Fructans are oligomers and polymers formed by polymerizing fructose from transport metabolite sucrose on one out of three possible starter trioses 1-kestose yields inulin-type (2 1)-p-D-fructans, 6-kestose yields levan-type (2 6)-p-D-fructans (Fig. 3A), and neo-kes-tose yields mixcD-type and/or branched (2 1), (2 6)-p-D-fructans (Fig. 3C). Pronounced fructan metabolism is found in composites (chicory, Jerusalem artichoke), Liliaceae (onion, chives, garlic), cereals (wheat, barley, rye, oat), Asparagaceae (asparagus), Amaryllidaceae (banana), and Agavaceae (agave). 

Several sulfiir-containing amino acids, other than cysteine, cystine, and methionine, are found in higher plants. Allium (Liliaceae) species often contain sulfur compounds that are lachrymatory in nature (Fig. 13.17). Among these species are chives, garlic, onion, and leeks. The compounds involved are 5-substituted cysteine sulfoxides and their hydrolysis...

The herbs chives and garlic chives also belong to this family, as does the perennial Egyptian or tree onion, which produces aerial bulbs in place of flowers these may sprout and grow in situ. Flowers of leeks and garlic may also produce tiny bulbs in place of seed.

Food allergy to spices accounts for 2% of all cases of food allergies but 6.4% of cases in adults. Prick tests to native spices in 589 patients with food allergies showed frequent sensitization to the Liliaceae garlic, onion, and chive (4.6% of prick tests in children, 7.7% of prick tests in adults) (1). 

Common chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are a hardy (Zone 3) perennial herb grown for their mild, onion-flavored leaves and pink flowers. Garlic chives (A. tuberosum) are slightly less hardy (Zone 5), and have larger, straplike leaves and white, rose-scented flowers. To grow healthy, trouble-free plants, sow seed indoors in 60°-70°F soil mix, or outdoors after soil has warmed. Chives do best in moderately rich, moist, well-drained soil with a pH between 5.0 and 7.0. Chives need full sun.

Alliums are garlic, onions, scallions, shallots, ramps, leeks, and chives, which are all botanically related. Although they are usually thought of as foods, these powerful herbs contain many active sulfur compounds that have shown the ability to prevent cancer. 

Garlic loves Roses, Raspberries and stonefruit, and vice versa. Chives like Carrots, Roses and Apple trees, but not Peas and Beans. 

A short section written by James Duke is presented with the titled Quack Salad and Cancer (Bricklin, 1976, pp. 249,250). Based on folklore as per Jonathan Hartwell s findings, and for those who might like to five dangerously, the list consists of absinthe, arnica, atriplex, beet, black walnut, borage, calendula, celery, chicory, chive, chufa, colocynth, crimson clover, crown vetch, cucumber, cumin, flax, garlic, hot pepper, hcorice, onion, peanut, poke salad, safflower, salvia, tamarind, tansy, tea, and tomato. No curative claims are made, but over half are said to have compounds that have been useful in cancer treatments. 

The usage level recommended by FEMA is 1.0 ppm. According to Winter et al. (1975a), it gives an onion and garlic note to a sugar syrup at a concentration of 1-10 ppm. It is also described as having alliaceous, coffee and chive tonalities (Chemisis, 1962). 

Use a mix of whatever fresh herbs you have on hand—parsley, chives, fennel, and tarragon are all good choices. The garlic and beet mashes freeze well, but the herb mash doesn t. 

Encourage natural predators—chickadees, ladybugs, and lacewings will pick off aphids, while underplanting with chives or garlic will help to deter them. Nectar-rich flowers, such as wildflowers, will attract pollinating insects. 

The principal phenolic acids in these vegetables are ferulic and p-coumaric acid derivatives, the green parts of chives and leeks containing more than in the white part. In leek, the white tissue contains 6-7 mg ferulic acid per kg f.w., while this compound reaches concentrations of 23-39 mg/kg in the green parts [64]. In the case of chive, p-coumaric acid derivatives reach 21-51 mg/kg and ferulic acid derivatives 32-76 mg/kg. In garlic a different pattern of phenolic metabolite accumulation is observed in skins and internal tissues. The external tissues contain 49-58 mg/kg p-coumaric acid, 27-31 mg/kg ferulic acid and 27-25 mg/kg sinapic acid, whereas the internal tissues only contain 2mg, 6-8 mg and 2 mg/kg, respectively. In addition, the internal tissues contain 12-13 mg/kg p-hydroxybenzoic acid [64].
