Details

It may be surprising to learn that mushrooms contain a multitude of molecules that give them not only nutritional value, distinctive flavors and textures, but also medicinal properties. Although they can be toxic or even fatal in some cases, these bioactive molecules are of real interest in pharmacology.

Several species of fungi are already used in the production of medicines against various diseases such as cancer.

Presented in a series of fact sheets, this book describes nearly 450 fungi. Each illustrated description is supported by scientific information. A rigorous and essential work for anyone interested in bioactive molecules.
