Mushrooms for Health
So this is the latest health fad I have read:
Quote: Eating five mushrooms a day could ward off heart disease, cancer and demential, researchers found.
They are rich in two key antioxidants - ergothioneine and glutathione - that combat ageing.
Prof Robert Beelman of Pennsylvania State University said "mushroms are the highest dietry source of these taken together."
Countries with high consumption, such as Italy and France, were said to have lower rates of conditions such as Alzheimer's.

So now we know. Best eat more mushrooms.
