Called “food of the gods” by Ancient Romans, mushrooms contain special dietary fibers called beta-glucans. Beta-glucans are powerful activators of the immune system and have been found to help people with ragweed allergies reduce the severity of their symptoms by 52 percent when taken as a supplement. Adding more mushrooms, especially shiitake, reishi, oyster mushroom, and huitlacoche, to your daily meals can also increase your intake of beta-glucans.
