Aloha Medicinals, a premium ingredient supplier in the dietary supplement and functional food sectors, has launched FungiFuse — a new portfolio of functional mushroom solutions designed to help brands formulate products without compromising on taste, colour, or mouthfeel. The formal introduction of this new range is planned at the IFT FIRST Annual Event & Expo.
Aloha Medicinals' functional mushroom solutions portfolio addresses a common industry challenge by offering highly soluble, neutral-flavoured mushroom ingredients that integrate seamlessly into applications such as ready-to-drink beverages, functional shots, powdered drink mixes, bars, and dietary supplements. The brand's initial batch includes four targeted blends. The first is called Focus with Lion's Mane, Cordyceps, and Chaga for cognitive support. The secnd is Energy with Cordyceps, Shiitake, and Lion's Mane for sustained vitality. The Daily option boasts a seven-mushroom blend rich in beta-glucans for immune and overall wellness, while the Relax with Reishi, Maitake, and Turkey Tail delivers stress management and recovery.
The ingredients are available in Organic and Non-GMO options, are DNA-verified, and contain no carriers or fillers.
