This Sidewalk Crack Contains More Nutrition Than Your Whole Kitchen

There is a plant in your driveway that contains more omega-3 fatty acids than fish oil. For 4,000 years, every major civilization cultivated it as food. Egyptian physicians prescribed it. Roman soldiers carried it. Thomas Jefferson grew it at Monticello. Then in 1947, chemical companies began a campaign to reclassify this plant as a weed. They spent $9 billion convincing you to poison it. This is Portulaca oleracea—purslane. And the science proving its value has been published for decades. 400mg of omega-3 per 100 grams. The only land plant containing EPA. Higher antioxidant content than most vegetables in your kitchen. NASA is testing it for Mars colonization. But in your yard, it's target weed #7 on the Roundup label. This is the story of how an essential food became classified as a pest, and why the herbicides we use to kill it cause the diseases purslane prevents. Every claim in this video is cited below. See for yourself. REFERENCES: Simopoulos, A.P., Norman, H.A., Gillaspy, J.E., & Duke, J.A. (1992). "Common purslane: a source of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants."
