Protein-Rich Milky Mushrooms

Protein-Rich Milky Mushrooms

Fresh and canned milky mushrooms (Calocybe indica) both showed high levels of essential amino acids like leucine, lysine, and valine, with some nutrients increasing slightly during storage. Despite minor fluctuations, both forms retained strong nutritional value, making canned versions a viable option for long-term use in functional or protein-focused diets.
