See book keywords and concepts |  By far the worst offenders are spinach, rhubarb, tomatoes, collards, eggplant, beets, celery, summer squash, sweet potatoes, peanuts, almonds, blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, Concord grapes, parsley, and cocoa.
Avoid grapefruit juice, which studies show increases the risk of kidney stones.
Animal fat causes the body to excrete calcium, creating a build-up in the kidneys. Avoid all red meat, and limit your consumption of other animal products.
Avoid calcium overload by eliminating dairy products from your diet. | | Molasses, green leafy vegetables (with the exception of spinach), leeks, cashews, cherries, strawberries, dried fruits, figs, and eggs are all rich in iron.
Food to Avoid
• Spinach, rhubarb, tomatoes, and chocolate are high in oxalic acid, a substance that blocks the absorption of iron.
• If you're pregnant, you've already been advised to stay away from caffeine, which can harm the baby. Caffeine also inhibits iron absorption, as do carbonated sodas and dairy products.
• Do not take iron pills with meals that are high in fiber. | | Green leafy vegetables (except for spinach—see the note about oxalic acid under Food to Avoid in this section), leeks, cashews, cherries, strawberries, dried fruits, figs, kelp, and eggs are all excellent sources as well. If you're a vegetarian and can't eat calf's liver, include one or two servings of green leafy vegetables at every meal.
Blackstrap molasses is also rich in iron, so take a spoonful of it every day. Blackstrap molasses can usually be found next to the pancake syrup at your grocery store. Make sure to read the label carefully, as you don't want molasses that's been sulfured. |

Eggless Egg Salad
Even without the eggs, this dish is high in protein. |

See article keywords and concepts |  And, if some of these people could take yet another quantum leap of introspection, perhaps they could realize that there might be other berries that are also good for human beings, such as cranberries, raspberries, strawberries, acai, or pomegranate seeds.
But no, instead it's all about how can we exploit this naturally occurring chemical compound and use it to make some bucks for corporate investors. That's the way big pharma works. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Good sources are asparagus, avocados, beet greens, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cantaloupe, collards, dandelion greens, dulse, grapefruit, kale, lemons, mangoes, mustard greens, onions, oranges, green peas, pineapple, radishes, rose hips, spinach, strawberries, Swiss chard, tomatoes, turnip greens, and watercress. |

See book keywords and concepts |  The aforementioned berries have three to nine times as much ellagic acid as three other good sources—walnuts, strawberries, pecans— and as much as fifteen times the ellagic acid found in other fruits and nuts.
While the polyphenol amounts in certain juices can be quite high, the calorie count can be high, too. Whole fresh fruit will always have the lowest number of calories. Don't become so enthusiastic about polyphenols that you sip juice all day and develop a calorie overload. Get your polyphenol boost by mixing half water or seltzer and half 100 percent juice. |
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts |  Or how about a strawberry glaze that has no strawberries in it whatsoever and is made of corn syrup, artificial strawberry flavoring and artificial food coloring? Oops, I'm tripping over myself again. That already exists as well. Someone has beaten me to the punch with this brilliant food manufacturing idea.
Come to think of it, there are a lot of food products at the grocery store that really don't have any foods in them at all. They're basically just synthetic chemicals, colors, artificial flavors, fragrances, pretty packaging and hydrogenated or homogenized fats to give it some texture. |

Type: Xanthophylls
Xanthophylls are carotenoid compounds that contain hydroxyl groups, keto groups, or both.
Anthoxanthins act as antioxidants. Food sources include cabbage sprouts, cauliflower, and potatoes.
Beta-cryptoxanthin increases the activity of vitamin A and helps to protect against cervical cancer.
Canthaxanthin acts as an antioxidant, boosts immunity, slows the growth of cancer cells, and may help to prevent skin and breast cancers. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Lycopenes and strawberries Lower Risk, Especially for Aggressive and Extra-Prostatic PC. A dietary history of significant lycopene and/or strawberry consumption correlated with a lower risk of aggressive and extra-prostatic PC. ^ The lycopene source that was found to be most significant in most epidemiologic studies was the tomato, in the form of tomato sauce, stewed tomatoes, and pizza. |

See book keywords and concepts | | Food sources include cereal grains, citrus fruit, flaxseeds, licorice, parsley, strawberries, tomatoes, and vegetables.
Type: Daidzein
Daidzein is an estrogenlike compound that is formed from isoflavones. It helps to compensate for estrogen discharged from the body by the liver and the colon, lessening the effect of a decline in estrogen. It may help with bone formation and prevent and even reverse osteoporosis (bone thinning). Food sources include soy foods as well as alfalfa, beans, lentils, peanuts, peas, and sprouts.
Ipriflavones are synthesized from daidzein. |

The blueberry-supplemented group not only performed better than the others on the various rat brainteasers, they also showed actual improvements in coordination and balance. This was very impressive news indeed, as previously it was thought that degeneration due to aging was virtually irreversible. Dr. |

Watermelon
Very cooling thermal nature; sweet flavor; removes heat including summer heat problems; influences the heart, bladder, and stomach; builds body fluids; diuretic; moistens the intestines.

Potassium
Potassium is a mineral that helps to keep the heart beating regularly and has also been linked to depression. Mood upsets, fatigue, and weakness, all symptoms of depression, have been associated with low levels of the mineral. These problems can occur if there is not enough of the mineral inside the cells, even if there is enough potassium in the body fluids (outside the cells). | | The other nonlycopene product identified with significantly lower PC risk was strawberries.1^
The largest relevant dietary study, a prospective study in male health professionals, found that consumption of 2-4 servings of tomato sauce a week was associated with about a 35% risk reduction of total PC and a 50% reduction of advanced (extra-prostatic) PC. Tomato sauce was by far the strongest predictor of plasma lycopene levels in this study. | | Citrus, tomatoes, strawberries, and other fresh berries and fruits are also possible offenders. Supplemental digestive enzymes may be taken at meal time to assist the prompt breakdown of food into simpler hypoallergenic components. It has been suggested that liquid intake at meal time be minimized to avoid dilution and possible reduction in effectiveness of enzymes. (However, it is absolutely essential that allergic individuals remain well hydrated and this need must be balanced against the above suggestion. |

All sweeteners can be problematic, including honey, high fructose com syrup (which raises blood glucose levels), and fructose (which increases insulin resistance and triglycerides) (Bland 1983). Carbohydrates found in low-starch vegetables do not encourage a rise in blood glucose levels (e.g. |

Should We Label GE Products or Not?
Mandatory labeling unfortunately is not required by our government in spite of a recent survey showing 93% of the United States public favors labeling. This means there presently is no way you can tell exactly what you are eating. Similarly, a poll in Canada found 90% want GE labeling and so do 70% to 80% of the population in Europe and Asia. |
Ben-Erik van Wyk
See book keywords and concepts |  There is good evidence that the daily consumption of fresh fruits reduces the risk of diseases, including cancer. However, fruits have a high water content and a relatively low food value (low calories, typically 30 to 70 kcal per 100 g), so that they should always be combined with other foods in order to create a balanced diet. Some exceptions are banana (about 90 kcal), granadilla (95 kcal), avocado (160 kcal) and olives (420 kcal). |

See book keywords and concepts |  The next day a scientist, dressed somewhat unfortunately in a moon suit, sprayed the bacterium onto a small patch of strawberries that had survived. Frostban apparently worked, but the company dropped the project after deciding that opposition to GM products was already too widespread. They would never be able to market Frostban without a fight.
A second exotic defrosting idea was to insert the antifreeze gene from the Arctic flounder into a tomato, endowing it with frost damage resistance. |
