Questions, answered plainly.

100% Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) fruiting body extract, grown on Tasmanian oak hardwood sawdust and Australian soya husk (Master’s Mix). No starch, mycelium, grain or other fillers are added.

Fruiting body only. Many powders are grown on grain and include mycelium and leftover grain. Ours is grown on Tasmanian oak hardwood sawdust and Australian soya husk, and only the fruiting bodies go into the extract.

Mushroom powder is the whole mushroom, dried and ground. Extract powder goes through an extraction step first, then is dried. Ours is freeze-dried at −82 °C, then extracted with hot water and ethanol.

The extraction ratio tells you how much raw mushroom went into each unit of extract. It is not a measure of strength. Our extract is 10:1, and around 4 kg of fresh Lion’s Mane goes into 100 g of powder. See the product.

Powder: 50 g, 75 g, 150 g, 300 g and 1.2 kg. Capsules: 60 and 120-capsule bottles. Every size uses the same 10:1 extract.

On our own farm in Thomastown, Victoria. We grow and hand-harvest it in controlled rooms, then the fruiting bodies are freeze-dried and dual-extracted into our 10:1 extract. Meet the farm and founder.
