Cayenne and Breast cancer
Cayenne is also known as Cayenne Pepper, a red, hot chili pepper,
belonging to Capsicum annuum, the family Solanaceae, native to
sub-tropical and tropical regions. It has been used in traditional
medicine to increases metabolism, enhance circulatory system and
stomach and the intestinal tract, adjust blood pressure, lower LDL
cholesterol and triglycerides, treat frostbite, muscles, arthritis,
rheumatism, low back pain, strains, sprains, bruises and neuralgia, etc.
Breast cancer (malignant breast neoplasm) is a cancer that starts in the tissues of the breast either from the inner lining of milk ducts (Ductal carcinoma) or the lobules (Lobular carcinoma) that supply the ducts with milk. there is also rare cases that breast cancer starts in other areas of the breast. In 2010, over 250,000 new cases of breast cancer were expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S. alone and the risk of getting invasive breast cancer during life time of a women is 1/8.
Ingredients
The chemical constituents of Cayenne include capsaicin, capsacutin oil, solaine, xanthenes, oleic acid, palmitic acid, etc.
The benefits
Capsaicin found in red peppers of the genus Capsicum has been effectively exerting its biological activities (anticarcinogenic, antimutagenic and chemopreventive) in many cancer cell lines.
In breast cancer cell line MCF-7, treatment with capsaicin for 24 h resulted cells apoptosis in dose dependent manner through a caspase-independent pathway, which plays an important role in ensuring the effective removal of defective cells(5) MCF-7 cells. Other, in the study of the same showed that Capsaicin extract induced significant growth arrest and apoptosis in human breast and leukemia cancer cell lines in vitro with no significant effect on normal breast epithelial cells. These result suggested cayenne may be a potential agent in treating breast cancer.
The Side Effects
1. It may cause allergic reaction in young children
2. It may also cause hypertensive response if overdosed.
3. It may promote symptoms of acute anal fissure.
4. It may cause burning sensation to certain people in the first taste
5. Do not use cayenne pepper in young children
6. Etc.

Phytochemical Allyl isothiocyanate and liver cancers
Allyl isothiocyanate is phytochemical containing sulfur in the class of organosulfur compound, found abundantly in horseradish, mustard, wasabi, etc.
Liver cancer is defined as a condition of irregular cell growth in the liver.
In SK-Hep1 human hepatoma cells, Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) showed to exhibit its anti liver cancer effect through suppressing tumor cell migration and cell behaviors via MMP expression, which plays an important role in breaking down of different human cancers with poor disease prognosis(1).
The phytochemical together with its N-acetylcysteine conjugate also showed the reversal of transcriptase polymerase chain reaction in dose-dependent manner through inhibition of MMP-2/-9 messenger RNA levels which involves in cell proliferation (2). Unfortunately, some researchers suggested that Organosulfur compounds, may induced histone acetylation expression, the enzymes fundamental roles in developmental processes and their deregulation has been linked to the progression of diverse human disorders, such as cancers(4) and thereby favor cell differentiation(3).

Herbal Cinnamon and Infertility
Kyle J. Norton
Cinnamon, a kitchen spice in many cultures, may be best known for its effect in reduced levels of blood glucose in diabetics and lipid peroxidation through its antioxidant activity(4) . Its underline mechanisms in enhancing fertility in both sexes are unknown.
Infertility is defined as the inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse or the cannot carry the pregnancy full term. It affects over 5 million couples alone in the U. S. and many times more in the world. Because of an unawareness of treatments, only 10% seek help from professional specialists. In fact, about 35% of infertility is caused by the male's inability to fertilize. 35% is caused by the female's inability to conceive, 10% attributes to both, and 10 % is considered a failure with an unknown cause.
A 45 women randomized, 26 women completed 3 months of the study, and 17 women completed the entire 6 months of the study, with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, showed a positive effect in improvement of menstrual cyclicity associated to Luteal phase progesterone levels and ovulatory menses without altering insulin resistance or serum androgen levels(1). Cinnamaldehyde, a major chemical compound of cinnamon, also showed to enhance fertility through selectively induced progesterone production and inhibited production of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone in human adrenal cells(3).
Its extract in PCOs study not only showed to reduce insulin resistance in vitro and in vivo by increasing phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity in the insulin signaling pathway, but also improved menstrual cyclicity through significant reductions in insulin resistance(8).
In infertile male rat study conducted by Fırat University, long-term cinnamon bark oil(CPO) improved the effect on testicular oxidant-antioxidant balance and sperm quality with significantly decreasing the abnormal sperm rate and apoptotic germ cell count(2).
The study in male rat reproductive system induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4 ), the cinnamon bark oil(CPO), also showed a significant improvements in absolute weights of testis and epididymis, all sperm quality parameters, LPO level, apoptotic index and testicular(6)
Taken altogether, Cinnamon may be effective in promoting fertility in both sexes through enhancing the menstrual cycle in women and improving sperm performance in men. Unfortunately, according to DR. Georgakopoulou EA(6), Oral intake of Cinnamon may cause Stomatitis, and burning sensation in mouth with large amount. The traditional Chinese medicine also insisted that Overdoses of cinnamon can be toxic and damaged to liver(5).

