...In this experiment I will be using yeast and six different types of berries, (acai berries, blackberries, blueberries, cranberries, strawberries, and raspberries). I am using yeast because yeasts are unicellular, eukaryotic microorganisms. Since yeast is the Fungi kingdom, there are approximately 1500 different species of yeast and many of them have different characteristics. Also yeasts reproduces about every 100 minutes and most do so asexually by mitosis. When compared to bacteria and some other organisms, yeast are actually safe to experiment with.

...aroma, but it has many therapeutic benefits. Sea buckthorn seed oil is a very unusual essential oil in that it is almost always taken internally. This oil offers phenomenal benefits as a dietary supplement for enhancing the immune system; supporting cardiovascular, brain, and liver health; and for fighting many diseases.

...Final Thesis Paper Anti-Aging Foods I am a firm believer that the first and foremost of any anti-aging regiment should be working from the insides out. Eating a healthy die that contains anti-aging foods will slow down the aging process. What you eat has a tremendous impact not only on your health but also on your life span. Anti-aging foods are known to give you better endurance, prolong your lifespan, obtain a better quality of sleep, feel vital and energetic, and they can promote a sense of calmness and wellbeing. Anti-aging foods can reduce the effects of aging and even reverse the damage to your body caused by an unhealthy lifestyle. Some of the most notable anti-aging foods are avocados, berries, nuts, garlic, soya, watermelon and ginger. Avocado is a fruit which is usually eaten as a vegetable and is a good source of healthy monosaturated fat that can help reduce levels of a bad type of cholesterol in the body. Avocados are a good source of Vitamin E and can help maintain healthy skin and prevent skin aging. They are rich in potassium which helps prevent fluid retention and high blood pressure. Avocados provide nearly 20 percent of essential nutrients including fiber, potassium, vitamin e, b vitamins and folic acid. They also act as a nutrient booster by enabling the body to absorb more fat-soluble nutrients such as alpha, beta carotene and lutein. Avocados are rich, creamy and full of healthy essential fatty acids. Technically...

Today, we live in a world where food production is slowly drifting away from its natural ways, instead, an industrial business that is responsible for one of the largest grossing categories in our economy (“Food processing...” 1). Wendell Berry, an author and an environmental activist, provides interesting thoughts in his essay, “The Pleasures of Eating”. Berry expresses his concerns about how consumers naively buy their food, without having the knowledge of where and how the food is even produced. Berry proposes that consumers need to be aware that eating is included in the agricultural system due to the fact that all food is grown. The food industry is being contested by Berry because he makes a point that they have been controlling the food we consume by which causes consumers to give up their “freedom” in the topic of eating. To “eat responsibly” is Berry’s simple suggestion in order to have a much more pleasurable eating experience, and to break free from the “traps” imposed by the manipulative food industry. The essay is wrapped up by the provision of some guidelines to avoid jeopardizing our health . Berry urges consumers to...
