Score breakdown
Score Breakdown
The product uses Lion's Mane fruiting body (Hericium erinaceus), which scores the maximum 4 points for source type. A dual extraction method is disclosed, scoring 2 points for extraction method. Total mushroom extract per serving is 1,000mg, meeting the threshold for the full 2 points on dose adequacy. Beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, so that sub-score is 0.
The brand publicly states both the source type and the extraction method, earning 2 and 1 points respectively. Beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed and no COA is available, resulting in 0 points for both those fields. Country of origin is not publicly disclosed, and three or more core fields are missing, triggering a transparency penalty of -1.
Beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, so cost per 100mg beta-glucan cannot be calculated. The price per serving used is £0.9352 (based on the subscription price of £23.38 for 25 servings, where the subscription saving of 15% meets the threshold). Using the price-per-serving benchmark, this falls in the range above £0.71 per serving, giving a base score that is then reduced by 1 point because beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, resulting in a value score of 1.0.
No Trustpilot profile is publicly disclosed, scoring 0 points. Third-party testing is not publicly disclosed and no COA is available, scoring 0 points. The product holds organic certification from two named bodies, the Soil Association and EU Organic (GB-ORG-05), scoring the full 2 points for organic certification.
A subscription is available with no lock-in disclosed, though the cancellation policy is not clearly stated, scoring 3 points for subscription flexibility. The return policy is 14 days, scoring 2 points. The brand operates in the UK and ships to the UK, scoring the full 3 points for UK availability.
