While working on the wellness book

I have learned that my health has not always been my

priority. I never really watched what I ate and took fore

grated how good it feels to be able to have good health and

the ability to do whatever I want without and physical

restrictions. Taking this class I have been profoundly

influence by the power of a healthy diet, and myresponsibility to take care of myself and also influence the

one I love to enjoy the wonderful world of health eating.

Thank You Prof. Crocker for the lifelong lessons learned

through your positive attitude and energetic personality.

Mushroom Facts

Mushroom Facts Cont.

Although vitamins are also found in many vegetables, they are lost when cooked in boiling water: as mushrooms arerarely prepared with boiling water, they retain their valuable vitamin content when cooked.

Mushrooms contain virtually no salt. Mushrooms are an excellent source of copper, a mineral that the body needs to produce red blood cells and for

other functions.

Mushrooms contain more potassium than most other fruit and vegetables: one medium brown mushroom containsmore potassium than banana. Potassium helps the human body maintain normal heart rhythm, fluid balance, andmuscle and nerve function.

Mushrooms are one of the richest, natural sources of selenium, an essential mineral which strengthens the immunesystem and may help reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic illnesses. Selenium plays an important role in thehuman immune system, the thyroid system, and the male reproductive system.

Mushrooms are a good source of zinc, another essential mineral which helps boost your immune system, as well asyour libido.

The stem of a mushroom is a good source of flavor and nutrients so there is no need to remove it. On the occasionsthat you do need to remove the stem, chop it and add to stuffing, casseroles, soups and sauces.

Mushrooms are best stored unwashed in brown paper bags in the refrigerator, preferably on the lowest shelf. Be careful of wild mushrooms as many of them are poisonous and could be life-threatening. Rather buy your

mushrooms from a reputable grower or grocer than hunting them yourself.
