SCIENCE PROVES THAT ORGANIC BEEF IS 50% HEALTHIER

People say that organic beef is healthier than ordinary red meat. Logically

speaking based on the name it is really healthier. What does organic meat/beef mean?

What does the organic beef contained for it to me healthier than its counterpart? What

are the things to consider for it to be organic? What does an organic cow eat? What is

the difference between organic cows and grass-fed cows? What does the organic beef

provide us? How much does it cost? Is it worth it to buy?

First of all what is an organic beef? Is the meat/beef of the cow that is raised in a

living conditions accommodating their natural behaviors and are fed 100% organic feed

and forage, and not administered antibiotics or hormones. Organic beef contains 50%

more omega-3 fatty acids than conventionally raised meat. Ömega-3 are linked to

reductions in cardiovascular diseases, improve neurological development and function,

according to Chris Seal, a professor of food and human nutrition at Newcastle

University. Organic beef contains 23% more polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and

47% more omega-3 fatty acids and so it is healthier, notably in preventing

cardiovascular diseases. The components that the cows eat mainly affect why organic

beef are healthier than the beef of an ordinary grass-fed cow. Organic cows were not

given hormones, antibiotics or man-made pesticides in its feed. The feed is not

necessarily have to be grass but corn or soy. The grass-fed beef is often leaner and

may have a different texture. Even though grass-fed beef contains higher amount of

certain nutrients, there is currently no compelling evidence that it is healthier than grain-

fed beef in the context of a balanced diet according to healthline.com. Take note that

grass-fed cows are often organic but organic cows are not necessarily grass-fed.
According to organicmilk.co their organic cows graze on grass and clover pastures, and

live outside for as much of the year as possible. They never eat genetically modified

crops and they never grow the, During winter they are fed on conserved grass and other

organic cereals to ensure they maintain a balanced and healthy organic diet the key to

twice as much as conventional meat although the growth in organic agriculture could

see prices fall according to theconversation.com.

The conclusions that I made up are that the cows that are cultured to be organic

is healthier than the local grass-fed cows because of the properties that the beef it

produces can help us in many ways. I have learned that grass-fed cows can be an

organic cow but an organic cow are not necessarily always grass-fed cows. In this topic

I have observed that not only the beef nut also the milk of the organic cow is beneficial

because it too provides 50% more omega-3 fatty acids that our body needs to prevent

cardiovascular diseases. I also came to realize that it is well worth it nut a big but is it

cost so much that the mass can’t all afford it.

 PHOTOMORPHOGENESIS: RESPONDING TO LIGHT

Photosynthesis is a natural process occurring in plants with the use of solar

energy for their growth and development. Aside from photosynthesis, a process called

photomorphogenesis, an artificial light-mediated developmental process where seeds

and plants respond to the light spectrum, is used for growth patterns and development.

Light is greatly involved in the plant developmental and physiological processes such as

flowering, germination, and the direction of growth. Photoreceptors perceives light and

signal the biological effects that happens in the plant. Photoreceptors in

photomorphogenesis have different types depending on the light spectrum the light

responds on.

Photomorphogenesis concerns on certain factors that could affect plant growth

that responded under light environment such as simple presence of light, light direction,

light intensity, light duration, spectral quality and polarization. According to

Shinkle,2016, photomorphogenesis copes and respond with the information given by

the light environment in parallel with the scale of time when the alters are described.

Integration of light signal can happen in days. The responses to light could be dynamic

and reversible in unicellular organisms but in the case of plants which are multi-cellular

organisms, changes in form are permanent and irreversible. Phototropism or

heliotropism is a differential growth that is permanent towards light that happens among

multi-cellular organisms like plants and diaheliotropism is a reversible difference that

happens among unicellular organisms.

Phytochromes and cryptochromes photoreceptors mediate growth and the

flowering of plants in response to the different light spectrum that are red light, far-red
light, and blue light. Studies show that in a cryptochrome-mediated light inhibition of

hypocotyl elongation of a certain plant, blue-light is the only light spectrum that showed

difference or mutation resulting in a long-hypocotyl in the seed germination.

Photomorphogenesis is a good advantage and important for seed germination in

the future. The possibility that modified innate photomorphogenic programs, by

conventional breeding or by the making of hybrid plants, may spawn growth forms

better relatable to the needs and boundaries of agricultural practice. Another is that

each of the photoreceptors has its own properties that may be more portable that

protein to a particular application. Experts are now trying to discover solutions to

agricultural challenges by photomorphogenesis using these practical applications.

 DO WET WIPES SPREAD GERMS?

Many people invented antithetical things, especially if it is for our

health. Anti-germs, antibacterial, antivirus and etc. are invented to inhibit or kill

a harmful bacteria, protozoa, and any other harmful microorganisms. One of

this invented antithetical things are wet wipes, wet wipes are usually used for

cleaning purposes like personal hygiene or household cleaning. If wet wipes

are invented for cleaning germs, does the wiped germs are gone or does it

spread?

Experts found out that some of wet wipes are simply moved bacteria

to other surfaces. This said that wet wipes can kill germs but a large amount of

dirt and grime can make it hard for wet wipes to do their job. Wet wipes

contains different chemicals to kill germs but there’s a limitation to its usage.

According to Ashley Heywood, A recent study undertaken by

researchers from the Cardiff University's School of Pharmacy and

Pharmaceutical Science found that the performance of seven most-commonly

used wipes was patchy, particularly when it comes to removing MRSA,

Clostridium difficile and Acinetobacter. In fact they even found some of the

wipes simply moved the bacteria to other surfaces.

Wet wipes will be a practical solution in sensitive environments and

even in our daily living but a breaking the proper usage instructions and

disposing of the wipes carefully can result in more contamination than

cleaning. According to the medical director at the The Smart Clinics, Dr.
Michael Spira, "This is a single small study which needs to be repeated on a

larger scale to provide more reliable conclusions."
