Sinusitis is defined as a condition of inflammation
of the paranasal sinuses of which can develop headache as a result of
exposure to a cold or flu virus, or an allergic reaction to pollen,
mold, dust or smoke, etc..Sinusitis affects 37 million people each year.
II. Diet against Sinusitis
Fruits and vegetable contain measure amount of antioxidants of many
kinds of which prevent the forming of free radicals that can result of
abnormal structures causes of sinusitis such as cysts, polyp, etc. and
protect our body against foreign virus and bacteria invasion cause of
infective and inflammatory cause of sinusitis.(34). In fact, while the
water soluble antioxidants prevent oxidative forming in the cell cytosol
and the blood plasma, the insolvable antioxidants protect cell
membranes from lipid peroxidation.
Antioxidants also enhance the immune system in prevention of the chronic
rhinosinusitis (CRS) caused by a failure of the mechanical and
immunologic barriers across the nasal mucosa(35). there are evidence
that decreased levels of both reduced glutathione and uric acid in
patients with chronic sinusitis lead to a diminished antioxidant
defense, which may be associated with the pathogenesis of upper
respiratory tract disorders. This finding may offer perspectives for
pharmacotherapeutic intervention with antioxidants.(40)
1. Orange
a. In the reserach of Bioavailability and antioxidant effects of orange
juice (OJ) into habitual diet found that after the 3 week intervention,
plasma concentrations of vitamins A and E did not change.

(Lauraceae)], and rosehip [Rosa canina L. (Rosaceae)], found that the
dichloromethane, ethanol and water extracts of cinnamon showed the best
antioxidant effect among the extracts of the tested plants. The ethanol
extract of cinnamon exhibited 63.02% inhibition against
acetylcholinesterase and 85.11% inhibition against butyrylcholinesterase
(BChE) at 200 µg/mL, according to “Antioxidant and anticholinesterase
activities of eleven edible plants” by Boğa M, Hacıbekiroğlu I, Kolak
U.(43)
b. Besides is essential in preventing the breaking off small vein
cause of hardening of the vessel wall, vitamin C also improves the
digestive system in maximum absorption of vital nutrients. Overdoses can
cause diarrhea, It also plays an important role in enhancing immune
system fighting against the forming of free radicals that cause muscle
damage, according to the study of “Does antioxidant vitamin
supplementation protect against muscle damage?” by McGinley C, Shafat A,
Donnelly AE., posted in PubMed (44)
c. Since it contains high amount of flavonoid, it helps to improve
the immune system fighting against forming of free radical causes of
tumor and cancer, according to the study of “Dietary intake of selected flavonols, flavones, and flavonoid-rich foods and risk of cancer in middle-aged and older women” by Wang L, Lee IM, Zhang SM, Blumberg JB, Buring JE, Sesso HD., posted in PubMed(45)
3. Carrot
a. Purple carrot juice (usually orange inside) has demonstrated the
antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in improving glucose
tolerance as well as cardiovascular and hepatic structure and function,
according to the study of “Comparison of purple carrot juice and
β-carotene in a high-carbohydrate, high-fat diet-fed rat model of the
metabolic syndrome” by Poudyal H, Panchal S, Brown L. (46)
b. Carot juice may have a possible preventive effects in disease
causation and progression caused by Oxidative DNA damage due to its
antioxidant properties, according to the study of “Oxidative DNA damage
in human white blood cells in dietary antioxidant intervention studies”
by Møller P, Loft S.(47)
4. Whole wheat
In the classification of Anthocyanins of whole purple wheat, unpolished
red rice, and partially polished red rice before and after processing to
produce infant cereals and it antioxidant efect found that purple wheat
infant cereals had higher cellular antioxidant activity than unpolished
red rice ones (p < 0.05). Whole purple wheat infant cereals showed
higher antioxidant activity than the commercial infant cereal,
suggesting a possibility of improving infant antioxidant status by
incorporating this grain in their diet, according to “Comparative
Evaluation of the Antioxidant Potential of Infant Cereals Produced from
Purple Wheat and Red Rice Grains and LC-MS Analysis of Their
Anthocyanins” by Hirawan R, Diehl-Jones W, Beta T.(48)
5. Oat
a. In the investigation of beta-glucan of Oats and its effect in heart
health found that the polyphenols of oats have also recently been shown
to exhibit anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and anti-itching
activity, which may provide additional protection against coronary heart
disease, colon cancer, and skin irritation, according to “Potential
health benefits of avenanthramides of oats” by Meydani M.(49)
b. Selenium in Oat improves the immune system in
fighting the foreign invasion of virus and bacteria causes of infection
and inflammation, according to the study of “Selenium in the immune system” by Arthur JR, McKenzie RC, Beckett GJ., posted in PubMed(50)
6. Sun flower seed
a. In the investigation of Plant foods belonging to
different food groups such as cereals, legumes, oil seeds, oils, green
leafy vegetables, other vegetables, spices, roots and tubers and theirs
effect on cardiovascular diseases found that antioxidant
activity (AOA) and phenolic content (PC) was the highest in black
pepper (0.43 mg food required for 50% inhibition of the coupled
auto-oxidation of beta-carotene and linoleic acid in a mixture in vitro)
and it had the highest PC (191 mg gallic acid equivalent/100 g food).
