The role and efficacy of mushrooms, mushrooms are common foods in our daily life, not only edible, but also have certain pharmacological and biochemical functions and medical and health care values according to scientific experiments. Let's look at the function and efficacy of mushrooms.

Function and efficacy of mushrooms 1 1, improve the body's immunity: the effective components of mushrooms can enhance the function of T lymphocytes, thus improving the body's immunity to various diseases.

2. Analgesia and sedation: A substance extracted from agaricus blazei murill has analgesic and sedative effects, and it is said that its analgesic effect can be replaced.

3. Cough relieving and expectorant: The mushroom extract was used in animal experiments and found to have obvious antitussive and expectorant effects.

4, laxative detoxification: mushrooms contain crude fiber, semi-crude fiber and lignin that are difficult for human body to digest, which can maintain the balance of intestinal water, and can also absorb the remaining cholesterol and sugar and excrete them, which is very beneficial to prevent constipation, intestinal cancer, arteriosclerosis and diabetes.

5, mushrooms contain tyrosinase, which has obvious antihypertensive effect.

Nutritional value of mushrooms

The content of protein in mushrooms is over 30%, and the content of vitamin C in fresh mushrooms is as high as 206 and 28 mg per100g, and the carotene in mushrooms can be converted into vitamin A, so mushrooms are also called "vitamin A treasure house". Some mushrooms contain more cellulose than ordinary vegetables, which can effectively prevent constipation.

Different from other fruits and vegetables, mushrooms are rich in vitamin D, which is good for bone health. Ultraviolet rays in sunlight are an important substance to promote mushrooms to produce vitamin D, regardless of whether they are picked mushrooms or not. In summer, the price of ultraviolet rays is strong, so you can choose to dry mushrooms from 10 to 3 pm, which is enough for one hour. This can increase the content of vitamin D in mushrooms.

Function and efficacy of mushrooms 2 efficacy

1, increase appetite

Mushrooms have a unique flavor, especially after special cooking, which is very suitable for patients with poor appetite. Proper consumption in daily life can stimulate appetite.

2, cathartic detoxification

Mushrooms contain a lot of crude fiber, hemicellulose, lignin and other substances that are difficult to digest in the gastrointestinal tract. After eating, they can not only absorb a lot of water and expand, increase the humidity of food residues, but also stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis, which has the effect of moistening the intestines and relaxing the bowels. It is very suitable for intestinal patients such as constipation and intestinal cancer.

3. Sedation and analgesia

Mushrooms contain analgesic and sedative ingredients, and many drugs are made of fungi. Many mushrooms contain this active ingredient, and edible mushrooms also have a certain calming effect, and its effect can even be replaced.

4, cough and phlegm

Some mushrooms contain antitussive and expectorant active substances, among which Ganoderma lucidum and Lentinus edodes have the best effect. In fact, most edible mushrooms have antitussive effect, and eating mushrooms when coughing can play an auxiliary therapeutic role.

5, improve immunity

Protein content in mushrooms is extremely high, and it also contains a variety of active amino acids, especially some essential amino acids that cannot be synthesized by human body. After eating, it can promote the synthesis of protein in vivo, especially the synthesis of synthetic immune proteins, and enhance immunity.

Step 6 supplement calcium

Although vitamin D is one of the vitamins that can be synthesized by human body, many people are relatively deficient in vitamin D because they are in wards or indoors for a long time, and many mushrooms contain vitamin D. Eating mushrooms can supplement and promote the absorption of calcium.

7. Lose weight.

The calorie content in mushrooms is extremely low. 100g Mushrooms contain about 20 calories, which is a low-energy food, and the protein content in mushrooms is very high, which is very suitable for people who lose weight.

Function and efficacy of mushrooms 3 pharmacological effects

1, antibacterial effect

Mushroom culture medium (cultured at 28 ~ 30℃ for 22 days) has inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi and Escherichia coli. This culture medium is non-toxic to guinea pigs, and there is no side effect when people take 250 ml orally.

The juice of AgaricusnebularisBatsch can still inhibit Mycobacterium and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

2. Other functions

Its extract (extracted with ethanol for 24 hours, mixed with acetone to precipitate filtrate, then extracted with ethanol and dried in vacuum) has hypoglycemic effect. A non-specific phytohemagglutinin was isolated from mushrooms.

clinical application

Jinshu powder: 750g of Lentinus edodes (processed with wine), 30g of papaya, 30g of Rhizoma Cibotii, 30g of Radix Dipsaci, 0/5g of mistletoe/kloc-,0/0g of Angelica sinensis/kloc-,0/0g of Chuanxiong/kloc-,5g of Eucommia ulmoides (charcoal) and 0/0g of Lycium barbarum.

This product is brownish yellow to light yellow powder with a slightly bitter taste.

Microscopic characteristics: spores are light yellow, oblong or oval, 7- 14μm long and smooth. Calcium oxalate cluster crystals are about 45μm in diameter and exist in light brown shriveled parenchyma cells, and the number is constant and arranged in rows.

Calcium oxalate sand crystals exist in parenchyma cells, and rubber filaments are strip-shaped or twisted into spheres with granular surfaces. The unit holes of the trapezoidal tube are arranged neatly.

Thin-walled cells are spindle-shaped, with slightly thicker walls and extremely fine diagonal interlaced textures.

The phloem fibers are mostly in bundles, light yellow, with a diameter of 16-42μm, extremely thick walls, round, rectangular or polygonal stone cells, thick walls, orange-red or brown substances in the cell cavity, light yellow stone cells in the seed coat, wavy walls, vertical bends and sometimes brown substances.

There is golden yellow secretion in the catheter, with a diameter of about 30 μ m. It has the functions of relaxing muscles and tendons, promoting blood circulation and tonifying liver and kidney.

Used for arthralgia due to wind-cold-dampness, lumbocrural pain, numbness and contracture of hands and feet. Take 9 grams orally, twice a day. (People's Republic of China (PRC) Pharmacopoeia 1977)
