Edible Plants ‘Talk’ To Animal Cells, Promote Healing - BrownEye - 05-25-2014 Something that has been at the back of my mind for some time regarding the whole 'meat vs plant' arguments..........plants do not technically die when eaten. Just seed for thought. Quote:A groundbreaking new study published in Molecular Nutrition & Food Research titled, “Interspecies communication between plant and mouse gut host cells through edible plant derived exosome-like nanoparticles,” reveals a new way that food components ‘talk’ to animal cells by regulating gene expression and conferring significant therapeutic effects. With the recent discovery that non-coding microRNA’s in food are capable of directly altering gene expression within human physiology,[1] this new study further concretizes the notion that the age old aphorism ‘you are what you eat’ is now consistent with cutting edge molecular biology. |
