G6PD Deficiency Food to Avoid Some of the Foods Commonly Eaten Around the World Can Cause People with G6PD Deficiency to Hemolyze G6PD Deficiency Food To Avoid Some of the foods commonly eaten around the world can cause people with G6PD Deficiency to hemolyze. Some of these foods can be deadly (like fava beans). Some others can cause low level hemolysis, which means that red blood cells die, but not enough to cause the person to go to the hospital. Low level hemolysis over time can cause other problems, such as memory dysfunction, over worked spleen, liver and heart, and iron overload. Even though a G6PD Deficient person may not have a crises when consuming these foods, they should be avoided. • Fava beans and other legumes This list contains every legumes we could find, but there may be other names for them that we do not know about. Low level hemolysis is very hard to detect and can cause other problems, so we recommend the avoidance of all legumes. • Sulfites And foods containing them. Sulfites are used in a wide variety of foods, so be sure to check labels carefully. • Menthol And foods containing it. This can be difficult to avoid as toothpaste, candy, breath mints, mouth wash and many other products have menthol added to them. Mint from natural mint oils is alright to consume. • Artificial blue food coloring Other artificial food color can also cause hemolysis. Natural food color such as found in foods like turmeric or grapes is okay. • Ascorbic acid Artificial ascorbic acid commonly put in food and vitamins can cause hemolysis in large doses and should be avoided. It is put into so many foods that you can be getting a lot of Ascorbic Acid without realizing it. See Ascorbic acid for more information about iron absorption and ascorbic acid. • Vitamin K This is from drugbank: “Menadione (Vitamin K3), which is not used as a nutritional supplemental form of vitamin K for humans, has been reported to cause adverse reactions, including hemolytic anemia. Large doses have also been reported to cause brain damage. Vitamin K administered to newborns with G6PD Deficiency has been known to cause adverse outcomes including hemolytic anemia, neonatal brain or liver damage, or neonatal death in some cases. • Tonic water (contains quinine, a contraindicated drug which causes hemolysis in G6PDD people) • Bitter Gourd and Garden Egg Bitter Gourd is also known as Bitter Mellon. These are common foods in some parts of Africa and Asia. • Some Chinese Herbs Particularly Rhizoma Coptidis (huang lien), Calculus Bovis (neu huang), Flos Chimonanthi Praecocis (leh mei hua), Flos Lonicerae (kam ngan fa) and Margarita or anything containing them. List of Legumes for Those With Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD) Deficiency and Favism Fava beans are contraindicated for people with G6PD Deficiency, however, many people also react to varying degrees to many or all legumes. Many times the reaction is not a full blown hemolysis where hospitalization is required, but does cause hemolysis of a lesser degree. Over time, these smaller hemolysis events can lead to other more serious complications or related disorders. See Why We Recommend Avoiding Legumes for more information. The list is provided as an aid to those wishing to abstain from all legumes. If you would like more information about legumes and g6pd deficiency, Plants Of Life, Plants of Death has in interesting discussion.

  • Mung Bean Varieties
    FINAL STUDY REPORT Bridger Plant Materials Center, Bridger, MT Evaluation of Cowpea and Mung Bean Varieties Mark Henning, Area Agronomist, Miles City, MT Robert Kilian, (Retired) Rangeland Management Specialist, Bridger PMC, MT ABSTRACT There is a need for well adapted warm season legumes for use in cover crop mixes in Montana and Wyoming to provide needed plant diversity in dryland cropping systems. Field observations of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) and mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) in mixes have shown limited or poor performance in terms of number of plants and vigor. To identify suitable varieties, a variety trial consisting of two mung bean and four cowpea varieties was conducted at the Bridger Plant Materials Center (BPMC) in Bridger, Montana using a randomized complete block design. There was no significant difference in biomass yields, but there were significant differences in height and days to 50% flowering. ‘Iron & Clay’ cowpea was the tallest of the six tested varieties, whereas ‘Berken’ mung bean was the shortest. ‘Iron & Clay’ and ‘Black Stallion’ cowpeas never flowered, while the other varieties flowered and produced seed. All varieties exhibited excellent vigor and health, despite poor soil structure and soil compaction, and a lack of nodulation, demonstrating the potential for these species to do well in degraded soil. There is potential for seed production in Montana of ‘Chinese Red’ cowpea, as well mung bean varieties ‘OK2000’ and ‘Berken,’ which could meet a market demand for cover crop seed and provide an alternative crop in dryland farming systems. Future research should focus on 1) seed production potential of mung bean and cowpea in Montana dryland systems, 2) evaluation of higher seed rates of cowpea and mung bean in cover crop mixes, and 3) testing whether plant habit (prostrate versus upright) has an effect on legume performance in cover crop mixes.

