Hi, I’m new to the world of mushroom supplements. I tried a free sample I got at a convention and really enjoyed how they lifted some of my brain fog I have been dealing with after having covid a few times. It also feels like it might help my currently unmedicated ADHD. It doesn’t feel like a cure all, but it does feel like it makes me more functional and mentally sharp.

The company I got the sample from sells a 30 day supply for $80 and it seems kind of like an MLM. I searched google a little bit and ultimately, I can’t tell what’s BS and what’s legit when buying products like these anymore.

Could anyone point me in the right direction, or tell me some reputable sources? I’m really looking for any mushroom that helps boost energy and focus. Ideally, something I could buy in bulk or something relatively decent priced. I’m pretty poor but I feel like with a steady source of these I could stop blowing $15-20 a week on energy drinks to survive working 50ish hours a week at two somewhat mentally and physically demanding jobs.

I was thinking about doing some independent testing.And sharing those tests with the community. Any ideas of reasonably priced, good labs?

I took half a capsule of lion's mane from oriveda. I had a negative reaction. It was their hot water extract. It gave me a headache, it is calming down now. I never have headaches, ever. This is the first headache I've had that I can remember. What happened? Is it just a bad match for my body? Well it help if I make it into a tea the next time?

Hey, does anyone know of a good quality suppliers manufactured in the USA? This is for a brand so dietary supplement suppliers.

Hello everyone.

Ive always been into supplements, but recently I’ve started to be curious by mushroom supplements.

A bit about me: Diabetic type 2 (somewhat under control)

Working on dropping fat %, have a good bit to go

Currently on Adderall for ADHD, but looking to get off of it.

Sleep is beyond terrible.

I’m looking for a supplement stack to take to help with all of this, and I’ve read mushrooms are a good place to dabble.

Thanks!

Hi!

I read about people experience kidney and liver problem when using Chaga.

Is Chaga safe for long term?

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23149251/

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8913114/

I also use Moringa and Shilajit will that be a problem when using Chaga due to high levels of oxalate?

What do you think?

Any recommendations?

Modern Herb Shop has been out of stock for over a week. Anyone order from us.oriveda? They seem to have also just changed the packaging as well which only adds more doubt to my concern.

Hey guys, If i decided to take these together is that safe? I know black seed oil and manuka honey together are fine. I plan on taking them in the morning and maitake mushroom at night. Would that be okay?

I’ve been taking the tinctures from lifecykel for a few months now (lions mane, cordyceps, reishe, chaga and turkey tail). After starting research into these I decided to bite the price bullet and try oriveda. I ordered the lions mane combo package 180/120 v-caps and the Cordyceps 120 caps. How do you that are knowledgeable about these supplements expect my experience with them to change. Based on what I have read LifeCykel is very potent, but I have noticed some effects (placebo or not). If I feel it I feel it. Should I start off on lower dosages of these to see how that goes or just jump in to recommended? Any insights appreciated

Good quality supplements manufactured in EU?

Hi!

I been taking Oriveda CCCE for a longer time now and it has helped me so much.

But i’m now also planning to combine Oriveda Lions mane, Cordycepts, Reishi and Chaga.

Is this to much if i hold on to recommended dosage?

I want to get better sleep and also better physichal state and i think this combination will help me with that.

I know CCCE already include Lions mane and Cordycepts but it is only the water based ones and does not include everything.

I don’t want to stop with CCCE because it works really good for my gut health.

Any recommendations?

I also take Moringa and Shilajit as well.

Planning of taking CCCE in the morning with Cordycepts and Lions mane in the afternoon and Chaga and Reishi at night.

Lions mane for instance

What would be the best blend of mushrooms one could get on Amazon (United States) I've taken genius brand blend but not noticing anything

New here! Any information would be appreciate.

Hello.

Since I started make research I have found that these mushrooms has a lot of similiar properties. Lions mane used more than 2000 years before, Reishi 4000 years and I found on my language this about Reishi:

it has an anti-aging, detoxifying, performance-enhancing effect, improves blood circulation, and increases resistance. It has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the heart, liver, lungs and spleen. Traditionally, this medicinal mushroom was used for diseases of the digestive system (e.g. stomach and intestinal problems), liver and kidney diseases, lung diseases, high blood pressure, nervousness, insomnia, and also to increase mental performance.

