Have you had your Lion's Mane? Everyone's talking about functional mushrooms
Everyone’s talking about – functional mushrooms
Have you had your Lion’s Mane this morning?
The new must have is a daily dose of functional mushrooms.
It’s all about adding a splash of Lion’s Mane tincture to your morning coffee or popping a capsule ahead of your visit to the gym.
Lion’s Mane – named after its distinctive, mane-like appearance – is packed with bioactive compounds and has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries to support mental clarity, memory and overall wellness.
Scottish functional mushroom guru Smith Feeney has just launched his Love Mushrooms brand into Tesco.
His tinctures and capsules are available for just £9.90 and are on a permanent 3 for 2 promotion with a Tesco Clubcard – which gives functional mushroom fans a great tasting, high quality and affordable product for the first time.
Choose from Lion’s Mane, Cordyceps and Reishi – all are certified organic and suitable for vegans.
Smith, who has his own organic mushroom farm and laboratory in Forres, Scotland, uniquely uses ultrasonic assisted extraction (UAE), which is the most efficient extraction method and preserves the natural compounds to ensure high purity and stronger extracts. His tinctures are the only British made alcohol-free tinctures, which ensures a great taste.
He said: “Lion’s Mane supports the brain and can help with anxiety. Cordyceps is perfect to take instead of a cup of coffee in the morning as it has an energising effect – and it’s also good before exercising, while taking Reishi an hour or two before bed can enhance your sleep.
“I’m fascinated by the benefits of mushrooms and how closely they’re connected to our wellbeing. As humans, we share 50% of our DNA with mushrooms.”
A spokesperson for Tesco said: “We’re delighted to be stocking Love Mushrooms capsules and tinctures in our stores across the UK. They are on offer to our Clubcard customers on a permanent 3 for 2 deal, giving people a high quality and affordable everyday British product.”

About Love Mushrooms
Reishi – for essential balance
Reishi mushrooms have been revered in traditional Eastern medicine for over 2,000 years. Research suggests that compounds found in Reishi, such as triterpenoids, polysaccharides, and beta-glucans, may help support immune function, manage stress, and promote better sleep quality.
Cordyceps – the passion mushroom
Cordyceps are known for their rich content of bioactive compounds, including cordycepin and polysaccharides, traditionally used to support energy levels and enhance physical performance. As an adaptogen, Cordyceps have been historically associated with promoting overall vitality, including sexual health and well-being.
Lion’s Mane – for deep focus
Looking for something natural to support your focus? Lion’s Mane mushrooms are recognised for their distinctive, mane-like appearance, contain compounds such as hericenones, beta-glucans, and erinacines that are traditionally associated with supporting mental clarity, memory and overall wellness.
