I’ve been so engrossed in watching your videos, I’ve forgotten to give you the “all important 👍, and comment” that prompts the algorithm in RUclips. How refreshing; clarity and informing, without having to suffer every dice and slice. Thank you for the incredible amount of work you have accomplished here on this site, that we see and don’t see. You have a gifted talent in this field.
I have watched about 5 of your videos and they all had great information. Your channel should have tons more subscribers. YT needs to give it more love.
Thorough explanation using unbiased scientific studies. Unbiased being hard to come by. You have a pleasant voice and calming vibe about you. Well done and thank you 💚😁
I've heard of this with mushrooms before. This video is an absolutely incredible explanation of the process! This is an outstanding video! Thank you for sharing this and making it so easy to understand! Well done!
I too had heard of this before, but I had no idea the massive amount of Vitamin D produced. This motivates me to do this, and replace my store bought supplement with this natural version. How good!
Very well put together, and very well balanced and thought out. I really want to say thanks for putting this content out. I have found that every time I eat mushroom's I feel mentally better the next day or two. I'd heard about sun exposure and your vid showed me everything I need to know to get started. Thanks again.
I have been using a UVB lamp for a couple years inside of my refrigerator. I cut up button mushroom like you did in the video. I lay them on a baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. The UVB lamp sits on the top shelf and the mushrooms sit below. I usually leave it for a couple days, but maybe that is too long -- 12 to 16 hours is probably better from what you said in the video.
Thanks for excellent advise on sun-drying mushrooms. A tip I learnt is to slice the button mushrooms with an egg slicer, place them on their side and they cut beautifully and quickly x Libby, Jeffrey's Bay, South Africa 🇿🇦 😀
My dearest Adrienna, darling girl, if you told me to eat the medium the mushrooms grow in, i would ask for seconds. You look amazing, your skin, i could only dream of. I am a 73yo Nanny living in Queensland, Australia, growing up, yes still growing up, in some of the harshest sunlight in the world I think, and with not to much education in the early years on how to protect our skin. I am so glad i found your fabulously informative channel, you are a treat. ❤ I wish for you only good things. Sherie Rodrigues from Australia
Absolutely brilliant video 👍 And even more useful Q&A in the comments as the author is actually answering questions! Thank you, I've subscribed and shall watch more of yours.
I really love the work you put into your videos. So, I grow shittake mushrooms and in my books they recommend to slice them thinner than you did for the button mushrooms and dry in the sun as you recommend. I have been successful storing them in brown paper bags. Seems the paper bags absorb the moisture before the mushrooms. Anyway it's an excellent way to get the natural vitamin D because it's so critical. Watch Ivor Cummins explain it in his RUclips video " The Critical Role of Vitamin D". Thanks!😊
What a great idea! Congratulation! Just one thumb up is not enough, yhis earns at least five...Folks, do not worry about oversupplying Vit.D to your body; it is virtually impossible, in spite of a widely held believe. This has been experimentally tested. Calcium in the blood stayed normal with high and also very high doses of Vitamin D.
We eat all three but flax the least. Surprisingly, flax seed was the ONLY thing that lowered my mother’s out of control high blood pressure. 4 Tablespoons of fresh ground flax seeds in her cereal every morning, brought it low when 3 meds would not.🤷🏻♀️
Thank you for all the knowledge you put out there for us. I have already made my hemp fermented milk. I am on my way to making Kiefer. I’m actually addicted to your channel and I have learned so much. Keep them coming please
I have watched many of your videos and now regularly ferment vegetables. My gut health has improved significantly. The Oyster mushroom clip in this video is especially memorable. Thank you so much. 😍
Thank you so much for your videos! I’ve learned so much! I live in Florida and tried drying oyster mushrooms in the sun last year for my son in Colorado. It worked great as long as the sun was full and bright. I loved your storage idea with the rice and the way you used the button mushrooms. Thanks again!
