Mario made it clear that shrooms can level you up.
Yet he can't remember that he's being played into single handedly fixing kingdoms for nothing tho.

My wife has Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/ME. I got her started on lions mane mushroom supplements, and it has made a significant difference in... Everything. She's really started to come back to herself, including creative activities.
YES!!! I have CFS/ME too and brain damage, it has helped IMMENSELY!
Can you recommend the brand she is taking if it’s a supplement or are you buying the mushrooms?
That's great news
But
Don't get caught up in causality bias. It wasn't necessarily the supplement that did all the job. It may have played a part, and that's good to understand.
This is happening for me too! I'm just hoping it's long term
@@itsmyright2229 It may not be but it can also be a domino effect where the lions mane gives the boost needed to start working towards a healthier life
Mushrooms actually did wonders in my life. I was diagnosed with ADHD since my teenage. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. This is something that really need to be use globally to help people with related health challenges.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Ive done shrooms last month in my house. It taught me how severely traumatized I was from alcohol. I healed from many mental traumas from my past and was able to forgive, let go. Shrooms to me is a remedy not a vice. I even felt more refreshed the morning after. So no hangovers. No depression mood for days. No anxiety.I now have a more calm mind
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
When my son was 8, he had a bad accident that was pretty traumatic. Right after the accident he developed a stutter which get worse very quickly and he also developed involuntary muscle spasms/tics with the stutter. We took him to a speech therapist to get him treated. After a few seasons with the therapist, by complete chance the accident my son was involved in come up in conversation. The therapist then said that this isn't a speech issue, it's PTSD and speech therapy won't help.
I heard about lions mane before and the affect on the brain it can have so i ordered 30 lions mane tablets. One month later my son had no stutter and no tics anymore. I was completely shocked and i was the one who bought them in the chance they'd work, i just didn't think they'd do so much so fast.
This mushroom is very special and can help a lot of people.
My grandmother also had a major accident and a severe brain injury. I just ordered these tablets and I really wish some help could be obtained. I wish she dies peacefully in consciousness than to just pass away without any of it.
My head was crushed in industrial accident and I lost half of my brain. I took lions mane for 2 months and now I am cured.
How much mg did you take?
@@anetapater3855 I'm not sure on the mg but the brand was Host Defense, which is Paul Stamets company
They’ve also done studies with Lions Mane Mushrooms and Multiple Sclerosis. It’s really exciting for those of us with MS.
Links?
GC, never heard of the MS connection. I do take Lions Mane twice daily and it is very helpful in improving short term memory... and I do have MS as well though I haven't had a flare up in quite some time, perhaps Lions Mane is the reason.
Antioxidants like polyphenols and flavanols from berries, red onions, red grapes, beets, herbs, spices and cocoa powder can also help you
Omega 3's like fatty fish and algae oil can also help.
@@PatheticHero How expensive are your supplements?
@@celticlass8573 Thanks for info. Though the person I replied to wasnt trying to sell.
I will also add that lions mane mushrooms are absolutely delicious and super easy to cultivate even if you’ve never grown mushrooms before. I’ve been growing them in my basement with great success.
Ooooo cool!
On purpose or? I've seen mushroom growing kits.
may i ask what is your substrate and where do you get it? i'm having trouble sourcing some for lion's mane
I will have to look into growing lions mane fungus. My brain needs all the help it can get.
please how? can i have some tips? i love lions mane and i used to take capsules but their just so expensive :(
I suffer from severe TBI. I started taking lionsmane mushroom extract about 4 years ago and my life has changed incredibly!!!! I felt like was living with a fog over my brain and one day ot was gone!!! I started going to college, currently working on my Bachelors. Even before my TBI I never though college was a possibility, but the mushrooms literally helped my brain rewire the synopsis that were broken. Mushrooms are magical!!!!!
That was a great experience Lions mane mushrooms 🍄 are the best

I can verify Lion's mane did in fact help me. I was having a lot of trouble remembering things and this isn’t a problem I’ve always had. I noticed getting more sleep and trying to mitigate stress didn’t help.
I read about Lion's mane and tried it. It didn’t take long, I started noticing a difference. Much less brain fog and much easier to remember things. My family noticed and said I stopped repeating myself; so I know it isn’t just wishful thinking on my part. I wouldn’t call this the limitless pill or anything like that, more like restoring the baseline you had already but lost.
@@GhostSal Probably spams that already got removed.
Glad to hear the fungus helped you.

