Description
The use of mushrooms in the kitchen, as well as their potential cultivation, is covered by a number of publications in our country. This one will primarily introduce you to their medicinal effects. For each of the more than thirty mushrooms, a brief history of use, morphological description, and distribution are provided, along with any related species. The book goes into more detail about the active substances and healing effects, including their use in traditional Chinese medicine. Their culinary applications and possibilities for cultivation outside their natural habitat are also mentioned. The final chapter provides an overview of eight commonly found mushrooms in our country that deserve our attention for their healing properties. The publication includes four indexes, one of which focuses on the use of individual mushrooms for various diseases. The book is richly illustrated and supplemented with a color photo appendix.
