This is exactly how I envisioned a mushroom guru to look like. If you claim to be a shroom expert and you dont have a hat like this, how can you be trusted?
I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years, with so much anxiety not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Germany. Really need
My mom recently had a brain tumor removed and I remember seeing this podcast so I got her some to maybe help with recovery. After surgery you can have nerve paralysis (part of the face is droopy/cant move) so I thought maybe this will help. After her 3 month check up, the doctor said she was healing/recovering faster than any of the patient that had that particular tumor removed (acoustic neuroma). I told them about Lions mane on the first month visit and they brushed it off because they hadn't heard anything about it, but she kept taking it, I think it actually helped her nerves recover faster than normal. There isn't really any way to prove it other than the doctor saying the recover is happening "faster than normal". Maybe someone will see this comment and it will help.
@@badassvette1542 Nah, most doctors actually get a so much hippy batshit crazy patients that sometimes its hard to tell if theyre lying or not. My dad is a doctor and he once told me about the horrors of patients who keeps putting off taking antibiotics because they think they dont need it anymore, its hard to believe what patients say
What's interesting is, all the ingredients in prescription medications obviously came from the earth too, just not synthetically combined by humans. It's as if we've created a superior complex.
LOL what? Came from The earth medicines by big pharmaceutical? Take a look at the label they’re either synthetics or chemically derived from The naturally occurring substance. It would be like slapping a non gmo sticker on Monsanto produce are you a fucking idiot? Sorry to be so harsh
Unless that old man did nothing except for working 9 to 5 jobs and raise shithead kids. At that point, an 80 year old man is no wiser than a 14 year old highschooler.
@Blue-Eyed European Age does not necessarily equal knowledge or wisdom. you can live a boring life where you learn nothing and die at an old age knowing very little.
Andrea Potter Hmmm... I think that’s because pre-colonial sub Saharan Africans had no written language. Knowledge was passed down directly & through telling stories.
Every single time I have taken Psilocybin, I had a fresh perspective on the world the next day. Like a mental 'reset'. Shook off all the old stresses and puts things in perspective. It really does wonders.
@Jon Not cured. It helped, and I didn't know it would help. Just a fun thing to do every once in awhile. There's no dependency on it whatsoever. I do prefer sober, but with cannibis.
Lol yeah I remember eating 3 grams grounded up in a chocolate heart in Glenpool,OK We went camping out back of a friend house, being outside at night with the trees swaying and hearing cows chew thier food 100 yards away your senses are heightened like spider man and you are smiling from ear to ear. I'm guessing that's why that kid didn't take that candy bar from me when I offered it to him. (Neighbor kids seen our fire and came over) funny thing is I gave that candy bar to another friend of mine who just so happens to offer it to the same kid I did. But he took it this time. I really wAs tripping then...... "he knows I'm different 🤣)
Zyklon B still and know god Not really, he only does that with guests he's shooting the shit with. Like if he's talking to a friend like Eddie, Alex, or Joey, obviously they are going to interrupt eachother or jump in on eachother, friends do that when they talk. But whenever he talks to intelligent people explaining something, he doesn't interrupt them.
Rogan has guests on because he's interested in the answers they can give him. It's not for you. These are his guests, and he wants to ask them what he wants to ask them to settle his curiosity. If he's not interested in what they're saying, then he's not interested and wants to get to what he's interested in. There's nothing wrong with that. If you want to watch someone bloviate for half an hour with a canned speech that resolves fuck-all go watch one of the million useless TED talks. Or worse yet, TEDx.
Micheal s your right! I prefer Ashwagandha..very relaxing..big mistake was stopping abrubtly..shoulda stepped down in dosage. Went from calm and peaceful to pissed off big time for a bit
I went to high school with Paul Stamets and his brother at Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania in the early ‘70s. I never would have predicted his interest in mycology
Very subdued and nearly anonymous compared to some of the crazies. There was a group that called themselves “the Psychedelic Rangers” partially because of all the acid they dropped and weed they smoked. Paul Stamets was hardly one of those guys.
@Jon He mentions in the documentary Fantastic Fungi that it cured him of his stutter overnight after he took some and the next day his stutter was gone. . . That's just what he said 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Paul stamens is a true visionary and amazing researcher. Check out more of his lectures. His company is full of integrity. He is working to find ways that mushrooms can clean up major environmental toxic pollution such as radioactive waste and oil spills. This guy is the real deal.
The real deal. His product on the other hand - is not. Full of integrity is the furthest from the truth. Search "mycelium on grain." What he's saying about lion's mane mushroom is true, unfortunately he's not selling it.
This comment section has more amazing stories then anything I’ve ever seen and I am only about 25 comments into it. Absolutely amazing that we have found this information I hope everyone holds there head high knowing they didn’t settle for what they may have been told. Never give up stay kind believe in yourself and NATURE she will guide your wonderful journey!!
@@captainomoplata643 Gargamel created her with magic she isn't a natural Smurf but she's only one chick and she isn't permanently preggers. Have we ever seen her vagina? No for all we know shes just a genderless blue walking mushroom that identifies as female. Smurfs are mushrooms! They breed by spores that's why more Smurfs can just show up out of the woods one day for no reason. They grew in some logs!
So thankful I found this video! I felt like I was slipping into dementia with memory loss, anger and depression. I started talking a organic dual-extracted Lions Mane extract straight from The Greater Khingan Mountain Range in China and my world got flipped upside down. For the past six months lost childhood memories flood my head at random times, often leaving me with strong emotions and tearing eyes. It is such a powerful feeling. I can’t predict it, they just come and go at random times, almost like my brain is trying to sort them out. Drink some Lions Mane tea, go to bed, and wake up remembering stuff from your childhood. Amazing. I felt like I did 10 years ago and my depression is gone. Everyone needs to know about this stuff. I made sure my mushrooms were tested for heavy metals, radiation and other impurities. Bye.
Ryan Carrier They had a local shop close to my sister’s place in Cumberland on Vancouver Island but I’m pretty sure because of Covid they are doing online sales only now. They do have an online website. I did so much research on lions mane. It’s such an amazing mushroom. Your other option is to go on Amazon and try searching for RealMushrooms Lion’s Mane. There are lots of great options out there so look around and do some research. I buy the tincture version of lions mane with cane alcohol after learning that certain compounds can only be extracted with alcohol. If you are suffering with any sort of memory problems I can certainly help my friend. I have been researching memory issues and health topics for close to 15 years. This is the one I use. It’s hard to find dual extracted lions mane. harmonicarts.ca/products/lions-mane-mushroom-tincture
Mushrooms can be very high in vitamin D if they are exposed to UV light (e.g. sunlight). Commercially, people expose them to UV light to increase vitamin D. I don't know if there is a vitamin D3 or what he said, but mushrooms can be high in vitamin D so it would be legit
@@sadhu7191 when i take lions mane i specifically notice and remember forgotten memories and am more eloquent with speech, have a better verbal recall. etc.
After already being on cannibis to treat my MS. And taking niacin, B12 and other supliments etc. I saw this video and thought what do I have to loose? I bought some lion's mane supplements and holy shit! It's only been a week and I'm feeling better every day. My facial palsy is almost gone. My constant pins and needles are much less. My balance and vision have improved. Why the fuck isn't this shit funded to be studied more. I still don't know if it's just the placebo effect. But... I'll take it! Thanks!
I have vasovagal syncope which is my vagus nerve is off and it causes some very horrible symptoms. Doctors just put a band aid on it and there really is not any good treatment for it. So here goes, and I want to cure this issue I have and so im thinking these mushrooms may just do that. Im willing to find out. Thank you for sharing your personal story.
This shit isn't funded to be studied more because big pharma does not spend money in shit they can't copyright to make shitloads of money from. Nope. They aren't good with just proving that some nature's made shit works and selling it for a fair price. It has to be THEIRS. That's called greed by the way. Problem is, smaller labs or dudes studying this kind of things at universities have no access to funding, and they are so esoteric that people like us that might want to contribute don't know how to reach them. Hopefully nowadays with crowdfunding things are going to change...
My name is John,I had 9”Major “brain surgery’s and 23 Shunt revisions.My body was fighting the tubes put in my head.I even wound up going into a “COMA “for 2 and a half years. The V.A.wanted me to right a book on my life.What they didn’t know is I was taking “LIONS MANE”.It basically saved my life.I’ll never stop using it.
Lions mane is even great for the nerves in the body. I wasn’t supposed to feel anything when I damaged the nerves in my arm after surgery, but, Thank God my Physical Therapist recommenced Lions mane. Not only did I get a portion of my feeling back but my memory for school improved and had less fog in my head. Lions mane works
I want to adopt Paul Stamets to be my grandfather : D He is is such a cool, wise and humble being. And a great example for the younger generations. I can listen to him for hours.
Same 😆this made me smile so huge. He looks JUST like my grandfather whom I haven’t had for the past 20 yrs now. He was a wiseman as well and he transcended.
The Lions Mane is delicious too! Sliced 3/4” thick, brushed with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Grill over natural wood fire or charcoal, as a strange chemical reaction takes place when grilled over propane, which turns the mushroom blue. It has the flavor and texture of lobster.
I have been taking Lions Mane Mushrooms for about seven weeks and I noticed by the first week that my brain wasn't so foggy. I am convinced this stuff helps.
@@brettcoyle2399 It does if you take it consistently, when you notice a difference varies but within a month it should definitely be helping. If you decide to try it and go with Pauls company Host Defense, get the already made capsules instead of the loose powder. I felt like the capsules worked better for me vs the powder
I am a 25 year old who, a few weeks ago, was diagnosed with an acute case of transverse myelitis, which is an inflammation of the spinal cord that causes demyelination. I had complete paralysis in both of my hands, abdomen, and right leg. Though this condition reverses completely on it's own with time and physical therapy, I started taking Lion's Mane knowing of it's ability of neurogenesis. I am doing this as an experiment on myself, so this will be interesting!
@@AnEnemyAnemone1 I am doing really well! It is about 5 weeks since I started having symptoms. I am able to walk using a walker as the function in my right leg is doing a whole lot better. My left hand and leg are nearly normal with some weakness. My right hand is the most affected. However, I have been able to curl my fingers downward and grab lightweight objects. Fine motor functions take the longest to get back. It is hard to say if the Lion's Mane is having an effect or if it is just the normal healing of my body, but I would say the improvements are significant in only 5 weeks time. My neurologist says that to him, I am 70% back to normal function with the other 30% being fine motor functioning.
I bought some Lions Mane (372.6MG Fruiting Body Extracted capsules) and have been taking for 3 days. So far the effects I've had are: 1. Tired a lot earlier in the evening, I used to stay up but fell asleep around 1am which I havent for years. 2. Falling asleep a lot quicker 3. Weird ASS dreams (very detailed) Personally no effects yet on my mood or thoughts when studying or otherwise but will keep this updated. I bought mine from British supplements.
That's not entirely true. A lot of artist are depressed and they create amazing art. Same with musicians, comedians etc.. However a depressed mind is an unhealthy mind. Without a healthy mind the rest of your body will be unhealthy. Your mind is a powerful healer all on its own, so to keep it healthy with natural medicine's like lions mane and other fungi, is very important to maintain ones health.
A lot of artists struggle with depression but I agree that you aren’t creative when you are depressed. Depressed people don’t have a desire to create or even the ability to enjoy things like art that they normally would enjoy if not depressed. I speak from personal experience.
DairangerSentai7 you just suddenly get a video scene of some event in your life you totally forgot about , if it happens once youre like ok. But this happens a few times in a short time period and youre like damn ...
I've been taking lions mane for 2 weeks and I already feel like the nerve damage in my chin has started feeling better at a faster rate. I also take some niacin to help stack the effects as he recommends. Unbelievable that I never knew about this for the 15 years or so that I've dealt with this nerve pain. Thanks so much Paul!
I was thinking there’s something real peculiar about the look in this mans’ eyes, and upon further inspection I began waiting for a blink that never came
