Full Spectrum (Whole-Lifecycle) Maitake Mushroom Powder • Certified Organic • Canadian Grown
Our Organic Maitake Mushroom Powder is produced from certified organic Maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa) cultivated in Canada. This full-spectrum (whole-lifecycle) fungal ingredient includes the fruiting body, mycelium, and naturally occurring extracellular compounds formed throughout cultivation.
Unlike Maitake extract powders that concentrate selected compounds, this is a raw, non-extracted Maitake mushroom powder that reflects the complete fungal lifecycle.
Finely milled and easy to incorporate into recipes and beverages, this versatile powder can be blended into soups, sauces, smoothies, teas, and other culinary preparations.
