Oyster Mushroom

Pleurotus ostreatus

Scientific Summary

Oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus) is a cultivated fungus that is widely eaten as a food. It is used mainly for its antioxidant and anti‑inflammatory properties, and for supporting immune function, blood‑sugar control and heart health. Oyster mushrooms are generally safe when cooked and eaten in normal amounts, but people with mushroom allergies or those on immunosuppressive therapy should use caution; large amounts can sometimes cause mild digestive upset.
