الملخص

TLDRIn plants, primary metabolites are essential compounds such as proteins, carbohydrates, sugars, polysaccharides, vitamins, and minerals that help form the plant's structure and support its initial growth. As plants mature, they produce secondary metabolites, also known as phytochemicals, which play crucial roles in survival. These include defense mechanisms, self-signaling, and communication between plants. Secondary metabolites are known for their bioactive properties and are vital in maintaining healthy gene expression in humans. Modern health technologies utilize these compounds to enhance metabolic health by supporting proper gene expression.

    Primary metabolites are basic compounds essential for plant growth and development, forming the plant's structure. They include proteins, carbohydrates, sugars, polysaccharides, vitamins, and minerals. Secondary metabolites, or phytochemicals, are produced as organic compounds for survival, defense, signaling, and communication within plants. They are bioactive, supporting healthy gene expression and are used in core health technologies to maintain metabolic health.

    so what is the difference between
  • 00:00:01
    primary metabolites and secondary
  • 00:00:05
    metabolites found in plants primary
  • 00:00:08
    metabolites are compounds that help to
  • 00:00:10
    form the general shape and structure and
  • 00:00:13
    scaffold of a plant examples of primary

    metabolites are proteins carbohydrates
  • 00:00:20
    sugars polysaccharides and vitamins and

    minerals are also primary metabolites so
  • 00:00:29
    these compounds help to support the
  • 00:00:31
    plant as it first starts to grow
  • 00:00:33
    now once the plant is growing rapidly
  • 00:00:37
    and maturing the plant will then start
  • 00:00:41
    to produce beautiful organic compounds
  • 00:00:44
    these are natural compounds found in
  • 00:00:46
    plants also known as phytochemicals or
  • 00:00:50
    secondary metabolites these secondary
  • 00:00:54
    metabolites are produced by plants in
  • 00:00:56
    order to help the plant survive
  • 00:00:59
    secondary metabolites are also used in
  • 00:01:01
    plants for defense for self signaling
  • 00:01:05
    for plant to plant communication and
  • 00:01:08
    many other processes that we don't fully
  • 00:01:12
    understand as scientists but what we do
  • 00:01:15
    understand and know is that secondary
  • 00:01:19
    metabolites are the bioactive compounds
  • 00:01:21
    found in plants and these are the
  • 00:01:24
    compounds that help to maintain healthy
  • 00:01:27
    gene expression in the body so one of
  • 00:01:31
    the novel innovative technologies used
  • 00:01:35
    in core health is the incorporation of

    large amounts efficacious amounts of
  • 00:01:40
    secondary metabolites that help to
