Sinopsis

Italian Meal Culture explores how deeply Italian cuisine is embedded in the nation's history and social life. This book examines Italian dining customs and social food practices, showing how mealtimes serve as key social rituals that have shaped Italian culture for centuries. Did you know the act of eating in Italy is more than just sustenance? It's a complex performance full of historical weight and social meaning. The book focuses on the evolution of Italian cuisine, social dynamics around food consumption, and the cultural symbolism of mealtime traditions.

 
It starts by introducing concepts like the Mediterranean Diet and regional culinary variations, then uses key chapters to explore the historical roots of Italian cuisine from ancient Roman banquets to the development of regional specialties. The book also looks at how different dishes and dining customs represent Italian values, beliefs, and aspirations. It argues the dinner table is a stage where Italian identity is constantly negotiated.

German - zakazany pierwiastek...

dr Renata Zarzycka

German w formie organicznej jest zabroniony do zastosowania terapeutycznego w krajach europejskich. Tymczasem germanium jest uważane za pierwiastek śladowy o działaniu antyoksydacyjnym. Jako półmetal i półprzewodnik, germanium doskonale przewodzi impulsy elektromagnetyczne, co wpływa na przepływ informacji między komórkami i w układzie nerwowym między synapsami. Luminescencyjne działanie germanu na gospodarkę tlenową komórek w organizmie daje nadzieję wielu chorym na uzdrowienie, transportując tlen we krwi. Jest perfekcyjnym utleniaczem.Germanium należy do grupy przeciwutleniaczy, chroniąc przed chorobami związanymi z starzeniem się organizmu, m.in. chorobami układu ruchowego, zapaleniem stawów kręgosłupa i reumatoidalnym zapaleniem stawów (RZS), będącym chorobą autoimmunologiczną. German chroni również przed chorobami degeneracyjnymi, takimi jak białaczka, nowotwory, astma, cukrzyca, przedwczesne starzenie się, zaburzenia trawienia, choroby układu krążenia (choroba wieńcowa, miażdżyca, nadciśnienie), zapalenie stawów i kręgosłupa, choroba Parkinsona, epilepsja, zaćma i jaskra.Naukowcy twierdzą, że germanium stymuluje funkcje immunologiczne, dostarcza tlen do komórek, chroni przed promieniowaniem, spowalnia wzrost nowotworów i łagodzi dolegliwości. Tlen jest podstawą życia większości istnień na Ziemi, a ojciec medycyny Hipokrates mawiał: „Dajcie mi możliwość dostarczenia do organizmu wystarczającej ilości tlenu, a ja wzniecę w nim ogień.”
