In addition, perilla and sesame seeds are rich sources of health-promoting compounds, such as fatty acids, tocopherols, phytosterols and policosanols. Thus, developing a method to determine the geographic origin of these seeds is important for ensuring authenticity, safety and traceability and to prevent cheating.

  • Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Properties of Rosemary (Rosmarinus Officinalis, L.): a Review

In this regard, natural extracts of the Lamiaceae family, such as rosemary, have been studied because of its bioactive properties. Several studies have reported that rosemary extracts show biological bioactivities such as hepatoprotective, antifungal, insecticide, antioxidant and antibacterial. It is well known that the biological properties in rosemary are mainly due to phenolic compounds. However, it is essential to take into account that these biological properties depend on different aspects. Their use in foods is limited because of their odour, colour and taste. For that reason, commercial methods have been developed for the preparation of odourless and colourless antioxidant compounds from rosemary. Owing to the new applications of natural extracts in preservatives, this review gives a view on the use of natural extract from rosemary in foods and its effect on preservative activities. Specifically, the relationship between the structure and activity (antimicrobial and antioxidant) of the active components in rosemary are being reviewed.

  • FAMILY PHYSICIAN with Essential Oils “I Finally Figured out How to Use Essential Oils—TAKE OFF the CAP”
    FAMILY PHYSICIAN With Essential Oils “I finally figured out how to use essential oils—TAKE OFF THE CAP” You can use all of the oils 3 ways; Topically, Internally (drip into an empty gel cap) and with the diffuser. If the bottle has a ‘supplement’ box on the label, you can feel completely safe using it internally. When diluting* the essential oils, use one drop of Coconut Oil for one or two drops of the essential oil. It is not necessary to dilute the essential oils, but for some essential oils which are particularly cool (Peppermint, Wintergreen) or hot (Oregano, Cinnamon, Clove, Cassia), it may not be comfortable on your skin without diluting, and may be particularly uncomfortable for a child. If you use an oil without diluting and it is uncomfortable to the recipient, simply apply a small amount of coconut oil and it will quickly resolve the problem. Also, if you are using the oils on an open sore or wound, it is always a good idea to dilute with coconut oil. Diffusion is powerful because the child can breathe it in and it kills microorganisms in the air which helps stop the spread of sickness. If the oils get in the eyes, it will sting but will not do damage. Simply rub a few drops of your diluter oil on the eye and it will help to relieve the suffering. You can combine and mix any of the oils as much as you like and the oils are safe with any medication. If you are not sure how to apply the oil, know that you can ALWAYS rub it on the bottoms of the feet and you will get the full affect.

  • Perilla Mint
    Extension W135 Perilla Mint Larry Steckel, Assistant Professor, Plant Sciences Neil Rhodes, Professor and Department Head, Plant Sciences Perilla Mint Peri indicutescens (L.) Britt. Also known as: beefsteak plant, common perilla, purple perilla, purple mint, shiso, Chinese basil, wild basil, blueweed, Joseph’s coat, wild coleus, rattlesnake weed Classification and Description Perilla mint is a member of the Lamiaceae or mint family. About 200 genera and 3200 species make up the mint plant family. Perilla mint is an erect, herbaceous annual that can grow to heights of 2 feet. It is native to East Asia. The cotyledons are longer than they are broad, with the broadest portion near the tip. The leaves are simple, opposite and can be purple or green tinged with purple, making it an attractive plant. Leaves have coarsely serrated (toothed) leaf margins pointed toward the tip and can be up to 5 inches wide and 7 inches long. Leaves are egg-shaped, with the largest part nearest the Perilla mint base. The stems of perilla mint are square in cross section, erect, hairy, somewhat branched and green or purple. Many small, white to purplish-white flowers with a ring of hairs in the throat are clustered in the terminals of these plants. Reproduction is by seed. Perilla mint has a shallow taproot and fibrous roots. Weed Status and Injury Perilla mint causes more cattle deaths in Tennessee than any other toxic plant. Perilla is very poisonous to cattle and other ruminants, as well as horses. All plant parts are toxic, especially the flowering structures. Dried plants in hay can be toxic, but the greatest risk is associated with consumption of fresh plant material, especially if flowers and fruit are present.

  • Herbaceous: Six Important Flavors in Herbs
    Herbaceous: Six Important Flavors in Herbs 1. Anethole (the taste of anise or licorice, ouzo, pernod, sambuca): tarragon and fennel have anethole, and even basil has a mild anethole flavor. Thai basil has a strong anethole taste. The licorice herbs are the most food friendly herbs available. Use licorice herbs, and your food—especially any fish or seafood dish—will sparkle. These anise-tasting herbs are also spectacular on eggs, cheese, meat, and tomatoes. French tarragon (a different taste than Russian tarragon), is the flavor found in béarnaise sauce. http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/bearnaise-sauce- 395049 2. Lemon tasting herbs: lemongrass, lemon verbena, lemon thyme, and sorrel. It’s easy to add lemon to nearly any dish. So make sure than your herb garden contains at least one of the lemon-tasting herbs. 3. Resinous, herbs such as rosemary, thyme, and sage, have a resin, or woody, quality. The flavor of resinous herbs comes through in cooking and is a wonderful match for meats. But be careful. That taste can overpower: the longer rosemary cooks, the stronger the flavor gets. Sage and thyme are very easy to grow and will come back with vigor next year. The flavor of sage is also quite musky in taste and aroma, which is why it blends so well with beans and meats. 4. Grassy: such as dill and parsley. Don’t overlook the value of parsley. It is very herbaceous, which offers a balance to other flavors on the plate. Parsley has a very mild anethole taste. For example, Italians use a garnish called gremolati, where the heat of raw garlic is blended with the sour of lemon zest and balanced with a whole bunch of grassy parsley.
