Sometimes, the things that stir the most debate aren't sweeping policy changes, but whether or not you have to pay a dollar to park near Brassica. The post An Off the Rails Roundup appeared first on The Confluence Cast.
Welcome back listeners! Join us as we catch up on wintry weather and things happening in the field. The theme of the day seems to be strawberry issues and cold-damaged crops. Agents from around the state discuss some of the disease issues coming from the strawberry fields as well as plant health. The state experienced some bitter cold back in January, and most areas are seeing signs out in the field. Brassica crops may be showing some reddening leaves and stunted growth. Join in to hear updates from all regions of the state as well as a brief climate-smart and trial update. We also discuss a highlighted question of the week from the SC Grower Blog, which is very timely based on the discussion from agents. Thanks for joining us in 2025!
Transcript: Hello, this is Pastor Don of Christ Redeemer Church. Welcome to The Kingdom Perspective. Generosity is at the very heart of the gospel of Jesus Christ. So, it is not surprising this same Jesus who generously gave His life for our redemption is the same one who made a world so abundantly diverse. Jesus wove abundance and generosity into the very fabric of His creation. The Bible tells us that God created a universe with abundant potential—a multiplying and reproducing creation filled with a diversity of plants and animals. God made hundreds of thousands of plants “bearing fruit…yielding seed according to their kind” (Genesis 1:12). Likewise, He commanded the millions of animal species He made to be “fruitful and multiply and fill” the earth (Genesis 1:22). This is why a farmer can start with a few basic seeds and animals and multiply not only enough food to feed the world but also develop an endless diversity of new subspecies. Did you know, for instance, that broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower and kale are all cultivated from the same basic species (i.e., Brassica oleracea)? Similarly, all the variety of dog breeds were hidden in the one grey wolf. All dog breeds are just domestications of the same species (Canis lupus). From Great Danes to chihuahuas, the inherent abundance of God's creation is on display. Thus, creation itself is a rebuke to any stinginess or small-mindedness. Neither God nor His creation is marked by such tight-fistedness…and neither should we. Something to think about from The Kingdom Perspective. And God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth.” And it was so. The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening and there was morning, the third day. And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years, and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth.” And it was so. And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day. And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.” So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day…~ Genesis 1:1-23 (ESV)
Luciano Luciani"La rapa"Regina delle radiciEdizioni ETSwww.edizioniets.comUn libricino che, attraverso la storia, la letteratura, la toponomastica e la paremiologia, intende restituire l'onore alla Brassica campestris, ovvero, la rapa. Questa umile radice che, prima dell'arrivo della patata dal Nuovo Mondo, ha contribuito a sfamare per secoli generazioni e generazioni di Europei e non solo. Sarà che nasce dalla terra e nella terra; saranno le sue forme sgraziate e grottesche o che, nel corso dei secoli, essa s'è andata connotando come cibo per gente povera e bestie, tant'è che la rapa ha visto crescere attorno a sé una fama di ottusità e dabbenaggine che non accenna a estinguersi. Ancora ai nostri giorni, infatti, annoveriamo il diffusissimo epiteto “testa di rapa” che non è certo percepito come un complimento e non si dimentichi, poi, il modo di dire “cavare il sangue da una rapa”.Luciano Luciani (Roma, 1947), docente di italiano e latino, ha insegnato nei licei di Capannori, Forte dei Marmi, Viareggio e Lucca.

