Mushrooms -- A wonderful food for GD patients
Mushrooms are very healthy with lots of protein and less of carbohydrates.There are nearly 33,000 varieties of mushrooms in the world.They differ in size, shape and properties also.Mushrooms are white in colour because they do not have chlorophyll in them.Table mushrooms are very tasty and of high nutritious value whereas toadmushrooms called otherwise toadstools are very poisonous.
Vegetarians can take plenty of mushrooms for full supply of proteins.They have very little calorific value and full of Selenium,Riboflavin,follate,vitamin B6 and Niacin. They have high potassium which reduces blood pressure in people.
There are certain chemicals in mushroom which prevent certain virus from entering into the body.Mushroom retains more nutrition when cooked rather than taken raw.
So mushroom is a very well balanced food item esp.for diabetic patients.In 100 gms of meat there is 18% protein,in 100 gms fish, there is 23% protein, but in 100 gms of mushroom 33% protein is present. Both fat and carb are less in mushroom ideally suited for Gestational diabetic ladies.White button mushrooms and Oyster mushrooms are ideal for cooking and eating.
