The healthiest mushrooms have been named: they should be added to the diet

Mushrooms are not only a delicious product that can be used to prepare many different dishes, but also a truly healthy food. The main thing is to choose the ones that will have a positive effect on the body among a large number of species. Therefore, in the fall, you should take advantage of the opportunity to cook fresh mushrooms.

On her Instagram page, doctor_galuna_pokhmyrska explains which mushrooms are useful and why.

The expert notes that mushrooms are called forest bread because of their chemical composition. They contain all the necessary substances: fats, carbohydrates, proteins, mineral salts, vitamins, and are considered low-calorie. Even a small amount makes you feel full. Mushrooms contain 18 amino acids, 8 of which are essential (they come only from food because they are not produced in the body).

Chopped mushrooms cooked with other vegetables or herbs are better digested.

The 3 most useful types of mushrooms

Chanterelles

Rich in vitamins B1 and PP, they have a positive effect on liver health. They should be eaten in case of fatigue, vitamin deficiency, and sciatica. If you buy chanterelles in powder form, they are an excellent remedy against parasites.

Champignons

They contain 18 amino acids (out of the known 22), and a high content of phosphorus, potassium, iodine, zinc, vitamins C, D, E, and B.

They regulate blood pressure, cleanse the body, improve memory, and do not contain fat or sugar.

Porcini mushrooms

They contain a lot of vitamin PP, which strengthens the walls of the heart. This mushroom contains zinc, iodine, and iron. They help to restore strength and strengthen the immune system. Porcini mushrooms contain ergothioneine, which is not found anywhere else. This substance prevents the brain from aging and keeps the mind clear in old age.