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA III TRIMESTRE DEL 2024Narrado por: Gustavo PérezDesde: Málaga, EspañaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchJUEVES 25 DE JULIOLA PARÁBOLA DEL CRECIMIENTO DE LA SEMILLA Lee Marcos 4:26 al 29. ¿Cuál es el foco primario de esta parábola? La mayor parte del Evangelio de Marcos tiene paralelos en Mateo, en Lucas o en ambos. Pero ese no es el caso de esta parábola, que aparece solo en Marcos. El foco temático de esta breve parábola es el proceso de crecimiento. Jesús indica que así es como funciona el Reino de Dios. Los humanos tienen una parte en el proceso, pero el crecimiento real es obra de Dios. No es un proceso interminable. La historia termina abruptamente con la maduración del grano. Así es como la segunda venida de Cristo pondrá súbitamente fin a la historia de nuestro mundo. Lee Marcos 4:30 al 32. ¿Cuál es el énfasis importante en la parábola de la semilla de mostaza? Esta parábola destaca cómo algo tan diminuto crece hasta convertirse en algo notablemente grande. Las semillas de mostaza miden entre 1 y 2 milímetros de diámetro. La planta descrita aquí es probablemente la mostaza negra (Brassica nigra), que tiene semillas muy pequeñas (más de setecientas de ellas juntas pesan apenas un gramo). Aunque no son las más diminutas del mundo, son bastante pequeñas, especialmente en comparación con la planta que producen, que puede alcanzar una altura de tres metros. Jesús destaca el hecho de que aun los pájaros anidan en sus ramas. Esta última referencia alude a Salmos 104:12 y a Daniel 4:10 al 12. El Salmo 104 se refiere al poder de Dios cuando creó el mundo, y Daniel 4 representa a Nabucodonosor como un gran árbol debajo del cual todos encuentran sombra y alimento. El punto que Jesús destaca es que el Reino de Dios, que fue muy pequeño al comienzo, llegará a ser grande e impresionante. En los días de Jesús, la gente pudo haber mirado con desprecio al predicador galileo itinerante, cubierto de polvo y con su pequeño grupo de discípulos, pero el tiempo ha mostrado que su reino de gracia sigue expandiéndose por todo el mundo. “Y este evangelio del reino será predicado en todo el mundo, por testimonio a todas las naciones, y entonces vendrá el fin” (Mat. 24:14). Considera cómo era la “iglesia” cuando Jesús hizo esa predicción. ¿Por qué esta es una predicción tan notable y reafirmadora de la fe para nosotros?

Броколите, брюкселското зеле, зелето, карфиолът имат уникални хранителни стойности и ние ги възприемаме като отделни зеленчуци. А всъщност произлизат от едно и също растение - Brassica oleracea. Освен за “бащата на салата” Никола и Петко разговарят за якутските коне от мразовития север, които са претърпели невероятни биологични трансформации, за да оцелеят при изключително ниските температури. Прочути със своята издръжливост, тази дребна порода коне са придобили способността да забавят метаболизма си и да намалят топлината на тялото си и така да оцеляват при температури от - 90 градуса. В този епизод еволюцията не спира да изненадва Никола и Петко и те продължават с намерен нов вид риба, наречен “gar”, който се развива по-бавно от всички останали – група риби. Според учените геномите на “gar” се променят толкова бавно, че два вида gar, които са се отделили един от друг преди повече от 105 милиона години, все още биха могли да се кръстосат и да дадат плодородно потомство. === Допълнителни бележки към епизода: ratio.bg/podcast/548 Гледайте и на видео: https://youtu.be/uh07zVFenFw Ако това, което правим, ви харесва, вижте как можете да подкрепите Ratio тук: ratio.bg/support/

Many gardeners grow Brassica family veggies such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts and kale. I also like to experiment with two other Brassicas: kohlrabi and rapini. Kohlrabi looks a bit like a space satellite. It's low growing and forms an edible, handball sized, swollen stem near the soil surface. That's the part you eat. It was discovered in the 16th century and is popular in Europe. The classic varieties, such as 'Quickstar', are green. I like growing the purple colored, 'Kohlibri' and the white skinned, 'Beas'. There are some varieties, such as 'Superschmelz', that can grow 14 inches across. That's a lot of kohlrabi to eat! The flavor of kohlrabi is like a slightly sweet turnip and I eat it raw in dips or roast it with root crops. Plant now and stagger your plantings or you'll get lots of kohlrabi all maturing at once. Once harvested the plant is destroyed. Another unusual Brassica is broccoli raab or rapini. This leafy vegetable hails from the Mediterranean region and from China. The name means “little turnip” in Italian. Like kohlrabi, it's related to turnips, but has a small, broccoli-like head and the leaves and small stems are cooked and eaten as well. The flavor can be slightly bitter, and very robust. I like it steamed, roasted, grilled and sauteed. It's great with pasta or with potatoes. Rapini grows best in cool temperatures, so now is the time to start growing it. It only takes 45 days after seeding to harvest the young plants. Thin plants to 8 inches apart and harvest before the flowers bolt for the mildest flavor.