Introduction to Trichomycetes edulis
Mushrooms belong to the phylum Fungi, order Basidiomycota, order Agaricaceae, genus Agaricus, and scientific name Agaricus bisp (Dange) Sing in plant taxonomy. Mushrooms are composed of two parts: mycelium and fruiting body. The mycelium is the nutrient organ, while the fruiting body is the reproductive organ.
The mature spores germinate into hyphae (which are also produced by vegetative bodies). The hyphae are multicellular with transverse septa, elongated by growing from the top, white, slender, and hairy, gradually becoming filamentous. The hyphae combine with each other to form a dense population, which is called a mycelium. After the mycelium saprophytes, the thick brown culture medium turns into a light brown color.
Mycelia can be divided into two types: those that infiltrate the culture medium or soil are called basal hyphae; The mycelium distributed on the soil surface is called aerial mycelium or aerial mycelium. The fruiting body of a mushroom looks like an open umbrella when it matures. Composed of cap, stem, gills, ring, and false mycorrhizal fungi.
1. Improving the body's immunity
The effective ingredients of mushrooms can enhance T lymphocyte function, thereby improving the body's immune function against various diseases.
.
2. Analgesia and Sedation
A Brazilian research institute has extracted a substance called Act-2 from mushrooms, which has analgesic and sedative effects and can replace morphine in its analgesic effect.
.
3. Cough Relief and Phlegm Reduction
Mushroom extract was used in animal experiments and found to have significant cough suppressing and phlegm reducing effects.
.4. Anti cancer
Japanese researchers have analyzed a super strong anti-cancer substance with a molecular weight of 288 in the active ingredients of mushrooms, which can inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Its effect is 1000 times stronger than the anti-cancer substance in green tea.
. Mushrooms also contain a toxic protein that can effectively prevent protein synthesis in cancer cells.5. Detoxification and defecation
Mushrooms contain crude fiber, semi crude fiber, and lignin that are difficult for the human body to digest. They can maintain intestinal moisture, absorb remaining cholesterol and sugar, and excrete them from the body, which helps prevent constipation, colon cancer, and arteriosclerosis.
. Diabetes is very beneficial.
