Chakudya chokondedwa cha mamiliyoni, mankhwala omwe adalowa m'mbale iliyonse kuchokera ku saladi kupita ku mchere, mwala wapangodya muzakudya za anthu odya nyama ndi poizoni kwa odya zamasamba. Zikondwerero ndi ma memes a pa intaneti amaperekedwa kwa iye. Ndi za nyama yankhumba. Padziko lonse lapansi, ali ndi mbiri ngati chinthu chofunikira komanso chokoma, koma ngakhale ndi iye - osangalala! - pali masamba othandiza amapasa.
Asayansi ku Oregon State University apeza zomwe amati ndi nyama yankhumba. Pafupifupi zaka 15 zapitazo, Chris Langdon wa Faculty of Fish and Wildlife anayamba kufufuza za ndere zofiira. Chotsatira cha ntchitoyi chinali kupezeka kwa mtundu watsopano wa algae wofiira, womwe, wokazinga kapena kusuta, umakhala wofanana kwambiri ndi nyama yankhumba. Mitundu ya algae yofiirayi imakula mwachangu kuposa mitundu ina ndipo imatha kukhala gawo lofunikira pazakudya zamasamba.
Amapezeka m'mphepete mwa nyanja ya Atlantic ndi Pacific (makamaka kumpoto, kuphatikizapo Iceland, Canada ndi madera ena a Ireland, kumene akhala akugwiritsidwa ntchito ngati chakudya ndi mankhwala kwa zaka mazana ambiri), algae yatsopanoyi imakhala ndi mavitamini, mchere ndi antioxidants zomwe zimapanga. modabwitsa wathanzi. M'mbiri, akhala gwero lazakudya zakutchire komanso mankhwala achilengedwe popewa matenda a scurvy ndi chithokomiro. Monga algae ambiri, algae ofiira amatha kuwotcha kapena kusuta, komanso amawuma bwino. Kuphatikiza apo, akaumitsa, amakhala ndi mapuloteni 16%, omwe amawawonjezera mwayi wawo pofunafuna nyama zamasamba ndi zamasamba.
Poyambirira, ndere zofiira zimayenera kukhala chakudya cha nkhono za m'nyanja (chimenechi chinali cholinga cha phunziroli), koma pambuyo poti kuthekera kwa bizinesiyo kunachitika, akatswiri ena adayamba kujowina phunziro la Langdon.
"Red algae ndi chakudya chapamwamba chomwe chili ndi zakudya zopatsa thanzi kawiri kuposa kale," akutero a Chuck Toombs, mneneri wa University of Oregon College of Business komanso m'modzi mwa omwe adalowa nawo ku Langdon ntchitoyo ikupita patsogolo. "Ndipo chifukwa cha zomwe yunivesite yathu idapeza yolima ndere tokha, tili ndi mwayi woyambitsa bizinesi yatsopano ya Oregon."
Algae wofiira wodyedwa amatha kukhudzadi maganizo a ambiri: ali ndi thanzi labwino, osavuta komanso otchipa kupanga, ubwino wawo umatsimikiziridwa mwasayansi; ndipo pali chiyembekezo chakuti tsiku lina ndere zofiira zidzasanduka nsalu yotchinga anthu kuti asaphedwe kwambiri ndi nyama.
