Scientists are now saying there’s more to mushrooms than keeping dementia and Alzheimer’s at bay. A study conducted by a team of researchers at Penn State in the US found that mushrooms are rich in two antioxidants—ergothioneine and glutathione—that protect against oxidative stress, a huge contributor to disease, and have anti-ageing properties. According to the study, mushrooms are the highest dietary source of these antioxidants taken together, although the quantity varies between ‘shrooms. The findings have been published in journal Food Chemistry.