Herbal catnip as repellent
Catnip is also known as catswort, or catmint, a plant of Nepeta, belonging to the family of Lamiaceae, native to Europe and Asia. It has been use in herbal medicine as insect repellant and to treat digestive disorders, children restlessness and nervousness, fevers, cold and flu, skin irritations stimulate sweating, promote menstruation, etc..
Ingredients
Beside the major constituent of terpenoid nepetalactone, the herb also contains α-Pinene, β-Pinene, Cyclohexen-1-yl-methyl ketone, Triplal, Thymol, Nepetalactone, Nepetalactone, etc.
Herbal catnip as repellent
Catnip may be used as repellent agent in protect skin against insect and used as mosquito repellent against several Aedes and Culex species, both topically and spatially and can be considered as a relatively safe repellent, which may cause minor skin irritation.(1).
In Stomoxys calcitrans (L.) (Diptera: Muscidae) study, chemical compound from catnip oil such as isolongifolenone, 2-methylpiperidinyl-3-cyclohexen-1-carboxamide and (1S,2'S)-2-methylpiperidinyl-3-cyclohexen-1-carboxamide, showed a significant effect in repellency against stable flies(2).
But in the study by Chemicals Affecting Insect Behavior Laboratory, catnip oil and nepetalactone isomers are significantly less effective when compare with the repellents N,N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (deet) and chiral (1S,2'S)-2-methylpiperidinyl-3-cyclohexene-1-carboxamide (SS220)(3).
Side effects
1. Overdose of Catnip may cause central nervous system depression.
2. Long-term exposure induced tolerance to stereotypic behavior, catalepsy and sleeping time, and increased the susceptibility to seizures.
3. Catnip may interacts with other medication if used on a daily basis
4. Etc.

Herbal Cat's claw as Antioxidants
Cat's claw found in in the tropical jungles of South and Central
America, is a genus Uncaria, belonging to the family Rubiaceae. It has
been used in traditional medicine over two thousand years as a tonic,
contraceptive, anti-inflammatory and infectious agent, and to treat
diarrhea, rheumatic disorders, acne, diabetes, cancer and diseases of
the urinary tract, etc..
Ingredients
The chemical constustuents of Cat's claw include, ajmalicine, akuammigine, campesterol, catechin, carboxyl alkyl esters, chlorogenic acid, cinchonain, corynantheine, corynoxeine, daucosterol, epicatechin, harman, hirsuteine, hirsutine, iso-pteropodine, etc.
Free radicals are atoms, molecules, or ions with unpaired electrons through chemical bonds with other atoms or molecules during a chemical reaction. They may have positive, negative or zero charge. The unpaired electrons cause radicals to be highly chemically reactive in the human body, leading to aging and cancers.
Herbal Cat's claw has found to be efficacy for treatment of osteoarthritis, probably through its anti inflammatory and antioxidant mechanisms.
According to the, oral administration of Cat's claw protected against indomethacin-induced gastritis, and prevented TNFalpha mRNA(proteins are key regulators of T-cell activation, migration, and proliferation) expression and apoptosis due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities(1).
Pteropodine, a chemical compound isolated from Cat's claw, showed to exert its cytostatic, anti-inflammatory and antimutagenic properties in DPPH assay(2).
Aqueous and ethanolic extracts of the Uncaria tomentosa bark, in the study at the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences, supported the antioxidant effect of the extract with the most in total phenolic compounds of the alcoholic preparations butmay cause undesirable gastric effects(3).
Other chemical compound, proanthocyanidins found in the decoctions prepared from the bark of Uncaria tomentosa (cat's claw) also was found to exert its high capacity to reduce the free radical diphenylpicrylhydrazyl, and by its reaction with superoxide anion, peroxyl and hydroxyl radicals as well as with the oxidant species, hydrogen peroxide and hypochlorous acid(4).
Side effects
1. It may cause allergic reaction, including itching, rash and allergic inflammation of the kidneys, etc. to certain people, according to the article of `Uncaria Tomentosa`by Wikipedia(a)
2. If you are taking blood pressure medicines, blood-thinning medications, hormones, or insulin do not take cat's claw
3. Do not take Cat's claw if you are pregnant or breast feeding with out approval of your related field specialist
4. Do not take cat’s claw if you have low blood pressure or an autoimmune disease (such as lupus or multiple sclerosis) or have had an organ or bone marrow transplant.
