Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the contribution of the mushroom Pleurotus geesteranus (P. geesteranus) to a good balanced diet. Against the backdrop of three harvests of this mushroom were carried out on the same substrate, this evaluation was made through a physico-chemical analysis according to standard methods and SAIN/LIM scores were calculated using the nutrient profiling system of the French Food Safety Agency. The main information that emerges is that P. geesteranus remains of excellent nutritional quality, independently of the harvest. This result is justified by their SAIN5 ≥ 5 and LIM3 < 7.5 scores and their classification in the category of foods recommended for health. Also, the different harvests of the mushroom seemed not to have influenced this quality despite the large variations observed in its biochemical composition.
