"The water should always flow so that it is sufficiently cleaned. The harvest period extends from September to the beginning of flowering in May. In extensively driven culture, the plants remain up to ten years in culture. In intensive cultivation, the culture of each year or created after two years...\\

"Volatile constituents of the dried leaves and stems of Nasturtium officinale R. Br. collected after hydrolysis were analyzed by GC and GC/MS. The major volatile constituents of the leaves were 2-phenylethyl isothiocyanate (72.9%), pulegone (8.0%), heptyl isothiocyanate (4.9%) and 4-phenylbutyl isothiocyanate (3.2%), while the main volatile constituents of the stems were 2-phenylethyl isothiocyanate (83.5%), 4-phenylbutyl isothiocyanate (6.9%), pulegone (2.2%) and sec-butyl isothiocyanate (1.9%)." \\

"Phenethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), a natural dietary isothiocyanate, has anti-cancer activity in various in vitro and in vivo models... We have now demonstrated that PEITC is an effective inhibitor of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF), a transcription factor that plays an important role in expression of pro-angiogenic factors... Our data demonstrate that PEITC is an effective inhibitor of HIF activity. This may contribute to the anti-angiogenic and anti-cancer effects of PEITC." \\
