themselves apart.Β 

Mushroom Gummies

Overall, mushroom gummies are the best all around supplement form. They offer delicious flavors, great ingredients, and are a fraction of the cost of raw mushrooms. Also, you can get a very precise serving of mushrooms every single day without adding a single thing to your routine. Just grab a gummy and go.
