Reviewing the world's edible mushroom species: A new evidence‐based classification system

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 20(2), P. 1982 - 2014

Published: Feb. 18, 2021

Abstract Wild mushrooms are a vital source of income and nutrition for many poor communities value to recreational foragers. Literature relating the edibility mushroom species continues expand, driven by an increasing demand wild mushrooms, wider interest in foraging, study traditional foods. Although numerous case reports have been published on edible doubt confusion persist regarding which safe suitable consume. Case often differ, evidence supporting stated properties can be incomplete or ambiguous. The need greater clarity is further underlined increases mushroom‐related poisonings. We propose system categorizing assigning final status. Using this system, we reviewed 2,786 from 99 countries, accessing 9,783 reports, over 1,100 sources. identified 2,189 species, 2,006 consumed safely, 183 required some form pretreatment prior consumption were associated with allergic reactions some. 471 uncertain because missing consumption, 76 unconfirmed unresolved, differing opinions toxicity. This most comprehensive list available date, demonstrating huge number consumed. Our review highlights information clash present clear, unambiguous, consistent manner.

Macrofungi as a Nutraceutical Source: Promising Bioactive Compounds and Market Value

Journal of Fungi, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 7(5), P. 397 - 397

Published: May 19, 2021

Macrofungi production and economic value have been increasing globally. The demand for macrofungi has expanded rapidly owing to their popularity among consumers, pleasant taste, unique flavors. presence of high quality proteins, polysaccharides, unsaturated fatty acids, minerals, triterpene sterols, secondary metabolites makes an important commodity. are well known ability protect from or cure various health problems, such as immunodeficiency, cancer, inflammation, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, obesity. Many studies demonstrated medicinal properties, supported by both in vivo vitro experimental studies, clinical trials. Numerous bioactive compounds isolated mushrooms, fats, phenolic compounds, vitamins, possess strong bioactivities. Consequently, they can be considered source nutraceuticals. edible mushrooms studied bioactivities, but only a few species made it the market. remain explored. converging trends eastern herbal medicines, natural/organic food product preference, gut-healthy products, positive outlook towards sports nutrition supporting growth mushroom consumption functional dietary supplement is expected markedly increase future. global market size projected USD 13.88 billion 2018 2022. values promising lentinan lovastatin, also rise.

Abstract Fungi provide ecological and environmental services to humans, as well health nutritional benefits, are vital numerous industries. Fermented food beverage products from fungi circulating in the market, generating billions of USD. However, highest potential monetary value is their role blue carbon trading because ability sequester large amounts soil. There no conclusive estimates available on global fungi, primarily there limited data for extrapolation. This study outlines contribution economy provides a first attempt at quantifying fungi. Our estimate USD 54.57 trillion starting point that can be analysed improved, highlighting significance providing an appreciation value. paper identifies different economically valuable provided by By giving all important fungal products, services, industrial applications underscores biodiversity conservation.

Edible Mushrooms for Sustainable and Healthy Human Food: Nutritional and Medicinal Attributes

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 14(9), P. 4941 - 4941

Published: April 20, 2022

Global food production faces many challenges, including climate change, a water crisis, land degradation, and desertification. These challenges require research into non-traditional sources of human foods. Edible mushrooms are considered an important next-generation healthy source. rich in proteins, dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, other bioactive components (alkaloids, lactones, polysaccharides, polyphenolic compounds, sesquiterpenes, sterols, terpenoids). Several ingredients can be extracted from edible incorporated health-promoting supplements. It has been suggested that several diseases treated with extracts mushrooms, as these have biological effects anticancer, antidiabetic, antiviral, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, immune-potentiating, hypo-cholesterolemic influences. The current study focuses on sustainable approaches for handling their secondary metabolites, biofortification. Comparisons between poisonous well the common species different ingredients, crucial. Nutritional values health benefits biomedical applications, also emphasized. Further is needed to explore economic sustainability medicinal mushroom compound potential applications against emerging such COVID-19. New nano-biofortification supply essential nutrients and/or increase ingredients.

An Overview on Mushroom Polysaccharides: Health-promoting Properties, Prebiotic and Gut Microbiota Modulation Effects and Structure-function Correlation

Carbohydrate Polymers, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 333, P. 121978 - 121978

Published: Feb. 24, 2024

Mushroom polysaccharides are recognized as "biological response modifiers". Besides several bioactivities, a growing interest in their prebiotic potential has been raised due to the gut microbiota modulation potential. This review comprehensively summarizes mushroom polysaccharides' biological properties, structure-function relationship, and underlying mechanisms. It provides recent overview of key findings field (2018–2024). Key limitations on correlation discussed. Although most studies focus β-glucans or extracts, α-glucans chitin have gained interest. Prebiotic capacity associated with chitin, while antimicrobial wound healing is attributed chitin. However, further research utmost importance. Human fecal fermentation reported approach assess potential, indicating impacts intestinal biological, mechanical, chemical immunological barriers. Gut dysbiosis directly connected intestinal, cardiovascular, metabolic, neurological diseases. Concerning modulation, animal experiments suggested proinflammatory cytokines reduction redox balance re-establishment. Most literature focused anticancer immunomodulatory anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antidiabetic, hypocholesterolemic, antilipidemic, antioxidant, neuroprotective properties A significant gaps directions synergistic effects, mechanisms, correlation, clinical trials scientific data also given.
