pantothenic acid
Why is pantothenic acid important?
Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is one of the eight B-vitamins, a group the body does not store in any quantity and so needs from food each day.Pantothenic acid contributes to normal mental performance and to the normal synthesis and metabolism of some neurotransmitters. Each capsule provides 6 mg – the full daily reference intake – together with thiamine (B1), vitamin B6 and vitamin B12, which contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism, the normal functioning of the nervous system and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. The Lion's Mane sits alongside these vitamins as a named, standardised ingredient: 250 mg of a 12:1 extract from the fruiting body, described here by what it is rather than what it does.

Frequently asked questions
How many capsules a day, and how long does a pouch last?
One capsule daily. A 90-capsule pouch is a 90-day supply.
Is this fruiting body or mycelium, and why does it matter?
It is 100% fruiting body – the visible mushroom. Mycelium is the root-like network the mushroom grows from, and in supplements it is usually cultivated on grain and harvested together with it, so a mycelium powder can carry a good deal of the grain it grew on. We state fruiting body because the two are different raw materials and the pack should say which one you are getting. The 30% polysaccharide figure is measured on the mushroom extract itself.
What do the B-vitamins do, and what does the Lion's Mane do?
The functions on this page belong to the vitamins. Pantothenic acid contributes to normal mental performance and to the normal synthesis and metabolism of some neurotransmitters; vitamins B6 and B12 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal psychological function; vitamins B1, B6 and B12 contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism; and thiamine, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system. Lion's Mane has no authorised health claim of its own, and we do not make one for it. It is in the formula as the named extract – 250 mg at 12:1 from the fruiting body, standardised to 30% polysaccharides – and we describe it by what it is, not by what it does.
What do “12:1” and “30% polysaccharides” mean?
12:1 is the extraction ratio: twelve parts of dried fruiting body are used to make one part of extract, so each 250 mg capsule is made from the equivalent of 3,000 mg of raw mushroom. Standardised to 30% polysaccharides means the polysaccharide content – the mushroom's characteristic compound family – is measured and held at that level in every batch, which works out at 75 mg per capsule. Both figures describe what is in the capsule and how consistently; neither is a statement about effect.
Is it suitable for vegans, and is there anyone who should not take it?
Yes – the capsule is a vegan HPMC shell, the vitamin B12 is methylcobalamin, and the formula is free from gluten, dairy, lactose, soya, nuts, sugar and GMO, with no unnecessary fillers. It is for adults only and not suitable for anyone under 18. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication, consult your doctor before use.
