Mushrooms have been an integral part of Polish cuisine for a long time, present in both fresh and dried form. Several traditional dishes cannot do without them, such as pierogi, croquettes. There are many enthusiasts of forest mushrooms, although there are also those who prefer cultivated mushrooms. The market offers something for every taste. For some time, there have also been imported mushrooms from Asia, allowing for the discovery of new flavors. Nevertheless, Poles consume much less mushrooms than the inhabitants of the Netherlands or Japan. Do mushrooms have any other benefits besides their taste? The answer to this question can be found in the following article.

Grzyby – korzyści zdrowotne i wartości odżywcze, o których warto wiedzieć

Pierwszą istotną cechą grzybów jest ich niska kaloryczność – poniżej 50 kcal na 100 g świeżego produktu, co wynika przede wszystkim z wysokiej zawartości wody. Dzięki temu stanowią one doskonałe uzupełnienie diety redukcyjnej. Są również cennym źródłem błonnika pokarmowego, który – choć może powodować trudności trawienne u osób z wrażliwym układem pokarmowym – pomaga zaspokoić dzienne zapotrzebowanie na ten składnik. Wśród frakcji błonnika wyróżniamy celulozę, ligniny, chitynę, chitozan oraz β-glukany, które wykazują działanie obniżające poziom cholesterolu, przeciwnowotworowe oraz wzmacniające odporność. Szczególnie wartościowe są β-glukany obecne w boczniakach ostrygowych, wykorzystywane w terapiach wspomagających leczenie nowotworów w Azji. Grzyby zawierają także minimalne ilości cukrów prostych, co czyni je odpowiednimi dla osób na diecie niskocukrowej, oraz niewielkie ilości tłuszczu, głównie nienasyconych kwasów tłuszczowych. Ich prawdziwą wartość stanowią jednak rozpuszczone w tłuszczu substancje bioaktywne, takie jak witamina D (100 g grzybów pokrywa całkowite dzienne zapotrzebowanie) oraz karotenoidy – beta-karoten i likopen, których stężenie jest porównywalne z tym w pomidorach czy papryce. Dlatego też grzyby powinny znaleźć się w diecie osób z osteopenią, osteoporozą oraz problemami kostnymi. Ponadto, dzięki zawartości przeciwutleniaczy, wspierają utrzymanie młodego i zdrowego wyglądu skóry. Choć białko grzybowe jest niepełnowartościowe (brakuje w nim aminokwasów takich jak cysteina, izoleucyna czy metionina), jego wartość biologiczna przewyższa białko większości roślin. Dodatkowym atutem jest obecność kwasu α-aminomasłowego (GABA) – kluczowego neuroprzekaźnika – oraz ornityny, biorącej udział w procesach detoksykacyjnych organizmu. Badania nad boczniakiem ostrygowatym i twardziakiem jadalnym wykazały, że zawierają one funkcjonalne białka o działaniu przeciwzapalnym, przeciwbakteryjnym i przeciwnowotworowym. Grzyby, dzięki wysokiej zawartości minerałów, wykazują właściwości alkalizujące, co czyni je elementem diety odkwaszającej, polecanej również przy nadciśnieniu tętniczym. Są bogatym źródłem witamin z grupy B (B1, B2, B3), których zawartość przewyższa nawet mięso i przetwory mleczne, a także minerałów takich jak magnez, wapń, siarka, mangan, chrom, żelazo i kobalt. Ponadto, obecność antyoksydantów sprawia, że regularne spożywanie grzybów może przyczynić się do redukcji stanów zapalnych. Nie bez znaczenia jest również ich wpływ na smak potraw – grzyby zawierają związki aromatyczne oraz substancje odpowiadające za piąty smak, umami, co jest szczególnie istotne w diecie ubogiej w sól, gdzie eliminacja soli nie musi oznaczać utraty smaku.

Niekorzystne właściwości grzybów: zagrożenia i ryzyko zdrowotne związane ze spożyciem

Najpowszechniejszym niebezpieczeństwem związanym z konsumpcją grzybów pozostają ostre zatrucia pokarmowe, które dotykają przede wszystkim osoby oraz całe rodziny nieposiadające wystarczającej wiedzy na temat identyfikacji gatunków leśnych. Tylko odmiany trujące oraz niejadalne mogą wywołać poważne zaburzenia zdrowotne, podczas gdy zakup produktów z kontrolowanych upraw lub od zaufanych dostawców leśnych minimalizuje to ryzyko do absolutnego minimum.