@Montelm4l mann lmaooo take a couple months off and tell me you didn't have a foggy brain for 16 years. If you don't take a break you don't have a baseline.
If medicinal mushrooms were aliens and wanted to shapeshift into a human form to push their agenda, I believe their avatar would look exactly like this guy
I found a liquid mushroom blend at Sprouts. It has lions mane in it. It also has chaga, cordyceps, velvets foot, shiitake, reishi, etc. I take it 3 times every day, I’m on the 3rd day and I feel so much better! I recommend it to everybody including family and friends
There’s so many different types of mushrooms that have so many different effects. We really gotta stop thinking they’re just drugs and learn their medical uses.
Lion's Mane may be very useful for people with MS(multiple sclerosis), as it demyelinizes the nerves in the body, particularly the spinal cord. Myelin is the covering around the nerve which transmits nerve messages. Without it a person cannot live. In most cases MS is very slowly progressing, although I had a close friend who developed a very quickly progressing case of MS. In a week she was almost totally paralyzed, except for a small amount of movement in her hands, which she used to activate a breathing machine. She passed away at the age of 22 after less than two months of the diesease
Mushrooms can be grown to forms as a replacement for cardboard. FYI : While on a river floating excursion, I noticed a weird plant thing dripping, oozing on to the ground. These fungus and everything along that riverbed got sprayed with some herbicide or fungicide and it was the greatest un-natural thing I have ever seen. another FYI, a quick search of mushroom fungicide herbicide turned up no pictures.
ArkansasGamer there are reputable supplement companies that make D3 and K2/MK7. Buy from a natural/organic grocery store as they usually carry the best lines or you can try online. I try to shop locally as much as possible. The key is to take them together. I take Mg also, just a different variation (Mg has different types and maybe the one listed above is better for neuropathy). I take a small amount of Mg with the D3 & K2 and take more Mg at night.
People with really low dopamine depression might not get the dopamine reward that normally comes with being creative, keeping them from being creative. But also not that many people are creative too... Maybe he's meaning creative in your environment, like mice problem solving etc... Lots of ways to be creative that aren't just making art. Also take Kanye West for example, when he's on antipsychotics his creativity is gone he says, the way antipsychotics work is they keep your dopamine levels really low.
Came here to note this. He's said B3 elsewhere, so just a brain fart. For people looking to do their own stacking, be sure to source "instant release B3".
I LOVE Paul Stamets and Joe Rogan for doing this interview. My humble addition is that the hypothesis of the lion's mane + psilocybin (btw: microdose seems to enhance brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) whereas macrodose decreases BDNF) + niacin stack, should be complemented with a methylgroup donor like betain. Because niacin depletes methylgroups and a lack of methylation causes fatigue, disorientation and utter grogginess. But with betain this could work TREMENDOUSLY!!!
Myelin doesn't transmit signals.... It is more of an insulator to prevent activity in one neuron from jumping into another, like the lining around an electric cable.
I nearly overdosed from injecting 4 marijuanas once, so next time I smoked, I took Lion’s mane mushroom and I’ve gone on to live a further 90 years. I’m 113.
Also....factoid. the hat he is wearing is not leather, it is Tinder Fungus mushroom. I worked for a knife company that used small pieces for a survival kit, flint and steel. We ordered them from Romania. Other people use it for fly fishing, to dry flys. It is also called Amadou, and you can find it on Ebay, maybe even the same type hat. I heard they wavered in production due to high liability, and hard to mass produce. Several people caught their hats on fire ! And suffered bad burns. Tinder fungus is, of course, EXTREMELY flammable ! Lol. People smoking (especially a pipe) can easily light the hat up, even with the tiniest drifting ember !!!
Very good stuff!! Thanks for having him on Joe! Love your show! I got into mushrooms about 6 years ago and wow it blows my mind the things we can do with them! I'm not the best mushroomer but i've tried chaga, morels, chantrels, oysters, turkey tail, hen of the woods and chicken of the woods and so on mainly mushrooms without many poisonous mimicks. I recently found out about lions mane and i hike and backpack alot well and friend and i went hiking in the ADK's of upstate NY and we hiked a mountain thats less traveled and the entire side of this mountain was loaded with lions mane i mean loaded!! It was the craziest thing because on our way up the mountain i only noticed one small patch in a downed log but as it started to get dusk and we were on our way back down they were everywhere it was almost like they were glowing! We could see patches the whole way down, we could have filled garbage cans with fresh lions mane if we wanted to it was nuts! So they must grow on a particular side of the trees or downed logs they are near and right before dark they stick out like a soar thumb it was cool!! My point is these wonderful mushrooms are everywhere if you know where to look and they are still untouched in alot of places! This mountain i will not name but i gave it the nickname mushroom mountain! Just wanted to tell that story! Thanks Joe for all you do and your guest!!
Been taking these capsules that have Lions Mane, Ashwagandha and Red Reishi for a few months now. I was told by a group of beings that by taking this, along with Maca, I would grow new Neurons which would essentially help them in their work on the Astral Plane.
I love lion's mane.. you don't have to take it for long before noticing the affects. Most people have had the experience of trying to convey and thought and you can't get access to a word. "it's on the tip of my tongue" you might say. After taking Lion's mane, I started to notice that I was able to communicate more fluently and didn't lose my place or forget terms in a conversation.
After knee surgery I was on Opioids for 30 days. To say the least it left me with a short memory span and the same effects that you mention. Would you mind sharing the brand of Lions Mane you take and where you purchased it?
@@carolync9408 Sorry, just now seeing this. I bought this for best value. 90 caps 1500 mg. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BD3DHZG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Lion's Mane mushrooms grow all over northern California and are fairly tasty. I have picked them for years and they are easy to identify. Look up in oak trees that have places where dead branches have broken off. Make sure you cook the thin slices enough to avoid the bitterness.
Huh, I've never "took" lions mane but have eaten them throughout the summer for several years. It grows wild here in upstate NY, 3 different types. They're really good sauted in butter. I'm probably cooking the real good stuff outta them like that but the taste and texture is great. Not to mention fun to hunt. Not to often is something that pure white in the woods.
@@mr.pantalones1261 Doing the trip to the store tomorrow with my daughter. Had to go out of town to a specialist today. I'll write a note to myself to post back!
In the latest Star Trek Discovery - Season 1, there's a mycelium network that allows for hyper-jumping through space, and the guy that ends up harnessing the network to make such 'jumps' is called Stamets! I think that maybe this guy was the inspiration for that aspect of the series.
Been using LM for over 3nths, both dried powder and tincture; I haven't observed ANY noticeable difference in cognition. The powder is very flavorful on my morning beverage though.
I literally just bought some from the link. I read the reviews on Amazon from the link and people are saying this stuff is amazing. There were multiple people saying they felt like children again wanting to go dance and are very happy and have energy all day. That's all I needed to see. Bout to start loving life again boiiii!
Michael Levels it’s good. Depression is completely gone, anxiety is mostly gone. Started working in like 3 days l. After a week I felt like a whole different person, but in a really good way. I highly recommend you get you some man. I think it’s like 20 or 30 dollars.
I worked at GNC as a kid. Every month a man would come in and buy every single bottle of niacin we had. I never found out why. This is the second time in my life coming across niacin.
I take Lion's Mane pills every day and my sense of memory is still poor but I notice I can remember things better than before. That subtle difference has had a big impact on my life.
I want anyone that is interested in lions mane or already taking it to please read this: yes, lions mane can be great. I personally take it myself BUT you NEED to be careful. Most people don’t know this, including Staments I’m sure, but if you’re going through traumatic physical or mental stress like drug withdrawal, a serious breakup, intense physical pain, a death, etc that it can cause “Central Sensitization” and it can be PERMANENT. I am not a doctor and I understand many people don’t trust doctors but I spoke with a well respected neurologist and this is way over simplified but he explained that lions mane can “rewire” your brain in a negative manner. A big reason people take lions mane is to recover from these stressors. Please do your research. Also, Staments is talking about B3/Niacin (although he originally called it D3 like a form of Vitamin D). There can be some dangers in messing with your methylation cycle when using this supplement. Bottom line, do your research!
Holy shit, I’ve been drinking this coffee drink mix with MCT oil and lions mane mushrooms, and I’m also currently going through one of the hardest most emotionally taxing experiences of my life. I’m so fucking grateful I read your comment
Chelsea Frattura if you’re going through a serious trauma or depression you should focus on sleep and self care in general. Also food, you don’t have to restrict yourself heavily but get some nutritious food and for supplements get some magnesium and CBD for good sleep
@@zekielrodriguez913 thank you I appreciate all the guidance. I should definitely be doing more of all those things. Haven't tried CBD yet but I pretty much smoke every day so I'm definitely KO'd most nights lmao
Chelsea Frattura I don’t know if I would recommend quitting at the same time as going through a funk that you’re in, but at one point if you cut smoking down to moderation or quit entirely it’ll help prevent some anxiety or depression in the future. Believe me, I’ve been there before. When I stopped smoking everyday it helped me realize that I don’t need to smoke to calm my anxiety or deal with stress
This is one that I can attest to. I suffer from Crohns and sever IBS which leaves me extremely drained and full of brain fog. The difference when taking Lions mane regularly is definite. I was skeptical ( ie I don’t at all believe the effects to be placebo ) but after experiencing it and then going off it for a couple weeks I haven’t allowed myself to go without it since. Tip: make sure it’s farmed in the America’s ( less chance of contaminants under more sticky defined protocols). Cheers
Vagum “Host Defence” off Amazon is usually my avenue. It’s priced well too. Also “New Roots” is a good brand ( I’ve tried a few other ones that didn’t seem to exhibit the same potency. Hope this helps . Cheers 🍻
I have lived here my entire life (44 ) and am just now discovering that they are EVERYWHERE up here?????! I am KICKING myself for not having figured this out sooner!!! What a dope!!! I STILL believed, until VERY recently, they were only in cow fields known only by the pickers themselves 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ I COULD HAVE BEEN PICKING THEM IN MY YARD FOR TEN YEARS!!! I feel sick to my stomach....all that time...wasted. I guess it just had to be the right time. Ugh. Ten years of depression, wondering where is an old lady like me going to ever find mushrooms again, I'm over 40, nobody is going to sell me mushrooms. They are growing in my yard. I can't even begin to express how regretful I feel for not researching this sooner!!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ But, now I know. Shits about to get real now!!! Woohoo!!! *Edit: ok, I've seen a gazillion mushrooms around here, was always too afraid to touch them and figured most of them were poisonous because, there's no effing way psychedelic shrooms were just randomly popping up everywhere I look. That would just be too easy. Son of a bitch, they are.
@@aflockofbeagles8219 Be absolutely sure of the mushrooms you ingest!!! Many, many are poisonous! I recommend you find an excellent book with photographs to start you out. You'll find there are many types of mushrooms that look alike. The book I bought first was a field book guide called "North American Mushrooms" by Dr. Orson K. Miller Jr. and Hope H. Miller. It's a good beginners guide. By the way, there are many good mushrooms that grow in cow pies as well! If in doubt, throw it out!
@@threellamas16 oh yeah! I'm not eating ANYTHING until I have enough knowledge and experience to be 1000% sure of what I'm doing. I probably won't even try anything until next fall when I have at least a year of dedicated research into my endeavor. Fuck that, I'm cool with getting poisoned or death. Thank you so much for the book suggestion! I will absolutely get a field guide asap. Seems like I really missed the window for good hunting this year anyway 😒 oops.
I made lion's mane po' boys for dinner yesterday and it was delicious. Turns out, per TH-cam, it's easy as hell to grow your own mushrooms in buckets. Guess what I'm doing next? 😁
@@ginfonte3386 Lions mane mushrooms aren't psilocybin. But yes if you are just talking about the nutrients in the lions mane I'm sure it decreases a little upon cooking just like everything else. Cooking and freezing has a small effect but not much.
He said vitamin D-3 is niacin, and is wrong. Niacin is vitamin B-3! Get the instant release, and don't take it too constantly, as your liver needs time without having to process niacin in order to stay healthy. I love niacin and highly recommend it.

