Broccoli
Sprouts Fight Ulcers
If a type
of bacteria called H. pylori is the firebug that ignites most ulcers,
then a serving of broccoli sprouts is your edible sprinkler system. In
a study sponsored by the National Academy of Sciences, sulforaphane--a
phytochemical in the sprouts--killed off any H. pylori that was exposed
to it. And while the research was done in the lab, "all indications point
to sulforaphane's having a similar effect on the H. pylori in our stomachs,"
says Paul Talalay, M.D., a professor of pharmacology at the Johns Hopkins
University medical school. Try folding sprouts into your omelettes or
using them in a sandwich. (And yes, regular broccoli contains some sulforaphane,
too.) - Prevention

Selective
stimulation of the growth of anaerobic microflora in the human intestinal
tract by electrolyzed reducing water
By the Department
of Physiology of Microorganisms, Lomonosov Moscow State University
96-99% of
the "friendly" or residential microflora of intestinal tract
of humans consists of strict anaerobes and only 1-4% of aerobes. Many
diseases of the intestine are due to a disturbance in the balance of the
microorganisms inhabiting the gut. In this work, it is suggested that
prerequisite for the recovery and maintenance of obligatory anaerobic
microflora in the intestinal tract is a negative ORP value of the intestinal
milieu. Electrolyzed reducing water
with E(h) values between 0 and -300 mV produced in electrolysis devices
possesses this property. Drinking such water favours the growth of residential
microflora in the gut. Continue
