Animate pairs two of the most-researched functional mushrooms — 8:1 organic Lion's Mane and 8:1 organic Cordyceps — chosen for the way their bioactive compounds appear in different parts of the body.

What's in the capsule

Lion's Mane and the brain. The fruiting body of Lion's Mane contains hericenones and erinacines — small molecules that have been shown in research to cross the blood-brain barrier and to be present in tissues where nerve growth factor (NGF) is synthesised. Our extract is third-party verified for hericenone C at >2mg/g.
Cordyceps and cellular energy. Cordyceps is the source of cordycepin, a nucleoside structurally similar to adenosine — the molecule that sits at the centre of ATP, the cell's energy currency. Our extract is third-party verified for cordycepin at >10mg/g.
Beta-D-glucans, present at >25%. Both species are characterised by high beta-D-glucan content — the polysaccharide fraction researchers use as a quality marker in published mushroom-extract studies.

Each two-capsule serving provides the dry-weight equivalent of 3,600 mg Lion's Mane and 3,600 mg Cordyceps, reflecting the 8:1 concentration of the extract. Independently tested by NMR metabolomics at Purity-iQ. Certified organic by the Soil Association.

Each Capsule Contains:

Organic Lion's Mane 8:1 Mushroom Extract (Hericium erinaceus) 225mg (1800mg equivalent)
Beta-D-glucans >25%
Organic Cordyceps 8:1 Mushroom Extract (Cordyceps sinensis) 225mg (1800mg equivalent)
Beta-D-glucans >20%
Cordycepin 1%

Our mushroom extracts are made from 100% fruiting bodies and are grown on real wood with natural sunlight, fresh air and spring water.

We use an advanced, temperature controlled dual-extraction and vacuum drying process to condense the mushrooms into a high-concentration powder extract, which is third-party tested for bioactive compounds.

Take 2 capsules each morning on an empty stomach.

Lion’s Mane Mushroom and Brain Health: The Science Behind Cognitive Benefits

Explore the potential brain-boosting effects of Lion's Mane mushroom. Learn how compounds like hericenones and erinacines may enhance cognitive function, support neuroprotection, and stimulate NGF production.

Our mushrooms are sourced from the pristine, remote mountain regions of Southeast China, an area celebrated for its rich heritage and long-standing expertise in cultivating medicinal mushrooms.

This location, far removed from industrial areas, allows us to harvest organic certified mushrooms of the highest quality. Emphasising purity and potency, we select only the finest mushroom fruiting bodies, grown and wild-harvested in carefully protected environments.

Mushroom supplements are most effective when taken consistently over an extended period. As adaptogenic substances, mushrooms work gradually to support the body's natural ability to cope with stress and maintain balance. For some individuals, noticeable improvements may be observed within a few weeks, while for others, it may take longer.

Medicinal mushrooms have been used safely for thousands of years. While allergic reactions or sensitivities are rare, they can occur. We recommend individuals who are taking medication or have preexisting health conditions consult with a healthcare practitioner before starting mushroom supplements.

You can find a comprehensive FAQ section on our website that addresses a wide range of common inquiries.
