| Nutritionist Monica Reinagel discusses whether raw white button mushrooms are safe to eat. They contain some toxin - that is destroyed by cooking - in low concentration which may cause cancer. The conclusion is that the concentration is quite low and that the mushrooms also contain good chemicals so that on balance eating them raw is not a problem. |
