Mushrooms are rich in vitamin B & D, riboflavin, niacin & pantothenic acid. This combination is excellent for protecting the heart.
Riboflavin is good for red blood cells & niacin is excellent for the digestive system.
Mushrooms also mitigate the risk of developing serious conditions, such as alzheimer’s and heart disease.
Serve with a side salad and you have the perfect lunch!