How long has it been helping?
@@SlipperyBannana About 6 months.
Do you mind if I ask if you take the recommended dose on the bottle or do you up the amount? I'm trying to decide if they are helping me including Lion's Mane. I think I feel a very subtle difference on some things.. but I wonder if the people who are REALLY noticing a difference are taking more..
So glad that shrooms are finally getting the medical recognition they deserve.
Lion's mane mushroom, to be specific.
Lion's Mane are mushrooms but they're not shrooms. They're available otc as a supplement.

Its not only brain-healing. My friend was able to heal a nerve pain in her arm with a few weeks of Lions Mane supplementation
I found relief from a herniated disc with lion's Mane mushroom
That's so encouraging, I have neuropathic pain in my legs and feet from insulin resistance, so I hope it works for me too.
@@lilascharmante2712Hi. Just saw your comment. Any update on this? How's it working for you now? My mother is about to start taking lion's mane for same reason. Hopefully this would work. Thank you in advance
Wow
I think I did too. The nerve pain may have been caused by a cat bite. The nerve goes numb where he bites it but then the feeling comes back.
World renowned mycologist Paul Stamets has been harping on this for well over a decade. I've even had a literal neurologist look at me like I was crazy when I mentioned hericenones and erinacines for nerve health. It's refreshing to see scientists in the west are finally taking their effects seriously.
all trained doctors look at you like your crazy. big oil purchased the medical field if its not oil based pills it doesnt work. plant medecine is illegal and looked down on
one of my biggest frustrations with western science is that when they encounter non western health claims, theyre immediately dismissive, which is incredibly unscientific. what should be done is to try to prove and disprove the claim, that way if it ends up being true, we didnt any spend time ignoring something that could be incredibly valuable to us
To be fair: Stamets is a bit of a snakesoil salesman, especially regarding the controversy surrounding the supplements he sells himself :( was quite disappointed to learn about all this because I really thought he‘s a super cool dude.

Best of luck in your studies! It sounds like a fascinating field, and from what little I know of it, it probably is.
Yes i m doing business of mushroom and Masters in Plant Breeding and Genetics...but difficulty is that people only eat Button mushroom..
@@ayushdiwakar2515 I love/buy/eat lots of different kinds of mushrooms including (but not limited to) Straw mushrooms, Enoki, Shiitake, reishi, oyster, lion's mane, King, boletes, morels. cremini, portabellas, corals, puffballs, straw mushrooms and several others. I'm surprised that you are finding that people are only eating buttons and wonder if they know what to do with the other kinds. I guess a lot of people just stick with what they're familiar with. Have you tried selling to Asian grocers? Various Asian cuisines use mushrooms much more than the typical American fare, and they use a greater variety than American cuisine too. Also, you'll tend to find more of a market for multiple varieties of mushrooms in vegen cuisines than other types too. Cater to those markets too, and I bet you'll find a niche.
Lara. . .somewhere besides within me there is another teacher doing a fist pump and exclaiming ‘YES!’ Under their breath for any student they have taught anywhere who shows the same enthusiasm for learning new things that you do! Finding new ways to explain the world is fun and always has been.
I have been getting into mycology recently so this video is perfect. Lion's mane is common in california and hard to mistake with poisonous species.
From what I understand even the look a like species are edible and tasty too!
@@Wingedshadowwolf yep
@@brentoncarter4275 Which community? Also, Hericium Erinaceus is the lions mane, Hericium americanum is the bear's head and Hericium coralloides is coral tooth. They are all different mushrooms that look very similar, how is that not a lookalike?

@@MacDodle How do they not get caught? Having been a dealer myself, it boggles my mind.
They taste incredible. I used to work at a high end grocery store, and it was my job to market new foods. We had some of these come in, and I sliced them and fried them in olive oil with some salt. I took them around for people to try, and people could not believe it wasn't meat. They literally taste like pork tenderloin. They even have striations that look like muscle fiber. I'd love to see these become a mainstream market mushroom. They're very easy to cultivate.
I think if they become a mainstream mushroom, it won’t be natural anymore. They’ll try to create in abundance so unnecessary ingredients will be added
Wow I can’t believe I haven’t had a vendor try to sell me some. We had some crazy mushroom guys always coming in with some bizarre mushrooms, we only ever bought the oysters and portabellas.
Even the powder is yummy. If you like cream of mushroom soup you’ll like the powder.
Big Pharma wouldn’t like that😂
@@nuclearcatbaby1131I’m going to try this in broth after my fasts! Thanks
I should add that the Lion's mane mushrooms are very yummy too! In the Chinese vegetarian diet, we use this mushroom to replace meat because it tastes so meaty! I recommend everyone to give it a try ☺️
Mushrooms arent vegetables, in fact they are closer to animals. Meaty in deed..
@@leandroflaherty yea i'm a huge fan of the Archean diet too man
It textures so meaty too! It's very easy to grow from fruiting blocks so if they aren't available where you live you can just grow them! I do it frequently.
Mushrooms are a great source of umami savory flavor. Great alternative for meat for flavor. Just add a plant based protein source,; like tofu, beans or tempeh.

