Causing stress for potatoes

New method of producing functional foods that you can make yourself to improve health and prevent diseases: Causing stress on plants.

Agronomists at the Obichiro City University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine (in Hokkaido Region) shocked the representatives of the American Chemical Society's annual meeting when they reported that they had prepared pharmaceuticals. The product cures severe illnesses and rejuvenates the head with just a normal potato.

For many years a lot of research around the world for antioxidants, protect cells from virus invasion, treat symptoms of poisoning, stress and disease prevention . Most of these substances in vegetables.

The most effective antioxidants are poliphenol, found in wild strawberries, grapes, red wine, pomegranates, carrots and green tea. They are often natural coloring agents for fruits and vegetables and are used to prevent cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes and many other diseases.

But because the rate is too low, their cost becomes quite expensive. Scientists have found a way to enrich poliphenols in common products. They created tomatoes and purple carrots, orange or blue cabbage. All of these vegetables and fruits are based on the application of gene technology or artificial selection methods over generations.

Japanese scientists found that these precious poliphenol levels increased markedly when fruits and vegetables were . stressed. For example, when they develop, they are dry, tortured, beaten .

They enriched poliphenol in potatoes in many ways to increase poliphenol content in a very short time. For example, they cause electrical shock or direct them to ultrasound waves.

They brought potatoes into salt water for about 10 seconds, then blew ionized air into them for 10, 20, 30 minutes. They directed the ultrasound waves into 5-10 minutes. As a result, the concentration of poliphenol increased by 20% and other antioxidants increased by 60%.

According to the researchers, their invention can bring about huge profits for the farming industry , because the current trend is very concerned about functional foods, bringing health benefits. and prevent diseases.

You can even grow your own garden, like ' anti-cancer ' for example, for everyday use. Of course, if you become a mass movement, people will produce and supply specialized devices to ' injure' vegetables to increase the antioxidant content such as ultrasound to People can make their own functional products as they want.
