About Handful of mushrooms
A handful of mushrooms offers a nutrient-packed addition to any meal, featuring low calories, no fat, and a wealth of vitamins and minerals. Rich in B vitamins like riboflavin, niacin, and pantothenic acid, mushrooms support metabolism and energy production. They're also high in antioxidants, such as selenium, which helps reduce inflammation and supports immune health. Originating from diverse culinary traditions across Asia, Europe, and the Americas, mushrooms are favored for their earthy flavor and meaty texture. While they work wonderfully in stir-fries, soups, and salads, they’re also known for their abundance of dietary fiber, aiding digestion and promoting gut health. Some types, like shiitake and maitake, contain compounds studied for their ability to support heart health. However, caution is advised when foraging, as certain varieties are toxic. Overall, mushrooms are a versatile and healthful choice for a balanced diet.
