Heart healthy diet and myocardial infarction and venous thromboembolism
In the study to investigate the association of a heart healthy diet on risk of myocardial infarction (MI) and venous thromboembolism (VTE)., showed that High intake of fish, fruit, vegetables and polyunsatured fat had a 23% reduced risk of MI (HR 0.77; 95%CI: 0.60-0.98), but no association with VTE (HR 0.95; 95%CI: 0.64-1.40). A heart healthy diet showed an even more favourable association with MI in obese subjects (HR: 0.62; 95%CI: 0.41-0.95), but not with VTE. Our findings suggest that a heart healthy dietary pattern is associated with moderately reduced risk of MI, but not related to risk of VTE(1).

The Mediterranean diet: is it cardioprotective?
Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco that increasing scientific evidence suggests that the traditional Mediterranean diet may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. The cardiovascular benefits of this whole-diet approach may outweigh those of typically prescribed low-fat diets. The burden of coronary heart disease is enormous, and nutritional approaches that optimize cardiovascular health are essential(1).

Effectiveness and safety of 1-year ad libitum consumption of a high-catechin beverage under nutritional guidance
In a study to study to conduct based on a comprehensive cohort design using a
catechin beverage (containing 588 mg of tea catechins) and a control
beverage (containing 126 mg of tea catechins), data were analyzed using per protocol samples of 134 subjects (catechin
group, n = 77; control group, n = 57). Body weight and body mass index
were reduced significantly in the catechin group compared to the control
group. Changes in body weight during the study period were -1.1 kg in
the catechin group and 0.2 kg in the control group. In the catechin
group, the visceral fat areas at the start of the trial were significantly correlated with the magnitude of fat
reduction at the end of the trial. Under the guidance of a registered
dietitian, subjects in the catechin group who showed a reduction in
their fat-derived
energy percentage during the test period tended to reduce more body
weight than those with an increase in this percentage, although no
difference in total energy intake was noted between the two groups.
One-year ad libitum consumption of a catechin beverage posed no health
risks and resulted in a reduction in body weight(1).

Herbal Andrographis Hepatoprotective effect
Andrographis paniculata
is also known as Andrographis is a herbaceous plant, genus
Andrographis, belonging to the family Acanthaceae, native to India and
Sri Lanka. It has been used in traditional Siddha and Ayurvedic in
treating the common cold, flu, upper respiratory infections, infectious
diseases, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, pneumonia, swollen lymph nodes,
leprosy, bronchitis, sore throats, tuberculosis, chicken pox, etc.
The Ingredients
Beside the main ingredient andrographolides, giving the plant a bitter taste, other ingredients includediterpene lactones, such as: neoandrographolide, andrographiside, 14-doexy-11, 12-didehydro andrographolide, etc., flavonoinds viz., oroxylin, wogonin, andrographidines A, B, C, D, E, F.
The benefits
Administration of containing spray-dried aqueous extracts of Andrographis paniculata Nees. (Acanthaceae) PHF found to be pepatoprotective effect by significantly inhibited paracetamol, CCl(4) and ethanol-induced elevation levels of SGPT, SGOT, ALP, DB and LDH with little side effect, according to the study. Other in the study to evaluate the hepatoprotective effect of Andrographis lineata (Acanthaceae) extracts in carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury in rats, showed that the extracts exhibited hepatoprotective action and may be be considered to be used as a hepatoprotective agent. Also the chemical constituent andrographolide (AN) found in Andrographis, significantly restores serum glutamate oxalacetate transaminase and serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase level.
The Side effects
1. Antifertility
Dry leaf powder of A. paniculata increases the risk accumulating of glycogen and cholesterol in the testis, and increased activities of lactate dehydrogenase in testis and alkaline phosphatase in testis and ventral prostate, thus reducing the risk of fertility.
2. People with gallbladder disease may want to consult with their doctor before using because of the herb stimulating gallbladder contraction effect.

