Mushrooms are an everyday food for me. Here are a few reason why...
- They are high in vegetable proteins and low in calories, making
them a valuable source of healthy nutrition.
- They contain zinc,
iron, chitin, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. Mushrooms are also high in amino acids, nicotinic acid,
riboflavin, vitamins B, C, and K, and pantothenic acid.
- Not only are
mushrooms a healthy addition to the diet, they also have important
medicinal properties. Traditional Chinese Medicine has used
mushrooms for thousands of years. There are over 200 species of
mushrooms in China that are used to practice healing. An amazing 25
percent of these mushrooms are credited with tumor-fighting
capabilities.
- All varieties of mushrooms possess cleansing
capabilities. Mushrooms contain a substance called Germanium. Germanium
is a nutrient that helps boost the oxygen efficiency within the body.
Germanium also helps counteract the body's exposure to environmental
toxins and helps to increase the body's ability to fight disease.

| Shiitake |
Shiitakes are among the best mushrooms nutritionally speaking, Reishi, Enoki and Cordyceps are good as well. Steer clear of cultivated white button mushrooms.
