Study: Mushroom can make your diet more nutritious
Adding a mushroom serving to the diet can increase the intake of several micronutrients, including shortfall nutrients such as vitamin D, without any increase in calories, sodium or fat, a new study suggests.

This was true for the white, cremini and portabella 1:1:1 mix and oyster mushrooms.
“This research validated what we already knew that adding mushrooms to your plate is an effective way to reach the dietary goals identified by the DGA,” said Mary Jo Feeney, nutrition research coordinator to the Mushroom Council in the US, who funded the study.

Dr. Victor L. Fulgoni III and Dr. Sanjiv Agarwal matched the addition of mushrooms in their study to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2016 dietary data.
Their diet looked at a mix of white, cremini, and portabella mushrooms at a 1:1:1 ratio. Two scenarios were considered - one with UV-light exposed mushrooms and one with oyster mushrooms for 9-18 years and 19 plus years of age based on an 84g or ½ cup equivalent serving.
