How to eat mushrooms so that they are not hard to digest?

Mushrooms, even though they are low in calories (90% water), are hard to digest. The fungal cell walls contain chitin. It is a polysaccharide that resembles cellulose but is not digested by the human stomach. In addition, mushrooms contain a lot of protein that is poorly dissolved by stomach acids.

For this reason, it is recommended to stew mushrooms only in their own sauce, and not in other, often difficult to digest, sauce. It is the sauces that contain cream, roux and too fewherbs that aid digestion,such as rosemary, thyme, marjoram, savory, cumin and juniper that make mushrooms even more difficult to digest. It is also difficult to digest a dish in which braised mushrooms are added to the meat.

RECIPE FOR TRUE SOUP WITH ROSEMARY

The safest way to eat mushrooms has been heat-treated (preferably by boiling it for about 30 minutes). Mushrooms can also be fried. It is not recommended to eat mushrooms that are grilled over a fire or fried in a baking tray, as they burn quickly while remaining raw inside. And raw mushrooms can contain dangerous toxins that can cause more serious digestive problems.

Do not mix mushrooms with alcohol!

You should not combine mushrooms with alcohol, because it cuts the protein of the fungus in the stomach, which becomes even more resistant to digestive juices, and thus - remains in the stomach for even longer.

The most dangerous thing is to drink alcohol right after eating black pepper. This fungus contains coparine - a substance that stops the process of decomposition of ethyl alcohol in the body, which is a threat to he alth and even life.

It is not recommended to consume alcoholic beverages, as well as medicines containing alcohol, about 2 days before and about 3 days after consuming mushrooms.

Who should give up the mushrooms?

  • people allergic to mushrooms
  • people struggling with kidney and liver diseases
  • people struggling with diseases of the digestive system
  • elderly people
  • pregnant and lactating women

Mushrooms should not be given to children!

General recommendations are that mushrooms should not be given to children under 3 years of age. However, some specialists believe that this age limit should be pushed back to nine or even twelve. It is supposed that children's livers are not able to digest compounds that are contained in mushrooms. In addition, mushrooms do not contain enough essential nutrients, such as vitamins, to meet the needs of developing children. Therefore, it makes no sense to include mushrooms in your child's diet.
