Your/their claim does not validate a prophet or religion.
From your own link :
the same truffles have been also reported to be used in folk medicine in sub-Saharan Africa and Middle East to treat skin and eye diseases, for example, Trichoma [16, 28].
16:
- G. Hussain and I. M. Al-Ruqaie, “Occurrence, chemical composition and nutritional value of truffles: an overview,” Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, vol. 2, no. 2, pp. 510–514, 1999.
- M. A. Al-Marzooky, “Truffles in eye disease,” in Proceedings of the International Islamic Medicine, pp. 353–357, Kuwait, 1981.
As you can see, both the articles are clearly written by Muslim authors. I don't need to look further to guess that the folk medicine they're referring to existed after the Islamic prophet.
