From Skeptic To Believer!
From time to time, I'll find a natural remedy touted as an ancient Chinese secret or revolutionary new homeopathic silver bullet that supposed to compete with controlled, pharmaceutical drugs and give it an honest try for up to three weeks. Sometimes I find results supporting some part of the claim, other times (usually) I don't. This time, to my surprise, I found very noteworthy results.
I'm a hard-wired night person with an 8AM - 5PM (or 6PM or 7PM or...) career. I generally had 28 oz of coffee in the morning and 12 more in the early afternoon to keep me going. I often found myself struggling to stay on topic and find the right words to best communicate my message. I would also have those "what was I doing again" and "why did I come into this room" moments more times a day than I cared to admit. Within less than two weeks of taking this product, I was able to cut out back on my morning coffee intake and cut out the afternoon coffee entirely. Because I don't sleep well, I would still feel physically sleepy, but my mind was still alert and engaged. It didn't take long before the lack of afternoon coffee resulted in a better quality of sleep, so now I'm both more alert and energized in throughout the day. I can't tell you the last time I had one of those "alzheimer's moments", and when I have to address several small distractions while taking care of a task, I'm able to get back to that initial task faster. My girlfriend has been taking it as well. Without tell her what I experienced, I asked her if she's noticed anything different since taking Lion's Mane. Her responses were very similar to mine.
The product has a light, earthy scent and flavor that works well in coffee and mixed into a variety of foods. Since March 13th, I taken 5 grams every single day: 3 in the morning mixed into my coffee, and 2 in the early afternoon mixed into some yogurt with a little peanut butter. I've read that it works best when steeped, which is why I add it to my coffee (maybe that matters, maybe it doesn't... but it's easy since the coffee's already part of my morning ritual). I also take on a relatively empty stomach along with some "good fats" to help put my brain in a good state to work with the product.
In conclusion I found this product delivers desirable results, has a palatable taste, and no undesired side-effects were experienced. I would recommend this product to anyone who is willing to make the investment in their health.