After surgery you can have nerve paralysis (part of the face is droopy/cant move) so I thought maybe this will help. After her 3 month check up, the doctor said she was healing/recovering faster than any of the patient that had that particular tumor removed (acoustic neuroma). I told them about Lions mane on the first month visit and they brushed it off because they hadn't heard anything about it, but she kept taking it, I think it actually helped her nerves recover faster than normal. There isn't really any way to prove it other than the doctor saying the recover is happening "faster than normal". Maybe someone will see this comment and it will help.
Doctors are trained by the high PHARMACY meds. To prescribe man made meds that have side effects. Shrooms are too natural for them

But lion’s mane doesnt even remotely have psilocybin 😳
@Jon Not cured. It helped, and I didn't know it would help. Just a fun thing to do every once in awhile. There's no dependency on it whatsoever. I do prefer sober, but with cannibis.
@Jon Sugar and Caffeine are technically psychoactive drugs too. Hard to be completely "sober" in this world bro.
Lol yeah I remember eating 3 grams grounded up in a chocolate heart in Glenpool,OK We went camping out back of a friend house, being outside at night with the trees swaying and hearing cows chew thier food 100 yards away your senses are heightened like spider man and you are smiling from ear to ear. I'm guessing that's why that kid didn't take that candy bar from me when I offered it to him. (Neighbor kids seen our fire and came over) funny thing is I gave that candy bar to another friend of mine who just so happens to offer it to the same kid I did. But he took it this time. I really wAs tripping then...... "he knows I'm different 🤣)
I ate 1/2 of a lions mane mushroom and now I no longer need a computer to visit the internet.

