The fruit, the whole fruit, and everything about the fruit [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2013 Fruits come in an impressive array of shapes, sizes, and consistencies, and also display a huge diversity in biochemical/metabolite profiles, wherein lies their value as rich sources of food, nutrition, and pharmaceuticals. This is in addition to their fundamental function in supporting and dispersing the developing and mature seeds for the next ...

Mycotoxins in Fruits, Fruit Juices, and Dried Fruits
Journal of Food Protection, 2003 This review gives an overview of the presence of mycotoxins in fruits. Although several mycotoxins occur in nature, very few (aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, patulin, Alternaria toxins) are regularly found in fruits. It has been shown that the presence of fungi on fruits is not necessarily associated with mycotoxin contamination.

Memorizing fruit: The effect of a fruit memory-game on children's fruit intake
Preventive Medicine Reports, 2017 Food cues of palatable food are omnipresent, thereby simulating the intake of unhealthy snack food among children. As a consequence, this might lead to a higher intake of energy-dense snacks and less fruit and vegetables, a habit that increases the risk of developing chronic diseases.

Journal of General Internal Medicine, 2009 Charing Cross Hospital, London. High up on the 12th level, the city’s anatomy is spread out in the November sun. We merely glance at the view as we wait, full of anticipation, for the students to arrive. We are leading an experimental workshop for some 25 undergraduate medical students. They are unaware of just how experimental it is, hence our nerves.
