Ficus plant grown under a white LED grow light. A grow light is an electric light that can help plants grow. Grow lights either attempt to provide a light spectrum similar to that of the sun, or to provide a spectrum that is more tailored to the needs of the plants being cultivated (typically a varying combination of red and blue light, which generally appears pink to purple to the human eye).
The vegan diet, the strictest of the plant-based diets, excludes all animal-based foods. So, it’s one way to jump into plant-based eating with both feet! However, giving up foods like meat and ...
Many plants lose much of the remaining energy on growing roots. Most crop plants store ~0.25% to 0.5% of the sunlight in the product (corn kernels, potato starch, etc.). Photosynthesis increases linearly with light intensity at low intensity, but at higher intensity this is no longer the case (see Photosynthesis-irradiance curve). Above about ...
Depending on the amount of zinc in the diet (low, moderate, high), the German Nutrition Society (DGE) has established three different reference values for intake of zinc. [116] [117] For diets that include mostly or exclusively plant-based protein sources the DGE recommends 16mg of zinc per day for men and 10mg of zinc per day for women. [118]
A plant-based diet is also good for people with chronic conditions, like high blood pressure, heart disease and Type 2 diabetes, because you’re limiting saturated fats and sugars.
The zinc content of commercially available plant-based food ranges from 3 to 10 μg/g fresh weight. [77] Copper: Essential micronutrient: Cu 2+ 0.01 [71] 1 [70] CuSO 4: Plant sensitivity to copper is highly variable. 0.1 ppm can be toxic to some plants [71] while a concentration up to 0.5 ppm for many plants is often considered ideal.
