The Power of Mushrooms

Natural Phenomenon

We have only begun to unravel the naturally occurring phenomenon behind the power of mushrooms. Mushrooms naturally produce a bounty of vitamins, minerals, and compounds just waiting to be discovered. Closer evaluation makes it is easy to quantify that naturally grown mushrooms are directly related to a healthy lifestyle. There is no doubt that mushrooms are the most powerful vegetable to put you on the right track towards better health. Adding mushrooms to your diet will provide plenty of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants not found in other vegetables.

Vitamins and Minerals

The largest factor to affect the genetic biology of mushrooms is the cultivation method. Mushrooms that are grown in low light conditions provide nutrition but produce little to no additional health benefits. Mushrooms forged from nature and exposed to the ultra-violet rays of the sun will possess the most health benefits. Also, the amount of vitamins, minerals, and compounds found in mushrooms will vary slightly by species. Mushrooms can possess calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, manganese, selenium, thiamin, niacin, vitamin B-6, biotin, folate, nitrogen, and more. Plus, mushrooms are made of roughly 85% water. Take into consideration the unusual level of antioxidants that mushrooms provide and the facts become clear. Mushrooms are really good for you!

Revolutionary Fashion

The science community has decided to further evaluate some of mushroom’s healing claims made by ancient cultures. What they are finding is simply astonishing. Mushrooms are not only one of the healthiest foods on the market as science has discovered that mycelium has many practical uses. Mylo, a leather-like product made from mycelium, is being used by huge fashion brands to create environmentally friendly clothing and accessories.

Brands such as Stella McCartney, lululemon, and Kering have partnered with Mylo to create high-end fashion using a product created by nature, mycelium. Adidas launched the first Stan Smith’s made from mycelium (Mylo) and Hermès is planning the launch of a new hand bag made from Mylo. In another ground breaking scientific discovery, mycelium is turned into biodegradable product packaging. This revolutionary packaging breaks down rapidly when returned to nature and is a promising solution to replace non-recyclable Styrofoam. Scientific analysis of mushrooms has gone far beyond vitamins, minerals, and compounds. Within one organism scientists have unlocked two key mysteries of nature, mushrooms and mycelium.

Lack of Data

Mushrooms have not been subjected same type of rigorous study as modern medicine so real data is lacking. Despite the plethora of health benefits, there is no proof that mushrooms can cure anything more than hunger. But it is safe to conclude that mushrooms pack more power and provide more benefits than any vegetable. Pound for pound, if you are striving for a healthier lifestyle than mushrooms should definitely be part of your diet.
