Electric potato, sickness insurance link @ 09:11 AM

Electrocuting potatoes can help make them fight cancer when consumed, which can mean that people don’t need to claim on their sickness insurance as early as they otherwise might.

This vegetable treatment has been discovered by researchers at Obihiro University in northern Japan, who found that subjecting the potatoes to high-frequency sound waves can also have a similar effect.

The electrocution and sound-blasts help increase the levels of antioxidants in the potatoes, which are known to combat heart disease and cancer when eaten by humans.

However, it is unknown when – or even if – these techniques will be introduced into potatoes that consumers can buy, so people who have a family history of cancer or heart disease may still want to consider sickness insurance.ADNFCR-3251-ID-19929979-ADNFCR -- 0 comments: - Post your own comment