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Farmers in Northern Ireland have been left wondering what's next after a proposal to cull badgers to prevent the spread of bovine TB was quashed by a court last month, which found the consultation behind the cull was flawed. At the time, the Ulster Farmers' Union described the decision as "a major blow for livestock farmers"...saying it could now "take years before the issue of the TB reservoir in wildlife is addressed." The Northern Ireland Badger Group - which brought the legal challenge alongside Wild Justice - said "a farmer-led cull would inflict immense suffering on great numbers of healthy badgers." Farmers in England are being warned that even if they take up multiple options to 'stack' Government payments for environmental work under the new post-Brexit support scheme, they will not receive the same amount of funding they used to get, under the EU's Basic Payments Scheme. That's according to new research by the Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board, which found taking up multiple payments can bring stability to farm incomes, but that farmers have to judge how much it might cost them to take up the work, before committing to it. And brassica crops like cabbages or cauliflowers face many challenges in the field. Pests, diseases and the weather can all reduce yields and affect their quality, which can cause farmers to lose income. We hear from scientists at the University of Warwick, who have been working to develop new varieties which can be more resistant to difficult weather conditions, disease and pests.

I Ukraina sommaren 1943 plundrar ett SS-kommando på uppdrag av Heinrich Himmler 18 odlingsanläggningar på jakt efter fröer i världens första genbank. Fröerna skulle bli grunden till det tusenåriga rikets superfröer för att föda det onda imperiet.Fröerna hade samlats in av den berömde växtförädlaren Nikolaj Vavilov på expeditioner runt om i världen. Men Vavilov hade dött i Stalins fängelser i början av året, eftersom han inte ville underordna vetenskapen den sovjetiska ideologin.I denna nymixade repris av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med journalisten och författaren Jens Nordqvist som är aktuell med boken Den stora fröstölden - Svält, plundring och mord i växtförädlingens århundrade.Den moderna växtförädlingen tog fart i början av 1900-talet med återupptäckten av den österrikiske munken Gregor Mendels teorier kring korsning av växter från 1860-talet. Världens växande befolkning behövde efter mer tåliga och högavkastande spannmål och grönsaker.Tyskland, Sovjetunionen, USA och Sverige var de länder som i början av 1930-talet kommit längs i arbetet med växtförädling. En gemensam nämnare var det statliga stödet, och inblandningen, i växtförädlingen.Nikolaj Vavilov såg den ständigt föränderliga biologiska mångfalden som resultatet av ett samspel mellan människan och naturen. Trots att blomkål, grönkål, brysselkål, vitkål, rödkål och broccoli ser helt olika ut stammar de alla från samma art, vildkål (Brassica oleracea). I människans tjänst har den vilda arten utvecklats till vitt skilda grönsaker. Växtförädlingens historia var full av storartade bedrifter.Nikolaj Vavilov stötte på många hinder i sin kamp mot svälten. Han och de andra växtförädlarna kämpade mot torka och väta, skadedjur och virussjukdomar. I hans väg stod även Lysenkos pseudovetenskap, brutala partibossar och politiska tjallare. Ändå var han en obotlig optimist. Han trodde verkligen att förnuftet till slut skulle segra och han trodde på växtförädlingens förmåga. Naturen var rik nog att föda människan, och den vetenskap han älskade mer än livet gav honom de redskap som behövdes för att resurserna skulle kunna nyttjas.Nazityskland har slängt avundsjuka blickar på Sovjetunionens växtförädlingsprogram. Utan en livsmedelssektor som kunde försörja det tyska riket och dess militärapparat skulle expansionen österut aldrig gå att genomföra.Ledare för SS:s frökommando är den unge växtförädlaren och SS-officeren Heinz Brücher, som med hjälp av de ryska fröerna ska ta fram nya supergrödor. Nazisterna bedriver redan en omfattande växtförädling i flera koncentrationsläger, bland annat Auschwitz.I krigets slutskede gömmer Brücher de värdefulla fröerna för att senare kunna användas. Med hjälp av just frösamlingen vill han köpa sig fri lejd till tryggheten i Sverige. Musik: Po dolinam i po vzgoriam av S. Alimov och T.