The AOA (18.4 mg) as well as the PC (not detectable) were the lowest in
sunflower oil. PC in oil seeds was higher than that in the oil, which
could be due to the hydrophilic nature of phenolics and suggests the
need for greater use of oil seeds than oils, according to “Antioxidant
activity of commonly consumed plant foods of India: contribution of
their phenolic content” by Saxena R, Venkaiah K, Anitha P, Venu L,
Raghunath M.(51)
b. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), an enzyme
located in mitochondria, is the key enzyme that protects the
energy-generating mitochondria from oxidative damage caused by free
radicals, according to the study of `The role of manganese superoxide dismutase in inflammation defense`by Li C, Zhou HM.(52)
7. Olive oil
a. In the investigation of albumin, a serum protein present in the
developing brain, stimulates the synthesis of oleic acid by cultured
astrocytes by inducing stearoyl-CoA 9-desaturase, the rate-limiting
enzyme in oleic acid synthesis, found that oleic acid induces neuronal
differentiation, as indicated by the expression of growth associated
protein-43. Here, we report that the expression of growth associated
protein-43 mRNA peaks at about day 7 after birth, following the maximal
expression of stearoyl-CoA 9-desaturase-1 mRNA that occurs between days 3
and 5 postnatally, according to “Role of oleic acid as a neurotrophic
factor is supported in vivo by the expression of GAP-43 subsequent to
the activation of SREBP-1 and the up-regulation of stearoyl-CoA
desaturase during postnatal development of the brain” by Velasco A,
Tabernero A, Medina JM.(53)
b. In the analyzing the influence of a Mediterranean
dietary pattern on plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC) found that
Mediterranean diet, especially rich in virgin olive oil, is associated
with higher levels of plasma antioxidant capacity. Plasma TAC is related
to a reduction in body weight after 3 years of intervention in a high
cardiovascular risk population with a Mediterranean-style diet rich in
virgin olive oil, according to “A 3 years follow-up of a Mediterranean
diet rich in virgin olive oil is associated with high plasma antioxidant
capacity and reduced body weight gain” by Razquin C, Martinez JA,
Martinez-Gonzalez MA, Mitjavila MT, Estruch R, Marti A.(54)

body from forming of free radicals by promoting the proper DNA
replication and cells division, according to “Free radicals, metals and
antioxidants in oxidative stress-induced cancer” by Valko M, Rhodes CJ,
Moncol J, Izakovic M, Mazur M.(56)
9. Onion
a. Antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects
In the research of onion (Allium cepa) (ACE) extracts onion (Allium
cepa) extracts and theirs antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects found
that the biochemical and histological disturbances were effectively
attenuated on pretreatment with ACE. The present study showed that ACE
may be a suitable cardioprotector against toxic effects of (DOX)
doxorubicin, according to “Antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects of
onion (Allium cepa) extract on doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in
rats” by Alpsoy S, Aktas C, Uygur R, Topcu B, Kanter M, Erboga M,
Karakaya O, Gedikbasi A.(57)
b. Vitamin C
In the evaluation of pulmonary dysfunction. and it effects on pulmonary
dysfunction found that At present, evidence from randomised-controlled
trials is insufficient to recommend a specific role for vitamin C in the
treatment of asthma. Further methodologically strong and large-scale
randomised controlled trials are needed in order to address the question
of the effectiveness of vitamin C in children with asthma but some
outcome data showed effectiveness on lung function, symptom scores, IgE
levels and inhaled steroid use. One small study showed a significant
difference in % drop in FEV1 post-exercise, according to the study of
“Vitamin C supplementation for asthma” by Kaur B, Rowe BH, Arnold E.(58)
10. Garlic (59)
a. Garlic to fight COLD and FLU. The natural compoud Allicin is released
when garlic is crushed. Allicin works to fight cold, flu and other
infections by breaking down into smaller chemicals called Sulfur
compounds. They wake up your inmuune system, helping your body to get
rid of toxins and microorganisms naturally.
b. Garlic is the natural superfood healer for its natural antibiotic
with antiviral, antifungal, anticoagulant and antiseptic properties.
Garlic cooked is fine but it loses many of its health-giving powers. Raw
garlic does most of its antibiotic and preventive medicines. Here are
some of effective use of garlics for PROVEN DISEASE CURED.
11. Soybeen seeds
Extract from Virginia-grown soybean seeds had exerted its antioxidant
effect when compared for their total phenolic contents (TPC), oxygen
radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl
radical (DPPH(*)) scavenging activities, according to “Comparison of