Joe Rogans a great host, doesnt interrupt and asks appropriate questions
I really appreciate him for that.
I agree. Awesome host
Reaper139139 i wish my cars odometer could have demyelination on them to take some miles off!! Lmao
"Have you seen the video of that moose getting accidentally hit by a truck?"
He literally is the worst about interrupting. He just didn't have anything to add this time.
congrats to Rogan for NOT constantly interrupting his guest like every other interviewer just to show who's in charge.
Granted he does do that with certain guests
You mean like he usually does?
I think Rogan was a utilized substance for more mycelium growth of Pauls knowledge.
Zyklon B still and know god Not really, he only does that with guests he's shooting the shit with. Like if he's talking to a friend like Eddie, Alex, or Joey, obviously they are going to interrupt eachother or jump in on eachother, friends do that when they talk.
But whenever he talks to intelligent people explaining something, he doesn't interrupt them.
Rogan has guests on because he's interested in the answers they can give him. It's not for you. These are his guests, and he wants to ask them what he wants to ask them to settle his curiosity. If he's not interested in what they're saying, then he's not interested and wants to get to what he's interested in. There's nothing wrong with that. If you want to watch someone bloviate for half an hour with a canned speech that resolves fuck-all go watch one of the million useless TED talks. Or worse yet, TEDx.