This video made me happy, thank you for doing all that you do. Particularly for providing sources! I like reading deeper into the subject you cover.
First found out about lions mane mushrooms when I got into growing my own mushrooms at home. Ever since I've wanted to grow my own lion's mane for the memory benefits.
I also just really enjoy the entire process of mushroom cultivation. Something about a single batch of grain spawn coming from a few spores, being able to birth that into literally hundreds of other jars, it's just magical. So different from cultivating plants because fungus will just consume and fill whatever food you give it. It always feels like I'm watching a hivemind at work.
That only further adds to the wonder when they drop their spores. Because each and every one of those individual spores could birth another colony of the same size. Really makes you understand how unflinchingly efficient they are.
It appears mushroom subject broke some spambots xD
@@Kuba_K rofl that's a new type of spam bot. I'm used to seeing people impersonate the TH-camrs not a drug dealer lol
Would you please recommend a source of a starter kit? Thanks in advance!
@@someguy2135 to be honest I've never used a starter kit for growing mushrooms. Always started with spore syringes.
Lions mane grow in sawdust so you can just use a bag of sawdust with small holes in them. Just did some reading and looks like lions mane can be started by inoculating jars of grain spawn just like most mushrooms. So you would just let the mycelium fully colonize the jar before birthing it to new jars or birthing it into a sawdust substrate.
Honestly upon doing some reading these are gonna be easier than I thought. Always figured mushrooms that grow on wood would be more difficult but these work pretty much the same. Only big difference is the mycelium is apparently much thinner than most mushrooms so it's harder to tell when the grain is actually colonized. I'm excited I wanna go buy a spore syringe and get get started now!
I read a side effect of lions mane is erectile dysfunction…
Please research this more.
I was told to take lion's mane after developing some rather hellish neurological conditions and by God almighty indeed it did help. Thank you Hank for this video!
@michaelross7229 No, thanks I don’t need that stuff. I usually like eating mushrooms as a food or med but not dosing on anything of that nature.

I started taking Lion's Mane a few months ago, and this has definitely been my experience. I started taking a low dose and already noticed a small difference in my general cognitive function (focus and memory specifically, but an improvement overall), so after the first month I added pure Lion's Mane, and am taking it for a minimum of 3 months to give it a chance to really start to do its thing. I'm happy to say that I've seen continued improvements since then.
I just started looking into this, there's so many different brands online and you never know if what you're buying is snake oil. What brand did you go with?

This experience gave me a lot of confidence about my self and my body. A bunch of bad thought / behavior patterns were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands a lot. It gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip: Everything is alright. The main reason for the trip was my severe depression and it definitely helped me (although it's not gone). Before all I could do was lay in bed.

Make sure to get something with the fruiting body. I love Gaia and their lions mane is awesome. It’s entirely fruiting bodies and you’ll definitely notice an effect.
It has no mycelium though, which can be beneficial when taken with it so I take another one with the Gaia that has both the fruiting body and mycelium but Gaia is the only brand I noticed a profound effect with.I only take it when I can get plenty of sleep. Rebuilding brain cells require deep sleep. Good luck to you!
I had a stroke September 28th 2020. It was a very big stroke and I was paralyzed on the right side of my body. I was out of the hospital October 30th 2020. My brother found out about lion's mane mushroom June 28th 2021 and told me to try some. After doing research I ordered the extract powder from Amazon and 3 days after receiving the extract I took them and 3 days later a huge wave of tingling happened, starting from my arm and in about 4 hours it moved up my shoulder to my neck to my face to the top of my head and to the left side of my head stopping at my temple, that's the area where I had my stroke. I had no idea what was happening I thought I was going to have another stroke, but that was not the case I just had an anxiety attack because of all the sensation. I stopped taking the lion's mane extract from July until November 2021. Once I got over all of the strange sensations that are happening in my body I started taking them again in November 2021. Now a little over a year of taking the extract everyday I have feeling sensors everywhere in the right side of my body. Every few hours I feel more of the muscles in my leg, foot, hand, fingertips, face moving and functioning. The extract is regenerating all of my nerves which is what happened when I had my stroke, all of my nerves degenerated. Although it takes a while I know I will be 100% feeling everything on the right side of my body again I say this with confidence because now I can walk by myself (limping) my hand opens and closes, my fingers move, my arm moves around by itself and much more. This time last year I still had no sensation of feeling on the right side of my body. I still can't feel through my skin, but I can feel under my skin almost everything. Slowly but surely. I hope this helps you, sorry so long. If you want the link of what I am taking just let me know. God bless hope everything works out.
@@cachorrazo that’s amazing!! I love your story. Congratulations! I hope your story gets out to more people.
Try freshcaps. It’s very strong
@@cachorrazo hold up. The moment I read tingling sensation you managed to blow my mind. I had those same tingling sensations for the first time right before my psychosis episode started. Thankfully it was a one time episode caused by cannabis which I haven't touched since.
But i've been having them consistently everytime I learn something new and it just "clicks". I've had this weird "hypothesis" that the wave of "tingling" or "electric shock" feeling from the head to the body and back has something to do with either brain growth or the brain transmitting strong signals. I thought I was alone in this but seems like people actually experience those.