Thank you so much. Not sure how your channel slips my mind and is only rarely in my feed, because every video you do is just full of good information and a pleasure to watch. Excited to try this soon. I'm in South Georgia and understood your warning about humidity. Fingers crossed it works for me. ❤
Since I live in central Texan have plenty of sun and frequent high humidity so I charge them up then crisp dry them in 8 drawer Excalibur dehydreater. I am also going to dehydrate arugula sprouts for d dehydrating and powdering for my winter stash of NO2. I also use the temp control on dehydrator to roast the arugula leaves which gives it the yummiest unami flavor. I love you have all organic produce.
Correction...learned the hard way...arugula sprouts are wickedly potent nasty tasting butthe small 3-5 inches long roast up nice and powder down as a unique unami flavor. God dor wintertime NO2. Great if you paint meat with surry of dissolved coffee crystals (I use decafe and a bit of water to a sticky paste texture, brown meat, then sprinkle on roasted arugula powder so you can judge and adjust the taste. I have done pork loin/pork chops grounded and stew beef, and it has such a deep meaty taste.
Thank you for this very good educational video. To prevent the mushrooms from flying away, you might like to just hang them out on a string. I would cut the mushrooms as you did with button mushrooms. This will also increase sun exposure and dry them faster.
Beautiful video explaining the science of sun dried mushrooms. It’s so comprehensive and easy to understand. Thanks for putting this together in a world where we are increasingly starved of VIT D due to modern lifestyle. I have a request: can you also please make a video explaining best way to prepare with this sun dried mushrooms without loosing stored D2. Thanks a lot.
You did a truly wonderful video - it was clear and understandable. And you explained it all in a very short period of time. WAY TO GO! Thank you very much…
Did you have to share how many pounds you may need to dehydrate to get you through till the next summer and how much you should consumer every day? Thank you and love the channel
Hi. I hope you are still reading your comments on this video. 😊 I’m curious about a few things. In the video you mentioned about cooking with the sunshine mushrooms. If you heat them, does the heat affect the the amount of vitamin D or how it’s absorbed in our bodies? Also, how much should you consume each morning? Should we be weighing them? To consume them, should I soak them in water first? What is the best way to consume them, understanding that the mornings are the best time to take vitamin D? Thank you so much! I have learned so much from your videos. I will trying the red cabbage fermentation in January. Mostly because I love beets, and also I watched your video on the differences between the green and red cabbage. I’m very happy to see that the red is so much more healthy. My husband prefers green cabbage though so I will be making that one next. Thank you again! ♥️✊🇨🇦 Alberta
Hi, 1. heating/cooking them drops the D levels a little, but it's still there. Can't say much about absorption since everyone's body is different. How well someone absorbs and assimilates vit D can depend a lot on literally one's DNA.... there's genes for everything! 2. I can't recommend how much to eat because the D isn't standardized per mushroom. The research I would say is a suggestion of how much D could potentially be in the mushroom. Much depends on latitude, time of year and length of exposure. I personally took a handful every day and crumbled them into my food. No need to weigh them. 3. You can rehydrate them by soaking first, but it's not needed. If you want to keep them raw when you eat them, you can crush them by hand over oatmeal, a salad, rice or a cooked dish. Or if it doesn't matter to you whether they're cooked, you can cook them in some soup or sauce, etc. 4. Good luck with your krauts and happy new year! 😊
Oh - one more thing. You asked about UBV chamber and if anyone had tried it. The kits certainly vary in price but most are several hundred dollars. We do have one and I haven't tried it with mushrooms sorry - but great idea. One other downside of the UVB chamber / tent (if using it a lot) is the cost of the electricity . Not so bad for a small batch if but doing it all the time, the price could become a component discouraging some. but Then again, personally for the benefits - I'd be willing to give it a go.
You are amazing :D I've been picking my own mushrooms for years and turning them into powder but did know this trick. I love all your videos, please more :D
Thanks for your prompt answer and exceptional vedeo how much mushroom should i eat every day .? And should i pack the mushroom in the jar ? I was involved in mushroom growing for thirty years and although my work was on the electrical side i can share some knowledge with you .mushroom is grown in three batches in one bed of compost than the compost is thrown away. You can recognise the mushroom of the first batch from the second and third . The once from the first batch will have a thicker stem than those of the second and third batch.similarly the once from second batch will have a thicker stem from the third.
