Beneficial features
The health benefits of champignon mushrooms are provided by their chemical composition.
Group B
Vitamin B group takes an active part in human life:
- B2 is a participant in oxidation-reduction processes, acts as a regulator of the perception of the color gamut by the visual organs, provides dark adaptation, its lack affects the quality of the skin and mucous membranes, impairs the quality of the visual perception of light and twilight,
- B5 takes part in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, fats and cholesterol, synthesizes hormones and hemoglobin, affects the quality of digestibility of the intestinal tract of amino acids and saccharides, supports the adrenal glands, its lack causes a change in the integrity of the skin epithelium and mucous membranes.
Vitamin PP
Mushrooms contain vitamins necessary for humans
The vitamin component of PP takes part in the energy and metabolic process, its lack causes a change in the qualitative characteristics of the skin epithelium, destabilization of the gastrointestinal tract and cells of the nervous system.
Potassium
Potassium acts as the main intracellular ion involved in regulating the balance of acid, water and electrolytes, serves as a conductor of nerve impulses and regulates blood pressure.
Phosphorus
Phosphorus is a participant in most physiological processes, among which are energy metabolism and acid-base balance. It is present in the composition of nucleic acid and phospholipids needed in the mineral supply of bone tissue and tooth enamel.
Iodine
Iodine is an indispensable element for the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. It organizes the process of hormonal formation: thyroxine and triiodothyronine, which are necessary in the process of cell growth and development, which is important for mitochondrial respiration and the regulation of the transport of sodium and hormones. Its deficiency leads to a slowdown in the metabolic process, a delay in development and growth.
Cobalt
The cobalt content activates the metabolism of fatty acids and folic acid.
Chromium
The presence of chromium makes it possible to regulate glucose indicators in the blood, causing an increase in insulin exposure. Its deficiency lowers glucose susceptibility.
Conclusion
The chemical composition of champignons includes proteins, fats, carbohydrates and a set of vitamin-mineral components that are beneficial to human health. The main caloric value of raw mushrooms is 27 kcal per 100 g and varies, depending on the method of preparation.
