Mushrooms are fungi that are consumed all over the world and contain
bioactive nutritive components with nutritional and therapeutic qualities. Protein,
minerals, vitamins and antioxidants are all found in edible mushrooms. Selenium,
vitamin C, and choline are antioxidants that help the human body remove free radicals.
Antimicrobial, antiviral, anticancer, anti-allergic, immunomodulation, anti-inflammatory, anti-atherogenic, hypoglycemic, hepatoprotective, and antioxidant properties
of mushrooms. Primary and secondary metabolites can be found in mushrooms. The
primary metabolites are energy-producing, but the secondary metabolites have
therapeutic qualities. As the bioactive molecule has a pharmacological effect,
researchers have recently focused on extracting it. As a result, the mushroom has the
potential to be a recipe for human health and play a key role in the battle against
COVID-19 pandemics and other infectious illnesses. Mushrooms and their
biomolecules have therapeutic properties in a variety of diseases, including
cardiovascular, diabetes, reproductive problems, cancer, and neurological disorders. A
computer method, or in silico technology, is promising early evidence for drug
development. Molecular docking studies have discovered bioactive chemicals from
natural items like mushrooms as possible inhibitors against various diseases.