Melissa and Wythe catch up with their friend and former co-host, artist and scholar of food agriculture, Allie Wist. Allie is currently completing an interdisciplinary arts Ph.D. at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute with a focus on the senses, the Anthropocene, and environmental archives. We talk about her work studying how plants' odors are changing due to climate disruption, the future of sustainable pest management, how rising temperatures affect different plants, the future of coffee production, and much more. Overall, we discuss how changes in agriculture due to climate disruption will affect cuisine in different ways—creating more and more “matter out of place” (and out of time) in food and agriculture. What types of smells and tastes will future consumers accept as delicious, or understand as “real,” given massive shifts in agriculture due to climate?Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

For as long as I can remember I've believed that marigolds were the best companion plant for everything. Despite the naysayers touting time and time again that it was all conjecture, I stood by the research I could find that proved otherwise. If you listened to last week's Focal Point Friday episode you understand the position I've found myself in after all these years of companion planting marigolds in and amongst all of my garden plants. To my way of thinking, as long as there wasn't a proven detriment to the paring then even if the marigolds weren't preventing the pests in my garden, they would at least be attracting the beneficial insects that either were good pollinators or that actually preyed on the insects I didn't want hanging around. And many marigolds have a strong scent and I hoped this would also serve to confuse those pests that plague my crops. Do I still believe all these things? Yes. I will go to my grave defending marigolds as good companion plants because I have the science-backed research to show those benefits. I, as always, will link to boatloads of research in the show notes so you, too, can nerd out about some plant science. But, have I had to take a step back and do a little more research about my beloved companion before I continue to make recommendations to people in their gardens? You betcha. Because science is always evolving and so are we as gardeners and one of my favorite mantras is we don't know what we don't know. And sometimes we just gotta admit when we're wrong.

The brassica family includes cole crops, descendants of the mustard family and wild cabbages. This includes broccoli, cauliflower, romanesco, kale, brussels sprouts, cabbage, and collards.(cabbage is actually a member of the mustard family- but we lump it into brassicas!)Soil and TemperatureThese crops prefer well drained soil, kept moist. The seeds require slight warmth to germinate at 65 degrees Fahrenheit or more, but prefer to grow in cool conditions. If grown in peak summer, and not provided with cooling shade, they'll bolt. Bolting means going to seed, or sending up flower heads before a true crop is produced for harvest.Tip: Know your growing environment! If your temperatures where you are seeding stay in the 60-70 range you may not need any bottom heat for germination. If you do use heat mats (and we do!) just remember to remove the trays when you have germination. Forgetting to do so can contribute to weak and leggy seedlings. When to Sow and TransplantSow 6-8 weeks before last date of frost in seed trays. Direct sow when temperatures are warmer. Can be transplanted out three to two weeks before last frost date when left unprotected. If row cover or a hoop house is provided, can transplant into the garden much earlier.Tip: Grow where you have NOT grown like crops in the past couple of years- this goes for the whole brassica family. It is safe to generalize the statement that brassicas want a soil pH of about 6-7.Tip: I have found over the years that crops like broccoli and cabbage enjoy a little “extra love” when the plants are in your garden and roughly 4-5 inches tall. We side dress with some well aged compost. Growing and HarvestingHarvest broccoli and cauliflower when heads reach roughly 5” across, variety dependent. To blanch cauliflower heads, tie the leaves residing directly below the head together above the crown. This will blanch the cauliflower for a whiter color. According to some folks, as brussels sprouts grow, leaves can be pruned off to allow more sunlight to reach the small cabbage heads along the stalk. This is said to increase sprout size. Cabbage should be harvested before the head splits, usually at around 6” in size (again variety dependent).KaleNote the kale experiment PerennialTroubleshooting: Any damage (usually pest related or rough handling when removing pests) to the central growing point can lead to a stunted or no head growth. The outer leaves will still grow so it may seem “okay” but they too will be tough and non-edible. Perennial choices exist for brassicas:Angela purchases her's here: https://plantingjustice.org/product-category/perennial-tree-kales-collards/9 Star Broccoli (bushing growth habit and is white like cauliflower)Tree CollardsWalking Stick KaleDaubenton's KaleKosmik Perennial KalePests: Slugs, snails, cabbage mothsTo deter cabbage moths, use row cover before moths appear throughout the growing season-Companion planting broccoli with garlic, chives and nasturtium helps to deter cabbage moths. Plant thickly.Mulching the garden is great but leave a small bit of soil exposed around the stem of brassicas to avoid slug and snail accessTip: Spend 10 minutes a day with a morning tea or coffee and pick off any cabbage worms (small green worm like terrible creatures) and dispose.

