Vitamin D is notoriously tricky to get enough of through food, and almost half of all adults in the USA are deficient in it.

But there's one little hero in the edible world that packs a mighty punch when it comes to this elusive vitamin: the humble mushroom. When they're exposed to sunlight, mushrooms increase their vitamin D content substantially... and they have a number of other health-boosting benefits, too.

It's not surprising, then, that interest in mushroom foraging has soared over the last few years. With health and sustainability at the forefront of our minds, more and more people are hitting the woodlands and foraging for edible goodies every day.

But if you're new to the foraging game, you're probably a little nervous about how you can be sure you're finding the edible gold...and not the toxic imposters.
