Oh, you are amazing. You are a nurse! I wanted to be a medical practitioner at one point (but money was a problem for me, so I changed LOL).
Yes! the crop rotation, and farming improvement is next. I wanna make green houses, so that they could grow their food in all seasons. Imagine the mass production of food--from a small patch, to a huge areas filled with Cris-crossed plantation. I also want to introduce apiaries of bees too :D Love thinking about it.
Oh, can you please recommend any medical innovation that might be implementable and possible for their point of time? Poisons and medicines are great! Penicillin ( from my limited research and Dr. Jin Manga reference) seemed to be hard to do, especially since Madoka wasn't a trained medical practitioner. In Sanitize, Yui tried to grow her own penicillin, but it takes a long time. So I forgone the idea. But if it will be the most important innovation; probably she would work together with Tobirama and a Nara to find it.
Interesting. Which fruits and veges can be poison? I would like to know more!
Thank you so much for reading and discussing this with me :D Sorry i haven't update My Sweet Hatake yet, because this one stole my focus LOL. So much fun thinking about the innovation. But this one will be short, I think. 5 chapters at most. Maybe.
Yellow star fruit
Star fruit is low in calories, high in fiber, and loaded with vitamin C. Unfortunately, for anyone with weak kidneys, star fruit also has high amounts of oxalates. Ur for people that have kidney stones or kidney issues, too much of the fruit can cause kidney damage, seizures, and even death.
Ackee fruit,
If not prepared and eaten properly, can induce what's been called Jamaican Vomiting Sickness, which can even lead to coma, hypoglycemia, or death. It’s toxic when unripened, containing a poison called hypoglycin. Even when ripe, the seeds remain toxic. .
Elderberries
Most of an elderberry plant is poisonous, containing a cyanide-inducing glycoside in the roots, stems, leaves, and seeds. The poison will cause a build up of cyanide in the body which can cause vomiting, diarrhea, coma, or death. The berries also contain a small amount of the poison, located in their small seeds, which is destroyed when the berry is properly harvested and cooked.
Apricot kernels
In high enough doses, they're poisonous. Amygdalin, also called laetrile, is the substance found in the small, apricot kernel. It's converted into cyanide in the body, but that hasn't stopped it from being marketed as an alternative medicine, which is sometimes called vitamin B17. In high enough doses, amygdalin can cause the body to produce enough cyanide to lead to nervousness, insomnia, low blood pressure, and death.
Manchineel
The conquistadors referred to the fruit of this toxic tree, found on the Florida coast and throughout the Caribbean, as "little apples of death." But it's not just the deceptively sweet fruit, that resembles a green crab apple, that can kill you. The milky sap that oozes from the tree can blister and burn the skin on contact, and the fumes from its burning branches and leaves can lead to blindness if you happen to be downwind of the world's most poisonous bonfire. Eating just one bite of the manchineel tree's "beach apples" can cause vomiting, damage to the digestive tract, and death. The sap of the tree is said to have been the end of famed explorer Ponce de Leon, who was hit with a poison-manchineel arrow fired by the Calusa fighters whose land he sought to colonize.
European spindle
The European spindle is a tree found in parks, forests, and alongside roads all over Europe. In the autumn, the tree develops pinkish-red pods, that, when ripe, burst open into tantalizing white seeds with an orange coating. These colorful pods, unfortunately, are filled with several glycoside poisons, which, if eaten, can cause vomiting, dizziness, hallucinations, kidney failure, and death. The symptoms take a full 12-18 hours for onset, which means a sick person might not even remember which poison tree they ate the berries from once symptoms begin. The berries of the tree are not entirely unuseful, however. The oil from the seed was a successful treatment against parasites, lice, and ticks.
Pangium edule fruit
Native to Southeast Asia, the pangium edule plant is a tree that develops a large, brown fruit that is often called a football fruit. Used in many Indonesian dishes, football fruit is another example of a fruit that you really hope the chef knows what they are doing with, because the large seeds, as well as the leaves of the tree, are poison. Filled with hydrocyanic acid, the toxic plant and seeds can cause sleepiness, delirium, and death.In Philipine alternative medicine, it has been used to kill parasites, treat boils, and preserve fish.
Jatropha
Due to the hardy nature of this tree-like shrub, you can find jatropha trees in all corners of the world with tropical or sub-tropical climates. With high incidences of poisoning in children who are drawn to the sweet, yellow berries, with their poisonous black seeds that are filled with the toxin, ricin. When ingested, jatropha seeds can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and kidney damage.
