Beware of M.M.C.S. (Medical Marijuana Cultivation Syndrome)
One of the top beaches in Southern California is the north end of Ocean Beach, San Diego. Someone unfamiliar with that beach scene might presume it to be a surfer’s haven, clothing optional sun bathing, or just a freak fest. Nope, not even close, it’s Dog Beach. People, oceanic beauty, canines, and love all rolled into one. This example is merely a microcosm of intensity between other living non-humans, and their relationship.
Medical Marijuana cultivation is all about a garden of living plants, dependent on you for everything- just like your pets or children. You will take an embryonic seed all the way to harvest, with a myriad of emotions in between. When you prep your grow area by trimming ivy, raking, turning soil, composting, fertilizing, and weeding- that’s just like painting the nursery pink, or putting bedding in the new dog house. You are about to celebrate new life.
Pot farmers, as they affectionately refer to themselves, call their plants “babies”, and they do this until full maturity, just like I’m still my mom’s baby at 57. Getting down in the deep, moist, dirty soil is akin to changing diapers, especially if you treat your plants with fish emulsion food supplements. This is what catches most newbies off-guard, the living aspect of your garden of Medical Marijuana. Yes, it’s great that you’ll benefit in a medicinal way, exhibiting pride in your accomplishments along the journey, but the intensity and catharsis from cultivation- could easily push your new found passion, into a syndrome.
One trap that’s easy to fall into is the one of exclusion. In many States cultivation is still illegal, even for medicinal reasons, and those that are approved, the patient needs an I.D. This means that some Medical Marijuana cultivators may have a stigma attached to their gardening endeavor, thus keeping it on the “down-low”. This bunker mentality may keep you and your “babies” isolated for a while, where you sleep-work-and tend garden. It’s very easy to spend a few hours among your plants, even on a daily basis. Weekends will involve trips to the local plant nursery, Doctors and Nurses will sneak out blood by- products from the hospitals to feed their plants, and Encarsia Formosa strips will be ordered to keep Whitefly pests away. If you have a spouse or significant other, include them in your new hobby to defer their wrath.
Security is yet another umbilical cord that will be difficult to cut. The older your plants become, the greater your concern and intensity. Watching these Sativas or Indicas mature, keeping them pest free, and making sure low life rip-off artists don’t get hold of them, is just like waiting at the bus stop- ‘til your kids are safely off to school. A good watch dog, motion sensor lights, and booby traps (be creative) are mild panaceas at best. Better yet, just hang-out with your babies 24/7, thus the M.M.C.S. strengthens.
The mix of earth, climate, beautiful plants, and nurturing of life- is very encompassing. Your end product offers therapeutic relief of an ailment, but the come down after your garden expires, may take your psyche to a place you’ve never been. If you feel totally bummed out after harvest, find some more seeds and dig in again. Remember, grow American!

Chewing gum is a type of confection traditionally made from tree sap, like chicle that comes from the sapodilla tree native to Central and South America. Natural chicle is a type of rubber that softens as it warms in your mouth. Like a mouthful of rubber bands, the chicle doesn’t dissolve when you chew it.
Nowadays, for reasons of quality and economy, most chewing gum is made from an artificial man-made chicle, or synthetic rubber known as polyisobutylene. You should know that polyisobutylene is also used to make adhesives, agricultural chemicals, fiber optic compounds, caulk, sealant, 2-cycle engine oil, paper, and it’s used as a gasoline/diesel fuel additive. Sounds tasty!
Chewing on a piece of rubber isn’t very appealing, of course. So the people that make chewing gum mix the rubber with sugar and flavorings, like cinnamon, mint, wintergreen, and all kinds of fruit. When you chew it, the rubber releases the flavor into your mouth. M-m-m-m.
Once the flavor is gone, now what? Chewing gum can’t be recycled like a plastic milk jug. It has no redeeming quality or use once the flavor is gone. Likely this is why so much of it ends up on the sidewalk and the bottom of your Sunday-go-to-meeting shoes, not to mention the underside of chairs and tables.
Chewing Gum Dos and Don’ts
• Chew with your mouth closed. You are not a cud-chewing cow. • Avoid making noises as you chew. Cracking and popping noises are for July 4th celebrations, not gum chewing. • Don’t swallow your gum. It contains none of your required daily allowances of vitamins and minerals. • Wrap your ABC (Already Been Chewed) gum in paper and dispose of it in a waste container.
CONSIDER THIS: Contrary to what you’ve heard, swallowed gum does not remain in your stomach for seven years, although it does stay on the bottom of your shoe for about that long.

Effect of Maturity Stage on Protein Fractionation, In Vitro Protein Digestibility and Anti-nutrition Factors in Pineapple (Ananas comosis) Fruit Grown in Southern Sudan
Murwan K. SabahelKhier and Saifeldin A. Hussain
Department of Biochemistry, School of Biotechnology, Faculty of Science and Technology, Al Neelain University, Sudan.
