1082 Lions Mane FAQs

Why would I buy New Zealand Lion’s Mane (Pekepeke-Kiore) over regular Lion’s Mane?

Regular Lion’s Mane (Hericium Erinaceus) products are all grown overseas (often China and East Asia), shipped to NZ and sold here by intermediary distributors (not growers).

Overseas mushroom cultivation can be associated with air pollution and intensive farming practices, resulting in contaminants like heavy metals and pesticides in the final product.

Has Mynd’s New Zealand Lion’s Mane been scientifically tested?

Research partners at Callaghan Innovation independently tested the Mynd New Zealand Lion’s Mane mushroom extract and demonstrated its efficacy against globally leading Lion's Mane products. The results indicate that our sample contained Erinacines A, G, (B) & Hericenones A, J.
