Indeed, for a long time, biologists and experts believed that nothing deadly in svinushki not.That's just people have long noticed that eating this mushroom is bad for some palates.

to examine the toxicity scientists first began in the 50s of the last century.Previously believed that mushrooms svinushki (toxic or not, they began to find out later) have an adverse effect on health only for the reason that they are too perishable.

Later found out that they have a high capacity for accumulation of toxic substances.But in the 70 years we found that at normal cooking toxins are destroyed, and the fungus is quite suitable for eating.Then svinushki continued to appear in all directories as edible gifts of nature.

Unfortunately, all was smooth only on paper.From all parts of the country from time to time there have been reports of poisoning people, try mushrooms svinushki.Poisonous or not, they often lead to death or severe liver toxicity.

then took up the issue of the whole commission mycologists from all over the Union.It was found that these fungi are able to produce and accumulate muscarine.This same toxin is contained in Amanita.

Among others, scientists have found that svinushki (picture which exist in the article) accumulate poison unevenly in some parts of the content of muscarine was minimal, while in other places they contained so much of the toxin, which is able to catch up with toadstools.

Recently, researchers found that the composition of these unpleasant mushroom contains not only muscarine as heavy damage to the kidneys and liver to explain his actions.What is not yet clear.But getting enough information to say with confidence that svinushki - poisonous mushroom!

In addition, further experiments proved once again its unique ability to accumulate toxins from the environment.So, if within reach has at least one road, in the flesh of this mushroom is as lead, cadmium and arsenic, that his eating uniquely life-threatening.

Unfortunately, in our country have come rather late to this conclusion.For example, in the Czech Republic svinushki ranked as poisonous mushrooms only in 1984, while in West Germany, as such, she was listed as early as 1978.

Furthermore, over time was not adequate to control the marketing of their markets.So, until the end of the 80s, not all traders know that svinushki it is forbidden to eat.To tell the truth, even if today they can be found in the markets.

We hope that you will be careful.Now you know about what mushrooms are dangerous svinushki.Poisonous or not they are, we are told.
