You won’t even miss caffeine once you start using Lion’s Mane. It’s the pencil sharpener for our modern world. This elixir allows you to be “on point” as you put your mind to the next task. And don’t worry, no lions were harmed in the making of your new favorite drink.
1 Serving Per Day
“LION’S MANE - my new best friend. The very first time I tried this little packet was blended with some room temperature water. I sat down to my computer to do some work and instantly felt tapped in. I was hyper focused with a sense of pure zen. It also served me immensely—mixed with one packet of reishi—earlier this week after the worst bout of 5p LA traffic. My nervous system relaxed and I became incredibly present at my meeting.” - Lacy Phillips (Founder of FREE + NATIVE, holistic chef.)
Ingredients:
Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is your brain’s best friend when you want to get stuff done. To bring you the most benefits, we extract the Lion’s Mane wood-grown fruiting bodies and then spray-dry the concentrate. The result is a mixable, organic powder with no fillers, or carriers.
Called “golden root” by its friends, Rhodiola is a super adaptogen. We call on it when we need a little extra help in the productivity and creativity departments. Our wildcrafted Rhodiola is harvested from the mountains of Tibet and then extracted.
To balance out the earthiness of Lion’s Mane, we add field mint and rose hips. While mint is a common ingredient, rose hips may feel a little foreign. We’ve always held these beautiful, deep red vitamin C bombs close to our heart. As kids, we used to play with the “itching powder” from the inside of these fruits and later on, we started eating them as a tasty roadside snack.
All Four Sigmatic ingredients are of the highest quality and constantly laboratory tested for heavy metals, mycotoxins, microbial quality and pesticides.

When to drink:
During pregnancy it is important to use caution and listen to the body when consuming strong natural herbs and mushrooms. This is also the case when using Four Sigmatic products. Traditionally, however, all medicinal mushrooms have been used during pregnancy to support the mother’s health and energy levels. Some adaptogenic herbs should be totally fine for a pregnant woman, but some are known to enhance blood flow to the uterus. Please consult your healthcare professional if you have further concerns.
None of our products are on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s (WADA’s) prohibited list, and they are legal all around the world. Most medicinal mushrooms and adaptogenic herbs have been used for over 5,000 years, so it is very unlikely that they will ever make the list or become illegal.
Yes. All our products are vegan, wheat-free, gluten-free, cholesterol-free, sugar-free, soy-free, peanut-free, and nut-free. They also are free from pesticides, additives, and other zombie ingredients that the GMO people promote.
Just like all good superfood manufacturers, we can’t get all our ingredients from one single farm or area if we want to create ideal solutions. We need to source products from all over the world, from the places where they originally grew and/or where there’s an exhaustive history and knowledge of using these foods and herbs. For example, our Chaga is wildcrafted in rural Siberia. We’re constantly looking for new quality suppliers and visiting existing farmers/producers.
All of our products are quite strong, but still tonic. This means that there’s no real health danger in overdosing. Just remember that a high enough dose of anything, including water and apples, can be toxic for your body. There’s still no need to take breaks or adopt cyclical consumption patterns. Rather, it’s wise to use the products consistently, to beat minor illnesses before they arise. Treating the cause is always healthier than curing the symptoms (such as by drinking the products only after you’ve become ill).
Personally, we recommend starting the use of new (even tonic) products with slightly smaller-than-normal dosages (e.g., one sachet of mushrooms) to get a feel for their potency and to give the body a chance to adapt to the new intelligence coming into it. After a few weeks of taking gradually increasing dosages, feel free to go ahead and drink as much as you like each day. Just listen to your body and your cravings, and all should be fine.
Rich Roll (Ultra-Endurance Triathlete & Bestselling Author): "The term ‘superfood’ may be prone to exaggeration but I can honestly say that Four Sigmatic adaptogens and mushroom blends have been an integral and instrumental component of my success equation. Also a crucial and easy way to stay on top of my performance nutrition when traveling!"

Emily Schromm (Crossfit Coach & Athlete):"I was encouraged to try Four Sigmatics Cordyceps because of the amount of stress I was putting my body through my schedule and through my workouts.
