Nditasuzumira pawindo la ofesi yanga, ndinaona malo okongola komanso kapinga kakang’ono kokutidwa ndi maluwa achikasu owala kwambiri, ndipo ndinaganiza kuti, “N’chifukwa chiyani anthu sakonda dandelions? Pamene akubwera ndi njira zatsopano zapoizoni zochotseratu "udzu" uwu, ndimasilira makhalidwe awo azachipatala okhudzana ndi mavitamini, mchere ndi zina.
Posachedwapa, asayansi awonjezera luso lolimbana ndi tizilombo toyambitsa matenda pamndandanda wochititsa chidwi wa thanzi la dandelion. Asayansi ochokera ku yunivesite ya Huaihai, ku Lianyungang, ku China anapeza kuti dandelion polysaccharides ndi yothandiza polimbana ndi Escherichia coli (E. coli), Bacillus subtilis, ndi Staphylococcus aureus.
Anthu amatha kutenga matenda a E. coli pokhudzana ndi ndowe za nyama kapena za anthu. Ngakhale zikumveka zosatheka, kuchuluka kwa chakudya kapena madzi kumayipitsidwa ndi bakiteriyayi kungakuchenjezeni. Nyama ndiye vuto lalikulu ku United States. E. coli ikhoza kulowa mu nyama panthawi yopha nyama ndikukhalabe yogwira ntchito ngati kutentha kwa mkati mwa nyama panthawi yophika sikufika madigiri 71 Celsius.
Zakudya zina zomwe zakhudzana ndi nyama yowonongeka zimatha kutenga matenda. Mkaka wosaphika ndi mkaka ungathenso kukhala ndi E. coli pokhudzana ndi mawere, ndipo masamba ndi zipatso zomwe zakhudzana ndi ndowe za nyama zimatha kutenga matenda.
Bakiteriyayu amapezeka m’madziwe osambira, m’nyanja ndi m’madzi ena komanso mwa anthu amene sasamba m’manja akatuluka kuchimbudzi.
E. coli wakhala ali nafe nthawi zonse, koma tsopano asayansi akunena kuti pafupifupi 30% ya matenda a mkodzo omwe amayamba chifukwa cha matendawa ndi osachiritsika. Pamene ndinali kufufuza buku langa lomwe likubwera, The Probiotic Miracle, ndinapeza kuti asanu peresenti okha ndi omwe anali osamva zaka khumi zapitazo. Asayansi apeza kuti E. coli yapanga luso lopanga chinthu chotchedwa beta-lactamase, chomwe chimalepheretsa maantibayotiki. Njira yotchedwa "extended-spectrum beta-lactamase" imawonedwanso ndi mabakiteriya ena, njirayi imachepetsa mphamvu ya maantibayotiki.
Bacillus subtilis (hay bacillus) amapezeka nthawi zonse mumlengalenga, madzi ndi nthaka. Bakiteriya samakonda kukhala m'thupi la munthu, koma amatha kuyambitsa chisokonezo ngati thupi likukumana ndi mabakiteriya ambiri. Amapanga toxin subtilisin, yomwe imagwiritsidwa ntchito pochapa zovala. Mapangidwe ake ndi ofanana kwambiri ndi E. coli, choncho amagwiritsidwa ntchito nthawi zambiri mu kafukufuku wa labotale.
Staphylococcus aureus (Staphylococcus aureus) sizowopsa. Ngati mukuwerenga nkhani za ma superbugs osamva maantibayotiki m'chipatala, mwayi mukuwerenga za MSRA, Staphylococcus aureus yolimbana ndi methicillin. Bungwe loona za umoyo ku Canada linati, bakiteriya ameneyu ndiye amene amachititsa kuti chakudya chiziipiraipira. Matendawa amapezekanso polumidwa ndi nyama komanso kukhudzana ndi munthu wina, makamaka ngati ali ndi zotupa za staph. Kuchuluka kwa MSRA kukuchulukirachulukira m'malo odzaza anthu monga zipatala ndi nyumba zosungirako okalamba, ndipo zizindikiro zimatha kukhala kuyambira kunyansidwa kwakanthawi kochepa komanso kusanza mpaka kugwedezeka kwapoizoni ndi kufa.
Asayansi aku China atsimikiza kuti dandelion, udzu wonyozedwawu, uli ndi chinthu chomwe chingagwiritsidwe ntchito ngati chosungira chakudya, kuchepetsa chiopsezo cha mabakiteriyawa. Kufufuza kwina n'kofunika kuti tipeze mankhwala ophera tizilombo toyambitsa matenda pa duwa lolimbali.
