Pyrrolizidine alkaloid levels in dried and deep-frozen spices and herbs too high

2 days ago

Pyrrolizidine alkaloid levels in dried and deep-frozen spices and herbs too high Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PA) are natural constituents detected all over the world in more than 350 plant species and suspected to occur in more than 6,000. Plants produce them as a defence against predators. Out of more than 660 known PA and similar compounds, the 1,2-unsaturated PA in particular have a health-damaging potential. Consequently, they are undesired in foods and feeds. ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png ...

Keep your placenta healthy by exercising while pregnant New research found a possible explanation for the benefits of maternal exercise on fetal development, in obese mothers: it's down to improved placental function, which prevents the fetus from growing too big, and also better metabolism in the mothers. ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png #Nutrition #Research ...
