Mushrooms
Plant-based and flexitarian diets rely on this ingredient in their recipes. It’s good for the environment and for themselves, they provide key vitamins and minerals, and they have some nutritional properties you won’t find in other ingredients!
They provide the necessary amount of vitamin D, selenium (which is a mineral that it’s involved in our immune functioning) and potassium. They also protect our brain and help us reach a healthier weight.
Mushrooms supply a prebiotic fiber that helps your gut reaching a healthier balance, which is essential in the weight management. Also, for our soon-to-be vegetarian friends, they are also a great replacement for meat.