Reishi may have some side effects though.
I went to high school with Paul Stamets and his brother at Mercersburg Academy in Pennsylvania in the early ‘70s. I never would have predicted his interest in mycology
Wow. What was he like back in the day?
Very subdued and nearly anonymous compared to some of the crazies. There was a group that called themselves “the Psychedelic Rangers” partially because of all the acid they dropped and weed they smoked. Paul Stamets was hardly one of those guys.
Probably was subued because he suffered from stuttering. He was able to overcome this with a psychedelic experience.
He would probably be surprised you know the word mycology.
@Jon He mentions in the documentary Fantastic Fungi that it cured him of his stutter overnight after he took some and the next day his stutter was gone. . . That's just what he said 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
He looks like robin Williams in jumanji

So thankful I found this video! I felt like I was slipping into dementia with memory loss, anger and depression. I started talking a organic dual-extracted Lions Mane extract straight from The Greater Khingan Mountain Range in China and my world got flipped upside down. For the past six months lost childhood memories flood my head at random times, often leaving me with strong emotions and tearing eyes. It is such a powerful feeling. I can’t predict it, they just come and go at random times, almost like my brain is trying to sort them out. Drink some Lions Mane tea, go to bed, and wake up remembering stuff from your childhood. Amazing. I felt like I did 10 years ago and my depression is gone. Everyone needs to know about this stuff. I made sure my mushrooms were tested for heavy metals, radiation and other impurities. Bye.
Where does someone get this stuff?
Ryan Carrier I bought mine from a local place here in Canada. Harmonic Arts was the name of the company.
Great I'm in Canada too! Do you order online? I'm in Saskatchewan.
Ryan Carrier They had a local shop close to my sister’s place in Cumberland on Vancouver Island but I’m pretty sure because of Covid they are doing online sales only now. They do have an online website. I did so much research on lions mane. It’s such an amazing mushroom. Your other option is to go on Amazon and try searching for RealMushrooms Lion’s Mane. There are lots of great options out there so look around and do some research. I buy the tincture version of lions mane with cane alcohol after learning that certain compounds can only be extracted with alcohol. If you are suffering with any sort of memory problems I can certainly help my friend. I have been researching memory issues and health topics for close to 15 years.
This is the one I use. It’s hard to find dual extracted lions mane.