Read The Optimal Level by Dr Sommerville and Optimim blood level is 140ngper mL. Toxicity does not happen until300 ng per ml in the blood. regular calcium test will be helpful to determine individual toxicity level but supplementing together with K2 will be better and not to be paraboid about toxicity which is easily reversible.
I found out years ago from Monterey Mushrooms (big producer) they charge them up with UV soo my vit D being 19 long story) I tell everyone I know about this... I keep a jar of dried UV mushrooms and eat one everyday. I know only too well about vit D toxcity. Another long story. I am ever impressed you went to the trouble of testing vit D levels. Makes sense to track the sun!
So while our bodies need VD-3, we also need Vitamin K-2, K-7 which Keeps calcium in the bones not the blood , tendons, vessels, arteries ect. Need magnesium and zinc as well when adding Vitamin D-3 to our bodies
I have dried heaps of bolitus edulis mushrooms outside in the South African sun, but moved to another town with no woods where I could harvest. I have started to just dry my store bought mushrooms in my fridge. One can certainly do it outside in the sun, but with oppertunistic birds around, it is not so successful. Drying in the fridge, works well.
Thank you for a comprehensive instruction :) I wonder if there are other mushrooms that could produce even more vitamin D. Since D2 is around 25-30% efficient when compared to D3, it would be nice to have a higher concentration, so it could sustain enough vitamin D for longer times, like 5-10 years supplies. Thank you
Hi, Thanks for your effort in structuring this video in such sequenced way which makes it easier for us to understand & remember. I believe the latitude we live in should have an impact on the no.of days of drying to not over exposure. I tried to study on my own too & there isnt one that exactly described this. I live in Auckland-NZ (latitude -35) & since you mentioned you live in Montana, I looked up a city southern city in MT called Hardin (Lat 45), so i guess 2 days exposure is applicable for me here in NZ too. But if you already had access to such a study, could you pls share if possible. Thanks.
I seriously love ur channel! I am going to get some musheooms to try this out asap! I just got some mushrooms fermenting today because of your other mushroom fermentation video. Super excited to try this now!
You have a very tidy and concise thought process that is excellent for someone tutoring others in new skills. Thank you for your time and effort. It is a joy to be instructed by you. A question?? Do the mushrooms have to be outside to dehydrate or can they be inside the house. I have an extremely sunny home and could easily access 6 to 8 hrs of sunlight. Thanks again.
Just found Your amazing channel - I am so happy!! Thanks a lot for so much great and really life-changing content!! Could you tell us please how many mushrooms you sundry for your winter-time? Thanks again and be blessed abundantly ❤!! Greatings from Germany 😊
Hi @CleanFoodLiving! Thanks for the info presented, and knowledge gained. Kindly ask for your advice: if you properly dry the mushrooms through exposing them to Sun, i.e. concentrate the Vitamin D level in them, would tincturing them in alcohol, afterwards, result in Vitamin D extraction, and additional concentrating it, in the before-mentioned solvent? Nebojsa
Question: Is that "120 g of Vitamin D enriched mushrooms . . . about 1/4 lb, roughly a handful" - taken each time, 4 times per week for 5 weeks or the total amount consumed in the 5 weeks? in other words: Did the experiment use120 g of vit D enhanced dried mushrooms taken 4 times per week for 5 weeks OR did the experiment use 6 g of vit D enhanced dried mushrooms taken 4 times per week for 5 weeks? The answer appears to be obvious but I would be ever so grateful to see it in writing.
Thank you so much for posting this video I've been looking for a more natural.way to get D2 instead of in fortified foods, I eat a whole foods plant based diet, this is perfect can't wait to make sunshine mushrooms for my family and I. Can I use the mesh tents that go over food outdoors to keep insects off of the mushrooms and also keep them from blowing away? ✨Happy New Year✨
Great video! Question though - wouldn't it be best if you sliced every type of mushroom before sun drying? As you said, its the surface area that matters. Seems like an easy way to improve the efficacy of the process, right?
