Nutritional Analysis of Cultivated Mushrooms in Bangladesh -Pleurotus ostreatus,Pleurotus sajor-caju,Pleurotus floridaandCalocybe indica

Abstract: Mushroom cultivation has been started recently in Bangladesh. Awareness of the nutritional and medicinal importance of mushrooms is not extensive. In this study, the nutritional values of dietary mushrooms- Pleurotus ostreatus, Pleurotus sajorcaju, Pleurotus florida and Calocybe indica that are very popular among the cultivated mushrooms in Bangladesh have been determined. These mushrooms were rich in proteins (20~25%) and fibers (13~24% in dry samples) and contained a lower amount of lipid (4 to 5%). The carb… Show more

“…But the report about the antioxidant potential of P. sajor-caju is rare. P. sajor-caju is nutritionally rich with higher protein [20,23] than other Pleurotus mushrooms, and it has significant hypocholesterolemic effects [9]. So, this mushroom is recommended for the common people as a nutritious and health beneficial food supplement.…”

“…Both fresh and dried mushrooms are a good source of polysaccharides (37-48%), proteins (20-25%), fiber (13-24%), vitamins (e.g., B 1 , B 2 , B 3 , B 7 , C) and minerals (e.g., K, P, Na, Ca, Mg) while being low in fat content (4-5%) and caloric value [1,2]. They also contain a number of secondary metabolites, such as phenolic compounds, polyketides, terpenes and steroids which possess various properties beneficial for health [3][4][5].…”
