Fainting also known as Syncope of "black out" is defined as a
condition of sudden loss of consciousness followed by the return to full
wakefulness in a short duration as a result of abnormally low blood
pressure. In most cases, it is caused by hypotension, with blood
pressure that's lower than 90/60 mmHg.(1). Even though Low blood pressure
has mainly been regarded as good health for people who exercise, but
recent studies have indicated an association with depression in elderly
people. there are epidemiological evidence for an association of low blood pressure
with anxiety and depression, which is not caused by cardiovascular
disease.(2). In some case, severely low blood pressure can seriously
impair
adequate blood flow to vital organs and a life-threatening condition
called shock.
B. Diet against syncope
1. Salmon
a. Cardiovascular disease
It
contains high levels of Omega-3 Fatty Acids that helps to reduce the
levels of bad cholesterol, thus reducing the risk of hardening of
arteries and veins and damaging the functions of amino acids in
repairing the cardiovascular tissues according to the study of "Fish oil
for the treatment of cardiovascular disease" by Weitz D, Weintraub H, Fisher E, Schwartzbard AZ, posted in PubMed(32)
b. Antioxidants
In
the research of the antioxidant effect of vitamin E after ingestion of
salmon found that that megadoses of vitamin E, far from having
pro-oxidative activity, actually increase the anti-oxidative capacity
of the liver, especially after ingestion of salmon oil, according to "Effects of megadoses of dietary vitamin E on the antioxidant status of rats fed lard or salmon oil" by Flader D, Brandsch C, Hirche F, Eder K.(33)
c. Omega 3 fatty acids
Omega 3
fatty acids is necessary to maintain the ratio of good and bad
cholesterol, thus reducing the risk of cholesterol inflammation
according to the study of "In vitro fatty acid enrichment of macrophages alters inflammatory response and net cholesterol accumulation"
by Wang S, Wu D, Lamon-Fava S, Matthan NR, Honda KL, Lichtenstein
AH., posted in PubMed (IV) and forming of free radical in the heart
cells, leading to heart diseases. It also reduces the risk of plaque
forming in the arterial wall, thus also decreasing the risk of stoke,
according to the study of "N-3 vs. saturated fatty acids: effects on the arterial wall" by Sudheendran S, Chang CC, Deckelbaum RJ., posted in PubMed (34).
2. Flaxseed
a. Cardiovascular health
In the research of Flaxseed and its effect on cardiovascular risk found that
flaxseed can modestly reduce serum total and low-density lipoprotein
cholesterol concentrations, reduce postprandial glucose absorption,
decrease some markers of inflammation, and raise serum levels of the
omega-3 fatty acids, ALA and eicosapentaenoic acid. Data on the
antiplatelet, antioxidant, and hypotensive effects of flaxseed, however,
are inconclusive. More research is needed to define the role of this
functional food in reducing cardiovascular risk, according to "Flaxseed and cardiovascular risk' by Bloedon LT, Szapary PO.(35)
b. Hypercholesterolemic atherosclerosis
In the evaluation of Flaxseed
(Type I flaxseed) and CDC-flaxseed (Type II flaxseed) and theirs
effect onhypercholesterolemic atherosclerosis found that Type II
flaxseed reduced the development of atherosclerosis by 69%, according to
"Reduction of hypercholesterolemic atherosclerosis by CDC-flaxseed with very low alpha-linolenic acid" by Prasad K, Mantha SV, Muir AD, Westcott ND.(36)
c. Omega 3 fatty acids
Besides well known for its benefits for the maintenance of a healthy cardio-vascular system, according to the study of "Omega-3 Fatty acids for cardiovascular disease prevention"
by Defilippis AP, Blaha MJ, Jacobson TA, posted in PubMed(37) and
proper ratio of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acid and prevent blood clotting, it
also extends the portion of your cycle in which you are fertile, by
promoting natural ovulation, according tothe study of "Postpartum
ovarian activity in multiparous Holstein cows treated with bovine
somatotropin and fed n-3 fatty acids in early lactation" by Carriquiry M, Dahlen CR, Weber WJ, Lamb GC, Crooker BA., posted in pubMed (38)
3. Garlic (39)
a, Garlic for VARICOSE VEINS. Garlic helps to keep your blood from
clumping or becoming too sticky, helping your blood move through your
blood vessels and reduces the risk of blood clots. One clove a day
should do the trick. You can also take garlic capsules. CAUTION:
Medication and Garlic could lead to uncontrolled bleeding and spell
HEMORRHAGIC STROKES if it occurs in your brain. To avoid this, take
caution against taking standardized garlic extract. Experts suggest
eating no more than one clove of garlic a day.
b. Garlic For BLOOD FORTIFIER. Raw garlic is said to do a super job of
blood fortifying. It also helps REJUVENATE the body. Eat raw garlic and
garlic supplements daily.
c. Garlic For CHOLESTEROL: Eating 4 cloves of garlic a day can cut total
CHOLESTEROL by 70%(Fresh or Supplement). The member of the allium family
fights poor circulation.The sulfur compound in garlic keep your
platelets from clumping together.
