Functional mushrooms

No, we don’t mean the ordinary mushroom you are going to mix with pasta this evening. This ingredient was previously principally used in dietary supplements, but functional mushrooms are poised to take to the stage in 2018 in your cup of coffee or healthy juice or shake.

” We are witnessing the emergence of new raw materials, such as nettles, clay, plastic pollution retrieved from the ocean. These materials are crafted into luxury products. One example is leather made from a fungus that is allowed to grow so it can be processed into an alternative to animal leather.”
