Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family, and is closely related to cauliflower. Its cultivation originated in Italy. Broccolo, its Italian name, means “cabbage sprout.” Because of its different components, broccoli provides a range of tastes and textures, from soft and flowery (the floret) to fibrous and crunchy (the stem and stalk). Broccoli contains glucosinolates, phytochemicals which break down to compounds called indoles and isothiocyanates (such as sulphoraphane). Broccoli also contains the carotenoid, lutein. Broccoli is an excellent source of the vitamins K, C, and A, as well as folate and fiber. Broccoli is a very good source of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and the vitamins B6 and E.

” A Tooth Problem: Biomodification of Dentin Matrices as Novel Strategy for Dental Therapies”

Prof. Ana Bedran-Russo (UIC College of Dentistry)

“It is estimated that in the United States, 350 million dental restorations
(fillings) are placed every year in dental offices. Sixty percent of those restorations
replace existing failed restorative treatments. The primary reason for failure of
dental restorations is secondary caries (decay), indicative of increased permeability
and debonding between tooth and restorative biomaterial. Current dental adhesive
restorative systems rely on the micromechanical retentions of restorations by
infiltrations of hydrophilic and hydrophobic resins into a collagen-rich surface on
dentin. Our laboratory at UIC has focused on understanding the tooth
biochemistry/biomechanics and explored biomimetic approaches for innovative
restorative/regenerative therapies. Specifically the interactions of olygomeric
proanthocyanidins agents (OPC) with dentin matrices to improve mechanical
properties and reduced biodegradation rates. This presentation will provide (1)
overview of challenges in the harsh oral environment (2) limitations of current
dental therapies and (3) mechanisms of interactions of OPC with type I collagen,
proteoglycans and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).”

Jan.04 — There’s a new super food coming to juice cleanses near you, and it’s called the Maqui Berry. Like its predecessors, the Maqui Berry has ridiculous amounts of antioxidants and lots of the accompanying claims about its body-healing properties. Ashlee Vance, the host of Hello World, took a recent trip to the wine country outside of Santiago to see how the Maqui Berry is being processed by SouthAm Freeze Dry.