Abstract: This investigation showed that albumin, globulin and protein content increases with increasing the days of maturity stage while glotulin and non protein nitrogen content decreases with increasing the days of maturity stage. The prolamin remained constant during the days of maturity stage. In-vitro protein digestibility improved with decreased of tannin and phytic acid content due to increasing the days of maturity stage because tannin and phytic acid inhibit the activity of pepsin enzymes.
Keywords: Pineapple, Digestibility, Ant-nutritional, Maturity and Vitamins
1.0 Introduction
The importance of pineapple fruit lies in their nutritive value. Fruit of pineapple reached the maturity stage at 105 days after flowering (Guerra and Livera, 1999).
It is rich in protein, fat, fiber, vitamins, mineral salts and water (Atif and Hagag, 1995). The net protein utilization is referred to the percentage of ingestion and utilizing protein for growth and maintenance (Osborne, et al., 1978).It is considered as supplement to daily food (Pandey and Ajanta, 1993). The physical, chemical and sensorial characters of pineapple showed significant difference at the several of maturity stage (Guerra and Livera, 1999). Pineapple contained 25-50 mg/g ellagic acid (Amakura et al., 2000).The juice of pineapple fruit contained five proteolytic enzymes collectively known as bromelain (William, 2000). Bromelain is natural blood thinner because it prevents excessive blood platelet stickiness. It also endues the thickness of mucus, which may benefit the patient with asthma or chronic bronchitis. In addition, bromelain in combination with trypsin may enhance the effect of antibiotic in people with urinary tract infection (Manhart et al., 2002). Bromelain has some remarkable characters such as its ability to reduce inflammation pain and swelling, speed the heeling of injuries trauma, surgery, sinusitis or arthritis (Mackay and Miller, 2003). The pineapple fruit contained
tannin, phenolic acid and Flavonoids (William, 1991).
Objectives of this investigation are study effect of maturity stage (75, 90 and 105
days after flowering) on the protein fractionation, in vitro protein digestibility and antinutrition factors (Tannin, phytic acid)of pineapple fruit..
2.0 Material and methods
2.1 Collection and preparation of sample: The samples were collected from Southern Sudan (Yambio Research Station, Agriculture Research Organization, Ministry of Agriculture, Sudan) basis on maturity stage. The preparation of samples was carried according to the method described by AOAC (1984).
2.2 Protein fractionation
The sequential extraction of protein was carried out according to Mendel and Osborne method (1924). It is basis on solubility of protein in different solvents. Water soluble protein (Albumins), salt soluble protein (Globulins), alcohol soluble protein (Glotulin), alkali soluble protein (Prolamin) and residual proteins (None – protein nitrogen).The residues remaining after those successive extractions with four solvents were determined by semi micro-Kjeldhal method according to AOCA (1990).Percent protein extracted was calculated to total amount of protein in the samples extracted such as follows:
Soluble protein (total) % = T X N X TV X 14 X 6.25 X 100
1000 X A
Protein solubility % = Soluble protein X 100
Total protein
Where:
T = Titer reading (ml of HCl), N = Normality of the HCl (0.02N), TV =Total Volume of the aliquot extracted (100ml), A = Number of (ml) of sample extracted (2.0g), 14 = each ml of HCl is equivalent to 14 mg. Nitrogen, 1000 = Number of mg in one gram and 6.25 = conversion factor from nitrogen into protein %.
2.3 Anti-nutrition factors
2.3.1 Tannin content
Quantitative estimation of tannins for each sample was carried out by using modified vanillin- HCl methanol method as described by Price and Butler (1987).
There is no useful standards curve for tannin in food, but the tanninic acid was used for preparation the standard curve of tannic acid. The standard curve of tannic acid was prepared according to AOAC (1990) for measurement the concentration of tannin in our samples (plotting the concentration of tanninic acid (mg) against the corresponding reading of Spectrophotometer in Absorbance).
2.3.2 Phytic acid content
The phytic acid content was determined according to the method described by Wheeler and Ferrel (1971). Preparation of standard curve for phytic acid was done as follows: standard curve of different Fe (NO3) 3 concentrations was plotted against the corresponding of Spectrophotometer to calculated the ferric iron conc. The phytate phosphorus was calculated from the concentration of ferric iron assuming 4:6 irons: phosphorus molar ratio.
2.4In vitro protein digestibility: It was carried out according to Maliwal method (1981) in the manner described by Monjula and John (1991) with minor modification. A know weight of the sample containing 16 mg nitrogen was taken in the triplicates and digested with one mg pepsin in 15 ml of 0.1 M HCL at 37 oC for two hours. The reaction was stopped by the addition of 15 ml (10%) trichoroacetic acid. The mixture was filtrated quantatively through filter paper (Whatman No.1). Trichoroacetic acid soluble fraction was assayed for the nitrogen by semi-micro Kjeldhal method.
