New Study: Regular Mushroom Consumption Linked to Lower Cancer Risk - A recent analysis of seventeen cancer studies, involving over nineteen thousand patients, found that eating just eighteen grams of mushrooms daily could reduce cancer risk by forty-five percent.

Certain mushroom varieties, like shiitake, oyster, maitake, and king oyster, have particularly high levels of this antioxidant.
