Oranges and Lemons Prevent Heart Disease, Liver Disease and Diabetes

[…]but have diets rich in fats, putting them at risk of developing cardiovascular disease, insulin resistance and abdominal obesity,” Ferreira explained. For the study, the team conducted an experiment with 50 mice, treating them with flavanones found in oranges, limes and lemons, or a high-fat diet. They focused on flavanones such as hesperidin, eriocitrin and eriodictyol. For a month, researchers gave groups either a standard diet, a high-fat diet, a high-fat diet plus hesperidin, a high-fat diet plus eriocitrin or a high-fat diet plus eriodictyol. The group who consumed high-fat diet without the flavanones showed increase in the levels of […]

Thank you Germany! 62-Mile Bicycle Highway That’s Completely Car Free.

[…]a Berlin bike autobahn plan- linking the city center with the southwest area- is also facing resistance, many see that this idea has real potential. The idea nonetheless has real potential for medium-length journeys, pushing the limits of frequent daily bike use out from the (now well-provided-for) inner city into the suburbs and wider regions. Munich isalready planning a network like this one, which will stretch from the historic center out along 14 protected two-lane paths through the suburbs into the surrounding lake land. Germany’s fourth city, Cologne, has a smaller plan for a similar bike highway out into its western exurbs. […]

LA TIMES: It’s getting clearer — the diet-cancer connection points to sugar and carbs

[…](we need insulin to live). Rather, it’s the insulin that remains at elevated (insulin resistance) levels which can promote the growth of tumors directly and indirectly. (And because elevated insulin directs our bodies to store fat, it can also be linked to the various ways the fat tissue itself is thought to contribute to cancer.) So, it seems the problem isn’t just eating too much but WHAT we are eating. Easily digestible carbohydrates in general, and sugar, in particular, can cause insulin levels to rise to abnormally high levels and remain elevated and THAT can promote the growth of tumors directly and indirectly.

Nutrients that are important for promoting the integrity of tissues in the midst of high levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 are Vitamin C, Zinc, Magnesium, flavonoids, and procyanidins. Angiogenesis: Forming New Blood Vessels Before cancer cells from a tumor can migrate into the bloodstream and spread throughout the body, they must first leave the confines of the tumor. While the MMP enzymes degrade the surrounding tissue and increase its permeability, the tumor begins to form unique blood vessels that serve two major functions. First, […]

Cannabis-Infused Wine – What’s In Store For The Future?

Did you know that infusing cannabis into wine has been practiced for thousands of years? Early records from the Han Dynasty in China point to the ganja and grape combo being used to knock out patients before surgery. In the United States, cannabis-infused wine was quietly developed in the 80s, in California, where “pot wine” was something wine makers would ferment and share with friends or at private gatherings. It was generally made with rosé wines, in unlabeled bottles, and quite expensive and the war on drugs made it a risky business. As marijuana laws are changing and make it more accessible, wine drinkers in states like California are increasingly […]
