Edible mushrooms include many fungal species that are either harvested wild or cultivated. Before assuming that any wild mushroom is edible, it should be identified. Accurate determination and proper identification of a species is the only safe way to ensure edibility, and the only safeguard against possible accidents.

Despite long-term use in folk medicine, there is no scientific evidence that consuming “medicinal mushrooms” cures or lowers the risk of human diseases. Edible mushroom species have been found in association with 13,000-year-old archaeological sites in Chile. 3400 and 3100 BCE in Europe, was found with two types of mushroom. The Chinese value mushrooms for their supposed medicinal properties as well as for food. In 2019, world production of commercial mushrooms and recorded truffle collection reported to the Food and Agriculture Organization was 11.

Mushrooms are nearly always cooked before consumption. Frying, roasting, baking, and microwaving are all used to prepare mushrooms. Mushrooms will usually last a few days, longer if refrigerated. Mushrooms can be frozen, but are best cooked first. They can also be dried or pickled. Percentages are roughly approximated using US recommendations for adults.

Higher mushroom consumption has been associated with lower risk of breast cancer. The content of vitamin D is absent or low unless mushrooms are exposed to sunlight or purposely treated with artificial ultraviolet light, even after harvesting and processed into dry powder. When exposed to UV light before or after harvest, mushrooms convert their large concentrations of ergosterol into vitamin D2. Testing showed an hour of UV light exposure before harvesting made a serving of mushrooms contain twice the FDA’s daily recommendation of vitamin D. With 5 minutes of artificial UV light exposure after harvesting, a serving of mushrooms contained four times as much. The form of vitamin D found in UV-irradiated mushrooms is ergocalciferol, or vitamin D2. This is not the same as cholecalciferol, called vitamin D3, which is produced by UV-irradiation of human or animal skin, fur, and feathers.

Note double bond at top center. Medicinal mushrooms are mushrooms or extracts from mushrooms that are thought to be treatments for diseases, yet remain unconfirmed in mainstream science and medicine, and so are not approved as drugs or medical treatments. Preliminary research on mushroom extracts has been conducted to determine if anti-disease properties exist, such as for polysaccharide-K or lentinan. Some wild species are toxic, or at least indigestible, when raw.