lionsmame also tastes really good, and makes for a great vegan seafood dish. id highly reccomend growing them wether theyre actively healthy or not

The "active ingredients" most likely work synergistically.
No single compound is doing all the work.

Many have known this for years. Combining lions mane with niacin and psilocybin is a popular microdosing regimen.
Hit up ☝️the handle. He ships safely 🍄💊🔌.....
You know, while this is really cool you kinda have to wonder…
What are these mushrooms trying to do? What is the evolutionary reason they’re producing this effect in multiple different species?
Is it just a byproduct of something else they’re doing or do they gain something from manipulating nerve growth in brains when eaten?
I wonder that same thing
Immediately thought of the last of us.
Though I love mushrooms and eat fresh lions mane mushrooms weekly.
It’s because mushrooms are a gift to the world!
Without them, life would not exist. They are the largest living thing on this earth. ❤ 🍄 ❤
I mean organic compounds often happen in different organisms for different reasons. I am guessing it's by chance or has some faint contection to this phenomen, but not really
Why would you think the mushroom is to gain anything? The ones eating are to gain something. It is not obvious? The mushroom could gain serving it's purpose while working through the system of anyone who eats it. It goes to work.
Wonderful video, thank you.
Amazing, I was referred to this to help with migraines and it's amazing to see how it actually has science to back it up! Righteous
Did you try it for your migraines? If so, did it help?

I've been taking half a teaspoon of powdered lions mane mushroom in my tea and coffee in the mornings. i have psychosis and the side effects of the medication(not the mushroom) resulted in me having mild narcolepsy, i would sleep 14 hours a day. now i sleep 11hours and dont feel tired during the day, it has also help with the number and strength of the psychotic episodes (psychosis and narcolepsy possibly linked as i have a paneel cyst). i have tried nearly every common and some not uncommon supplement and neutropic and this by far is the best. Another one to look out for is the golden root also called rhodiola rosea but i found it to be a bit of a caffine high and it wears off after a few weeks.
The hippocampus is only partially the memory center of the brain. It contains the all the maps of real and abstract environments through which mammals navigate when deliberating on decisions. These maps are built out of networks of hippocampal place cells. Memory systems which store the evaluation criteria for those deliberative decisions, and memory systems which support routine, efficient decision-making exist in other brain structures. The basal ganglia is particularly important for creating and storing signal-action pairs and action-action pairs crucial for rapid procedural behaviors.
Love mushrooms! Can’t remember crap; but love them!
Excellent information !

