Strange Ideas in the Nutri-Sphere
One of the ideas floating around in the nutri-
sphere is that you should eat specific foods
seasonally. That is, you should eat foods,
particularly fruits and vegetables, only when
they are in season.
The idea, so far as I can tell, comes from some
adherents to the Paleo diet (which I happen
to be a big fan of). In ancient times, people
had no choice but to eat seasonally. Later,
some simple methods of food preservation
developed, including drying or pickling foods
for later consumption.
Adherents of this approach forget that ancient
humans had to be dietary opportunists to survive.
They didn’t have the luxury of picking and
choosing their foods or when to eat them.
They ate whatever they could get their hands
on, whenever they could get their hands on
food. The alternative was starvation.
Personally, I think the idea of eating seasonally
is unhealthy. With rapid transportation of fresh
foods from around the world, or the availability
of frozen foods (which are almost as good),
we can eat any number of fruit and vegetable
varieties throughout the year.

The benefit, of course, is that we can consume
nutrient-dense, vitamin-rich healthy foods
all year long. Not availing ourselves of this
opportunity would be a little like saying we
should avoid nutritional supplements for half
the year. It just doesn’t make sense. It’s far
more important to consider the quality of
food and to buy organic varieties whenever
possible.
Vitamin D Anti-Cancer
Mechanism Identified
Researchers at the University of Wisconsin
have identified a key mechanism that helps
vitamin D prevent and possibly slow the
development of cancer. It is generally known
that c-MYC is a transcription factor that
activates genes involved in the proliferation of
cancer. Activity of c-MYC is usually elevated
in patients with cancer. In cell and mouse
studies, the researchers found that vitamin
D can suppress the activity of c-MYC. At
the same time, vitamin D boosts the activity
of MXD1, which helps control c-MYC. The
researchers wrote that their findings “provide
a compelling mechanism” to explain the role
of vitamin D in cancer prevention.
