Hericium erinaceus mushroom, containing low-molecular-weight diterpenoids: hericenones (from fruiting bodies) and erinacines (from mycelium). These compounds cross the blood-brain barrier and stimulate the synthesis of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), promoting neurogenesis, remyelination, and synaptic plasticity.
