HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Lion's Mane Mushroom by Forest Super Foods

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Partial disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Partial

Most active ingredients list an amount, but at least one is hidden in a blend or missing.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 2 active ingredients.

This product contains 2 active ingredients: sodium and Lion's Mane Mushroom extract. Sodium is an essential mineral your body needs in small amounts for nerve and muscle function, but this product supplies it as a supplement rather than from food.

Lion's Mane Mushroom is a fungal extract sometimes used in traditional medicine for cognitive support, though its effectiveness in humans is not yet well established.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Memory and cognitive support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Alzheimer disease, Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment, Dementia, Memory, Anxiety — 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 Anxiety, Cognitive function, Cognitive impairment, Dementia, and more.

The evidence we hold does not establish that Lion's Mane Mushroom is effective for any condition — the data shows insufficient reliable evidence for Alzheimer's disease, anxiety, cognitive function, athletic performance, cancer, and cognitive impairment. Sodium, meanwhile, is rated Likely Effective only for cystic fibrosis and Possibly Effective for protecting the kidneys during amphotericin B treatment (an antifungal drug).

For most other uses, the evidence is insufficient or absent.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sodium Lion's Mane Mushroom

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Lion's Mane Mushroom is generally well tolerated as a food, though long-term supplement safety has not been well studied. Some people report gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, or skin rash.

However, there isn't enough safety data to use it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance. Sodium is essential in small amounts, but too much is linked to high blood pressure and heart strain.

Normal dietary sodium is fine, but avoid sodium supplements or very high intake without medical advice. Serious adverse effects from high sodium intake are rare but can include worsened heart disease, high blood pressure, and kidney disease.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product combines two ingredients with significant medication interactions, particularly around blood pressure control and electrolyte balance. If you take any prescription medications — especially blood pressure drugs, lithium, diabetes medications, blood thinners, steroid medications, or HIV drugs — check with your pharmacist before starting.

Even if you're not on medications, the sodium content warrants caution if you have heart, kidney, or blood pressure concerns.

Lion's Mane Mushroom3 drug types · 327 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, lion's mane mushroom may increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro research suggests that lion's mane mushroom extracts can inhibit platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, lion's mane mushroom may have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that an aqueous extract of lion's mane mushroom can reduce serum glucose and increase serum insulin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, concurrent use of lion's mane mushroom might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In animal and in vitro research, lion's mane mushroom polysaccharides stimulate the immune system.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lion's Mane Mushroom full monograph & interactions

Sodium7 drug types · 205 drugs

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, a high intake of dietary sodium might reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs.
High intake of dietary sodium can increase systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Also, high intake of sodium may necessitate increased use of antihypertensive medications to achieve blood pressure control in some patients, such as those with chronic kidney disease.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Corticosteroids

Concomitant use of mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids (corticosteroids) cause sodium retention. This effect is dose-related and depends on mineralocorticoid potency. It is most common with hydrocortisone, cortisone, and fludrocortisone, followed by prednisone and prednisolone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Didanosine (Videx)

Concomitant use of didanosine with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Didanosine formulations contain a significant amount of sodium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence C
Lithium

Altering dietary intake of sodium might alter the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
High sodium intake can reduce plasma concentrations of lithium by increasing lithium excretion. Reducing sodium intake can significantly increase plasma concentrations of lithium and cause lithium toxicity in patients being treated with lithium carbonate. Stabilizing sodium intake is shown to reduce the percentage of patients with lithium level fluctuations above 0.8 mEq/L. Patients taking lithium should avoid significant alterations in their dietary intake of sodium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Sodium Phosphates

Theoretically, concomitant use of sodium phosphate with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Use of high doses (> 45 mL in 24 hours) of sodium phosphate, such as those used for bowel cleansing before surgery, can lead to serious electrolyte disturbances, including hypernatremia. The risk of hypernatremia is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sodium-Containing Drugs

Concomitant use of sodium-containing drugs with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia and long-term sodium-related complications.
The Chronic Disease Risk Reduction (CDRR) intake level of 2.3 grams of sodium daily indicates the intake at which it is believed that chronic disease risk increases for the apparently healthy population. Some medications contain high quantities of sodium. When used in conjunction with sodium supplements or high-sodium diets, the CDRR may be exceeded. Additionally, concomitant use may increase the risk for hypernatremia; this risk is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tolvaptan (Samsca)

Theoretically, concomitant use of tolvaptan with sodium might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Tolvaptan is a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist that is used to increase sodium levels in patients with hyponatremia. Patients taking tolvaptan should use caution with the use of sodium salts such as sodium chloride.

Lion's Mane Mushroom by Forest Super Foods: Common Questions

Does Lion's Mane Mushroom by Forest Super Foods interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Lion's Mane Mushroom has a known interaction with 511 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Lion's Mane Mushroom contains 5 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I have high blood pressure or take blood pressure medication?
Not without checking first. The sodium in this product can reduce how well blood pressure medications work, which might mean you'd need higher doses. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they can help decide whether it's right for you.
What's the difference between the sodium in food and the sodium in this supplement?
Both are the same mineral chemically, but supplement sodium is added on top of what you eat, so it's easier to exceed the recommended daily amount. Normal dietary sodium is fine; supplements add extra intake that most people don't need.
Does Lion's Mane Mushroom actually help with memory or brain function?
We don't have reliable evidence yet that it does. The data shows insufficient evidence for Alzheimer's disease, cognitive impairment, anxiety, and other brain-related uses — so it's not proven to help with those.
What side effects might I notice if I take this?
Lion's Mane Mushroom may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, or a skin rash in some people. Too much sodium can raise your blood pressure and strain your heart, though this is rare at normal doses.
Is this safe to use if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — there isn't enough safety data for Lion's Mane Mushroom during pregnancy or lactation, so it's best to avoid it. Talk with your doctor about your options.
