When it comes to something as complex as your cognitive function, it really does take more than just one or two factors.
In this blog post, we’ll talk about why more and more people are looking for natural support for their mental well-being. We’ll talk about the blend of mushroom fruiting body extracts found in Deep Brain Health, and how they work together to support every aspect of your cognitive functions.
The mushroom species found in Deep Brain Health can help you feel more clear-headed, banish brain fog, and support things like recall and creative thought.
As our #1-bestselling product, Deep Brain Health is proof that mushrooms don’t need to be mind-altering to be great for your brain!
The Mind-Mushroom Connection
Psychedelic and psilocybin-containing mushrooms are finally getting the mainstream attention and recognition they deserve, for their ability to potentially aid a wide-range of mental health issues.
However, these are not the only mushrooms with apparent benefits for the brain.
Nearly all functions of the body start in the brain as transmissions between nerves. These cognitive functions, such as memory, attention, reasoning, and problem-solving are some that we use every single day.
And this is where mushrooms may come into play. Some mushrooms fall into the category of nootropics, believed to support cognitive function and help the brain perform optimally.
Deep Brain Health: Supporting Cognitive Function
A blend of six 100% mushroom fruiting body extracts, Deep Brain Health combines nootropic mushrooms designed to work together, and support every aspect of your cognitive functions.
Whether as a daily capsule, or a scoop added to a smoothie (brain food!) Deep Brain Health can help reduce and manage stress, support your mood, and otherwise perform at a higher level. Here’s a look at what’s inside.
Shiitake
Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) brings serious health and flavor benefits to the table. As the mushroom with the highest vitamin D levels, and rich in B vitamins and antioxidants, shiitake boasts lentinan, a beta-glucan that may positively impact both mood and memory.

Black Fungus
Growing on trees and fallen logs, Black Fungus (Auricularia polytricha) compounds are believed to support cognitive and immune system health.
Oyster
With over 40 edible varieties, the oyster mushroom family is packed with beneficial minerals, vitamins, and other brain-supporting compounds. Among them is ergothioneine, known for supporting cognitive health and promoting mental well-being.
Poria
Known as Wolfiporia extensa, this mushroom has a rich tradition in Chinese medicine spanning over 2,000 years. High in the B-vitamins essential for brain function, Poria is believed to play a role in clearing the brain of harmful plaque build-ups, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases later in life.
Lion’s Mane
Found across the northern hemisphere, and especially cherished in East Asia for centuries, Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) may stimulate nerve growth factor (NGF), promoting the protection of nerve cells in the brain. Additionally, it provides antioxidants to shield the brain from oxidative stress.
Tremella
Resembling a cross between coral and silvery-white coconut jelly, Tremella fuciformis is a tropical mushroom that studies suggest may improve memory scores, while also promoting nerve growth factor (NGF). Its polysaccharides could offer also antioxidant and immune-supporting benefits for the entire body.
Synergy of Mushroom Extracts: Elevating Cognitive Prowess
While each mushroom brings their own benefits individually, it’s their synergy that makes Deep Brain Health a powerhouse. It’s not just about targeting specific concerns; it’s about fostering an environment where your brain can flourish—clear, focused, and resilient.
