๐Ÿ„ Whatโ€™s the deal with Lionโ€™s Mane? What even is ergothioneine? And are mushroom tinctures or powders more effective?

In this episode of The Herbalist Hour, Iโ€™m joined by Lee Carroll of Real Mushrooms to unpack some of the most common myths โ€” and truths โ€” about medicinal mushrooms.

We dive into: โ€“ The difference between alcohol extractions vs. mushroom powders โ€“ How to spot quality mushroom supplements โ€“ Why some people are mycophobic (fearful of fungi) โ€“ What ergothioneine is โ€” and why Lee calls it a vitamin โ€“ How Lionโ€™s Mane might actually work in the body โ€“ Product updates and behind-the-scenes from Real Mushrooms

Whether youโ€™re deep in your mushroom era or just myco-curious, this oneโ€™s for you.
