Health Notes with Dr. Liz
A Fungus Among Us!
A misfit in the produce section, portabella mushrooms, like other mushrooms, are a fungus rather than a fruit or vegetable. Despite this seemingly subversive identity, portabella mushrooms supply a wealth of nutrients besides adding a savory flavor to a variety of dishes.
- Calorie bargain: One cup sliced portabella mushrooms contain a mere 40 calories while supplying over 10 percent of fiber needs and about 20 percent of potassium, a mineral that helps maintain healthy blood pressure.
- Mineral might: A serving of portabellas supplies almost 20 percent each of the minerals selenium and copper. These trace minerals, which may be in short supply in our diets if we don’t eat well, play important roles in body-cell protection against cancer and other age-related changes that may lead to disease.
- Anti-oxidant boost: Like many vegetables and fruits, fungi also contain compounds called anti-oxidants that help protect the body from damage that occurs with UV light, air pollution and day-to-day wear and tear that occurs inside body cells. Portabella mushrooms contain ergothioneine, an anti-oxidant that may help reduce risk for certain cancers .
- Savory uses: Portabellas, thanks to their “meaty” texture, can be served grilled, sautéed, baked or broiled as a main dish (serve grilled slices in a sandwich instead of beef or other meats.) Add sautéed slices to pasta, casseroles and salads. Select firm portabellas without any wet or soggy spots. Store in a paper bag refrigerated for up to a week.
