Lion's mane mushrooms are also known as hou tou gu in Traditional Chinese Medicine. When it comes to mushrooms, the fruit body has several benefits, but there are also several benefits to mycelium, and the combination is highly complementary. This is why our organic mushrooms are a full-spectrum product, containing the benefits of fruit body and mycelium. A great example of this is seen with Lion’s Mane. Two major compounds found in Lion’s Mane are Hericenones and Erinacines – Hericenones are found primarily in the fruit body, and Erinacines are found primarily in the mycelium.
