What kind of food is this?
A flat-capped mushroom. Selenium is 6µg per 100g, notably high among the vegetables we list, and zinc is 1mg.
Selenium is a mineral needed by the antioxidant enzymes that handle free radicals in the body. Zinc also supports skin, coat, protein metabolism, and many enzyme reactions.
Its appeal is bringing trace minerals and mushroom fiber from a food unlike leafy greens or root vegetables.
How to serve
Cook and chop finely before serving. Use only mushrooms sold for eating. Do not use mushrooms growing in the yard or along walking paths — some are hard to identify and can cause poisoning.
