Description
- Hericium Mother Tincture Without Alcohol is an herbal preparation extracted from Hericium Erinaceus powder, titrated at 30% in Beta-Glucans and 5% in Alpha-Glucans.
- This type of extract contains the total phytocomplex of the fungus in aqueous form.
- Lion’s Mane is a mushroom native to China and the Tibetan highlands, widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for its diverse properties including antioxidant, neuroprotective, hepaprotective, antihypertensive and immune-stimulating.
- Hericium, along with other mushrooms such as Cordycep e Reishi, as being particularly rich in beneficial properties for the body, is the basis of Mycotherapy.
- Hericium extract is rich in important properties that have been mainly attributed to the presence of macro- and micro-nutrients such as calcium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese;molybdenum, phosphorus, selenium, sodium, sulfur, zinc, and thanks to a group of bioactive compounds present in the fungus such as γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), ergothioneine, and lovostatin, the latter present only in the fruiting body.
- Usually the mother tincture is made with alcoholic maceration of officinal herbs, alcohol and water for a certain period of time (20-40 days). However, to make the product also suitable for children and pregnant women , there are also Alcohol-Free Mother Tinctures , made with a mix of Water and Glycerin as solvents.
- Our alcohol-free mother tinctures are obtained thanks to an innovative type of Ultrasound Extraction , which allows the complete extraction of the plant material , while at the same time preserving the integrity of all the molecules contained in the plant. All this is made possible thanks to the shock wave produced by ultrasound which causes the mechanical breakdown of the cell walls.
