The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition Skip to main page content Bitter taste, phytonutrients, and the consumer: a review. AbstractDietary phytonutrients found in vegetables and fruit appear to lower the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease. Studies on the mechanisms of chemoprotection have focused on the biological activity of plant-based phenols and polyphenols, flavonoids, isoflavones, terpenes, and glucosinolates. Enhancing the phytonutrient content of plant foods through selective breeding or genetic improvement is a potent dietary option for disease prevention. However, most, if not all, of these bio active compounds are bitter, acrid, or astringent and therefore aversive to the consumer. Some have long been viewed as plant-based toxins. As a result, the food industry routinely removes these compounds from plant foods through selective breeding and a variety of debittering processes. This poses a dilemma for the designers of functional foods because increasing the content of bitter phytonutrients for health may be wholly incompatible with consumer acceptance. Studies on phytonutrients and health ought to take sensory factors and food preferences into account.Here is a video that taks about Matol Km bitter taste https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1cJtIOybTM Here is mynew site ...read more

“The countless names of illnesses do not really matter. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause: too much tissue acid waste in the body”, A very witty statement from Dr. Theodore A. Baroody, author of book Alkalize or Die. Many factors can contribute to various diseases. But, little is known about the fact that over-acidity causes more illnesses and all boil down to our poor diet and unhealthy standard of living. An enormous problem affecting the 95% of the westernized world and with the percentage of 70% of reported death in United States linking to diet related disease is very alarming and must not be taken for granted. People are responsible to retain the pH balance of blood, as the main important factor in regulating our body temperature and strengthening bodily functions and systems. A microbiologist, Dr. Young, states that over-acidity can totally interferes with life itself. Losing the alkalinity of the body corrodes body tissue and damage all cellular activities and functions- from breathing, blood circulation, digestion, and hormone production.

Now, you're probably wondering why I even posed this question to you. Fact is, you are aware of your health care but even more than that you may be looking at the Matol Botanical distributorship opportunity as well.( Sold to Univera in 2009) In any case, there is more to Matol Km and its attractive range of natural products. You decide in the end if this opportunity is ripe for you and we will run through a few facts together. Let's begin. 1) The Journey Of Two Men Quite simplythe story ofMatolcould be traced back to the lives of two men namelyKarl Jurak and J.F. Robert Bolduc.It will probably be always a mystery of figuring out how the Matol Botanical formula came about but it all started withMr. Karl Jurak. One incident was that when Karl was mountain climbing back 1922, he also perfected a formula herbal remedy of 13 botanicals. It was only in 1982 when Karl's son Anthony would introduce the family brew to Robert.That is how the Matol story really started to take off. 2) The Product Or The Opportunity? Since its inception Matol Km has been said to maintain you vital energy by eliminating toxins and balancing the acidity level (pH level), Plus, its supposed to reduce your stress level by a regular dosage. In a nutshell, Matol Km is really a botanical concoction of a health remedy not evaluated by the FDA and should be thought of as traditional supplement. One of the way of marketing comes from Anthony and Roberts belief of direct salesmanship. 3) The Truth Behind Matol Distributorship Here's something else. Your main concern right now might be the compensation plan. Matol essentially operates on a network marketing or MLM system. By this, you have to factor in such things like personal group volume (PGV), commission points (CP) and organizational volume (OV). The bottom line is your compensation really depends on two things: (a) Enrolling more distributors under you in the Matol opportunity, and (b) Helping your team to make sales of Matol Km so you can leverage on the organizational compensation.
