The Unknown Healing Power of Mushrooms
| Mushrooms include some of the most powerful natural medicines. Their healing properties are well known in Traditional Chinese medicine and have been used to treat some medical conditions, such as diabetes and high blood pressure. However, you should be careful with mushrooms, as they can be dangerous, as well. Mushrooms are known to have high content of heavy metals and water pollutants, so you should make sure that you consume only organically grown ones.
The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology has recently published a list of the health benefits of mushrooms. Some of those are: 1. Weight control Replacing red meat with white button mushrooms can improve your weight loss results. Mushrooms contain fewer calories and they are rich in Vitamin B and many other nutrients. Their texture makes them a delicious meat alternative for burgers and sandwiches. According to many analyses, mushrooms have the ability to improve the quality of your diet plan. If you are a vegetarian, you should definitely include them in your meals because they are nourishing and rich in essential vitamins and minerals. 3. Increase Vitamin D levels Light-exposed mushrooms generate Vitamin D, which means that in fresh condition, they have high content of the essential vitamin, known to fight against cancer and maintain strong bones and teeth. 4. Better immune system function. In a recent study, it was found that shiitake mushrooms have a beneficial effect on immune system functions. Moreover, they activate certain proteins and cells that fight against cancer.
