Mushroom Monday is a fun way to inspire your clients to make mushrooms a part of their Monday meals for a healthier start to the week. Encourage your clients with these five nutrition facts! 1️⃣ Mushrooms are low in calories, fat free, cholesterol free, gluten free and very low in sodium. 2️⃣ Mushrooms are a nutritional powerhouse and contain more than 12 vitamins and minerals. 3️⃣ Mushrooms play in important role in feeding your immune system. There are a variety of micronutrients that are important for supporting a healthy immune system, including selenium and vitamins D and B6, which can be found in mushrooms. 4️⃣ Mushrooms are the only source of vitamin D in the produce aisle. Just five UV-light exposed white, raw mushrooms (90g) contain more than a full day’s recommended allowance (118%) of vitamin D. 5️⃣ Mushrooms can be food for a better mood. Mushrooms are an excellent source of niacin, a nutrient shown to improve mood disorders.
