Hi! I had a chance to participate in the seminar on Agri-research for Health, Beauty and Long life conducted by Agricultural Research and Development Agency which was the public organization under Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives. This seminar was between August 30-31.
The content of the seminar was started from the brief introduction of how to be in longer life span and wholesome[healthy] food. The speakers of the first day were the invited lecturers, and experience scientists from aboard. They discussed about life structure and food to match the structure. One said food was more than the calories. They invented health and happiness. They indicated about probiotics whereas our bodies were full of good and bad millions bacteria. Probiotics which were the selectively good bacteria to take into our bodies. Yoghurt was the good example. Besides, they talked about our skins and cosmetics. On the second days, all speakers were nationally well known Thais. The main important words were "eating food for medicines, don't taking medicines for food".
I would like to conclude some interesting points which I noted down from the seminar. if you are interested in any detail, please contact the Agricultural Research and Development Agency under their website by this ARDA name.
1. Human had self esteem which should be facilitated by the items following, they were, sanitary, safety, feasibility, sufficiency, life by nature, and relaxation. Food consumption were also included.
2. Digestive organs including intestine was 7 times longer than our height. Eating too much protein and fat from meat, milk and egg, it took 72 hours for the whole digestive process, but for the starch and sugar, it took only 1-2 minutes. Besides, protein and fat needed enzyme from liver and pancreas to digest. They would work harder. Also, if the fat was excess, the absorption would be slower, the slow fermentation made the fat to cover the intestine membrane. Then, this covering would be as the wall to prevent nutrients from digestion not to absorb through the membrane to other organs. This would be the cause of allergy, calcium deficiency, or susceptibility to catching cold.
Actually, fat, both saturated and unsaturated were essential to our body and brain, but to keep away from the Trans-fat, we must find the criteria of eating such as brown rice or whole grains, fruits and vegetables[atleast 400 grammes a day] fishes, particularly deep sea fishes, and some less fat content food. We must note that banana was the polysaccharide to offer good nutrition to the body. Papaya and tomato contained lycopene which helped to protect postage gland cancer. Coconut and rice bran oils had some advantages. Rice bran oil had oryzanal, inositol,etc. [mostly, nutritious value were in the husk of grain or peel of fruit]
3. There were 22 amino acids a person needed but only 8 were essential [ I remembered only lysine and Meteonine] If we consumed various beans[and sesame] and deep sea fishes, we should have adequate protein including 18 essentail minerals.
4. Deep sleeping was good for health. Pituitary gland would stop functioning between sleeping. The ways to get deep sleeping were to rest one's mind by simple meditation, and to relax before getting to sleep.
5. For the old ages, the brain cells could be diminished, but believing that under the brain tissues, there were stem cells that could build new brain cells. Finding from the man at the age over 70 who passed away that was investigated, and they found some new cells in his brain.
Factors which effected neuroplasticity were exercise [aerobic, meditation] and relaxing to minimize stress. we were able to increase brain cells by the factors following:- appropriate environment, brain care minerals, optimum brain use, exercise, and limiting only good advantage food. On the contrary, brain cells were destroyed by stress, too much steroid uptake, narcotics or addiction, getting old, and no energy exercise for brain.
6. Herbs is polyphenolics or phytochemicals. The properties of herbs were, antioxidation, infected minimising, promoting blood circulation etc. Lots of herbs contained vitamins and minerals. For example, Pak Liang[ผักเหลียง] and Pak Ka ched[ผักกะเฉด-neptunia or water mimosa] had high content of calcium and phosphorus.
7. For skin care, herbs had the function of antiwrinkle, whitening[ones that contain melanin] moisturizing, antioxidant and sun block. All of these, silk pupa case were indicated to be the good one except turmeric[ขมิ้นชัน] for antioxidant and crude rice bran oil for sun block.
8. For hair, anchan[water morning glory, blue pea], Makrood[leech lime,kaffir lime], Coconut, Ma kum dee kwai[มะคำดีควาย soapberry, soapnut], Aloe vera, banana, avogado, ginger, borapet, sesame, olive, graewkrur khao[กราวเครือขาว for senior female]
9. Pure wellness. To be in good condition of skin, we must look at detoxification[ by being sweaty] and rejuvenation[herbs]. Aesthetics skin care by natural beauty were as following, face cleaning[e.g. vegetable oil], eliminate ineffective cells on skin, skin maintenance, moisturiser, and UV protection. Aloe extract was one of these examples.
10. Herbs to maintain brain such as anchan[water morning glory], tabtim[pomegranate], mulberry, chocolate, and coffee.
Not paraben, e.g. methyl, butyl, propyl, ethyl, sodium laureth sulfate.
These were what I could note down from the meeting, I have to apologise for the scientific vocabulary mistakes because they were not in my field of work. In conclusion, the essential factors for being healthy were the right selection of food,particularly food from natural ways of producing, emphasized in vegetables and fruits [400gramme a day] whole grain or brown rice, and deep sea fishes. Second criteria was appropriate exercise until being sweaty, third was the stress elimination or think positively, and play jokes. The last thing was being in clean air which was a little hard for us. Hope that this message could be some advantage to you. Chavalvut.
