Score breakdown

Score Breakdown

Ingredient Quality10.0

The product uses fruiting body Lion's Mane, which scores the maximum 4 points for source type. The brand states a beta-glucan content of 30%, placing it in the 30–39% band for 3 points. Dual extraction is disclosed, scoring 2 points, and while hot water extraction is the established standard for Lion's Mane, dual extraction also captures any additional compounds present. At 2,000mg per serving, the dose exceeds the 1,000mg threshold and scores the full 2 points for dose adequacy.

Mushroom source type4.0/4
Beta-glucan %3.0/4
Extraction method2.0/2
Dose adequacy2.0/2
Transparency7.8

The brand states the source type clearly, discloses the extraction method, and reports a full-panel COA as available, each contributing positively to the transparency score. The beta-glucan percentage is stated by the brand but is not publicly verified by a named third-party laboratory, so score_beta_glucan_disclosed is 1 rather than 2. The country of origin is not publicly disclosed, which costs 1 point and is recorded as a data gap. Two of the five core penalty fields are missing (country_of_origin and beta_glucan_pct unverified), which does not reach the threshold of three required to apply the transparency penalty.

Value2.0

The price per serving is £1.00 (calculated from £29.99 for 30 servings). With 600mg of beta-glucans per serving (2,000mg at 30%), the cost per 100mg beta-glucan is approximately £1.67, which falls above the £1.20 threshold and scores in the very high cost per active unit band. This reflects price relative to the disclosed beta-glucan content only and does not indicate anything about the product's quality or suitability.

Trust8.0

The product has a Trustpilot score of 4.8 from 310 reviews. This meets the ≥4.5 stars threshold but falls below the 500-review count required for the top band, scoring 3 points. Third-party testing is disclosed as true and a full-panel COA is stated as available, scoring the maximum 3 points. Organic certification is stated as true, but no named certification body is publicly disclosed, which awards 2 points under the current data while noting the gap.

Score reasoning

Ingredient Quality

The product uses fruiting body Lion's Mane, which scores the maximum 4 points for source type. The brand states a beta-glucan content of 30%, placing it in the 30–39% band for 3 points. Dual extraction is disclosed, scoring 2 points, and while hot water extraction is the established standard for Lion's Mane, dual extraction also captures any additional compounds present. At 2,000mg per serving, the dose exceeds the 1,000mg threshold and scores the full 2 points for dose adequacy.

Transparency

The brand states the source type clearly, discloses the extraction method, and reports a full-panel COA as available, each contributing positively to the transparency score. The beta-glucan percentage is stated by the brand but is not publicly verified by a named third-party laboratory, so score_beta_glucan_disclosed is 1 rather than 2. The country of origin is not publicly disclosed, which costs 1 point and is recorded as a data gap. Two of the five core penalty fields are missing (country_of_origin and beta_glucan_pct unverified), which does not reach the threshold of three required to apply the transparency penalty.

Value

The price per serving is £1.00 (calculated from £29.99 for 30 servings).

How Mushrooms4Life could improve this score

Path to improvement

+0.6 points to reach Fully Verified

+0.6

pts needed

  • 1

    Publish the country of origin for the mushroom source material — this would add 1 point to the transparency score.

  • 2

    Publish a publicly accessible COA URL from an ISO 17025-accredited laboratory confirming the 30% beta-glucan figure — this would upgrade score_beta_glucan_disclosed from 1 to 2 points and improve the trust dimension.

  • 3

    Name the certification body for the organic claim — this would confirm the score_organic rating already awarded and remove any ambiguity about the certification status.

  • 4

    Offer a subscription option with a clear cancel-anytime policy — this would increase score_subscription_flex from 2 to 4 points and improve the consumer experience score.
