Champignons (Button Mushrooms)

ByОлена Коновалова
CHAMPIGNONS
     Champignons (Agaricus bisporus) exhibit a substantial mineral profile, containing significant concentrations of: cobalt (121.0% of the Daily Value [DV] per 100 g), copper (43.5%), selenium (26.2%), rubidium (26.0%), chromium (22.8%), potassium (21.2%), and iodine (12.0%). Their vitamin profile is also robust, notably including pantothenic acid (42.0% DV), biotin (32.0%), riboflavin (22.5%), nicotinic acid (24.0%), and ascorbic acid (10.0%). Starch and sucrose are absent from their composition.
     Champignons are further distinguished by their phytosterol content (82.7% DV per 100 g), with ergosterol (51.1%) as the primary constituent. This compound modulates hepatic enzymes, facilitates liver detoxification, and supports the maintenance of normal physiological functions.
     People suffering from gout should take into account that the content of purine bases in champignons is 20% of the maximum daily requirement per 100 g.
     The oxalic acid content in 100 g of champignons is low and amounts to 1.6% of the maximum daily requirement for the human body.
