The product uses fruiting body Lion's Mane, which scores the maximum 4 points for source type. The extraction method is whole powder, which scores 0 points, as no extraction process is publicly disclosed. The beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, so no points can be awarded for potency. The serving size of 2,000mg meets the 1,000mg threshold and scores 2 points for dose adequacy.
The brand publicly states it uses fruiting body material, which scores 2 points for source disclosure. No COA is publicly available, the beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed, the extraction method is not stated, and the country of origin is not publicly disclosed. Three or more core fields are missing, so a penalty of 1 point applies, resulting in a raw transparency score of 1 out of 9 before normalisation.
Cost per 100mg beta-glucan cannot be calculated because the beta-glucan percentage is not publicly disclosed. The price per serving is approximately £0.30, which falls in the range of £0.21 to £0.40 and would ordinarily score 3 points on a price-per-serving basis. One point is deducted because the active content cannot be verified, giving a value score of 3.0. This score reflects price per serving only.
The product has a Trustpilot score of 4.6 from 520 reviews, which meets the threshold for the maximum 5 points in that sub-dimension. Third-party testing is not publicly disclosed and no COA is available, scoring 0 points for third-party testing. The product is stated as organic certified, but no certification body is named, scoring 1 point rather than 2.
No subscription option is available, which scores a neutral 2 points. The brand offers a 30-day return policy, scoring the maximum 3 points for that sub-dimension. The product ships to the UK but is not confirmed as a UK-based brand, scoring 2 points for UK availability.

Publish a full-panel COA from an ISO 17025-accredited laboratory covering beta-glucans, heavy metals, and microbial contamination — this would add up to 5 points across the transparency and trust dimensions.
Disclose the beta-glucan percentage per serving, verified by a third-party laboratory — this would add up to 4 points to the ingredient quality score and up to 2 points to the transparency score.
State the extraction method publicly on product labelling or the product page — this would add 1 point to the transparency score and up to 2 points to the ingredient quality score.
Disclose the country of origin for the mushroom material — this would add 1 point to the transparency score.
Name the organic certification body that issued the organic status — this would add 1 point to the trust score.
