Abstract
The need to improve the life quality together with the increase in the frequency of treating diseases attracted the attention of many researches to view food as a source of nutritional and therapeutical agents. Since earliest times, several mushrooms have been reported as a nutritious food with valuable medicinal properties. The genus Clitocybe and Lactarius belonging to Basidiomycota fungi, is a potential group of edible mushrooms that are distributed in Europe, North America, Asia, Australia and Mexico. The studies on Clitocybe nuda and Lactariusindigo species have revealed high nutritional and medicinal potentials. This review aims to present Clitocybe and Lactarius genus importance as both food and medicine, and which will offer a new vision to researchers to develop new drugs from natural sources.