Can lion's mane be grown from spawn?
FYI, he meant B3 (Niacin). Not D3. Vitamin D is what helps you absorb and retain calcium.
He must have forgot to take his lion's mane before the show.
That's what I heard as well. I posted before reading your comment.
Mushrooms can be very high in vitamin D if they are exposed to UV light (e.g. sunlight). Commercially, people expose them to UV light to increase vitamin D.
I don't know if there is a vitamin D3 or what he said, but mushrooms can be high in vitamin D so it would be legit
Oh, he did say "D3" and also "niacin" which is obviously B3
I heard B3, but I'm watching on my phone with the volume low, so maybe I misheard...

I have vasovagal syncope which is my vagus nerve is off and it causes some very horrible symptoms. Doctors just put a band aid on it and there really is not any good treatment for it. So here goes, and I want to cure this issue I have and so im thinking these mushrooms may just do that. Im willing to find out. Thank you for sharing your personal story.
This shit isn't funded to be studied more because big pharma does not spend money in shit they can't copyright to make shitloads of money from. Nope. They aren't good with just proving that some nature's made shit works and selling it for a fair price. It has to be THEIRS. That's called greed by the way.
Problem is, smaller labs or dudes studying this kind of things at universities have no access to funding, and they are so esoteric that people like us that might want to contribute don't know how to reach them. Hopefully nowadays with crowdfunding things are going to change...

The Lions Mane is delicious too! Sliced 3/4” thick, brushed with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Grill over natural wood fire or charcoal, as a strange chemical reaction takes place when grilled over propane, which turns the mushroom blue. It has the flavor and texture of lobster.
Yea it's not like Reishi which is also beneficial but tastes AWFUL!

I am a 25 year old who, a few weeks ago, was diagnosed with an acute case of transverse myelitis, which is an inflammation of the spinal cord that causes demyelination. I had complete paralysis in both of my hands, abdomen, and right leg. Though this condition reverses completely on it's own with time and physical therapy, I started taking Lion's Mane knowing of it's ability of neurogenesis. I am doing this as an experiment on myself, so this will be interesting!
Jessica Mazeika now is this going for you so far? I know it might be too early to say much but I’m interested to find out how this works for you.
@@AnEnemyAnemone1 I am doing really well! It is about 5 weeks since I started having symptoms. I am able to walk using a walker as the function in my right leg is doing a whole lot better. My left hand and leg are nearly normal with some weakness. My right hand is the most affected. However, I have been able to curl my fingers downward and grab lightweight objects. Fine motor functions take the longest to get back. It is hard to say if the Lion's Mane is having an effect or if it is just the normal healing of my body, but I would say the improvements are significant in only 5 weeks time. My neurologist says that to him, I am 70% back to normal function with the other 30% being fine motor functioning.

1. Tired a lot earlier in the evening, I used to stay up but fell asleep around 1am which I havent for years.
2. Falling asleep a lot quicker
3. Weird ASS dreams (very detailed)

Thats very true. When youre depressed youre not creative.
yoga bear 56 I second that emotion 👍
I third that motion.
Lol.... "emotion"
That's not entirely true. A lot of artist are depressed and they create amazing art. Same with musicians, comedians etc.. However a depressed mind is an unhealthy mind. Without a healthy mind the rest of your body will be unhealthy. Your mind is a powerful healer all on its own, so to keep it healthy with natural medicine's like lions mane and other fungi, is very important to maintain ones health.
A lot of artists struggle with depression but I agree that you aren’t creative when you are depressed. Depressed people don’t have a desire to create or even the ability to enjoy things like art that they normally would enjoy if not depressed. I speak from personal experience.

There’s so many different types of mushrooms that have so many different effects. We really gotta stop thinking they’re just drugs and learn their medical uses.
Lion's Mane may be very useful for people with MS(multiple sclerosis), as it demyelinizes the nerves in the body, particularly the spinal cord. Myelin is the covering around the nerve which transmits nerve messages. Without it a person cannot live. In most cases MS is very slowly progressing, although I had a close friend who developed a very quickly progressing case of MS. In a week she was almost totally paralyzed, except for a small amount of movement in her hands, which she used to activate a breathing machine. She passed away at the age of 22 after less than two months of the diesease
Mushrooms can be grown to forms as a replacement for cardboard. FYI : While on a river floating excursion, I noticed a weird plant thing dripping, oozing on to the ground.

I have cleared neuropathy with D3, K2-mk7, and magnesium L-threonate. Calcium is a major synapse blocker and K2-Mk7 absorbs it.
Could you please tell me what products/supplements you buy for this? Trying to treat illness with alternative medicine. Than you.
ArkansasGamer there are reputable supplement companies that make D3 and K2/MK7. Buy from a natural/organic grocery store as they usually carry the best lines or you can try online. I try to shop locally as much as possible. The key is to take them together. I take Mg also, just a different variation (Mg has different types and maybe the one listed above is better for neuropathy). I take a small amount of Mg with the D3 & K2 and take more Mg at night.

People with really low dopamine depression might not get the dopamine reward that normally comes with being creative, keeping them from being creative. But also not that many people are creative too... Maybe he's meaning creative in your environment, like mice problem solving etc... Lots of ways to be creative that aren't just making art. Also take Kanye West for example, when he's on antipsychotics his creativity is gone he says, the way antipsychotics work is they keep your dopamine levels really low.