Yew berries
The plant produces little red berries that contain a seed which is highly poisonous, as is the rest of this very toxic plant. The poisons found in the seeds and plant are taxins, and the taxol found in the western variety of the yew is even used to create a drug that treats breast cancer. Us humans should never risk eating this highly toxic berry, however. Just a few seeds can cause convulsions, rapid collapse, and death.
Strychnine
Other common names for the strychnine tree are "snakewood" and "poison nut," referring, no doubt, to the toxic berries the tree produces. It's been used for centuries for medical uses, but is perhaps most well known for being the murder weapon of choice for villains in works of fiction, as well as in real life over the course of history. Ingestion of strychnine leads to manic convulsions of the body that can be so severe that muscle tears away from bone. Victims are said to have achieved bodily positions that would not be possible otherwise, with death following from exhaustion or cardiac arrest.
Rhubarb
The glycosides and oxalates in rhubarb's leaves can cause burning of the throat and mouth, stomach pain, kidney troubles, and even coma if eaten in large quantities. Deaths are rare, but a few have been reported.
Lychee
When eaten before they are ripe, toxins in the fruit can lead to extremely low blood sugar; for those with already low blood sugar or suffering from malnourishment, the toxins can lead to a host of problems from fever to encephalopathy to death.
Raw Cashews
Raw cashews come complete with a resin called urushiol, which is the same compound that makes poison ivy so awful. It can cause pretty serious skin rashes and can be toxic when ingested or even fatal for anyone with higher sensitivity to urushiol.
Cassava
If not processed properly, its naturally occurring hydrogen cyanide can wreak havoc on thyroid hormones as well as affecting parts of the the brain relating to movement. Not to mention irreversible paralysis.
Sugar Cane
Sweet sugar cane does not come with its own naturally occurring toxins, but when stored for too long it can play host to a dastardly fungus called artbrinium. The fungus produces toxins that can cause a variety of unpleasant things from vomiting to death.
Potatoes
If your spuds have taken on a greenish cast or have sprouted, step away, as it’s here that the toxic alkaloid solanine is particularly concentrated. Even so, one would need to eat a lot of green potatoes to get to the point of vomiting, stomach pain, hallucinations or even paralysis, but still.
Raw Kidney Beans
A lot of beans come with the toxin phytohemagglutinin, which comes in especially high concentrations in raw red kidney beans; and while cooking is enough to render the toxin harmless, just a handful of raw beans can kick symptoms into gear. On the bright side, recovery is pretty quick.
Tomato
I know, I just said the tomato isn’t poisonous. The fruit isn’t, but the leaves, roots, and stem (and, in limited doses, even some unripe fruit) are rich in tomatine, an alkaloid that’s mildly toxic to humans. It won’t kill you, unless you chow down pounds and pounds of it, but it is likely to cause you some gastrointestinal distress.
Apples, Cherries, and Peaches
The seeds of all of these fruits are not considered edible; they’re hard, bitter, and unpleasant. That bitter flavor is a protective element: The plant puts it there to discourage animals like us from destroying them. And it comes from a substance called amygdalin, which turns into cyanide when it comes into contact with acids in the human digestive system. Cherries, peaches, and nectarines have the substance in much higher concentrations than apples.
Nutmeg
This sweet spice has been used as a drug in the past after the seeds were grounded to make a snuff. The reason behind this usage is the presence of an oxidase inhibitor known as myristicin. Ingestion of small quantities of nutmeg has no effects, but when consumed in large quantities, the myristicin content causes dehydration, hallucination, nausea, and paranoia and can even be fatal.
Almonds
Almonds are a source of vitamin E, healthy fats, and fiber and are a favorite snack for many people all over the world. Almonds come in two distinct flavors: sweet almonds and bitter almonds. Sweet almonds are safe to eat even in large quantities. However, ingestion of the bitter almonds has been heavily discouraged with some countries such as the US, imposing complete ban on their sale. Bitter almonds grown in the wild contain high levels of cyanide which are lethal when ingested. It is estimated that the amount of cyanide contained in 10-70 wild bitter almonds can be lethal to a healthy adult human.
Pufferfish
The fish secretes a poison (tetrodotoxin) that is 1,200 times deadlier than cyanide and is one of the most poisonous animals in the world. Although the fish has enough toxins to kill 30 people, it is a delicacy enjoyed predominantly in Japan. People eat the poisonous fish for its ability to induce a feeling of ecstasy.
Asparagus
Asparagus is a popular vegetable consumed for its high fiber content as well as its rich mineral contents. Only the stalks and shoots of this plant are ingested with its berries being poisonous. Ingesting a few of its berries cause severe diarrhea and vomiting. The effects can, be neutralized by consumption of ground charcoal.
There’s more but this won’t let me add more!! I hope this helps a little!!
