“…Individual studies on mushrooms are also reported such as Volvariella volvacea (Chiu et al, 1995), Ganoderma lucidum (Ahmad et al, 2021; Rahman et al, 2018), Pleurotus sp. (dos Reis et al, 2022). With growing interest of edible mushrooms, this review attempts to explore relation of mushroom bioactives with anticholesterolemic effects.…”

Edible mushrooms are popular functional foods attributed to their rich nutritional bioactive constituent profile influencing cardiovascular function. Edible mushrooms are omnipresent in various prescribed Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, Mediterranean diet, and fortified meal plans as they are rich in amino acids, dietary fiber, proteins, sterols, vitamins, and minerals. However, without an understanding of the influence of mushroom bioactive constituents, mechanism of action on heart and allergenicity, it is difficult to fully comprehend the role of mushrooms as dietary interventions in alleviating hypertension and other cardiovascular malfunctions. To accomplish this endeavor, we chose to review edible mushrooms and their bioactive constituents in ameliorating hypertension. Hypertension and cardiovascular diseases are interrelated and if the former is managed by dietary changes, it is postulated that overall heart health could also be improved. With a concise note on different edible varieties of mushrooms, a particular focus is presented on the antihypertensive potential of mushroom bioactive constituents, mode of action, absorption kinetics and bioavailability. Ergosterol, lovastatin, cordycepin, tocopherols, chitosan, ergothioneine, γ-aminobutyric acid, quercetin, and eritadenine are described as essential bioactives with hypotensive effects. Finally, safety concerns on allergens and limitations of consuming edible mushrooms with special reference to chemical toxins and their postulated metabolites are highlighted. It is opined that the present review will redirect toxicologists to further investigate mushroom bioactives and allergens, thereby influencing dietary interventions for heart health.

Mushrooms are substantial source of nutritional, medicinal compounds, and other benefits compounds still need to be worked out for their important applications. Mushrooms as higher Basidiomycetes and Ascomycetes contain secondary metabolites in their fruit bodies, cultured mycelium, and cultured broth. These secondary metabolites have been used in many sides of human activity for many years for maintaining long and healthy life. The genera Pholiota, Pleurotus and Lyophyllum are a group of edible mushrooms that are distributed all over the world. The studies on different species of these edible mushrooms have revealed their nutritional medicinal potentials. This review aims to present the importance of Pholiota microspore, Pleurotus ostreatus and Lyophyllum shimeji, as both food and medicine, and they offer new visions to researchers to develop new drugs and nutraceuticals.

“…Unlike animal foods, mushrooms do not contain steroidal cholesterol, but vitamin D2 can be converted to vitamin D by irradiation. Ergosterol has been associated with various biological activities and is considered a beneficial dietary supplement human [37]. Other compounds present in Pleurotus are vitamins that involve antioxidant activities, including [8] riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, which plays an important role in maintaining good eye health, helps convert food into energy, contributes to the production of red blood cells, fights aging and prevents heart disease.…”

Article InformationPleurotus has more than 200 species and is one of the edible mushrooms with great potential as a food source with various nutritional and biological benefits and its ability to synthesize essential amino acids. These mushroom species have been investigated for their antioxidant activity and their value ranges from 60 to 90% depending on the species, culture conditions, and extraction methods. These mushrooms have a wide variety of beneficial nutrients for health, whether as a functional food, nutraceutical or as a component for medicines, they have a high biological activity for the well-being of people. Bioavailability is the amount of a nutrient absorbed by the intestine and from that moment becomes available to carry out physiological functions and as storage. Methodologies for measuring nutrient bioavailability involve investigation in humans, mice, pigs, and other animals (in vivo) or simulation in laboratory assays (in vitro). This fungal resource is promising in improving the health conditions of the current population through the sale of products. On the other hand, understanding the term bioavailability can help to optimize diets and establish adequate nutrient recommendations. Therefore, this work explains the approach from botanical characteristics, nutritional content, and its health benefits, as well as processed foods that have been developed with fungi, analyzing the aspects of bioavailability.