The lions main is morphing him into a retard he said d3!
I LOVE Paul Stamets and Joe Rogan for doing this interview. My humble addition is that the hypothesis of the lion's mane + psilocybin (btw: microdose seems to enhance brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) whereas macrodose decreases BDNF) + niacin stack, should be complemented with a methylgroup donor like betain. Because niacin depletes methylgroups and a lack of methylation causes fatigue, disorientation and utter grogginess. But with betain this could work TREMENDOUSLY!!!
Excellent insights. TMG?

Very good stuff!! Thanks for having him on Joe! Love your show! I got into mushrooms about 6 years ago and wow it blows my mind the things we can do with them! I'm not the best mushroomer but i've tried chaga, morels, chantrels, oysters, turkey tail, hen of the woods and chicken of the woods and so on mainly mushrooms without many poisonous mimicks. I recently found out about lions mane and i hike and backpack alot well and friend and i went hiking in the ADK's of upstate NY and we hiked a mountain thats less traveled and the entire side of this mountain was loaded with lions mane i mean loaded!! It was the craziest thing because on our way up the mountain i only noticed one small patch in a downed log but as it started to get dusk and we were on our way back down they were everywhere it was almost like they were glowing! We could see patches the whole way down, we could have filled garbage cans with fresh lions mane if we wanted to it was nuts! So they must grow on a particular side of the trees or downed logs they are near and right before dark they stick out like a soar thumb it was cool!! My point is these wonderful mushrooms are everywhere if you know where to look and they are still untouched in alot of places! This mountain i will not name but i gave it the nickname mushroom mountain! Just wanted to tell that story! Thanks Joe for all you do and your guest!!

I love lion's mane.. you don't have to take it for long before noticing the affects. Most people have had the experience of trying to convey and thought and you can't get access to a word. "it's on the tip of my tongue" you might say. After taking Lion's mane, I started to notice that I was able to communicate more fluently and didn't lose my place or forget terms in a conversation.