Protein digestibility % = N2 in supernat – N2 in pepsin X 100
N2 in sample
2.5Statistical analysis:
Three separate sub samples from each origin sample were taken and analyzed. Then mean values were averaged. Data were assessed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) as described by Gomez and Gomez (1984).
3.0 Results and Discussion
3.1 Protein fractionation
Table I indicated that albumin content of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity of pineapple is 4.4, 3.2 and 3.0 %, respectively. The results revealed that albumin content increases with increasing period of maturity. Globulin content of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity of pineapple is 1.2 and 0.6, 0.4 %, respectively. The finding indicated that globulin content of fruit increases with increasing the period of maturity. The Prolamin content of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity of pineapple is remained constant (0.7 %) during the period of maturity .Those results revealed that the Prolamin of pineapple not effected by period of maturity. The Glotulin content of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity of fruit is 0.9, 1.0 and 1.8%, respectively. The findings revealed that Glotulin content decreases with increased the period of maturity. Non Protein N2 of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity of fruit is 92.9, 94.6 and 94.2 %, respectively. All the above results are supported by the findings that reported by Amukura et al, (2000).
3.2 In vitro protein digestibility and Anti-nutrition factors
Table 2 illustrated that protein content of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity is 4.11, 3.75 and 3.70 %, respectively. The findings are high than those given by Ahmed (2001).
The protein digestibility of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity is 39.4, 36.2 and 32.2 %, respectively. Those results are lower than protein digestibility of sorghum (46 %), and rice (66%), maize (73 %) and wheat (81 %) that given by MacLean (1981). This finding indicated that protein digestibility of pineapple fruit is extremely poor compared with sorghum, rice, maize and wheat. Tannin content of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity is 4.5, 22.2 and 20.2 %, respectively. The results revealed that high tannin content reduced the digestibility of the protein because tannin acts as anti-enzymatic activity. In addition, tannin reacts with protein to form insoluble complex compound. The phytic acid of 105, 90 and 75 days maturity is 0.40, 0.20 and 0.15 mg/g, respectively. Phytic acid interacts with protein forming complex compound and reduce the bioavailability of protein and inhibits the action of pepsin, trypsin and ? – amylase. These results explain the poor of protein digestibility in the pineapple fruit.

What is acai berry used for? Is it used for weight loss? More energy? Or is it simply a delicious delicacy that tastes good and is meant to be a healthy, feel good alternative to other sweet snacks? In this article we are going to take a quick and insightful look at the different uses of acai berry…..WITHOUT the hype and over the top marketing message! Curious to know more? Great….continue reading as we take a closer look below!
Filed Under: Acai Berry Benefits are Bountiful
The truth? The acai fruit is actually over 85% inedible! But the acai pulp is one of the most mineral rich, anti-oxidant dense super foods in the world. It is found most abundantly in the Amazonian rain forest, and locals and indigenous cultures in this region have been using acai for many years for all SORTS of health and social benefits. With an ORAC content (the metric used to rate anti-oxidant absorbency in our food) that EXPONENTIALLY exceeds just about every other fruit under the sun, acai is actually a delicacy that is eaten in many different ways…breakfast, lunch and dinner in many of these small south American cultures, and is treated as a “gift from the gods” to boot!
Western news cameras have captured a cacophony of creative ways that acai is prepared in these areas….and many believe it treats any and all ailments from sexual dysfunction to more serious age related diseases and disorders.
Filed Under: Acai Berry in the Lab
Honestly? There has been so much HYPE about the benefits of acai, it’s difficult to determine just what is true….and what is hype! What we do know is this: Acai is rich in phyto-nutrients, fatty acids, amino acids, trace minerals and anthocyanins….which many medical professionals believe are the KEY compounds in the fight against aging and many associated diseases.
As a matter of fact, this is one of the key reasons that so much recent attention has been focused on “super foods”, with blueberries, pomegranates, spinach, broccoli and all deeply colored fruits and vegetables becoming such an integral part of a recommended healthy diet.
Anthocyanins are found in very high quantities in acai fruit….and is the leading reason, in our view, why so many celebrity (and everyday) health and wellness experts have gone “ga-ga” about acai berry!
Bonus Tip: Beware of the Acai Berry Scams! Unfortunately, many of the Acai products on the market are scams, being sold by unscrupulous companies with one hand in your pocket, rather than out to help you heal.
My best advice? If you really want to experience the amazing benefits of acai, make sure you ONLY extract.
(This is the online in our opinion, and the one that we use, and recommend to our family, friends and readers alike.)
Your health and overall body condition will be in top shape if you take proper maintenance of your body, both from the inside and outside.
