Adventitious Cucumbers?
Hydrogen-rich water regulates cucumber adventitious root development Abstract Hydrogen gas (H2) is an endogenous gaseous molecule in plants. Although its reputation is as a “biologically inert gas”, recent results suggested that H2has therapeutic antioxidant properties in animals and plays fundamental roles in plant responses to environmental stresses. However, whether H2 regulates root morphological patterns is largely […]
Does Molecular Hydrogen ‘fix’ you if you’ve been loaded up with pesticides?
CPF is a common pesticide. Here are the findings (below) from this report. Hydrogen molecules protect rats from CPF-induced damage of hippocampal neurons. The increased GFAP expression induced by CPF can also be ameliorated by hydrogen. Hydrogen molecules attenuated the increase in CPF-induced oxidative stress. Hydrogen molecules attenuated AChE inhibition in vivo and in vitro. Hydrogen molecules […]

How to really stuff up a marketing campaign
I like marketing: it’s the pitting of creativity against the dominant paradigm. It’s what I think I know proven to be right – or horribly wrong. And given the fast changing nature of marketing, as it swirls in the vapourtrail of the big jet Internet, there’s a pretty good change of failure. Let’s face it, marketing is in turmoil as old players so their best to adopt and new players come in, urged by the last hot marketing guru’s email and his ‘special’ software that is going to rocket you to the front page of Google for a mere $7.
To Sun or not to sun? That is the question.. and here’s the answer!
A new Swedish study recently published in the Journal of Internal Medicine followed 30,000 women over a period of 20 years, having recorded detailed information about their sun habits at the start of the study. The Karolinska Institute researchers found that, among those who avoided sun exposure, twice as many women died from all causes over the period compared with those having the highest sun exposure.
