Product Name: YX-441 Dried White Flower Shiitake Mushroom
What is Shiitake mushroom? Shiitake mushrooms are native to China and have been used in traditional medicine for more than 6000 years. Around the late 1990s, scientists began to discover the substances in shiitakes responsible for their antioxidant and immune-boosting benefits. Shiitakes are also a good source of dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals.
1, Definition
The shiitake, also called the Chinese black mushroom, is a large, golden to dark brown mushroom with an edible cap. Popular in Asian cuisine for centuries, it has gained popularity in the United States, where it's added to salads, soups and pastas. It's also meaty and flavorful enough to be used as the primary ingredient in sandwiches. Dried shiitakes can be stored in the freezer for up to six months.
2, Basic Nutrition
The process of drying the shiitake mushroom improves its overall nutritional value. Just one example is vitamin D, which increases from 4 IU in one serving of raw mushrooms to 26 IU when dried. Some sources state that shiitakes provide 19 percent of the daily value (DV) of iron and 10 percent of the DV of vitamin C, protein and fiber. Although those values are accurate, they're based on 226 grams of mushrooms. A very generous serving size of four shiitake mushrooms only weighs 15 grams. Because this article includes nutrition information for one serving size, the values will be much smaller.
 
One serving has 44 calories, 3 percent DV of protein, 4 percent DV of total carbohydrates and an insignificant amount of fats and sugars. Shiitakes are a great source of dietary fiber; one serving provides 7 percent of your daily value.
3, Vitamins
The shiitake is an exceptional source of the B vitamin pantothenic acid (B5), which is essential for the body's ability to convert food to energy and produce essential fats and neurotransmitters. In addition to providing 33 percent of the DV of pantothenic acid, shiitakes also supply other B vitamins, including riboflavin (11 percent), niacin (11 percent), vitamin B6 (7 percent), folate (6 percent) and thiamin (3 percent DV). The mushrooms also supply 1 percent of the daily value of vitamin C. Although one serving of dried mushrooms provides 26 IU of vitamin D, this is not enough to register as a percent of the DV.
 
4, Minerals
Shiitakes are a great source of essential minerals, including copper (39 percent), selenium (10 percent) and manganese (9 percent DV). You'll also gain 8 percent of the daily value of zinc, 7 percent of potassium, 5 percent of magnesium and 1 percent of iron.
