Score breakdown
Score Breakdown
The product uses Lion's Mane fruiting body (Hericium erinaceus), which scores the maximum 4 points for source type. The brand states a beta-glucan content of 32%, which falls in the 30–39% range and scores 3 out of 4. The extraction method is not publicly disclosed, scoring 0. The serving size is 1,000mg, which meets the threshold for the full 2 points on dose adequacy.
The brand states the source type (fruiting body) clearly and discloses a country of origin (Europe), earning points on both fields. However, the extraction method is not publicly disclosed, and no COA is publicly available, scoring 0 on both. The beta-glucan percentage is brand-stated only, with no third-party verification linked, scoring 1 out of 2. No transparency penalty applies as fewer than three core fields are missing.
The beta-glucan content per serving is 320mg, calculated from the brand-stated 32% applied to the 1,000mg serving. At a price per serving of £0.52, the cost per 100mg beta-glucan is £0.1624, which falls in the exceptional value tier (at or below £0.20), giving a value score of 9.19. The subscription saving of 10% is below the 15% threshold, so the one-off price per serving is used.
The brand holds a Trustpilot score of 4.6 from 1,362 reviews, meeting the threshold for the maximum 5 points. The brand states third-party testing has been carried out, but no COA is publicly available, scoring 1 out of 3. Organic certification is stated but no named certification body is disclosed, scoring 1 out of 2.
A subscription is available with no lock-in stated, though the cancellation policy is not clearly described, scoring 3 out of 4. The return policy is 21 days, which falls in the 14–29 day range and scores 2 out of 3. The brand is UK-based and ships to the UK, scoring the maximum 3 points for UK availability.

How Erbology could improve this score
Path to improvement
+1.1 points to reach Fully Verified
+1.1
pts needed
- 1
Publish the extraction method (e.g. hot water extract) on the product page — this would add up to 2 points to the ingredient quality score.
- 2
Make a COA publicly available, ideally covering beta-glucans, heavy metals, and microbial contamination from an ISO 17025-accredited laboratory — this would add up to 3 points to the transparency score.
- 3
Have the beta-glucan percentage verified by a named third-party laboratory and link the COA — this would move score_beta_glucan_disclosed from 1 to 2 points.
- 4
Name the organic certification body on the product page — this would add 1 point to the trust score.
- 5
Clarify the subscription cancellation policy (e.g. confirm cancel anytime) — this would add 1 point to the consumer experience score.