Food therapy - Black beans (Phaseolus) and Lipoprotein
Black bean is a Small roughly ovoid legumes with glossy black shells, genus Phaseolus, belongs to the family Fabaceae and can bought in most grocery stores all around the year in dried and canned forms. It is believed that black bean was first domesticated growth in South America.
Cholesterol is needed for our body to build cell walls, make hormones and vitamin D, and create bile salts that help you digest fat. However too much of it can be dangerous because cholesterol cannot dissolve in your blood. The special particle called lipoprotein moves this waxy, soft substance from place to place. If you have too much low density lipoprotein LDL that is known as bad cholesterol, overtime cholesterol can build up in your arterial walls causing blockage and leading to heart attack and stroke.
Nutrients and Chemicals constituents a. Nutrients

11. Manganese
12. Phosphorus
13. Molybdenum
14. Iron
10. Etc.
b. Chemicals constituents
The major chemical compounds of black bean include anthocyanin, (-)-epicatechin, delphinidin, petunidin, flavonols and malvidin.
The benefits
Low density lipoprotein in short LDL, is known as bad cholesterol. Most people with uncontrolled diet that is high in saturated fat have high levels of LDL Many studies have demonstrated that the daily intakes of black soybeed foods may have a potential to reduce cardiovascular risk. in the study of the inhibitory effect of black soybeans on low density lipoprotein (LDL) found that because of its total polyphenols contents in its seed coat, black soybeans may be more effective in inhibiting LDL oxidation than yellow soybeans. Others in the study to investigate the antioxidant activities of the hydrophilic extracts from 9 selected legumes based on copper-induced human LDL oxidation model in vitro, indicated that consuming black beans may have potential in preventing the development of atherosclerosis from the perspective of inhibiting LDL oxidation.
Side effect
1. Purines
Black beans contain purines, excessive intake of these substances can cause the accumulation of uric acid, leading to"gout" and kidney stones.

Herbal Aloe vera and Acne vulgaris
Aloe
Vera is species of succulent plant in the genus Aloe, belonging to the
Family Xanthorrhoeaceae, native to Sudan. It has become very popular for
commercial cultivation due to its health benefits. Aloe vera has been
used in herbal medicine in treating many kinds of disease, including
wound, burn healing, minor skin infections, sebaceous cysts, diabetes,
and elevated of cholesterol, etc. It is also one of many popular herb
studied in scientific ways with some conflicted results.
There are many types of skin diseases in this world, the most common one is acne. Most people know acne is caused by dirt in oily skin pores, but little is known that acne is also caused by the system of toxins in the body. If our liver and kidney can not cleanse all toxins in the body, then our skin become the third source for cleansing the remainder of toxins.
The Ingredients
The ten main areas of chemical constituents of Aloe vera include: amino acids, anthraquinones, enzymes, minerals, vitamins, lignins, monosaccharide, polysaccharides, salicylic acid, saponins, and sterols.
The benefits
Ance vulgaris, one of skin diseases with areas of scaly red skin with seborrhea, blackheads and whiteheads. Aloe vera one of many herbs has been studied and researched in pharmaceutical world, because of its common problem to the young ages and commercial profits. The study to compare the efficacy and safety of the combination of tretinoin (TR) cream (0.05%) and Aloe vera topical gel (50%) with TR and vehicle, has been well tolerated and significantly more effective than TR and vehicle for the treatment of mild to moderate acne vulgaris and with less side effects. Other researchers in the observation of traditional medicines of many cultures used to treat skin diseases, indicated that certain ingredients, including aloe vera, have been identified in the treatment of psoriasis and atopic dermatitis,
The Side effects
1. Hepatitis
Some researchers concerned that the over use of oral aloe vera may contribute to acute hepatitis, according to the study of "Oral aloe vera-induced hepatitis" by Bottenberg MM, Wall GC, Harvey RL, Habib S., posted in PubMed
2. Diarrhea, caused by the laxative effect of oral use of Aloe Vera
3. oral use of Aloe Vera may cause abdominal cramps and pain
4. It may cause of rheumatoid arthritis symptoms as a result of collagen in the plant
