I have a family history of diabetes, so I try and control my sugar intake. I am having a lot of trouble figuring out how much sugar is the maximum amount of sugar to allow in my diet. I have read that "added sugar" intake should be limited to no more than ten percent of your daily calories, but I have no idea how to determine what amount of sugar in food is natural versus added. I assume that a...

the effects of sodium chloride and zn rates and sources on the growth and chemical composition of lowland rice (oryza sativa l.) were studied using calcareous soil in a greenhouse experiment. the treatments comprised 5 levels of nacl (0, 12.5, 25, 37.5 and 50 mmol kg-1 soil), three zn rates (0, 5 and 10 mg kg-1 soil) and two zn sources (znso4, 2h2o and znedta). applied salinity decreased shoot ...

Recent studies indicate that, in a manner similar to classical plant hormones, sugars can act as signaling molecules that control gene expression and developmental processes in plants. Crucial evidence includes uncoupling glucose signaling from its metabolism, identification of glucose sensors, and isolation and characterization of mutants and other regulatory components in plant sugar signal t...

The rising prevalence of obesity, not only in adults but also in children and adolescents, is one of the most important public health problems in developed and developing countries. As one possible way to tackle obesity, a great interest has been stimulated in understanding the relationship between different types of dietary carbohydrate and appetite regulation, body weight and body composition...
