This week's Spotlight: Portobello Mushrooms
Why are portobello mushrooms so good for you?
They are low in calories and are a good source of 15 different vitamins, minerals and antioxidant phytonutrients including copper, selenium and B vitamins. The phytonutrients found in mushrooms provide a powerful immune boost by charging up our white blood cells, making them a nutritious addition to any diet. Mushrooms also contain high amounts of antioxidants which can help reduce inflammation, and improve cardiovascular health. These mushrooms have anticancer, mental, and intestinal benefits. Bonus, they are a great substitute for meat.
