Environmental Impact of Genetically Modified Crops

The genetic modification of crops continues to be the subject of intense debate, and opinions are often strongly polarised. Environmental Impact of Genetically Modified Crops addresses the major concerns of scientists, policy makers, environmental lobby groups and the general public regarding this controversial issue, from an editorially neutral standpoint. While the main focus is on environmental impact, food safety issues, for both humans and animals are also considered. The book concludes with a discussion on the future of agricultural biotechnology in the context of sustainability, natural resource management and future global population and food supply.

Enzyme Nutrition

Why is eating food in its natural state, unprocessed and unrefined, so vital to the maintenance of good health? What is lacking in our modern diet that makes us so susceptible to degenerative disease? What natural elements in food may play a key role in unlocking the secrets of life extension? These fascinating questions, and many more, are answered in Enzyme Nutrition. Written by one of America's pioneering biochemists and nutrition researchers, Dr. Edward Howell, Enzyme Nutrition presents the most vital nutritional discovery since that of vitamins and minerals--food enzymes. Our digestive organs produce some enzymes internally, however food enzymes are necessary for optimal health and must come from uncooked foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables, raw sprouted grains, unpasteurized dairy products, and food enzyme supplements. Enzyme Nutrition represents more than fifty years of research and experimentation by Dr. Howell. He shows us how to conserve our enzymes and maintain internal balance. As the body regains its strength and vigor, its capacity to maintain its normal weight, fight disease, and heal itself is enhanced.

Epigenetics in Crop Improvement: Safeguarding Food Security in an Ever-Changing Climate

Epigenetics encompasses all changes in gene expression that occur without alterations to the DNA sequence. These modifications involve DNA methylation, histone modifications, and ncRNA pathways. Plants have evolved remarkable resilience to environmental challenges mediated by epigenetic modifications rather than genetic variation. Epigenetic variation provides a means for designing crop varieties with enhanced resilience to abiotic stresses, such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures. By understanding how epigenetic information systems interact among them and with other canonical genetic pathways, we can develop crops better equipped to withstand the challenges of climate change, ultimately contributing to global food security. Epigenetics in Crop Improvement: Safeguarding Food Security in an Ever-Changing Climate is primarily a comprehensive guide that explores the role of epigenetics in plant growth, development, and adaptation. This book also offers a valuable resource for anyone looking to investigate and develop innovative strategies for enhancing crop resilience and productivity in the face of climate change.

Epistenology: Wine as Experience (Arts and Traditions of the Table: Perspectives on Culinary History)

We think we know how to appreciate wine—trained connoisseurs take dainty sips in sterile rooms and provide ratings based on objective knowledge and technical expertise. In Epistenology, Nicola Perullo vigorously challenges this approach, arguing that it is the enjoyment of drinking wine as an active and participatory experience that matters.Perullo argues that wine comes to life not in the abstract space of the professional tasting but in the real world of shared experiences; wines can change in these encounters, and drinkers along with them. Just as a winemaker is not simply a producer but a nurturer, a wine is fully known only through an encounter among a group of drinkers in a specific place and time. Wine is not an object to analyze but an experience to make, creatively opening up new perceptual possibilities for settings, cuisines, and companions.The result of more than twenty years of research and practical engagement, Epistenology presents a new paradigm for the enjoyment of wine and through it a philosophy based on participatory and relational knowledge. This model suggests a profound shift—not knowledge about but with wine. Interweaving philosophical arguments with personal reflections and literary examples, this book is a journey with wine that shows how it makes life more creative and free.

