Conclusions
Myco-protein is of good nutritive value for human maintenance.
There was no evidence from blood analysis of adverse reactions to the
material.
There was no indication of intolerance to myco-protein.
3.1.2. Human acceptability and tolerance.
Four studies were conducted to assess acceptability of myco-protein as
a food and to identify any intolerance reaction which might have
occurred.
These studies involved a total of 339 subjects who consumed mycoprotein with intakes ranging from lOg to 40g (dry basis)per day .
(
225
Results
Only one subject dropped out of the study for
reasons unconnected with the treatments.
Clinical
Laboratory
Conclusions
The consumption of 18g/day of myco-protein produced no adverse
reactions indicative of intolerance or allergy.

Subjects/group
During the myco-protein phases 1 meal/day was given for the first 4
days, then 2 meals/day from day 5 to 16.
Choice of Subjects Based on medical examination, with blood and
urine analysis, and health questionnaire. Known
atopics, those with liver, kidney or gastrointestinal disease, pregnant or lactating women
were not allowed to participate.