Broccoli Reduces Your Risk of Four Major Diseases University of Illinois, June 23, 2022 It's one of the most advantageous veggies you can eat, and love it or hate it, broccoli offers an array of health benefits. University of Illinois researchers have identified candidate genes controlling the accumulation of phenolic compounds in broccoli. Consumption of phenolic compounds, including certain flavonoids, is associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease, type II diabetes, asthma, and cancer. Sulforaphane in broccoli can also help to prevent or slow the progress of one of the most common forms of arthritis. Scientists have also discovered that broccoli protects the skin against the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. Many studies have shown that a diet rich in vegetables -- particularly brassica vegetables such as broccoli -- is linked to decreased risk of heart disease and stroke. The researchers crossed two broccoli lines and tested their progeny in terms of total phenolic content and their ability to neutralize oxygen radicals in cellular assays. They then used a genetic technique called quantitative trait locus analysis to search for the genes involved in generating phenolics in the most promising progeny. By identifying the genes involved in accumulating these compounds, the researchers are one step closer to breeding broccoli and related Brassica vegetables like kale and cabbage with mega-doses of phenolic compounds. The good news is that phenolic compounds are flavorless and stable, meaning the vegetables can be cooked without losing health-promoting qualities. Once these vegetables are consumed, the phenolic compounds are absorbed and targeted to certain areas of the body or concentrated in the liver. Flavonoids spread through the bloodstream, reducing inflammation through their antioxidant activity. "These are things we can't make ourselves, so we have to get them from our diets," Juvik says. "The compounds don't stick around forever, so we need to eat broccoli or some other Brassica vegetable every three or four days to lower the risk of cancers and other degenerative diseases." Can Chronic Cellphone Use Hinder your Infant's Development? Environmental Health Trust, June 23, 2022 The two most important communicative mechanisms a newborn innately has to navigate his world are eye gaze and crying. From birth, newborns are constantly developing speech, language and communication skills with every response they command from their caregiver. As early as 5 days old, an infant can tailor his cries to reflect hunger, wetness, or discomfort as well as differentiate between mother and caregiver. Additionally, very early on newborns and infants develop prelinguistic skills: eye gaze (signaling a cue for communication) and joint attention – the ability of an infant to rest his or her gaze on a object at the same time the caregiver is looking at the same object. It is speculated that eye gaze between baby and mother is one of the most important prelinguistic skills to occur before verbal communication develops. However, excessive cell phone usage can work to hinder the communicative rhythm and bonding experience that new mothers and infants work to establish, especially within the first six months. Communicative cues can be easily missed and trying to decode differences in newborn cries (hunger vs wet diaper) can become very difficult. As it is so important for new mothers to pay attention to different cries, constant distraction from a cell phone can alter the way the other perceives the cry, thus making it more difficult to decode. Infants are so intuitive early on, that even the slightest delay in response to a coo or a cry can alter the way they perceive their world. Additionally, if a mother is perusing high-emotion content that is so pertinent in Facebook and social media, the overflow of emotion may inadequately color her response to the infant. Breastfeeding can also be affected by a constant need to search the web or pursue Facebook, taking away from a significant bonding period for mother and baby, according to Erin Odom. Physically, the mother may be present but mentally they are “somewhere else”. Many mothers use the cellphone to pass the time during the long nursing/feeding sessions of early infancy. However, infants are highly communicative during feeding, and texting and social media, when so engrossing, can distract a mother from the needs of the infant. Chronic cell phone usage such as texting and social media usage could absolutely hinder infant development as a result of missed cues on the part of the mother. The early months of a newborn who continuously