Mushrooms.

The healthy all-rounder.

At different times of the day, in different
seasons of the year, at different stages of your
life – the reason you choose the food you eat,
depends on your motivation.

For dinner tonight, you might want something
quick and easy. In warm weather you might
prefer something light. And once you're over
40, you'll start thinking more about what
exactly is in the food you're eating.

Mushrooms, more than any other food, satisfy
our reasons for eating a certain type of food or
meal:

• easy to use
• quick to prepare (either raw or cooked)
• nothing artificial
• tasty
• combine easily with other foods
• healthy

Is it enough to simply say
a food is healthy?

Mushrooms are free of salt and sugar, which is
enough for most people to call mushrooms healthy.

But mushrooms are more than just 'healthy'. In fact, mushrooms are often referred to as one of nature's true superfoods, because they are:

• nutrient-rich
• flavour-rich
• low in kilojoules
• high in antioxidants
• protective against certain cancers
• fat and cholesterol-free
• easy-to-get
• affordable

In Australia and around the world, there is on-going research that is already indicating that there are long-term, measurable benefits to including mushrooms in your diet every single day.
