Definition: Whole grain barley is a healthy high-fiber, high-protein whole grain boasting numerous health benefits. When cooked, barley has a chewy texture and nutty flavor, similar to brown rice. Although soup is the most popular way to eat barley, you can use it like any other grain such as couscous or rice. Serve a curry or stir-fry over barley instead of rice or make a barley pilaf .
Michael Pollan says that the way we eat represents our most profound engagement with the natural world. Unfortunately, our food system has less and less to do with the natural world than ever before. So what do I mean by the term “food system?” The food system is everything required to produce, process, move, sell and consume food. The things used to grow food include land, fertilizers, pesticides, seeds and water – and our current industrial food growing system has resulted in pollution and animal waste. In addition, excessive amounts of energy and fossil fuels are used to process, package, advertise and transport this food.

The authors concluded: "In a Mediterranean country where olive and sunflower oils are the most commonly used fats for frying, and where large amounts of fried foods are consumed both at and away from home, no association was observed between fried food consumption and the risk of coronary heart disease or death." Commenting on the findings in the BMJ, Professor Michael Leitzmann of the University of Regensburg in Germany said two other studies - one from Costa Rica and another by an international team - had also failed to find strong evidence of a link. The authors of the Spanish study noted that the findings could only really be extrapolated to other Mediterranean countries with similar diets, whose people tended to fry 'fresh' with olive and sunflower oil. Fried foods from modern American-style takeaways were different, they argued, because these tended to have been cooked in re-used oils, higher in transfats.

Despite the name, buckwheat is not related to wheat and is often sought as a gluten-free alternative to wheat. High in iron, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, and zinc, buckwheat is a healthy addition to any soup, or great as a side. Buckwheat can also be cooked in a shallow sauce pan to have a firmer texture, please refer to this article for more information. Get a cup of buckwheat and rinse it 2-3 times, draining the water quickly to preserve texture.

Food web - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A food web (or food cycle ) depicts feeding connections (what eats what) in an ecological community . Ecologists can broadly lump all life forms into one of two categories called trophic levels : 1) the autotrophs , and 2) the heterotrophs . To maintain their bodies, grow, develop, and to reproduce , autotrophs produce organic matter from inorganic substances, including both minerals and gases such as carbon dioxide .

Derived from the Greek words chloros meaning ‘green’, and phyllon meaning ‘leaf’, chlorophyll is responsible for the green pigmentation found in almost all plants, algae, and cyanobacteria (blue-green algae). It’s the substance that gives plants their green colour. Chlorophyll is vital for photosynthesis, which allows plants to obtain energy from the sun, and to manufacture essential compounds for growth and reproduction. In fact, without sunshine, no life is possible, and no life is possible without chlorophyll either. Chlorophyll to plants is like blood to humans. It’s interesting to note that the molecule of chlorophyll is similar to that of the heme molecule in human blood.