has to wait for mother while looking at the cellphone before responding, to cry initiation for communication or other cues, the brain's connections will actually reorganize around this delay, later dampening the development of instinctual communication between mother and infant. Yoga And Meditation Could Potentially Reverse The Genetic Effects Of Stress Coventry University (UK), Antwerp University (Belgium), Radboud University (Netherlands), June 21, 2022 A review of multiple studies focusing on the effects of mindfulness practices like yoga and meditation has found that these efforts may have the potential to reverse genetic expressions of stress. As the analysis, published in the journal Frontiers in Immunology, explains: While some MBIs, such as yoga, Tai Chi, and Qigong, have a strong physical component, others like meditation and mindfulness, breath regulation techniques, and the relaxation response (RR) are mainly sedentary. Despite the variability in these techniques, they all seem to produce various psychological benefits on healthy and clinical populations, such as the reduction of perceived stress , the alleviation of depression, decreases in anxiety, or to help in coping with a chronic medical disease. However, it is less clear what are the mechanisms underpinning the self-reported benefits of MBIs. Noting that there is some speculation that “MBIs increase gray matter in the brain regions related to emotion regulation, learning, memory, self-referential processes, and perspective taking,” they acknowledged the evidence is not conclusive and set out to delve deeper into the genetic expressions of stress and how MBIs may affect them. The review analyzed 18 studies “that used gene expression analysis in research on meditation and related MBIs [mind-body interventions].” Ultimately, they found that “meditation and related MBIs [were associated with] downregulation of NF-κB-targeted genes, which can be understood as the reversal of the molecular signature of the effects of chronic stress.”h useful information unless the relationship between gene expression and psychological variables is directly explored.” Curcumin-piperine combo may support heart health for diabetics: Study Baqiyatallah University of Medical Science (Iran), June 25, 2022 A combination supplement containing curcuminoids plus piperine from black pepper may support heart health for diabetics by improving the levels and functionality of cholesterol, says a new study. The combination reduced total cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol levels, and improved levels of Lp(a) [Lipoprotein(a)], a structural component of LDL. “Although elevated Lp(a) has been considered as an important risk factor for premature atherosclerotic CVD for quite a long time independently of LDL-C and non-HDL-C levels, until very recently, the possibilities of influencing Lp(a) were extremely limited,” wrote scientists from Iran, Croatia and the USA in Complementary Therapies in Medicine . “Hence, this finding that curcuminoids as naturally occurring dietary supplements can decrease elevated Lp(a) in patients with [type 2 diabetes] is very important since such supplements are becoming more and more popular and attractive to the patients.” On the other hand, the curcumin-piperine combination significantly increased HDL levels by 1.56 mg/dL, compared to only 0.2 mg/dL in the placebo group. Parkinson's is partly an autoimmune disease, study finds Columbia University, June 21, 2022 Researchers have found direct evidence that autoimmunity—in which the immune system attacks the body's own tissues—plays a role in Parkinson's disease, the neurodegenerative movement disorder. The findings raise the possibility that the death of neurons in Parkinson's could be prevented by therapies that dampen the immune response. The study, led by scientists at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) and the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, was published in Nature. "The idea that a malfunctioning immune system contributes to Parkinson's dates back almost 100 years," said study co-leader David Sulzer, PhD, professor of neurobiology (in psychiatry, neurology and pharmacology) at CUMC. "But until now, no one has been able to connect the dots. Our findings show that two fragments of alpha-synuclein, a protein that accumulates in the brain cells of people with Parkinson's, can activate the T cells involved in autoimmune attacks. "These findings, however, could provide a much-needed diagnostic test for Parkinson's disease, and could help us to identify individuals at risk or in the early stages of the disease." Scientists once thought that neurons