Hi, Adrienna, your video about mashroom is very very nice, going back to India next month. Since I retired from my business activities I am thinking of growing vegetables in my vacation home, where vegetables are growen in big scale as climate supports. I have terrace some 1200 sqft area with ample water supply and almost 6 to 7 hours of Sun shine. I am specially interested in growing mashroom alongwith other vegetables. Please guide me know how for my startup. I have been very much impressed with your knowledge and experience, skills.
Hi, I think your large terrace sounds great, but I have not grown my own mushrooms yet so I am sorry I can't help. Blessings to you and your ambitions!
Hello ! Awesome video !! I subscribed!!! I have cremini mushrooms that im trying and treating them similar to buttons. Im in Canada 🇨🇦 in the summer months. Thank you 🙏🏻
Wow that's a great explanation.Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. We live in a rented apartment. I can keep in direct sunlight in summers only between 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Should I keep more days till that turn crispy? Please guide.
I’m guessing I’m not gonna get any vitamin D since it’s early November in southeast Georgia. They’re out in the sun anyway for the heck of it. My question is can I just eat them right away or do I have to store them? Last time I did this, I just made grilled onion and mushroom to go with my steak, and the taste was amazing! Shiitake mushrooms they almost had a sweet flavor
What would be results using a dehydrator? It’s coming into winter here but I really would like to try this asap. Loving all your videos, learning some really useful information from you having just recently come across you! By the way what’s your name lol? Thank you so much, from southern Italy!
Very interesting information. Thank you. I am wondering if I can grind these mushrooms in a blender to a flour, then store it in a glass container, and add it to my cooked dishes, what happens to vitamin D ? It still going to be there?
Pulverizing the mushrooms won't affect the vitamin D. Cooking the mushrooms may reduce it a bit, but not entirely so there will still be benefit. You could add it to the dish after cooking though.
Just wondering what would happen to the nutrient profile and bio-availability if these mushroons were rehydrated and fermented. Any thoughts? I just recently found your channel; enjoying your content and presentation. 👍
One more video and one more Huge thank you. I have several medical conditions, and spend 99% of my time inside resting. I know I am low on Vit D. If I was to use a uv light, about how many mushrooms should I consume a day, a week please, as you warned on not overdoing it. Thank you kindly in advance.
I can't tell you how much to take, but for myself I had 1 to 2 a day with the UV light (not natural sun).... I think I could eat 3 to 4 a day. All the best to you 😊
would you be so kind to let us know the concentration ratio IU / gr of dried mushrooms, e.g. sun-shine exposed gills - 46,000 IU / how much grams of dried muchrooms?
I've been doing this research today. A study gave 20,000UI per 1 cup mushrooms exposed to sun for the 2 days running. The good doctors that I follow recommend 4,000 UI per day.
Just wanna say as a doctor, athlete and food/biochemistry nerd your channel is such a joy. The quality of your instruction is top notch

Those living in hawaii or other sunshine regions can produce these Vit D2 packed mushrooms year-round and still enjoy D3 from the sun.

use arecanut/terracota plates to place mushroom ,metals do get heated under sun

Thank you so much for posting this video I've been looking for a more natural.way to get D2 instead of in fortified foods, I eat a whole foods plant based diet, this is perfect can't wait to make sunshine mushrooms for my family and I.
Can I use the mesh tents that go over food outdoors to keep insects off of the mushrooms and also keep them from blowing away? ✨Happy New Year✨
Great video! Question though - wouldn't it be best if you sliced every type of mushroom before sun drying? As you said, its the surface area that matters. Seems like an easy way to improve the efficacy of the process, right?
Yes, I would agree and I do that now. Plus really helps with the drying efficacy .

great video! do you wash your mushrooms? the mushrooms I buy from the store always have dirt on them :/
Thanks for sharing, 👍 .
Hi, Adrienna, your video about mashroom is very very nice, going back to India next month. Since I retired from my business activities I am thinking of growing vegetables in my vacation home, where vegetables are growen in big scale as climate supports. I have terrace some 1200 sqft area with ample water supply and almost 6 to 7 hours of Sun shine. I am specially interested in growing mashroom alongwith other vegetables. Please guide me know how for my startup. I have been very much impressed with your knowledge and experience, skills.
Hi, I think your large terrace sounds great, but I have not grown my own mushrooms yet so I am sorry I can't help. Blessings to you and your ambitions!