  • Bean Beetle Nutrition and Development Lab: an Iterative Approach to Teaching Experimental Design
    Tested Studies for Laboratory Teaching Proceedings of the Association for Biology Laboratory Education Vol. 37, Article 10, 2016 Bean Beetle Nutrition and Development Lab: An Iterative Approach to Teaching Experimental Design Julie Laudick1 and Christopher Beck2 1The Ohio State University, Environmental Science Graduate Program, 1680 Madison Ave., Wooster OH 44691 USA 2Emory University, Department of Biology, 1510 Clifton Road NE, Atlanta GA 30322 USA ([email protected]; [email protected]) In this lab, students work first independently and then collaboratively to formulate a novel hypothesis and design an experiment to test it. Bean beetle (Callosobruchus maculatus) larvae can develop inside multiple types of host beans, but they develop more quickly and grow larger in more nutritious beans. Students test the effects of a nutrient of interest on larval development by adding it to flour made from nutrient deficient beans. A female beetle will lay eggs on a gelatin capsule full of the modified bean flour, as she would on a natural bean. The larvae developing inside the experimental capsules are compared with control capsules. Keywords: inquiry-based learning, hypothesis formulation, experimental design, bean beetles Introduction Bean beetle labs are particularly attractive for introductory and non-majors courses because students When covering the nature of science, biology face fewer technical and conceptual hurdles than they educators often emphasize that science is a process of would in microbiology or molecular biology labs. Less inquiry, not simply a collection of facts. Students rarely time is required for students to understand the system, and experience this full process in lab courses because more time can be spent designing, refining and original research is time consuming, resource-intensive, implementing experiments.

  • Sprout Production in California
    PUBLICATION 8060 Sprout Production in California WAYNE L. SCHRADER, University of California Cooperative Extension Farm Advisor, San Diego County Sprouts have been used for food since before recorded history. Sprouts vary in texture and taste. Some are spicy (e.g., radish and onions), some are used in Asian foods (e.g., mung bean [Phaseolus aureus]), and others are delicate (e.g., alfalfa) and are UNIVERSITY OF used in salads and sandwiches to add texture. Vegetable sprouts grown for food are CALIFORNIA baby plants that are harvested just after germination. Various crop seeds may be Agriculture sprouted. The most common are adzuki, alfalfa, buckwheat, Brassica spp. (broccoli, and Natural Resources etc.), cabbage, clover, cress, garbanzo, green peas, lentils, mung bean, radish, rye, http://anrcatalog.ucdavis.edu sesame, wheat, and triticale. Production practices should provide appropriate ger- mination conditions, moisture, and temperatures that allow for the “harvesting” of the sprouts at their optimal eating quality. Production practices should also allow for efficient cleaning and packaging of sprouts. VARIETIES Mung bean seed are used to produce bean sprouts; some soybeans and adzuki beans are also used to produce bean sprouts. The preferred varieties are those that have smaller-sized seed. With small seed, the cotyledons and seed coats are less objec- tionable or are more easily removed from the finished product. The smallest-seeded varieties of mung bean are Oklahoma 12 and Oriental; larger-seeded types are Jumbo and Berken. Any small-seeded adzuki may be used for sprouts; a variety called Chinese Red Adzuki is sometimes substituted for adzuki bean even though it is not a true adzuki bean.
