HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Fermented Organic Lion's Mane 1000 mg by Solaray

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product has one active ingredient: fermented organic lion's mane mushroom, at 1000 mg per capsule. Lion's mane is a mushroom that has been studied for its possible effects on memory, anxiety, and immune activity, but the evidence in our data is not established for any of these uses.

The only inactive ingredient listed is pullulan, a plant-derived material used in capsules. Inactive ingredients are not active ingredients, and this product's capsule-making ingredients are not otherwise described in our data.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Lion's Mane Mushroom's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: cognitive support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Alzheimer disease, Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment, Dementia, Memory, Age-related cognitive decline — and 3 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Lion's Mane Mushroom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Alzheimer disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lion's Mane Mushroom is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment, Dementia, Memory.

Our data holds no reliable evidence rating that lets us say lion's mane works for any use. Every area we track is rated Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate, including Alzheimer disease, anxiety, athletic performance, cancer, cognitive function, and cognitive impairment.

In plain terms, the studies we hold are not strong enough to show whether this mushroom helps with memory, mood, performance, or any other condition. Talk with your own doctor or pharmacist before expecting a benefit.

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 0 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Our safety notes say lion's mane is generally well tolerated as a food, but supplement safety has not been well studied over the long term. Reported side effects include gastrointestinal discomfort (stomach upset), nausea, and skin rash.

Our data does not give frequencies for these effects. Our safety notes advise avoiding this product during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, because there is not enough safety data to know whether it is safe.

We do not hold a separate pregnancy and breastfeeding entry for this ingredient beyond that note. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Lion's Mane Mushroom.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 327 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Double-check any blood thinners (anticoagulants) and antiplatelet drugs, then antidiabetes drugs and immunosuppressants, since our data rates all three Moderate. Talk with your own doctor or pharmacist before combining this product with any of these medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.
