Hippocrates lived about 2,500 years ago. The interpretation of his quote is that the ideal food should have in addition to normal food, nutrients like Sugar, Elements, Vitamins and Fatty Acids.

1. About Sorghum Bicolor
Literatures

2. ABSTRACT OF
SORGHUM LITERATURE
Trans-piceid and trans-resveratrol were
authenticated for the first time by high-
resolution mass spectrometry in red sorghum
grains

3. white sorghum samples
The white sorghum samples contained only
traces of trans-piceid (up to 0.1 mg/kg), and
trans-resveratrol was absent. In much lower
amounts than procyanidins, stilbenoids are not
able to contribute significantly to the
exceptional antioxidant activity

4. Growing Interest In
Natural Alternatives
The growing interest in natural alternatives to
synthetic petroleum-based dyes for food
applications necessitates looking at
nontraditional sources of natural colors

5. High Performance Liquid
Chromatography
We used High Performance Liquid
Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectroscopy
to characterize sorghum leaf sheath pigments,
Sorghum bicolor and measured the stability of
isolated pigments in the presence of bisulfite at
pH 1.0 to 7.0 over a 4-wk period.

6. Anthocyanin &
Phenolic Contents
Extracts from leaf sheaths of farmersvarieties of
dye sorghum cultivated and used in Benin as a
source of biocoloringswere analyzed for their
anthocyanidin and phenolic contents, as well as
their antioxidant capacity.

7. The Apigenin Content
Of Theleaf Sheaths
The apigeninidin content of theleaf sheaths was
30 times higher than that in cereal bran and
ranged from 14.7 to 45.8 mg/g, with an
average of 31.3 mg/g.

8. Opportunities For Food
Applications.
It increased molecular complexity of the dimeric 3-
deoxyanthocyanidins compared to their monomers
may be responsible for their unusual stability in the
presence of bisulfite; these compounds present new
interesting opportunities for food applications.

9. Chemical & Biochemical
Properties
3-Deoxyanthoxyanins (3-DXA) possess unique
chemical and biochemical properties and may
be useful in helping reduce incidence of
gastrointestinal cancer

10. Health-Promoting
Phytochemicals.
3-Deoxyanthocyanidins are structurally related to the
anthocyanin pigments, which are popular as health-
promoting phytochemicals. Here, it is demonstrated
that the 3-deoxyanthocyanidins are more cytotoxic
on human cancer cells than the 3-hydroxylated
anthocyanidin analogues and natural remedy for
diabetes

11. Highly Virulent
Diseases
Cancer is one of the highly virulent diseases known
to humankind with a high mortality rate. Breast
cancer isthe most common cancer in women
worldwide. Sorghum is a principal cereal food in
many parts of the world, and is critical in folk
medicine of Asia and Africa.

12. Natural Cancer
Therapy
Usage of HS as a dietary supplement is an
inexpensive natural cancer therapy, without any side
effects. We strongly recommend the use of HS as an
edible therapeutic agent as it possesses tumor
suppression, migration inhibition, and anti-metastatic
effects on breast cancer

13. vascular endothelial
growth factor (VEGF)
PARE administration inhibited tumor growth
and metastasis formation by suppressing
vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
production. The results suggested that PARE
had antioxidant and antitumor activities.
