Jivamrit as a Sustainable Approach: A Review of Natural Farming and Future Agriculture.
Recent Adv Food Nutr Agric
October 2024
Article Synopsis
- - The Green Revolution aims to increase food production in India but has negative impacts on health and agriculture; natural manures like cow dung can help mitigate these issues by enhancing soil quality and crop yield.
- - Zero Budget Natural Farming (ZBNF) practices, particularly with Jivamrit, promote healthier soils and contain essential nutrients while fostering beneficial microbes that improve plant growth.
- - While Jivamrit uses natural substances to boost sustainable agriculture, long-term reliance on it could upset the microbial balance in the soil, underlining the need for careful management of agricultural practices.
Article Synopsis
- Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common reason for hospital stays and is linked to worse outcomes in obese patients, particularly those with high visceral fat.
- This study assessed the relationship between visceral adiposity and the severity of AP by measuring the visceral adipose tissue (VAT) area in patients admitted with the condition.
- Results showed that individuals with severe pancreatitis had larger VAT areas, suggesting that VAT could be a useful predictor of AP severity, warranting further research into its role as a prognostic indicator.
With substantial effects on human health, air pollution has become a major global concern. Air pollution has been linked to numerous gastrointestinal and respiratory diseases with increasing mortalities. The gut and respiratory dysbiosis brought about by air pollution has recently received much attention.

Nanoparticles have the potential to greatly raise agricultural output due to their wonderful applications in the fields of highly sensitive biomolecular detection, disease diagnostics, antimicrobials, and therapeutic compounds. The application of nanotechnology in plant virology is known as nanophytovirology, and it involves biostimulation, drug transport, genetic manipulation, therapeutic agents, and induction of plant defenses.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFHuman monkeypox virus (hMpoxV) is of zoonotic origin and is closely related to the once-dreaded smallpox virus. It is largely endemic to the African continent but has moved out of the endemic regions as sporadic clusters in the past 20 years, raising concerns worldwide. Human Mpox is characterized by a mild to severe, self-limiting infection, with mortality ranging from less than 1% to up to 10% during different outbreaks caused by different clades of MpoxV.
