A method of extracting active ingredients in mushrooms includes following steps: crushing a mushroom to obtain a crude mushroom crush; mixing the crude mushroom crush with deionized water to obtain a crude crush mixture; adding the crude crush mixture into a subcritical fluid extractor and extracting the crude crush mixture to obtain a crude mushroom extract; centrifuging the crude mushroom extract to harvest a first supernatant and a mushroom residue; mixing the mushroom residue with deionized water and a cellulase enzyme to obtain a reaction mixture; adding the reaction mixture into a high-pressure hydrolysis reactor and extracting the reaction mixture to obtain a hydrolysate; centrifuging the hydrolysate to obtain a second supernatant; and combining the first supernatant and the second supernatant, and then concentrating the combined first and second supernatants to obtain a mushroom extraction solution.
