Brown Sea Vegetation - Not as Bad as You Might Think

Out of the three sea plant categories, the red sea plants, the green sea plants, and the brown sea plants, brown sea plants are the most commonly known around the world.

Brown sea plants are found in the many kelp beds around the world, and are usually the ones we have to deal with when swimming in the coast. Brown sea plants are good for your body because of what all they can do.

They contain alginic acid which combines with the toxins that are in your intestines and it makes it to where they can not be digested, and then it carries them out of your body.

The vitamins and minerals most commonly found in brown sea plants can include iodine, calcium, copper, Vitamin E, zinc, silicon, chlorophyll, and more. All of these vitamins and minerals are needed in your body every day. The food pyramid that you learned back in elementary school, is based on the intake of these vitamins and minerals.

This means that, where as the pyramid calls for eight servings of something per day just to get the right fill, you could replace that with a type of brown sea vegetation instead.

There is one type of brown plant, the Fucus Gardener, which is used for heart burn control. Brown sea vegetation has a high amount of alginic acid in it, which is only found in sea grown plants.

Some scientists even believe that eating some types of brown sea vegetation can help lower the risks for neurological problems such as schizophrenia. Brown sea plants also don’t taste as bad as they may look.

Brown sea vegetation in all is actually one of the few types of plant that can give you more of what you need without the plant having to be put through all different types of processes. There are no factories needed for these plants, and no risky pesticide either.

Green Sea Vegetation

While Green sea vegetation does not offer as much as the other two do, what it lacks in quantity, it makes up for with what It can do. Green sea plants can be found in both salt and fresh water, can be either really small or really large, and has the biggest amount of chlorophyll in the plant world.

Unlike the other sea plant types, green sea plants depend almost entirely on the sun, and are more commonly found in shallow waters. The benefits of eating green sea plants in a diet is that they help boost your immune system, can be used for stomach pains and problems, and can also fight allergic reactions.

Green sea plants can also help make your liver healthier, controls blood clotting, fights free radicals, lowers cholesterol levels, enhances skin, decreases high blood pressure, and stabilizes blood sugar in the body.

The studies that have been done on some green sea plants has come up with some really good findings. The plants showed the ability to reduce fat cells, kill cells that cause diseases, and all together clean the body of toxins.

The things that green sea plants can do are simply amazing, they have been shown to kill some cancerous cells in the human body, have been used for years to stop infections, lower inflammations and help maintain healthy cells in the nerves of our body.

They also have a high number of iron in them, more then that found in an egg yolk. Due to this, green sea plants are also used to help with problems caused by having low iron in the body. Arthritis is also some what cured with these plants and they can be used to help with osteoporosis as well.

With everything that this small group can do, it’s a wonder why we have not been eating and using sea plants in our lives to help with so many of the problems we have. Just this small group can do more for us then what land plants can.

The true history of the world wide web

Warning: You may be putting yourself in danger by reading this article and inhaling the information contained within. You have been warned. We can take no responsibility for anything that may happen to you now or in the future as a result of reading this article.
The US military is often credited with developing the world wide web, but this is of course erroneous. The true history of the web can be traced back to 1791 and the birth of Charles Babbage in London. It is a little known fact that Babbage was a part-time - indeed secret - member of the West Wales Women - a society that evolved from the need to pass on recipes and cuttings of daffodils amongst the ladies of nineteenth century Pembrokeshire and Carmathenshire.
At this time there was a prejudice against men learning the finer arts of flower arranging and flour sifting, and Babbage had to keep his membership of this august organisation secret if he wished to continue his membership of the Royal Society - a decision that was heart wrenching as can be seen from a cursory reading of his extant letters to his disabled mother-in-law.
Everyone knows that in 1856 Babbage invented the analytical engine, supposedly to manipulate symbols and mathematical formulae. On this his fame rests, yet it is a little known fact that if you press a copper switch on the obverse of the analytical engine it actually turns into a rudimentary web browser and allows the sending of basic html emails.
Research in Babbage's diaries has shown that between the lines that can be read, backwards, in invisible ink and inscribed in a mixture of morse code and a sino-latin language hybrid that Babbage seems to have invented himself are his real thoughts on his invention.
To add up and create actuarial tables was not the point of this computer. Babbage had immediately spotted the potential of his invention to allow his to download recipes and dress patterns from a central server owned by the West Wales Women. In the diaries his code for the West Wales Women is WWW and it seems that he used this abbreviation when sending and receiving emails.
Somehow the secrets of his invention slipped out to the military, who guarded his secrets all through the dark years of the twentieth century...