were protected from autoimmune attacks. However, in a 2014 study, Dr. Sulzer's lab demonstrated that dopamine neurons (those affected by Parkinson's disease) are vulnerable because they have proteins on the cell surface that help the immune system recognize foreign substances. As a result, they concluded, T cells had the potential to mistake neurons damaged by Parkinson's disease for foreign invaders. The new study found that T cells can be tricked into thinking dopamine neurons are foreign by the buildup of damaged alpha-synuclein proteins, a key feature of Parkinson's disease. "In most cases of Parkinson's, dopamine neurons become filled with structures called Lewy bodies, which are primarily composed of a misfolded form of alpha-synuclein," said Dr. Sulzer. Vegetarian diets produce fewer greenhouse gases and increase longevity, say new studies Loma Linda Health University, June 25, 2022 Consuming a plant-based diet results in a more sustainable environment and reduces greenhouse gas emissions, while improving longevity, according to new research from Loma Linda University Health. Based on findings that identified food systems as a significant contributor to global warming, the study focuses on the dietary patterns of vegetarians, semi-vegetarians and non-vegetarians to quantify and compare greenhouse gas emissions, as well as assess total mortality. The mortality rate for non-vegetarians was almost 20 percent higher than that for vegetarians and semi-vegetarians. On top of lower mortality rates, switching from non-vegetarian diets to vegetarian diets or even semi-vegetarian diets also helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The vegetarian diets resulted in almost a third less emissions compared to the non-vegetarian diets. Modifying the consumption of animal-based foods can therefore be a feasible and effective tool for climate change mitigation and public health improvements, the study concluded. "The takeaway message is that relatively small reductions in the consumption of animal products result in non-trivial environmental benefits and health benefits," said Sam Soret, Ph.D., MPH, associate dean at Loma Linda University School of Public Health and co-author of the studies. "The study analyzed more than 73,000 participants. The level of detail we have on food consumption and health outcomes at the individual level makes these findings unprecedented,” Soret said.

Arrange the brussels sprouts, cut side down, in the marinade to help it soak in.When the oven has heated up, give the brussels sprouts one last stir through the marinade. Wearing an oven mitt, take the hot tray from the oven, line it with baking paper, then pop the brussels sprouts onto the hot tray, from outside in, using a pair of tongs in your other hand to turn them cut side down again; reserve the remaining marinade in the bowl.Roast the sprouts for 10 minutes, or until the top leaves are basically burnt.Pour the peanut oil into your left-over marinade to loosen it off, then drizzle over the roasted sprouts.Toss them into a bowl and smugly serve, scattered with peanuts and chopped red chilli if you like. These sprouts are sure to turn even the most bullish Brassica denier into a believer.Tips:Preheating the tray helps give more of a golden crust on the sprouts.Feel free to skip lining the tray before using if you like to live dangerously – it'll give you more colour on the sprouts, but will take some cleaning.Soaking the stains in vinegar and bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) followed by a good scrub should do it.I like to use an appropriately sized storage vessel for marinading purposes, so that I can pop the leftovers in there and save on washing up!If you decide to give the marinade a whirl with lamb, try using lamb eye fillet rather than rump, and pull back on the honey; 1 tablespoon should suffice.Dietaries: Sub in maple syrup instead of honey to turn this one fully plant-based.

About a month ago, Tufts University came out with their Food Compass, a nutrient profiling system created to assess the healthfulness of foods. Unfortunately, they missed the mark. For example, did you know that chocolate Lucky Charms are more than twice as healthy for you as ground beef? Today's episode features all of my thoughts about the new food guidelines that were created to help consumers, food companies, and public health officials produce healthier (?) foods, and why this system in particular probably has a hidden agenda. TLDR: This food scoring system isn't perfect, and it completely vilifies red meat and fat. Which doesn't have scientific basis. But you know, whatever sells. I hope you enjoy this episode!
