Mushroom benefits Bees with Research

This may be a more useful Link from someone that not only knows a lot about Mushrooms but also cites scientific research / trials to back up the claims that the Bees health does seem to improve whenever they can gain access to (certain types of) Mushrooms, from memory it also suggests that some components of the Mushroom are incorporated into the Hive, ... however IF your hive has been fumigated (as all the imported ones from the Far East are) then that may cause problems for the Bees long term health, in that they are unable to use Mushrooms (but fumigating hives takes us off topic, so I'll start a new Thread for that elsewhere....)
