- Abstract:

Alternative food networks are emerging in opposition to industrial food systems, but are criticized as being exclusive, since customers’ ability to patronize these market spaces is premised upon their ability to pay higher prices for what are considered the healthiest, freshest foods. In response, there is growing interest in widening the demographic profile given access to these alternative foods ...

- Abstract:
- ... Cultural and economic shifts in the early 19th century led to the rapid development of companies that made good profits from technologically-produced commodities. In this way, some habits changed in society, such as the overconsumption of processed and micronutrient-poor foods and devices that gave rise to a sedentary lifestyle. These factors influenced host-microbiome interactions which, in turn, ...

Much of this is due to the propagation of companies and technologies aimed at providing minimally invasive procedures that can be performed in an out-patient setting. In addition, we have learned more about the biology of some of these cancers, and research has demonstrated that the low metastati ...
