Lion's Mane Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan

Lion's Mane Extract: 50% Polysaccharides, 30% Beta Glucan 

Verified Beta Glucan Content | NSF GMP Certified | Ships from California in 48 Hours

We get it. The mushroom extract market is flooded with grain-based fillers and inflated claims.

That's why at Earth Made Nutritions Inc., we test every batch of Lion's Mane Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan for true beta-glucan content using the Megazyme enzymatic method—the only test that separates active compounds from cheap starches.

What you're getting:

· 30% verified 1,3-1,6 Beta-D-Glucan (not just "polysaccharides")

· 100% fruiting body source (zero mycelium on grain)

· Negative iodine test confirming no maltodextrin or starch fillers

· In-stock availability with 2-day pickup from our California facility

Why Beta Glucan Content Matters (And Why Most Suppliers Won't Tell You)?

Here's what most mushroom extract sellers don't want you to know:

"50% Polysaccharides" can mean almost nothing.

Polysaccharides include both:

· ✅Beta-glucans(the active compounds you want)

· ❌Alpha-glucans(cheap starches and fillers)

Many suppliers spike polysaccharide numbers with maltodextrin or use mycelium grown on grain (which is 30-60% starch). You pay premium prices for flour.

Our Difference: Verified Beta Glucan Testing

We measure beta-glucan content usingMegazyme K-YBGL enzymatic assay—the gold standard that specifically quantifies 1,3-1,6 beta-D-glucan structures.

Every batch of Lion's Mane Extract Polysaccharides Beta Glucan also undergoes theiodine starch test. A negative result (which all our batches pass) confirms zero grain-based fillers.

Translation:You're paying for active compounds, not filler.

Quality Control: What We Test (And Why)

Species Authentication

Method:HPTLC + FTIR fingerprinting

Purpose:Confirms genuine Hericium erinaceus (not substitute species or mycelium on grain)

Beta-Glucan Quantification

Method:Megazyme enzymatic assay (K-YBGL)

Purpose:Measures actual 1,3-1,6 beta-glucan content (not just total sugars)

Starch Detection

Method:Iodine test

Purpose:Verifies absence of grain fillers and maltodextrin adulteration

Our Result:Negative (every batch)

Heavy Metals

Standards:USP/EP limits

Results:Lead <3.0ppm, Arsenic <1.0ppm

Why It Matters:Mushrooms naturally accumulate minerals—testing is essential

Microbial Safety

FAQ

Q: How do I know this is really from fruiting bodies and not mycelium on grain?

A: Check the alpha-glucan (starch) content. Mycelium on grain typically contains 30-60% starch with low beta-glucans. Our fruiting body extract has <5% alpha-glucan with 30% beta-glucan. We provide batch-specific COAs proving this difference.

Q: Why does color vary slightly between batches?

A: Natural agricultural variation. Harvest timing, substrate composition, and drying temperature affect color from light to dark brown. However, the HPTLC fingerprint and beta-glucan assay stay consistent—that's what matters for formulation performance.

Q: Will this work in liquid products?

A: Yes. Hot water extracts show good water solubility. You may see slight haze in high-concentration solutions—this indicates genuine polysaccharide compounds, not a problem. For alcohol-based tinctures, our ethanol extraction ensures excellent compatibility.

Q: What's the shelf life and storage requirements?

A: 24-36 months when stored in a cool, dry place in sealed containers. Beta-glucans are hygroscopic (attract moisture), so humidity exposure causes caking. Our double-lined polyethylene bags inside fiber drums protect against moisture during storage and shipping.

Q: Can I test a sample before ordering?

A: Absolutely. We provide free samples so you can verify quality before committing to production quantities. Email us with your testing requirements and timeline.

Q: What's the minimum order?

A: 25kg (one drum). For established partners with ongoing needs, we can discuss customized packaging and delivery schedules.
