VANADIUM-CONTAINING MUSHROOM AND FUNCTIONAL FOOD USING THE SAME, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE MUSHROOM AND THE FUNCTIONAL FOOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain vanadium-containing mushroom and a functional food.

SOLUTION: This vanadium-containing mushroom is obtained by culturing mushroom mycelium or cultivating mushroom carpophore through using vanadium- and/or coral sand component-containing culture soil. The vanadium- containing functional food is obtained by drying and crushing the vanadium- containing mushroom thus obtained, through using especially Pleurotus ostreatus (scientific name), Hericium erinaceum and Panus cornucopia. Alternatively, another functional compound is mixed with or included in the resultant vanadium-containing functional food or a concentrated/extracted vanadium- containing functional food.