4. Black Beans
a. Nervous system
Protein is
essential for the brain in transmitting information between themselves
and cells in the other parts of the body, thus reducing the blood sugar
levels from rising too rapidly after a meal, reducing the risk of
nervous symptoms cause of anxiety, stress and depression, etc.,
according to the study of "The planar polarity protein Scribble1 is essential for neuronal plasticity and brain
function" by Moreau MM, Piguel N, Papouin T, Koehl M, Durand CM, Rubio
ME, Loll F, Richard EM, Mazzocco C, Racca C, Oliet SH, Abrous DN,
Montcouquiol M, Sans N (40)
b. Antioxidant
Black bean
contains flavoinoid, the powerful antioxidant (it contains more
antioxidant than any bean in the same family with difference skin
colors). It not only enhances the immune system in regulating cells in
DNA replication and division, but also improves the immune system in
fighting against the forming of free radical and protects our body from
infection and inflammation. In a study of "Evaluation of Crocus sativus
L. stigma phenolic and flavonoid compounds and its antioxidant activity" by Karimi E, Oskoueian E, Hendra R, Jaafar HZ., posted in Pubmed (41), researchers found that In summary, saffron stigmas showed antioxidant
activity and methanol appeared to be the best solvent to extract the
active components, among which the presence of gallic acid and
pyrogallol might contribute towards the stigma's antioxidant properties.
c. Low-density lipoprotein
in the evaluation of fermentation on the
contents of total phenolics and amino nitrogen pf balck bean and their
lowering cholesterol effect found that the A. awamori-fermented black
soybean prepared at 30 °C for 3 days exhibited the highest inhibitory
effect on LDL oxidation. The bioactive principles related to the
inhibitory effect on LDL oxidation in black
soybeans, regardless of fermentation, could be most efficiently
extracted with water rather than 80% methanol or 80% ethanol, according
to "Fermentation with Aspergillus
awamori enhanced contents of amino nitrogen and total phenolics as well
as the low-density lipoprotein oxidation inhibitory activity of black soybeans" by Chen YF, Lee SL, Chou CC.(42)
5. Broccoli
a. Potential heart health benefits
In the investigation of cruciferous vegetables which include broccoli,
cabbage and cauliflower and theirs bioactive components in functional
foods effect for the improvement of health found that the molecular
basis of the biological activities of the chemicals present in broccoli
potentially responsible for health promotion, from chemoprevention to
cardio protection, are outlined based on in vitro and in vivo studies
with a note on the structure activity relationship of sulforaphane
and a few other isothiocyanates, according to "Potential health benefits of broccoli- a chemico-biological overview" by Vasanthi HR, Mukherjee S, Das DK.(43)
b. Free radicals
Broccoli helps to
fight against the forming of free radical by detoxificating and
cleansing the toxins accumulated in the body, according to "Effect of broccoli (Brassica oleracea) and its phytochemical sulforaphane in balanced diets on the detoxification enzymes levels of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) exposed to a carcinogenic and mutagenic pollutant" by Villa-Cruz V, Davila J, Viana MT, Vazquez-Duhalt R.(44)
6. Blueberries
a. Antioxidant Capacity
In the investigation of Blueberry
and blackberry wines commercially available in Illinois and theirs
potential health benefits, found that fruit wines made from blueberries
and blackberries may have potential health applications and therefore
could contribute to the economy of the wine industry. Practical
Application: The majority of wines are produced from grapes, but wine
can also be produced from other fruits including blueberries and blackberries, which contain phenolic compounds that may contribute to human health, according to "Comparison of Chemical Composition and Antioxidant Capacity of Commercially Available Blueberry and Blackberry Wines in Illinois" by Johnson MH, Gonzalez de Mejia E.(45)
b. Cardiovascular health
In the determination
of polyphenols, especially anthocyanins, micronutrients, and fiber in
berries, including to chokeberries, cranberries, blueberries,
and strawberries found that purified anthocyanin extracts have
demonstrated significant improvements in LDL oxidation, lipid
peroxidation, total plasma antioxidant capacity, dyslipidemia, and
glucose metabolism. Benefits were seen in healthy subjects and in those
with existing metabolic risk factors. Underlying mechanisms for these
beneficial effects are believed to include upregulation of
endothelial nitric oxide synthase, decreased activities of
carbohydrate digestive enzymes, decreased oxidative stress, and
inhibition of inflammatory gene expression and foam cell formation.
Though limited, these data support the recommendation of berries as an
essential fruit group in a heart-healthy diet, according to " Berries: emerging impact on cardiovascular health" by Basu A, Rhone M, Lyons TJ.(46)
