I drink a coffee alternative that happens to have Lion's Mane in it. Can't really be objective on if it has really made a difference in my memory since that's not the reason I primarily bought it (it was to get off coffee which is negatively impacting me).
FourSigmatic coffee is real coffee with lions mane. Did you try something else?
This is the product I used to eliminate coffee. It has no coffee.
This ̶m̶u̶s̶h̶r̶o̶o̶m̶ ̶ fungi is easy enough to grow and cultivate yourself[2][3] - IF - you have time for such shenanigans. I did this last year through summer and autumn in my garage. I'm making no claims about effects or health benefits, but it is tasty and I managed to grow it on a number of substrates (including waste such as brown cardboard and coffee grounds). If you're in the UK (as I am)and you see it wild,…
They want 71£ for 4oz of lions mane powder. Am I missing something? That seems exorbitant. https://southwestmushrooms.com/en-gb/products/mushroom-powde...
I know I looked at what you could realistically charge to restaurants in the UK and it was somewhere around £15 a kilo. This is why I'd prefer to eat the thing, rather than a product of the thing.
Ask them - see what they say. I'd be surprised if they didn't explain it.
Nice try cordyceps, not falling for that one. No pancakes for breakfast today!
You can eat all the cordyceps you want until global warming causes it to mutate to be able to survive human body temperatures. We’ve probably still got a few decades before then.

I'm based in London and wondering if there are places to buy lion's mane whole?
I'd probably start with businesses that sell organic food. But you already probably knew that and so these words are futile. I offer them in good faith.
Drink as much water as you can. Breathe clean air. Walk. Get as much sleep as you can. Lift something heavy regularly.

The following will out perform every fancy nootropic: Drink as much water as you can. Breathe clean air. Walk. Get as much sleep as you can. Lift something heavy regularly.
If I was being a pedant (which I tacitly now am), I'd be tempted to add two things:
1 - mindfulness meditation. Building the ability of the mind to hold attention is arguably just as useful as training the muscles. Especially for longer term knowledge workers who "get a bit bored of this staring at the screen thing". Like me. This comment is evidence of my ability to procrastinate.
2 - eat wide and well. Up to the individual to decide what that translates into, but eating wide and well will give you all the range of macro and micro nutrients you'll need for optimum cognitive performance.

Drink water while it makes you feel good, but for the love of God, do not force-hydrate yourself, especially if you are not 40.
