Lion's Mane Organic Mushroom Powder 100g

Medicinal mushrooms have been used in Eastern medicine for thousands of years and have gained even more popularity as of late. 

The list of health benefits medicinal mushrooms provide is lengthy (think: brain booster, hormone helper, antioxidant powerhouse). But each mushroom is unique and provides its own distinct health advantages.

As dogs age, they can often start to show some mental changes. In dogs this is CCD, or canine cognitive dysfunction. Some people call it doggie Alzheimer’s.  

Senior dogs can get a little disoriented. You might see your dog stuck in a corner or behind furniture … or he may forget to go outdoors to pee. If you spot some of these signs, Lion’s Mane may help. 

Prevention is important for doggie dementia. So giving Lion’s Mane to your younger dog may also help keep his brain working at its best. 

Lion’s Mane are amazing mushrooms for boosting the brain and nervous system. The brain boosting benefits are by far their most famous medicinal property. Lion’s Mane can actually improve brain function and memory. It can also stimulate nerve growth … and even help regenerate damaged nerves. 

Lion’s Mane may also be useful in preventing and managing cancer.

Lion’s Mane can also support your dog’s digestive health, which supports his immune health. 

Oligosaccharides in Lion’s Mane mean it’s a prebiotic that helps feed the good bacteria in your dog’s gut. Prebiotics make probiotics more effective … and that’s a good thing. More than 80% of your dog’s immune system lives in his gut, so gut health is the foundation of all health for your dog. 

Lion’s Mane may also help regenerate the intestinal lining and may prevent or repair leaky gut. And it’s been shown to have anti-ulcer effects as well as control IBD.  

Lion’s Mane can support cardiovascular health by reducing chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation can lead to heart problems … and other related issues like diabetes. 

Lion’s Mane may also help with fat metabolism. It can help control obesity, a contributing factor in heart disease. And it can limit oxidative stress to the arteries.

You always want to avoid using antibiotics for your dog’s infections. Antibiotics kill the bacteria causing the infection. But they destroy bacteria indiscriminately, so they also damage your dog’s microbiome. 

Lion’s Mane has some powerful antibacterial properties. 

MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) is a stubborn infection that often affects hospital patients. Antibiotic resistance makes MRSA very hard to ger rid of. Dogs can get a different strain of bacteria called MRSP – methicillin-resistant staphylococcus pseudointermedius. And, like MRSA, it can be very hard to treat. 

These type of infections are more common in immune-compromised dogs. MRSA or MRSP in dogs can lead to chronic problems like:

• Wounds that are slow to heal or get infected
• Persistent skin infections or abscesses
• Chronic UTIs, ear or eye infections

So, if your dog struggles with stubborn bacterial infections, Lion’s Mane may help fight them. 

These are just a few of the many benefits Lion’s Mane can bring your dog.