Grow your own I worked in mushroom farm 5 year's it's easy Now to grow own and even inoculate your own spore youl'e be surprised how much you get
Do you wash your mushrooms before drying them under the sun? And how much to eat each day?
An incredible job, thanks!!!
Hello ! Awesome video !! I subscribed!!! I have cremini mushrooms that im trying and treating them similar to buttons. Im in Canada 🇨🇦 in the summer months. Thank you 🙏🏻
Hello Canada! Excellent going with the creminis, enjoy!😃
Thank you for such incredibly info. How are you taking the mushroom and how muc, please. ❤
nice one THANK YOU
Wow that's a great explanation.Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. We live in a rented apartment. I can keep in direct sunlight in summers only between 9:00 am to 12:00 pm. Should I keep more days till that turn crispy? Please guide.
I'm really enjoying your videos I've seen three so far. And I'm really liking these. 🤗🙏🙏🙏
I’m guessing I’m not gonna get any vitamin D since it’s early November in southeast Georgia. They’re out in the sun anyway for the heck of it. My question is can I just eat them right away or do I have to store them? Last time I did this, I just made grilled onion and mushroom to go with my steak, and the taste was amazing! Shiitake mushrooms they almost had a sweet flavor
What a fascinating video. My mind is going 100mph
Thanks so much
Great video as usual.
Question: how do i consume them? Do i add them into a stew, or eat them like potatoe chips?
You can add to soups. A little D is lost with cooking, but not much. Crumble them over salad, oatmeal, into smoothies, over stir fry, rice, pasta....
What would be results using a dehydrator? It’s coming into winter here but I really would like to try this asap.
Loving all your videos, learning some really useful information from you having just recently come across you! By the way what’s your name lol? Thank you so much, from southern Italy!
Very interesting information. Thank you. I am wondering if I can grind these mushrooms in a blender to a flour, then store it in a glass container, and add it to my cooked dishes, what happens to vitamin D ? It still going to be there?
Pulverizing the mushrooms won't affect the vitamin D. Cooking the mushrooms may reduce it a bit, but not entirely so there will still be benefit. You could add it to the dish after cooking though.
@@CleanFoodLiving Thank you, darling! Your Chanel is very helpful! I really appreciate your effort. Thank you again!
Just wondering what would happen to the nutrient profile and bio-availability if these mushroons were rehydrated and fermented. Any thoughts? I just recently found your channel; enjoying your content and presentation. 👍
Thank you for your channel! How many mushrooms do we take for daily use? Will three jars last all year?
I’d appreciate your comment
I got some psychedelic products from an online supplier

Hi from Bangkok.
Thx for yr vid. Much appreciated. I’m wondering if I can wash the mushrooms before taking out to the sun?
Yes
Lovely and calming info, cheers
Is it safe to just leave them out in the outside uncovered? What about flies or things that could get on them?
Phenomenal!
One more video and one more Huge thank you. I have several medical conditions, and spend 99% of my time inside resting. I know I am low on Vit D. If I was to use a uv light, about how many mushrooms should I consume a day, a week please, as you warned on not overdoing it. Thank you kindly in advance.
I can't tell you how much to take, but for myself I had 1 to 2 a day with the UV light (not natural sun).... I think I could eat 3 to 4 a day. All the best to you 😊
Thank you so kindly. Very much appreciated
So, after doing this how do you use these mushroom? I’m not familiar with dried mushrooms. Thanks 🙋♀️🌹
would you be so kind to let us know the concentration ratio IU / gr of dried mushrooms, e.g. sun-shine exposed gills - 46,000 IU / how much grams of dried muchrooms?
I've been doing this research today. A study gave 20,000UI per 1 cup mushrooms exposed to sun for the 2 days running. The good doctors that I follow recommend 4,000 UI per day.
What type of light bulb should I use? They have a different spectrum of UV and different power.
Great video! Thank you!
I aspire to farm mushrooms. :D
Why do I feel better eating mushrooms but feel off taking vitamin D supplement with K2?
Can you put them into a freeze dryer after sitting in the sun? And if I ground them into a powder after, would they keep their vitamins?
