From the results of the study, the average mushrooms contain 19-35 percent protein. Compared to rice (7.38 percent) and wheat (13.2 percent), he had higher protein yield. Essential amino acid found in mushrooms, about a nine kinds of the 20 known amino acids.

The results of the Beta Glucan Health Center said that the oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) contain compounds Pleuran (in Japan, oyster mushroom fungus called Hiratake as medicine), contains a protein (19-30 percent), carbohydrates (50-60 percent), amino acids , vitamin B1 (thiamin), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (Niacin), B5 (panthotenat acid), B7 (biotin), Vit C and the minerals Calcium, Iron, Mg, Phosphorus, K, P, S, Zn. Can also as antitumor, lowers cholesterol, and antioxidants.

Researchers from Ujagar Group (India) expressed, that the oyster mushroom nutritional value is very good with reason: 100 percent of the vegetables and clean high protein and rich in vitamins, minerals; low-carbohydrate, fat and calories; good for the liver, patients with diabetes , and lose weight; high fiber helps digestion; antiviral and anticancer; easy to cook and easy to digest; and oyster mushrooms are mushrooms that taste good compared to most other food fungus.

Mushrooms also contain folic acid high enough, supposedly able to cure anemia.

In comparison, tempeh is made from soybeans which are rich in fiber and also as a source of various nutrients such as Calcium, Vitamin D, and iron, has the following ingredients: 204 calories, 17 grams protein, 8 grams fat, 15 grams carbohydrates, 80 mg calium, Fe (Iron) 2 mg, and 0.2 mg Zn.

Can be compared with that of chicken meat protein 18.2 grams, 25.0 grams of fat, but carbohydrates and 0.0 grams of Vitamin C is also 0.0 grams. Thus, yeast nutrients are more complete so that no one when it is said fungus is the future of food.

Active compounds contained fungus can rumored as antifungal, antibacterial, and antiviral can enhance the immune system and can kill insects and nematodes. In 1960, the researchers managed to find the influence of some fungi as antitumor. Active component in question is polysaccharida, and especially the Beta - D - Glucans. As a standardized product of the oyster mushroom (Plurotus ostreatus and P. eryngii) Plovastin called the market as a cholesterol-lowering supplements. Plovastin active component of the statins, are both inhibit the metabolism of cholesterol in the human body (Itzkovich, 2001).

Results from research Bobek (1999) from the Research Institute of Nutrition Bratislava on "Natural products with hypolipemic and anti-oxidant effect. Studies have been conducted in a group with 57 male: female = 1:1, age middle-aged, with a case of hyperlipoproteinemia. For one month they consumed 10 grams of oyster mushrooms on a regular basis. Conclusion, statistically very promising, namely serum cholesterol and down 12.6 percent and 27.2 percent triglycerol down. Oyster mushrooms also have antioxidant effects with decreasing results in the erythrocytes peroksidasi.

Beta-1, 3/1-6-Glucan naturally derived from the polysaccharida intensively studied since 1950 as an antitumor and immunostimulating device (trigger immunity). Beta-Pleuran is 1.3 / 1-6-Glucan isolated from oyster mushroom has a high content polysaccharida, commonly used for cream, ointment, suspension, and powder for skin care in the world by researchers and cosmetics companies for formulation (Example; Estee Lauder and Clinique). 0,5-2,00 percent concentration. This facial treatment is useful to bind water, hydrate skin and anti-inflammatory. Experiments on 121 patients of chronic acne, given daily for 21 days, the results improved 73.5 per cent condition, 18.2 percent of the total recovered (Kuniak et al, 1995. Faculty of Pharmacy and STV, Batislava, Slovak Republic in Beta Glucan Health Center , www.glucan.com / therapy 2002).
