Summary:
"There are around 1.5 million fungi species worldwide, of which around 14,000 species produce fruiting bodies known as mushrooms, around 2000 species are edible, and 270 are reported to be medicinal. The fungal kingdom is phylogenetically closer to humans than plants, so give better health benefits to human systems. This book educates readers on the nutritional, pharmaceutical and medicinal values of different mushrooms and their utilization as nutraceuticals and functional foods for human security.

Health benefits of mushrooms, antioxidant and secondary metabolite profiling, major biological activities of mushroom-derived secondary metabolites, functional foods based on the mushrooms, new open doors for therapies, products with added value, toxicology, and side effects if any, are also highlighted"--
