You can eat rice and potatoes if you have diabetes. However, you will need to eat smaller portions. One medium potato (3 potatoes / pound) is a serving. Find 3 potatoes at the store and put in the scale until it equals one pound. Rice can be a challenge because a little goes a long way for your carbohydrate count.
Temperature and sunlight are more important growth parameters than nutrient concentrations. Duckweed grows across a wide temperature range â between 6oC and 33oC â but weâve determined that it grows best in a range of 18oC to 24oC.n the right conditions, this tiny plant can double its mass every 24 â 48 hours. Close control of the production parameters for duckweed is relatively easy in the small ponds and tanks favoured by backyard food producers.
The pH of most natural water is between 5-9. Enteric viruses are stable in these conditions. On the other hand, many enteric viruses are more stable at pH 3-5 than at pH 9 and 12. Enteroviruses can survive at pH 11-11.5 and 1-2, but for only short periods. Adenoviruses and rotaviruses are delicate to a pH of 10 or greater and leads to inactivation.
