Mushrooms are celebrated for their rich flavors and meat-imitating umami properties, making them an excellent vegetarian alternative to animal products. Several studies have shown plant-based eating reduces inflammation and in turn protects our brains. And adding mushrooms, such as porcini, to your diet can further fight inflammation, thanks in part to the antioxidant ergothioneine (ERG). According to a 2023 review published in Nutrients, low levels of ERG in people age 60 or older may be a risk factor for age-related diseases, such Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. But a couple of cups of mushrooms weekly may be all you need. A 2019 study in Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease with 663 participants age 60 or older found those who ate at least 1½ cups of mushrooms, such as oyster, shiitake, and white (button),…

DID YOU KNOW? Asparagus dishes are often enjoyed at Easter celebrations, as the green spears symbolize the abundance of new life and growth. STORAGE SMARTS Say goodbye to wilted herbs. To keep them fresh, treat them as you would a bouquet of flowers. First, rinse the herbs in cool water to remove any soil. Then strip and discard any yellowing leaves and stems. Blot the herbs dry with paper towels, then gather them into a bunch and trim a bit of the stem ends. Grab a jar and fill with enough water to cover the bottom of the stems without touching leaves. Finally, cover the herbs loosely with a plastic bag and chill. The bag keeps the leaves humid while allowing airflow. APRIL 16TH is National Eggs Benedict Day. Celebrate…

DOES THE OLD ADAGE “AN APPLE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY” RING TRUE? Fruits and vegetables provide a bevy of the nutrients (fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants) needed for everyday living and to prevent long-term health conditions. Consuming a variety of produce is key for overall health, so add more to your grocery cart than just apples. Switch up the types of fruits and vegetables you eat throughout the week to enjoy a diverse array of nutrients. Eating the proverbial rainbow is an excellent strategy to help you meet intake goals. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend that most adults consume 1½ to 2 cups of fruits and 2 to 3 cups of vegetables daily (see “Make It Count,” page 77). The average American age 19 or older does…
