Mushroom picking has been a part of Polish tradition for ages, but what do we really know about mushrooms themselves? Can you cure yourself with mushrooms? Can they save our planet? Wouldn’t it be great to speak with an expert and finally find out exactly what the benefits of mushrooms are? Well, that is exactly what we did.
In this strikingly informative interview 'The Low-Down on Mushrooms: An Interview With a Professor', Dr Cecylia Uklańska-Pusz and I discuss the healing effects of mushrooms, we discover their properties, what exactly makes them toxic, why pickled mushrooms are unhealthy, how easy it actually is to cultivate mushrooms in our gardens and much more. She shares with us priceless information, e.g. that mushroom picking does not have to be limited to autumn and that Poland has been a leader in mushroom cultivation in Europe for over ten years!