Does Mr thomas ship?
Yes, he ships discreet and anonymous
glad to see this is catching on! not only is lion's mane delicious, but you can actually feel it and it does really make you feel younger and sharper mentally. extreme clarity. strangely enough colours seem more vivid too.
How do people get access to these mushrooms? I tried talking to my doctor about sirolimus(mtor inhibitor that does like everything the mushrooms mentioned in the video do) after I read a few papers on it and she declined saying the drug has become a standard of care yet for my intended use.
@@CMF412 you have 4 options: forage them wild (my fav), buy a grow kit (simplest), grow them entirely yourself (very rewarding), or buy them in capsule form as supplements (expensive and you don't get to enjoy the scallop flavour)
yikes all the scambots have crawled out of the woodwork. don't contact anyone off youtube comments
Thank you!
@@citrusquest623 tbh I'm rather paranoid and afraid of mushrooms, any advice? (Aside from leap of faith)
I'm used to hearing that specific compounds need to be meticulously extracted and delicately refined for anything to work. Knowing that simply eating the mushroom is beneficial is kind of amazing.
Earth is a 4 billion year old alchemist, she knows what she’s doing, as with cannabis, mushrooms contain a delicate balance of hundreds of compounds some that would only be considered trace amounts, all of which play a role in its complicated alchemy, extracting single compounds at a time, like THC, CBD or mushroom extracts like these based on single compounds they suspect to be the sole cause of its effect, never even asking if the delicate interplay between chemicals served a function itself, an apple contains hundreds of compounds, nature isn’t an isolated incident and neither are its mixtures of chemicals, case and point fungi grow in an environment naturally that professional growers would say “isn’t sterile” yet Earth, the great alchemist, does what growers say can’t be done
Yeah because suppliment companies want you to think their extracted compound is what you need. Most "whole" foods work better than specific compounds extracted from them.
this really makes the "stoned ape theory" seem more plausible than it already did. nice Vid loved the info :)
Very cool, can't wait to re-integrate them into my diet!

The first two to three weeks I didn’t notice much until I started my new job which is in an office with computers doing tech support. The last similar job I lost it due to my ADD. Regardless of my medications, I still encountered the usual symptoms of confusion and disorientation. I’ve been taking two medications, the second one I had just started (after job loss ) and maybe a week later is when I started taking the lions mane. When I started the new job I was just more than halfway finished with the capsules so let’s analyze this:
Previous job- Because of my symptoms I had a hard time learning the new program. Despite reading the procedures every day that I was there, I felt lost often as well as drowsy. Current job- This one also has the same system as the previous one so I dreaded and feared having to go through the same thing again. But something weird happened. While I started training I recognized almost everything that I had seen from the previous job, including the program, what each process does and other aspects. I’ve NEVER experienced anything like this in my life . The first two weeks in the new job I felt very competent, something I rarely feel. I kept thinking that it was just the two meds kicking in but unfortunately, as I was ending my second week I ran out of the Lion’s Mane. I proceeded with my life towards the third week and the end of the third week which is when I’m writing this. Gradually through the week, my mind started to feel foggy again to which today I made a small blunder to a customer’s account. I’m still training so I let my senior coworker know so he could revise what I did thus correcting it in the end. After I noticed this I almost allowed myself to fall in despair because I don’t want to go through this like last time again.
Conclusively I came back to the seller to order it, but I see that the shipping speed is too slow and I won’t get the product until May. I canceled the order and went with another seller with the same type of product which will hopefully arrive today. I can’t risk waiting for this seller to finally send it over a week later.
In a nutshell it’s a pity that the benefits of Lion’s Mane are only present with continuing doses. According to scientists, Lion’s Mane has been observed to aid in growing new neurons. But once you stop taking it, does it mean that those neurons it helped grow die off???
Studies conducted in rats with Alzheimer's show Lion's Mane enhanced acetylcholine and choline acetyltransferase (the enzyme that produces acetylcholine) levels in the blood and hypothalamus.
Try choline/lecithin supplements (and choline acetyltransferase if you can find one)
Lion's mane is also a blood thinner. It all depends on the underlying cause of your brain fog vs what lion's mane delivers
This is a legit good question.
A lot of stuff dies off when you stop taking healthy food every day.
Gave me BAD insomnia, like my brain was going 100mph all night
So many bots here
Couldn’t you have just lowered the dose. ?
@@jaiadixon7918 happened at any dose, weird thing is, it wasnt negative thoughts, just my brain thinking of random stuff all night, probably be great if you're a student studying for exams 😂
I think this stuff is also good for the recovery from the insomnia, the patients can greatly benefit from the hippocampus repair...
Thanks for the video! Definitely really awesome mushrooms! :D
I had brain inflammation from May last year and I was getting worse and in June this year I started taking lions mane and I felt better. But I had done so many other treatments to help my brain inflammation, I was planning to discontinue the mushrooms but I dreamt of goats feeding on them on the side of a hill and I decided it was the mushrooms that actually helped and I will continue to order them. Thank you for this video.
Try other mushrooms too. Like chaga and reishi (for inflamation)
I can't find a source anywhere for any good psychedelics in my area?

Great channel Thanks
There's a confound in that experiment with the mice being attracted to new things while on the mushroom compared to the other. How do they know it is not because of their memory but because of increased curiosity for example?
