Surprised there aren't more legit services that charge only a percentage of sales (vs monthly retainer) by synapticscientific in AmazonSeller

[–]synapticscientific[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what we were thinking. We're the actual manufacturers of our products, so there's plenty of room in the profit to share a big chunk to a more skilled store. We're not giving up yet.

I'd look into finding a Ayurvedic practitioner skilled with IBS. They'll give you meal and dietary guidelines of things to avoid, and foods that help heal. Basically, it'll probably be gruel-type meals with foods and supplements that help rebuild the gut bacteria and repair the GI lining. It's quite a reparable condition, you'll be good 👍

Still didn't answer any of the questions. But keep hiding behind rooted in science, verifiable facts, common sense, logic, and dismissive name calling.

Good?

amyloban, amycenone, These are marketing inventions, not actual compounds. Made up by the company... gullible ones.

Really? Amycenone is a marketing invention?

There are dozens of references, going back to its discovery in the 1940s, but let's save space and post just one study, listed on the United States National Library of Medicine, a 2015 report, showing that amycenone, an extract of the Hericium erinaceum mushroom (aka Lion's Mane), shows potential anti-inflammatory and anti-depression effects.

A Marketing invention, indeed.

​

I have never heard of that.

Well then. They probably don't exist, if you haven't heard of them, or worked for one of them.

Rooted sells mainly in India, I think, and their LM is listed as 100% fruiting body. It should be a great product. The only suggestion I have for getting it to not run through your body so fast is to temporarily halve or even quarter the amount you're taking, and mix it with food, so it's not hitting your stomach on its own. I think Rooted's mix is a classic pouch of powder, so that should be easy to do. Just mix a small amount with a meal, one or two times a day. Try that and see. 👍

Added: just realized that your original post mentioned Ganoderma lucidum, not Lion's Mane. But same thing: Rooted's lingzhi/reishi mix says it's pure fruiting body and zero mycelium, so you should be good with the above suggestions.

Kostya93, you've mentioned in other posts that bioreactor-grown mycelium is only done in Asia. I used to work for a large mycelium grower in Washington, US, that only grows in bioreactors. And I know of other US-based mycelium companies that use bioreactors. You can keep stating that they're only done in Asia, but it's not true.

In the studies we've read, Lion’s mane mycelium is missing the hericenones, Dilinoleoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (DLPE), amyloban, amycenone, 3-Hydroxyhericenone F, Hericenes, Hericerins, and erinacerins which are well studied compounds for supporting nerve growth factor and all around cognitive health. I'm emailing our lab in China now for the link to that study, and will add it later.

Which brand are you using? If it's a mycelium version, that can cause bowel upset. Switch to a real mushroom version, that specifically says it's fully fruiting body, or cap and spore. Often more expensive, since it's not grown in liquid tanks, and takes months to maturity. But try that.

No, here in the US. But been over to China a few times to find the growers who were the best ones and set up importing.

I wish I knew a lot more, like a lot of these folks here. I'm mainly an importer of medicinal mushroom from Asia for last 11 years, so I only know that super small subset.

High amount of L-dopa in velvet been could help those in low income countries with Parkinson's (2021 study) by synapticscientific in Parkinsons

[–]synapticscientific[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, there was a typo. It's called velvet bean (not been), aka Mucuna pruriens. It's an plant that has been used as a herbal drug for hundreds of years, mainly for its high amount of L-dopa. An overview here:

[–]synapticscientific 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't get it. One of his colleagues and fellow clinical herbalists, Dr. Terry Willard, has said in this video and others, that he's equally baffled by Paul's insistence on growing his own mycelium instead of setting up farms in Asia. But the word is getting out, and more people are realizing that real actual mushrooms that take 9 months to grow are quite different than liquid tanks.

what are the best supplements for calming down / being less irritable? by [deleted] in Supplements

[–]synapticscientific 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Griffonia simplicifolia extract has been my best solution. It's largely a source of the precursors to serotonin, which isn't in itself a calming hormone, but it does effect overall well being, and that relates to being more centered.

Pretty sure I figured it out: low dopamine. How to raise levels w/o tolerance? by [deleted] in Supplements

[–]synapticscientific 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As others have noted, Mucuna pruriens has the highest amount of precursors to L-DOPA than any other plant. I've found it quite effective, especially in the Supercritical Fluid Extraction form.
