Metin GUMUS et al.,[1]. In this study, hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) kernel oil was tested and studied as an alternative fuel in diesel engines. The hazelnut kernel oil is made to undergo transesterfication process for reducing the viscosity of the oil. The processed hazelnut kernel oil possesses all the properties of biodiesel used in the diesel engine. The suitable transesterification reaction conditions for hazelnut kernel oil are volumetric ratio of the reactants in the ratio 1:5, reaction…

Having the proper balance of vitamin levels is essential to our overall health. There are beneficial due to their ability to aid in preventing and treating diseases such as, heart problems, high cholesterol, and eye and skin disorders. There 13 vitamins produced by humans are separated into either water soluble, or fat soluble. Water soluble vitamins such as B and C are easy to be absorbed in the body.

Food security and nutrition is important in Togo so all residents have safe and nutritious foods to meet their dietary needs and prevent them from disease. Lack of food security leads to malnutrition, which “can result in negative physical outcomes such as inadequate growth, stunting, and wasting, as well as negative impacts on mental development”(Wendland, 2008).

As a matter of fact, it is estimated seventy five percent of processed foods on supermarket shelves ranging from soda beverages to soup, cracker, and…

diseases, produce bigger yields, contain more nutritional value, and can create an essential sustainable way to feed the world. GMOs are very common and most of us include them in our daily meals. The most common Genetically Modifies Foods are corn, soybeans, potatoes, papaya, squash, canola, and milk. One of the benefits of GMOs is the use of fewer pesticides, meaning, "The adoption of GM insect resistant and herbicide tolerant technology has reduced pesticide spraying by 553 million kg…

salted beef, 3 ounces of chocolate, 14 ounces of hard biscuits (400 grams), coffee and sugar. 1925 , the meat menu pork and beans were replaced by (pork and beans) and canned goods. At last, flour and non-meat appeared. It should be noted that soybeans first appeared in American combat food. But it is still far from full-fledged…

Whilst having aided the growth of society, technological advances have also helped to negatively debase its moral development. Agent Orange was a chemical meant to accelerate the growth rate of soybeans. In the future this technological advance in high quantity became a herbicide and a defoliant, the opposite of its original purpose. During the Vietnam war, 77 million liters of it were used by the U.S. Military as a weapon against the Vietnamese. Over four hundred thousand Vietnamese people…

The coalition held a rally Oct. 7 on Capitol Hill that sought to spur Senate action on the legislation. The event attracted about 140 people from a wide range of farm groups and food companies. Nancy Johnson, executive director of the North Dakota Soybean Growers Association, was among those planning to attend the Oct. 7 rally on Capitol Hill. Food labeling has been handled on the national level for more than a century, and requiring it now for GMO food in individual…

acids. For example, certain foods such as, nuts and beans are lower in the amino acid methionine but higher in the amino acid lysine. Most grains are actually higher in methionine and lower in lysine. So by mixing beans and grains like quinoa and soybeans one receives the full nine necessary amino acids. Certain foods consumed in large quantities can also supply all of the essential amino acids. For example, if one was to eat 2-1/2 cups of tofu every amino acid would be accounted for, supplying…
