Can I take Lions mane and Matcha together?

Why this happens

Lion's Mane is thought to stimulate 'nerve growth factor' (NGF) to support brain health, while matcha contains caffeine and L-theanine which improve alertness and focus. There is no evidence that they interfere with how the body absorbs or breaks down the other.

What you should do

It is generally safe to take these together. If you are sensitive to caffeine, monitor for jitters or a racing heart. If you have an upcoming surgery, stop taking Lion's Mane at least two weeks prior as it may slightly thin the blood.
