Usually by pulping, cooking and adding cooking oil, we can increased it bita carotene in available form up to 39%. Also we can do chopping, frying, steaming for releasing up to 39%. This bita carotene is uptaken in human body as vitamin A. But if we eat excessive amount of carrot it causes little harmful to us. Mainly carotenosis is happened. It means skin turns into orange color. An urban legend says if we eat lot of carrot , it will increase our vision power at night.

Why DNA methylation Is Important for our body?

DNA methylation is  very important biochemical reaction for cell function in our body. The process by which a methyl group (one carbon atom attached to three hydrogen atoms) is added to part of a DNA molecule is known as DNA methylation reaction.
DNA methylation is so much important reaction in regulating gene expression for an individual.
Another so and so much important information is that DNA methylation reaction does not allow the expression of the genes which are related for various harmful and fatal disease such as viral and other disease-related genes.
Abnormal DNA methylation is responsible for many disease which are caused by poorly developed gene. It may also cause cancer.

In this case the vegetable named broccoli play a very crucial role for development of strong gene structure by better DNA methylation. Broccoli has shown to inhibit Helicobacter pylori (the bacteria thought to cause gastric ulcers).
The sulforaphane ( sulforaphane is present in broccoli ) plays a vital  role in activating more than 200 different genes in our body actively.
Broccoli also protects men from prostate cancer.
Kidney dysfunction may also caused by disturbance in DNA methylation.
So eat broccoli and keep your body disease free.

The process of activation, neutralization, and elimination of unwanted contaminants is helped by this trio. Isothiocyanates (ITCs) which  are knowns as  the detox-regulating molecules produced from broccoli's glucosinolates. At a genetic level, Isothiocyanates (ITCs) help to control the detox process.

Introduction

From the ancient time when people have learn to live in a group, the base of agriculture has established. Civilization and socialization was developing with the development of agriculture. Without the development of agriculture civilization and socialization was not possible from the ancient time. After development of agriculture industrialization was started. Because at beginning of industrialization age the inputs of industries was agricultural products. Still now most of the industrial inputs are agricultural products. Most of the countries of the world depend on the agriculture. No country can develop without giving the importance to agricultural sector.

Only agriculture provides as food and for this reason we can live a peaceful life. Being hunger we cannot live peacefully. So if agricultural research is not done how can the increasing population will live in the world? Every year a huge number of population is increased. So huge food is need every day. To insure food security in world we must be careful in agricultural research and developed countries must help the developing countries and under developed countries.
Agriculture insures nutrient security for us. for this reason many research are running in whole world. Only insuring food security and avoiding nutrient security a nation can produce a gammy nation.
From the ancient time agriculture gives as shelter and no one can refused it.
Agriculture provides the raw materials of cloths.
For producing medicine various medicinal plants are cultivated in whole world. Many farms and industries are existing in this sector in every country.
It has undoubtedly proved th

at no country can be developed without developing it's agricultural sector. All the developed country in the world at first developed it's agriculture than other sector.
I think agriculture is the base of all things. Because food security fully depend on agriculture. when we fulfill our food security than we have to think nutrition security. Nutrition security also fully depend on agriculture. By this way a nation will a healthy nation.

So agriculture is base of all things.
