Use of Hericium erinaceu Mycelia Fermentation Product for Improving dementia

“Alzheimer’s disease is a common neurodegenerative disorder, believed to be primarily caused by the excessive accumulation of amyloid plaques outside nerve cells, leading to the atrophy and death of neural cells in the patient’s brain and hippocampus. This results in the loss of memory and cognitive abilities, as well as the degeneration of language and perceptual functions. This present invention utilizes the natural edible fungus Hericium erinaceus, commonly known as Lion’s Mane mushroom. After fermentation, a compound called Erinacine A is purified, and experimental evidence confirms that Erinacine A can reduce the accumulation of amyloid plaques in the brain. Furthermore, it significantly improves learning and memory abilities, making it effective in maintaining the quality of life for the elderly population in an aging society.”
