A mushroom is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil or its food source. They come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, with some being edible and nutritious, while others are highly toxic or hallucinogenic. Mushrooms have diverse uses across culinary, medicinal, and industrial domains. In cooking, edible varieties like button, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms are prized for their umami flavor, meaty texture, and nutritional benefits, being rich in protein, fiber, vitamins (B and D), and antioxidants.
One of the primary factors propelling the mushroom market is the increasing awareness of their nutritional and medicinal properties. Mushrooms are low in calories yet rich in protein, fiber, vitamins (B and D), and essential minerals (selenium, potassium, and copper). They also contain bioactive compounds such as beta-glucans, antioxidants, and polysaccharides, which support immune function, reduce inflammation, and may help prevent chronic diseases like cancer and diabetes.
