    Mushrooms: Health benefits and how to add them to diet

    Neither a veggie, nor a fruit - these delicious tiny toys actually belong to the fungi kingdom. But, mushrooms are great for health. A fun fact: Not all mushrooms are edible. The edible ones, though, are super healthy. Here are top five benefits of eating mushrooms, and how you can add more of them to your daily diet.

    Mushrooms can help improve your heart health

    Mushrooms are a storehouse of nutrition. Fiber, potassium, and Vitamin C present in mushrooms are all great for your cardiovascular health. Additionally, the high potassium-low sodium combination is responsible in regulating your blood pressure levels. What's more? The beta-glucans in mushrooms can help lower your cholesterol levels. So for better heart health, and controlled blood pressure levels, make mushrooms for dinner today!

    Mushrooms can help prevent anemia

    Caused due to low levels of iron in blood, anemia can lead to a number of health problems like fatigue, headaches, reduced neural function, and digestive issues, among others. However, mushrooms, that are naturally rich in iron and copper, can help prevent anemia. To keep functioning at your full potential, make mushrooms a part of your diet and don't let go of them.

    Put your faith in mushrooms for stronger bones

    Mushrooms contain decent amounts of calcium, a nutrient that is essential for healthy formation, and strengthening of our bones. Thus by contributing to your long-term bone health, mushrooms can help you stay away from serious orthopedic issues like osteoporosis, joint pains, and general difficulty in mobility caused due to aging. So, in order to keep your limbs running, put your faith in mushrooms.

    Mushrooms can help improve your skin and hair health

    It is important to eat healthy for good skin and hair health. You must know that the selenium in mushrooms improves skin elasticity, while polysaccharides help keep your skin hydrated and supple. A number of studies have also shown that mushrooms can help cure acne, rosacea and other skin-related problems. So, if you wish to stay young, toss some mushrooms in your plate.

    They can also reduce risk of diabetes

    Mushrooms are an ideal food choice for diabetics as they have zero fats and cholesterol. Further, they are low on carbohydrates, high in protein, and contain plenty of vitamins, minerals, water, and fiber. Additionally, the natural presence of antibiotics is also a boon for diabetes patients. So god forbid, if you ever become diabetic, you know where to seek help from.

    Here's how to add more mushrooms to your diet

    Mushrooms are versatile and easy to prepare. You can conveniently add them to your salads, soups, veggies, pizzas, and other preparations like curries and even parathas. To reap these amazing health benefits, start adding more and more mushrooms to your diet.