Ernährung bei Eisenmangel: Stoffwechsel - Bioverfügbarkeit - Diagnostik

Rund ein Viertel der Weltbevölkerung ist von Eisenmangel betroffen, als besondere Risikogruppe gelten Frauen im gebärfähigen Alter sowie Kinder und Jugendliche. Das Fachbuch beschäftigt sich mit den neuesten wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen rund um die Eisenversorgung des menschlichen Organismus mit natürlichen Lebensmittel. Dabei räumt es mit dem Irrglauben auf, dass pflanzliches Eisen weniger wertvoll ist als tierisches Eisen, indem es die Eisenaufnahme aus pflanzlichen Lebensmitteln über einen neu entdeckten Stoffwechselweg vorstellt. Daraus lassen sich neue Gesichtspunkte für Vegetarier und Veganer ableiten, die bislang zur Risikogruppe zählten. Des Weiteren widmet es sich den vielfältigen Diagnosemöglichkeiten eines Eisenmangels und beschreibt gängige Methoden zur Bestimmung der Bioverfügbarkeit von Eisen in Lebensmitteln. Neue Erkenntnisse über die Biochemie des Eisens im Hirnstoffwechsel, die Wechselwirkung von Eisen mit anderen Spurenelementen sowie praktische Hinweise für besondere Ernährungsweisen, Risikogruppen und Altersklassen und Kochrezepte mit einfachen Angaben zur Eisenaufnahme komplettieren das Werk. Das Buch richtet sich an Ernährungs- und Allgemeinmediziner, Ernährungs- und Lebensmittelwissenschafter, Diätologen, Apotheker und Ernährungsberater.

Ernährung, die große Herausforderung

Gesunde Ernährung ist zu einer großen Herausforderung geworden, da die Lebensmittelindustrie ihre wirtschaftlichen Vorteile aus den Lebensmitteln zieht. Wir leben in einer Zeit der Eile, in der man hauptsächlich verarbeitete Lebensmittel in den Supermärkten findet und unverarbeitete, authentische Lebensmittel von den Märkten verbannt worden sind. Man gelangt sehr schwer an diese Waren und sie sind häufig überteuert. Dieses Buch versucht ein wenig Licht ins Dunkel zu bringen und beschreibt wie man trotz Lebensmittelindustrie an gesunde Nahrungsmittel gelangt. Letztendlich haben die Konsumenten die Kraft all dies zu ändern.

Escape Your Weight

Last year, according to The Institute of Medicine, Americans spent in excess of $33 billion on weight-loss products and services. However, the economic cost of obesity in the USA was about $117 billion during this same time period.Obviously a dilemma exists. Why? If all we needed to do was take a magic pill, exercise 10 minutes a day, or eliminate carbs from our diet, as so many "Get-Thin-Quick" schemes suggest, then why are so many of us still vastly overweight?Because such easy schemes do not tell the whole story about what we need to do to get fit and stay fit. And because we're all different. We think differently, we eat differently, and we exercise (or don't) differently. So we need diet and exercise plans designed especially for us. Whether we're 10 pounds overweight or 25 pounds overweight. Whether we like to exercise or whether we loathe exercise. Whether we can stick to a diet six days a week or 3 days a week. Whether we can exercise every day or twice a week. Escape Your Weight gives you a choice of eating plans and exercise plans that fit you, your likes and dislikes, your strengths and your weaknesses.With expertly photographed exercise plans that are easy even for beginners, along with minimal, inexpensive equipment (no gym required), Escape Your Weight will explain what YOU need to do and what YOU need to eat to become slim and fit.

EssensWert - Werte als multidisziplinärer Sammelbegriff im Kontext von Ernährung: Eine Literaturarbeit (essentials)

In den aktuellen Diskursen um die Transformation des Ernährungssystems sind Werte omnipräsent. Jedoch werden sie dabei nicht immer ausdrücklich kenntlich gemacht. Häufig kommt es zu Be- und Abwertungen von Handlungen und Denkweisen, teils unter Heranziehung dichotomer Ernährungsnormen. Doch die Transformation bedingt einen konsensuell getragenen Wertewandel, der u. a. über Empathie und Mäßigung Lösungswege ebnet und das Wohlergehen aller adressiert. Dafür sind objektive Beobachtungen ohne normative Direktiven notwendig. Die Intention des vorliegenden Textes war daher die Auseinandersetzung mit verschiedenen Konzeptionen von Werten unterschiedlicher Disziplinen, um Reichweiten und Grenzen verschiedener Auffassungen im Ernährungskontext zu erörtern. Zur Information: Dies ist ein Open-Access-Buch.
