SAVE THIS ONE. 🌱

Chlorophyll is on the top of the list when it comes to disease-fighting micronutrients.

What is chlorophyll?

CHLOROPHYLL is the compound in plants that is responsible for their green color. It also helps plants absorb energy from the sun (photosynthesis).

Why is Chlorophyll so important?

When we metabolize this powerful micronutrient from green foods it helps to cleanse our blood by separating our red blood cells, making our blood more free-flowing much like water (alkaline) instead of sluggish (acidic). When our blood is more fluid it can flow easily. In addition, chlorophyll oxygenates our blood which alkalizes our blood, tissues, and body. This is the healthy, healing environment we want to strive for. This is especially important for those diagnosed with cancer.

More oxygen (less inflammation)

= Alkaline (less acidity)

= Healthy, healing environment

Drugs on Ice

As well as causing unpleasant infections that make us sick, bacteria can also help to make us well again. Several species of bacteria produce chemicals that have been turned into drugs such as antibiotics and cancer treatments. This has led to an activity known as bioprospecting – scouring the natural world in search of new bacterial species that might produce potent novel drugs for all kinds of conditions. The more unusual the conditions, the stranger the bacteria that live there and the more interesting the molecules that they produce. There are few places on earth as strange as Antarctica, with its extreme cold, high saltiness and lack of human interference. These plates contain colonies of Actinobacteria isolated from Antarctic hair grass – one of only two flowering plants native to the frozen continent. Some of them make molecules that could be promising cancer drugs, which can be taken forward for testing.

WTF!?

[growninhaiti]

Second fruit from our Annona glabra and the tree is currently covered in flowers. Not my favorite annona but worth growing. Annona glabra is a tropical fruit tree in the family Annonaceae, in the same genus as the soursop and cherimoya. Common names include pond apple, alligator apple (so called because American alligators often eat the fruit), swamp apple, corkwood, bobwood, and monkey apple. Unlike the other Annona species, the pulp of the fruit when ripe is yellow through orange instead of whitish. The fruit itself smells so amazing but the flavors leaves little to be desired for. I originally chose to grow these as the seeds can be processed to make ethanol and recent research suggests that its alcoholic seed extract contains anticancer compounds that could be used pharmaceutically. ・・・ #growninhaiti #Annonaglabra #pondapple #haiti #ayiti #diversity #fruit #abundance #harvest #foodforest #agroforestry #preservation #diversification #nogmos #nopesticides #noherbicides #anticancer #sustainablefoodsystems #grownfromseed https://www.instagram.com/p/CHdu_b3Fvz7/?igshid=1f8ik2mqowcwn
