[What is Siberian Ginseng?]

Eleutherococcus, also known as eleuthero or Siberian ginseng, grows in mountain forests and is native to eastern Asia including China, Japan, and Russia. Traditional Chinese Medicine has used eleutherococcus for reducing lethargy, fatigue, and low stamina as well as increasing endurance and resilience to environmental stresses. Eleutherococcus is considered an “adaptogen,” a term that describes herbs or other substances that, when ingested, appears to help an organism increase resistance to stress. There is strong evidenceEleutherococcus senticosus increases endurance and mental performance in patients with mild fatigue and weakness.

[Benefits]

1. Energy

Today we are talking about organic. No hipsters… not those organic hemp coats you tell me to buy but organic molecules. What’s going on everybody! My name is Jack Jenkins and this is Academy of One. Today we are going to talk about organic molecules.

An organic molecule is when we have a covalent hydrocarbon bond. A hydrocarbon bond is just a bond between the atoms hydrogen and carbon. So hears the question… why is this bond so important? Well for one carbon is an atom that has four electrons in its valence shell. A full shell for carbon would be eight atoms so a carbon desperately needs some electrons. This makes carbon atoms a very sharable atom because carbons always share electrons… they don’t give or take them. We call this tendency to share electrons rather than give or take electroneutral. Now there are many different combinations that carbon can have to fill up its electrons. It can be friends with oxygen or copper. What makes an organic molecule is that hydrogen needs only one electron to be complete. So a hydrogen can bond with a carbon and still have room for three other atoms. Most of the time a carbon will combine with something called a functional group. A functional group is a group of atoms held to gather by covalent bonds that function in chemical reaction as a single group. One of the simplest functional groups is the hydroxyl group. A hydroxyl group is an oxygen and hydrogen covalently bonded together. We talked about this guy in the last video under the name hydroxide, the name changes whether OH is an ion or not. An oxygen atom will combine with this hydroxyl functional group and become the base for all alcohols. More on alcohols when we talk about organic chemistry.

Most organic molecules form together into polymers. Polymers are chainlike molecules that are made up of repeating units called monomer. Most of the biological molecules that are in our body are made up of these polymers such as amino acids. Let’s dive into some monomers and polymers right now.

The first main organic molecule type is called a carbohydrate. Carbohydrate literally means hydrated carbon. This group of organic molecules are made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. We talked about carbohydrates in the biology series so watch that video before continuing on. In our bodies, carbohydrates make up around one to two percent of a cells mass. Carbohydrates is also the main source of energy, powering everything from movement to snoring. Carbohydrates come into three different forms. The first is a monosaccharide which means simple sugar. Five monosaccharides are important when we are talking about the human body. Glucose, fructose, galactose, deoxyribose and lastly, ribose. Glucose, fructose and galactose are part of a group called hexose sugars because they contain six atoms of carbon. Deoxyribose and ribose are pentose sugars because they only have five carbon atoms.

Disaccharides are the next main group of carbohydrate. A disaccharide is just a pair of monosaccharides. Disaccharides are formed from dehydration synthesis and a bond called glyosidic bond. Again, well talk about this more in a more organic chemistry. The Three important disaccharides in our body is sucrose, lactose and maltose. Sucrose is made up of a glucose bonded with a fructose. Lactose is made up of a galactose bonded with a glucose. Lastly, a maltose is made by a bonding of two glucoses.

The last group of carbohydrates are polysaccharides. A polysaccharide is a group of monosaccharides, usually made up of a few thousand or more. There are three polysaccharides that are important to our body. The first one is a starch. A starch is a polymer of glucose. Starches are usually stored in plant based food and is used for energy in our body. The second polysaccharide is glycogen. A glycogen is also a polymer of glucose but instead of being stored in plants it is stored into the tissues of animals. Lastly, there is cellulose. Cellulose is a polysaccharide that is used in the cell wall of animal plants. Cellulose is also called fiber which helps out your digestive tract. Basically what I’m saying is eat fruits and vegetables for great polysaccharides.

As Wimbledon is in full swing, here is our take on the smashing culinary delight, Strawberries & Cream. We served up fresh English Strawberries, Quark and our fresh Linseed (Flaxseed) Oil and freshly milled Linseed Meal.
We have got to say it’s just ace!

Not only does this taste devine it’s really good for you too! Packing a massive 60% Omega 3 (ALA). So enjoy your straberries and tennis whilst balancing your cholesterol.