Studies have also shown its positive effects on the cardiovascular system and fat metabolism, for example a reduction in high blood pressure, an improvement in heart muscle function, and an alleviation of the symptoms of people suffering from coronary artery disease. It also has a proven beneficial effect in liver diseases (e.g. hepatitis B), lung diseases (e.g. asthma) or allergic diseases. The positive effects of the seal wax mushroom are also due to the fact that it is rich in vitamins, minerals, trace elements, sterols, amino and fatty acids, and contains more than 150 types of triterpenes. Thanks to its anti-tumor polysaccharide active ingredients, it can be used for cancer diseases, e.g. for lung cancer or bowel cancer.

The problem is that this sounds too good. But I cannot believe anything or internet since years. People arguing and someone say it helped him and someone said no. I know everything hit different on people but whats the true?

Came across this brand while on instagram. They claim to be 3rd party tested, dual extracted and all of that. I'm on Oriveda currently and noticing mental improvements in terms of mood, and focus.

Im looking for a fungal suppliment with the classic smart mushrooms. Any info on the different types of fungus, and their supposed health and medicinal benefits would be greatly appreciated. Thank you ✌🏻

The sell mushroom extract resin. https://extractive.store/collections/mushroom-extracts. Anyone try these ?

Am I the only person that gets hugely sick from trying Four Sigmatic? Not one of their flavors agrees with me. Sad bc I have a whole box of the Calm Chai latte reishi mix.
(I prefer to grow my own mushrooms.)

Would love to hear from people on this.

It says 50% Beta-D-glucans and is much less expensive than Real Mushrooms. I prefer powders.

I emailed them but curious if anyone knows anything good or bad...thanks!

Hello,

As the title says, do you know if since Oriveda started shipping from China due to EU's regulations on Novel foods, will it have the same high quality as previously? I can see that they even changed the design. I'm just a bit worried that if it's fully processed in China now, there is a high risk of no longer getting what we used to and Oriveda staying the top name as far as quality goes.

The prices seems to be the same. So anyone knows about the quality?

Been taking Naturealm Sacred 7 every morning for quite a while. My wife prefers to take a capsules and capsules are obviously better when I/we travel. Usually get Host Defense Stamets 7, and reading those aren’t great in terms of potency. We take them for immunity, no specific issues we are trying to address.

Any recommendations for a blend in a capsule that is actually good with real test results?

Appreciate any input.

How does everyone consume mushroom extracts?

Does anyone else really enjoy the combination of these two mushrooms?

Does anyone know where I can find a supplier of extracts and tinctures that sell this combination?

Thanks!

Apparently all of them have brain benefits. Do each of them offer different benefits?

Hello everyone, I’ve used lion’s male for 3-4 months. Firstly, I noticed that I start cum faster than it was before. 1 week ago I stopped using lion’s mane and firsts days was normal, I had a good erection, I didn’t cum so fast, but now I can’t make it boner. Guys, I’m begging you tell me that everything gonna be fine, I’m only 18 and I want have normal life.

I received this answer when I told a company that I didn't want to buy their products anymore because they refuse to analyze or conduct tests for beta-glucan levels in their products. They only state that they're "standardized 30% polysaccharides".

How was your experience?

I noticed that they use Cordyceps Militaris which contains Cordycepins (if I'm not mistaken). I'm currently on Oriveda's Lions mane and was thining to include Cordyceps too. But the shipping time for Oriveda made me look at amazon and this product got me thinking.

I still do think Oriveda is the most transparent and their lions mane is having a positive effect on me (will put down a review later). Thanks!

I ordered Oriveda CCCE and it has been very nice! I feel like it is helping with my mental health and connecting with deep feelings i was trying to avoid and it seems to also help with aches and pains.

I did get nauseous when taking the pills, but emptying the pills contents into warm water and stirring makes a nice beverage and seems to aid in digestion. :)

I've seen both case scenario where people of some day it increasesd their libido while other say it decreases it , what's your opinion on trying to reverse reduced libido caused by lions mane with cordyceps which is known to increase libido
