Most mushrooms are known to provide highprotein, low fat and low energy content that make them an excellentfood in low caloric diets (Ribeiro, Guedes de Pinho, Andrade,Baptista, & Valentão, 2009). Moreover, mushrooms containdifferent dietary nutrients additional to their strong antioxidantcapacities, including phenolic compounds and vitamins (Furlani &Godoy, 2008; Kalac, 2009; Vaz et al., 2011). In particular, the useof mushroom extracts as antioxidants is becoming increasinglypopular due to accumulated data showing their free radical scavengingactivity and lipid peroxidation inhibition in animal erythrocytesand in brain cell membranes (Barros, Dueñas, Ferreira,Baptista, & Santos-Buelga, 2009; Verzelloni, Tagliazucchi, & Conte,2007). These characteristics make mushrooms a good source ofpotent and therapeutically useful bioactive substances that providehealth benefits connected to a reduced risk of chronic and degenerativediseases.
