Cognition, memory, and focus is the main area connected here, and any felt benefit should be read together with the human evidence base.
Some human supplement-context evidence is present and directly informs the score.
Representative tier calculated from paper evidence that passed the collection audit.
The representative ingredient tier is calculated from these target-level evidence groups.
Potential benefit studied in Cognition and focus. These findings come from a defined study population, so everyday effects may differ.
This score reflects the strength of this benefit group. The ingredient tier also considers paper count, repetition, population, and study context.
Potential benefit studied in Exercise performance and recovery.
This score reflects the strength of this benefit group. The ingredient tier also considers paper count, repetition, population, and study context.
Potential benefit studied in Immune and respiratory health. These findings come from a defined study population, so everyday effects may differ.
This score reflects the strength of this benefit group. The ingredient tier also considers paper count, repetition, population, and study context.
These findings come from stress response, cortisol, anxiety, or sleep outcomes. They may mix felt benefits with physiological markers.
This score reflects the strength of this benefit group. The ingredient tier also considers paper count, repetition, population, and study context.
This range comes from human studies in general supplement-use contexts.
Findings from studies of this ingredient alone are separated from findings involving another supplement or medication.
Side effects reported for the ingredient alone are separated from findings involving another supplement or medication.
Symptoms or adverse events reported in studies of this ingredient without another active ingredient.

[Abstract]: The culinary and medicinal mushroom Hericium erinaceus is widely consumed in Asian countries, but apparently not in the United States, for its nutritional and health benefits. To stimulate broader interest in the reported beneficial properties, thi
[Abstract]: A double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled trial was performed on 50- to 80-year-old Japanese men and women diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment in order to examine the efficacy of oral administration of Yamabushitake (Hericium erinaceu
This article critically reviews the current literature on the potential benefits of H. erinaceus as a treatment for depressive disorder as well as its mechanisms underlying the antidepressant-like activities.
[Abstract]: Hericium erinaceus, an ideal culinary-medicinal mushroom, has become a well-established candidate in promoting positive brain and nerve health-related activities by inducing the nerve growth factor from its bioactive ingredient. Among its active co
[Abstract]: Hericium erinaceus, a well known edible mushroom, has numerous biological activities. Especially hericenones and erinacines isolated from its fruiting body stimulate nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis, which expects H. erinaceus to have some effec
[Abstract]: EP-1 is a polysaccharide with a molecular weight of approximately 3100 Da, which is extracted from the cultured mycelium of Hericium erinaceus. Its anti-ulcerative colitis activity was evaluated in experimental systems using rats with ulcerative co
