There’s a published human clinical trial on this exact ingredient — the gold standard, and rare in this industry.
Logic Lion’s Mane — the only one of ours here today.
About Of The Ancients
Est. 2023 · San Antonio, Texas
What the ancients
knew, held up
to the light.
We make whole-plant liquid extracts from the parts that actually matter — and we always tell you how strong the evidence behind each one really is.
Our Standard
Six things every formula has to earn.
This is what “high quality” means here. It doesn’t change from product to product.
-
1
The real part of the plant
Lion’s mane means 100% fruiting body — never mycelium grown on grain. Turmeric means the whole Curcuma longa root. We use the part each plant is actually known for.
-
2
Liquid, never a pill
Every formula is a tincture. A few drops in water, tea, or coffee. No capsules, no chalky powders, no fillers or binders to swallow around.
-
3
Short ingredient lists
Golden Turmeric is three ingredients. If a label needs a chemistry degree to read, it isn’t ours.
-
4
Made in one place, to one standard
Every bottle comes from the same FDA-registered, NSF GMP facility here in the United States.
-
5
Tested before it reaches you
Independent ISO-accredited labs check every batch for heavy metals, pesticides, microbials, and potency — ingredient by ingredient.

Read by real practitioners
Doctors, PhDs, and nurses review each formula against the published research. Their write-ups are public.
How We Prove It
Some plants have clinical trials. Some have centuries.
Most brands blur the difference. We label it, plainly, on every formula — so you always know exactly what you’re buying.
Strong published human research on the plant itself, though not on our exact preparation. We’ll say so rather than round up.
No formula sits here yet.
Centuries of documented traditional use, and we call it exactly that — a long human history, not a clinical claim.
Golden Turmeric Root — used across India and Southeast Asia for thousands of years.
Clinically Studied
Meet Logic.
Our Lion’s Mane tincture — and the one formula with a human trial behind its exact ingredient.
Logic is built on MycoThrive™ — 100% organic lion’s mane fruiting bodies grown in Finland, standardized so every serving carries the same amount of the active compounds.

In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, a single dose of the standardized extract improved attention, working memory, and reaction time within 60 to 120 minutes.† Logic delivers 970 mg of that same ingredient daily, in liquid form.†

Founder
Anthony Gucciardi
“I was never chasing a miracle. I just wanted to feel like myself again.
The search
A years-long health crisis in his twenties sent Anthony past the marketing and into the medical literature, comparing published research against the natural compounds that actually held up. Fifteen years working alongside doctors, PhD formulators, and the manufacturers behind brands in Whole Foods, Vitamin Shoppe, and GNC led him to one conclusion: a handful of plants are worth taking seriously, and most of this industry isn’t.
The fog
Years later, a spinal injury serious enough to threaten permanent disability led to fusion surgery and a long run of procedures. The recovery took something he hadn’t expected it to take: his clarity.
Months of mental fog — the kind where you read the same paragraph three times. That stretch is why clarity became this company’s first problem to work on, and why what we’re building reaches well beyond it.
No Of The Ancients product is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, or to aid recovery from surgery or injury.
