Eggwrack Seafood Parcels Are Collecting for Your Own Consumption Or for Sale (Please Don’T Do the Latter!) Fergus ‘the Forager’ Drennan is attempting to live for a year entirely from foraged foods. He runs wonderful courses on wild foods and foraging (not always the same thing) throughout the year and more details are Wild available on his website at www.wildmanwildfood.com food Fergus Drennan gets out his bucket and spade and goes in search of edible seaweeds. ummer is the absolute best time for collecting Sun, sand seaweeds, and with a number of inspirational cookbooks and guides published this year, now could not be a better time for getting your feet wet!

Plus recipes for rose-hip soup, a salad with fresh raspberries, and sumac lemonade. hile you’re enjoying the beach and the sun, be sure to include nature’s summer bounty in your W day. It’s easy to locate and harvest many useful wild plants on the Vineyard, and even easier to make delicious food and drinks with them. Here are the descriptions you need to find tasty flowers and nutritious greens to go with every meal of the day. Beach peas In the spring, the beach pea plant (Lathyrus maritimus) has beautiful purple or fuchsia flowers amid the pale green leaves. If you look at the same plants again in July and August, you’ll often see hanging pods (similar to common garden pea pods) with three to eight small peas inside. Since the peas are under- sized, it might take too much time to collect for a meal, but they taste like regular peas and can be eaten and cooked in the same way. Beach pea tendrils, located at the tip of the plant, can be snipped and lightly steamed. Look for the beach peas on both the south- and north-shore beaches, in the dunes and around Writer Holly Bellebuono and her daughter, Madia, collect wild roses that were likely once cultivated.

This study provides a comprehensive characterization of the chemical composition of 15 Arctic red algal species from the perspective of their practical relevance in medicine and the food industry. We show that several virtually unstudied species may be regarded as promis- ing sources of different valuable metabolites and minerals. Thus, several filamentous ceramialean algae (Ceramium virgatum, Polysiphonia stricta, Savoiea arctica) had total protein content of 20–32% of dry weight, which is comparable to or higher than that of already commercially exploited species Citation: Yanshin, N.; Kushnareva, (Palmaria palmata, Porphyra sp.).

New Brunswick, Canada E2L 4L5 Laboratoire de Physiologie Vegetale, Faculte des Sciences. Universite de Bretagne Occidentale. 6 Avenue V. Le Gorgeu. F-29287 Brest Cedex. France ABSTRACT: Seasonal variations of distribution of the gametophytic and tetrasporophytlc generations, growth, carrageenans, phosphorus and nitrogen nutrition, and dry matter content were studied in 2 of the most contrasting forms of the red alga Chondrus crispus Stackhouse in Britanny. France. Seasonal variations of generations were more pronounced in the infralittoral than in the midlittoral form; the former had more reproductively mature plants and twice as many tetrasporophytes. Growth was greater in the infralittoral than in the midlittoral form. Contents of total carrageenans were comparable in the 2 forms; the K-, L-, and p-carrageenan structures did not vary significantly (qualitatively, quantitatively, during the year, or between the 2 forms). The midlittoral form had a higher total phosphorus content, more marked seasonal variations and an earlier spring decline than the infralittoral form Seasonal variations of total nitrogen content had different patterns in the 2 forins during summer The dry matter content of the infralittoral form was lower than that of the midlittoral form. These eco-physiological and biochemical differences and similarities are discussed in terms of the polymorphism of this alga.

  • A Role for Dietary Macroalgae in the Amelioration of Certain Risk Factors Associated with Cardiovascular Disease
    Phycologia Volume 54 (6), 649–666 Published 16 November 2015 REVIEW A role for dietary macroalgae in the amelioration of certain risk factors associated with cardiovascular disease 1 2 3 M. LYNN CORNISH *, ALAN T. CRITCHLEY AND OLE G. MOURITSEN 1J.S. Craigie Research Centre, 82 Tribal Street, Cornwallis Park, Nova Scotia B0S 1H0, Canada 230 Brown Avenue, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, B3B 1X8, Canada 3MEMPHYS-Center for Biomembrane Physics, University of Southern Denmark, Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, 55 Campusvej, DK-5230 Odense M, Denmark ABSTRACT: Many of the pathologies leading to premature death from cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in humans are influenced by an individual’s nutritional habitus. Diet-related risk factors for these pervasive, noncommunicable diseases include obesity, hypertension, endothelial dysfunction, diabetes, and disproportionate cellular free-radical production. CVDs are the number one cause of premature death globally, and effective methods for ameliorating CVD risk factors associated with diet should be a primary target. Although various intervention strategies are being developed and implemented, such as healthy lunch programs, improved menus in school cafeterias, and government mandates for food manufacturers regarding the reduction of salt and trans fats in processed products, a broader, more universal approach is in order. The proliferation and ready availability of high-calorie, nutrient-poor foods and the powerful marketing tools used by multinational food companies seriously compromise the health and wellness potential of a significant proportion of the global population. In this review, some of the underlying mechanisms contributing to cardiovascular health are discussed in terms of human nutritional status. Unhealthy plasma cholesterol levels, obesity, nutritional energy imbalances, and inflammatory responses are identified as some of the likely precursors in the manifestation of cardiovascular issues.

Nasirullah Memorial Trust, Tejgaon, Dhaka 1215, Bangladesh, Contact: +8801716477485, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The global economic impact of the five leading chronic diseases — cancer, diabetes, mental illness, CVD, and respiratory disease — could reach $47 trillion over the next 20 years, according to a study by the World Economic Forum (WEF). According to the WHO, 80% of the world’s population primarily those of developing countries rely on plant-derived medicines for healthcare. The purported efficacies of seaweed derived phytochemicals is showing great potential in obesity, T2DM, metabolic syndrome, CVD, IBD, sexual dysfunction and some cancers. Therefore, WHO, UN-FAO, UNICEF and governments have shown a growing interest in these unconventional foods with health-promoting effects. Edible marine macro-algae (seaweed) are of interest because of their value in nutrition and medicine. Seaweeds contain several bioactive substances like polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, polyphenols, and pigments, all of which may have beneficial health properties. People consume seaweed as food in various forms: raw as salad and vegetable, pickle with sauce or with vinegar, relish or sweetened jellies and also cooked for vegetable soup. By cultivating seaweed, coastal people are getting an alternative livelihood as well as advancing their lives. In 2005, world seaweed production totaled 14.7 million tons which has more than doubled (30.4 million tons) in 2015.

Seaweeds are a good source of nutrients such as proteins, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. Polyphenols, polysaccharides, and sterols, as well as other bioactive molecules, are mainly responsible for the healthy properties associated with seaweed. Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and anti-diabetic properties are attributed to these compounds. If seaweeds are compared to terrestrial plants, they have a higher proportion of essential fatty acids as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) fatty acids. In addition, there are several secondary metabolites that are synthesized by algae such as terpenoids, oxylipins, phlorotannins, volatile hydrocarbons, and products of mixed biogenetic origin.
