Benefits

Food supplement

Hericium (Hericium erinaceus), also known as Lion's Mane, is a mushroom that grows on trunks and stumps of deciduous trees in temperate forests. Its cascading shape, silky texture, and ivory color make it a species as recognizable as it is exceptional.

Its name Lion’s Mane comes from its unique appearance. Indeed, Hericium grows in the form of a sphere adorned with long, white, hanging filaments, resembling a mane. This unusual and rare appearance in the fungal kingdom has greatly contributed to its fame.

In traditional symbolism, the mane represents protection and wisdom. Furthermore, the intertwined structure of its filaments may also evoke the image of interconnected neurons.

Today, Hericium is one of the most studied mushrooms due to the richness of its active compounds (polysaccharides, including beta-glucans, as well as specific compounds such as hericenones and erinacines). These components give Hericium a unique biochemical signature, making it one of the most remarkable and atypical mushrooms in the global mycological heritage—both for its composition and its spectacular appearance.

Why choose MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium?

MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium is a unique combination of powder and extract of Hericium sporophore (the fruiting body, corresponding to the visible and active part of the mushroom) derived from organic farming, along with 2 microencapsulated microbiotic strains.

Our optimally dosed formula combines 500 mg of powder and 1 g of organic Hericium extract* standardized to 30% polysaccharides with 4 billion CFU** of 2 probiotic strains: Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BS01, in 2 gastro-resistant capsules.

For enhanced naturalness, MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium is suitable for vegans thanks to its 100% plant-based capsules. This choice ensures an approach perfectly aligned with high standards of quality and efficacy.

What does science say?

The bioactive compounds found in MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium have been thoroughly evaluated by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA):

  • - The probiotics (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BS01) help support the balance of intestinal flora.

However, to date, European legislation has not approved any health claims for Hericium. While no specific benefits are officially recognized, Hericium is attracting growing interest and offers promising potential worth exploring.

Moreover, Hericium is the subject of numerous scientific studies, and its biological mechanisms of action are well-documented in the literature. Multiple studies highlight interesting potential applications.

The benefits of MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium 

Mushroom and microbiota strains for a unique synergistic effect

Our MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® formulas combine mushrooms (powder and extracts) with targeted action and a probiotic core composed of two well-documented microbiota strains (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BS01), which contribute to the balance of the intestinal flora, thereby creating a unique synergistic effect between mushrooms and probiotics.

To ensure optimal effectiveness and synergy, each of our strains is individually microencapsulated in a plant-based coating layer specially designed to release the active ingredients in the intestine using Probio-Protect® technology. Thus, the strains only come into contact with other active ingredients upon release in the intestinal environment. This protection is enhanced by the use of plant-based gastro-resistant capsules.

A powerful synergy of Hericium Powder and Extract

MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium combines Hericium powder with its extract standardized in active molecules, offering a powerful and comprehensive synergistic approach. Each brings specific and complementary benefits.

Hericium powder contains the mushroom's full nutritional profile: fibers, polysaccharides including beta-glucans, terpenes, ganoderic acids, proteins, enzymes, minerals, and other micronutrients that constitute the mushroom's "totum" and act synergistically.

Derived from mushroom powder, the Hericium extract is a powerful form of the mushroom that concentrates the active ingredients found in the fungal matrix.

The combination of a mushroom powder (totum) with a standardized extract allows the overall molecular richness of the fungal totum to be combined with the concentration of active ingredients in the extract. This synergy reflects an integrative and functional approach, combining effectiveness and respect for the natural matrix.

 

Standardized Hericium extract highly concentrated in polysaccharides

The THERASCIENCE Laboratory has selected a standardized extract of Hericium (Hericium erinaceus) highly concentrated, with an extraction ratio of 8 to 1 (8:1).

Thus, 2 capsules of MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium provide 1 g of pure Hericium extract, equivalent to 8 g of mushroom powder, making our formula highly concentrated.

Moreover, our Hericium sporophore extract is distinguished by a precise dosage of 30% polysaccharides (active molecules), which represents 300 mg for 2 capsules.

Our standardized extract ensures consistent quality, thanks to a rigorous manufacturing process that guarantees a precise dosage of active molecules, especially polysaccharides.

This standardization ensures optimal effectiveness, a key requirement for a high-quality dietary supplement.

Choosing MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium means opting for a formula that meets the most demanding scientific standards and a premium mushroom thanks to a highly dosed extract. An ideal solution to fully benefit from the benefits of Hericium.

Organic mushrooms: superior and exceptional quality

To ensure the optimal quality of our formulas, certain aspects of mushroom cultivation are essential.

First, our mushrooms are from organic farming and grown without pesticides, ensuring their purity.

Additionally, each mushroom species follows its own development cycle, allowing it to produce all of its compounds, found in the sporophore (fruiting body).

This is why our mushrooms are harvested at maturity and our formulas provide only the active part of the mushrooms, without any growing substrate.

MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® Hericium thus provides all the active molecules of Hericium, essential for its effectiveness.

Expertise from harvest to extract

After harvesting, the mushrooms are immediately dried under optimal conditions to preserve their quality. Once manually inspected, only those with flawless quality are selected and allowed to be processed into powder, then into standardized extract with titrated active molecules.

After drying, the fruiting bodies of the mushrooms are ground into a very fine powder using the so-called “shellbroken” method, which mechanically breaks the wall of each mushroom cell to release all its active compounds and optimize their bioavailability.

The extraction of Hericium's active molecules is then carried out without organic solvents. Our extracts are obtained through aqueous extraction, during which the ground mushrooms are decocted for several hours at a controlled temperature, without boiling. This gentle method helps preserve the structure of the mushrooms’ active molecules.

This step requires real technical expertise. Indeed, each fungal species requires specific parameters for time and temperature to optimally release its beneficial compounds, especially polysaccharides.

Analysis and traceability: controlled mushrooms

The quality of the mushrooms selected in MUSHROOMSSENTIEL® is essential to ensure the safety, purity, and effectiveness of the powders and extracts used. Their control ensures strict compliance with standards and optimal consistency from one batch to another.

Each batch of raw materials undergoes rigorous quality control, carried out according to standardized operating procedures and in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). These controls include several analytical steps to ensure the purity, compliance, and safety of fungal extracts.

One of the key methods used is size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), a cutting-edge technique that accurately measures the amount of polysaccharides in mushroom extracts. This method also provides a unique chromatographic fingerprint for each species, serving as an identity profile. It thus confirms the exact nature of the mushroom used, evaluates its intrinsic quality, and detects any potential adulteration.
