Lions Mane Powder

Lion's Mane Powder is made from Hericium erinaceus, an edible mushroom with long, white, cascading spines that look like a lion's mane. The dried mushroom is milled into a fine, cream-coloured powder with a mild, slightly sweet and savoury taste. It is one of the most popular functional mushrooms in the world, used in brain wellness supplements, coffee and drink mixes, and foods.

Arizone International supplies Lion's Mane Powder and extract in bulk to supplement brands, functional beverage companies, food manufacturers and private label businesses.

About Lion's Mane

In the wild, lion's mane grows on dead or dying hardwood trees such as oak and beech in North America, Europe and Asia. It has been eaten and used in traditional Chinese and Japanese practice for centuries, where it is known as "hou tou gu" and "yamabushitake". Today, almost all lion's mane is cultivated on sawdust or grain substrates in controlled farms, mainly in China, and increasingly in India, the USA and Europe. It is also cooked as a gourmet mushroom with a texture similar to crab or lobster.