After taking lions Mane for 3 months i actually grew a lion's mane from the back of my neck
My dog is on it and he roared one day ha ha!
My grandpa ate it. Hes dead now. No enlightenment in life
Lion's Mane mushrooms grow all over northern California and are fairly tasty. I have picked them for years and they are easy to identify. Look up in oak trees that have places where dead branches have broken off. Make sure you cook the thin slices enough to avoid the bitterness.
Huh, I've never "took" lions mane but have eaten them throughout the summer for several years. It grows wild here in upstate NY, 3 different types. They're really good sauted in butter. I'm probably cooking the real good stuff outta them like that but the taste and texture is great. Not to mention fun to hunt. Not to often is something that pure white in the woods.
Mushrooms for Algernon. I'm starting the extract tomorrow. I am on the Autism spectrum and have had two brain injuries, so it can't hurt.
How did it go?
@@mr.pantalones1261 Doing the trip to the store tomorrow with my daughter. Had to go out of town to a specialist today. I'll write a note to myself to post back!
@@tammystratford7079 ok thank you! I hope it something that works for you!
any updates?
How are you feeling?
When you realise his beard is an upside down peace symbol
In the latest Star Trek Discovery - Season 1, there's a mycelium network that allows for hyper-jumping through space, and the guy that ends up harnessing the network to make such 'jumps' is called Stamets! I think that maybe this guy was the inspiration for that aspect of the series.
Confirmed. It was a nod to this Paul Stamets.
Haha! Yes, I love that show! I had noticed the name in the show too, thought it was awesomely appropriate!
He was.
I don't know if I agree with him saying when you're depressed you're not creative there's tons of art out there created by people who were very sad
You know joes mind is completely blown when hes completely silent
Just bought all kinds of shrooms, LOL!. I've been fooled before, but this guy strikes me as genuine and incredibly passionate about his field. I'm in!
@@zachwho1 oh yeah, he died
See more vids of him in yt. He's an authority on mushrooms
This stuff sound’s ideal for MS sufferers!!
Been using LM for over 3nths, both dried powder and tincture; I haven't observed ANY noticeable difference in cognition. The powder is very flavorful on my morning beverage though.
I literally just bought some from the link. I read the reviews on Amazon from the link and people are saying this stuff is amazing. There were multiple people saying they felt like children again wanting to go dance and are very happy and have energy all day. That's all I needed to see. Bout to start loving life again boiiii!
If anyone wants to know how it is let me know
Michael Levels it’s good. Depression is completely gone, anxiety is mostly gone. Started working in like 3 days l. After a week I felt like a whole different person, but in a really good way. I highly recommend you get you some man. I think it’s like 20 or 30 dollars.
Michael Levels the kind I got is in the link and brings you to amazon. Bro just read the reviews. That’s what sold me.
Beware the placebo effect...
mapezaid man this stuff worked great while I was buying it. It’s just expensive to keep up. It helped me get off opiates with little withdrawals.
Somebody should forcefeed Biden a couple bushels of those shrooms!
Honestly at this point i think hes gonna need something stronger!
I think you’re onto something here!
Poor kids eat mushrooms just as much as white kids
JB is actually 105 years young 😀
Per day
Often been asked " what's your fave drug?" A few mushrooms and a couple of beers. Feels good, man.
I tried his brand of lions mane before I knew it was him! Glad I did
The hat is an actual mushroom like leather.
no it's literally a full mushroom, they talk about it at the beginning of the full podcast.
Its made out of his moms ass
I worked at GNC as a kid. Every month a man would come in and buy every single bottle of niacin we had. I never found out why. This is the second time in my life coming across niacin.
I think you should start using Niacin WITH flush
I take Lion's Mane pills every day and my sense of memory is still poor but I notice I can remember things better than before. That subtle difference has had a big impact on my life.
Thanks. Pracsting mindfull breathing improves memoy(being aware that you are breathing)
dude looks like he lives under a giant mushroom cap
His cap is made from a mushroom.
I want anyone that is interested in lions mane or already taking it to please read this: yes, lions mane can be great. I personally take it myself BUT you NEED to be careful. Most people don’t know this, including Staments I’m sure, but if you’re going through traumatic physical or mental stress like drug withdrawal, a serious breakup, intense physical pain, a death, etc that it can cause “Central Sensitization” and it can be PERMANENT. I am not a doctor and I understand many people don’t trust doctors but I spoke with a well respected neurologist and this is way over simplified but he explained that lions mane can “rewire” your brain in a negative manner. A big reason people take lions mane is to recover from these stressors. Please do your research.
Also, Staments is talking about B3/Niacin (although he originally called it D3 like a form of Vitamin D). There can be some dangers in messing with your methylation cycle when using this supplement. Bottom line, do your research!
Holy shit, I’ve been drinking this coffee drink mix with MCT oil and lions mane mushrooms, and I’m also currently going through one of the hardest most emotionally taxing experiences of my life. I’m so fucking grateful I read your comment
Chelsea Frattura if you’re going through a serious trauma or depression you should focus on sleep and self care in general. Also food, you don’t have to restrict yourself heavily but get some nutritious food and for supplements get some magnesium and CBD for good sleep
@@zekielrodriguez913 thank you I appreciate all the guidance. I should definitely be doing more of all those things. Haven't tried CBD yet but I pretty much smoke every day so I'm definitely KO'd most nights lmao
Chelsea Frattura I don’t know if I would recommend quitting at the same time as going through a funk that you’re in, but at one point if you cut smoking down to moderation or quit entirely it’ll help prevent some anxiety or depression in the future. Believe me, I’ve been there before. When I stopped smoking everyday it helped me realize that I don’t need to smoke to calm my anxiety or deal with stress
Chelsea Frattura but you can think about that later of course, like I said focus on sleep and know that your feelings are temporary :)
You know you're a boss when Star Trek features you as a character! Mycelium king!
This was an amazing interview
This is one that I can attest to. I suffer from Crohns and sever IBS which leaves me extremely drained and full of brain fog. The difference when taking Lions mane regularly is definite.
I was skeptical ( ie I don’t at all believe the effects to be placebo ) but after experiencing it and then going off it for a couple weeks I haven’t allowed myself to go without it since. Tip: make sure it’s farmed in the America’s ( less chance of contaminants under more sticky defined protocols). Cheers
Devan Traynor where do you buy yours? Thinking of getting it for my grandpa with Parkinson's and early dementia.
Vagum “Host Defence” off Amazon is usually my avenue. It’s priced well too.
Also “New Roots” is a good brand ( I’ve tried a few other ones that didn’t seem to exhibit the same potency. Hope this helps . Cheers 🍻
Devan Traynor thanks! 🤗❤️
Vagum You’re very welcome.Good luck 👍👍
Living in the Pacific Northwest, we have mushrooms for nearly every medical situation!
I have lived here my entire life (44 ) and am just now discovering that they are EVERYWHERE up here?????! I am KICKING myself for not having figured this out sooner!!! What a dope!!! I STILL believed, until VERY recently, they were only in cow fields known only by the pickers themselves 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ I COULD HAVE BEEN PICKING THEM IN MY YARD FOR TEN YEARS!!! I feel sick to my stomach....all that time...wasted. I guess it just had to be the right time. Ugh. Ten years of depression, wondering where is an old lady like me going to ever find mushrooms again, I'm over 40, nobody is going to sell me mushrooms.
They are growing in my yard. I can't even begin to express how regretful I feel for not researching this sooner!!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
But, now I know. Shits about to get real now!!! Woohoo!!!
*Edit: ok, I've seen a gazillion mushrooms around here, was always too afraid to touch them and figured most of them were poisonous because, there's no effing way psychedelic shrooms were just randomly popping up everywhere I look. That would just be too easy. Son of a bitch, they are.
@@aflockofbeagles8219 Be absolutely sure of the mushrooms you ingest!!! Many, many are poisonous! I recommend you find an excellent book with photographs to start you out. You'll find there are many types of mushrooms that look alike. The book I bought first was a field book guide called "North American Mushrooms" by Dr. Orson K. Miller Jr. and Hope H. Miller. It's a good beginners guide. By the way, there are many good mushrooms that grow in cow pies as well! If in doubt, throw it out!
@@threellamas16 oh yeah! I'm not eating ANYTHING until I have enough knowledge and experience to be 1000% sure of what I'm doing. I probably won't even try anything until next fall when I have at least a year of dedicated research into my endeavor. Fuck that, I'm cool with getting poisoned or death.
Thank you so much for the book suggestion! I will absolutely get a field guide asap. Seems like I really missed the window for good hunting this year anyway 😒 oops.
Unless you cut down all your old growth forests.
I made lion's mane po' boys for dinner yesterday and it was delicious. Turns out, per TH-cam, it's easy as hell to grow your own mushrooms in buckets. Guess what I'm doing next? 😁
Don't forget you can inoculate logs
@@sebastianworthington9471 Where I live now, it's actually much easier to get buckets than logs! But thank you! I will keep that in mind!
Do these mushrooms still work if they're cooked? Does heat destroy their potency? Has the active ingredient(s) been identified?
@@ginfonte3386 Lions mane mushrooms aren't psilocybin. But yes if you are just talking about the nutrients in the lions mane I'm sure it decreases a little upon cooking just like everything else. Cooking and freezing has a small effect but not much.
They've got Lions Mane powder at Whole Foods. Don't know about any other place.
He said vitamin D-3 is niacin, and is wrong.
Niacin is vitamin B-3!
Get the instant release, and don't take it too constantly, as your liver needs time without having to process niacin in order to stay healthy.
I love niacin and highly recommend it.
Which type of niacin? Flush or none flush?
dexter lake flush
Thank god we have people like this
Was so glad when I found lions mane out mushroom hunting
