Lion's Mane Mushroom, scientifically known as Hericium erinaceus, is a unique and fascinating ingredient that has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese medicine. The scientific name "Hericium erinaceus" originates from the Latin word "hericius," meaning hedgehog or sea urchin, and "erinaceus," referring to a hedgehog. This name accurately describes the spiky appearance of Lion's Mane Mushroom.
