Overview

Genius Mushrooms combines three of the most researched medicinal mushrooms: Lion's Mane (500mg) for cognitive function and nerve growth factor, Reishi (500mg) for immune support and stress adaptation, and Cordyceps (500mg) for energy and athletic performance. Unlike many mushroom supplements, Genius uses organic fruiting body extracts rather than mycelium-on-grain, providing higher concentrations of active beta-glucans. The brand has built a strong following in the nootropic community for its transparent labeling and evidence-based formulations.
