Herbal Therapy: Green tea, the Best Immunomodulated Functional Foods

By Kyle J. Norton


The use of plants for healing purposes have been predated long before the existence of modern medicine. Herbal plants have formed a fundamental source for conventional medicine in discovery of single ingredient medication, including aspirin (from willow bark), quinine (from cinchona bark), and morphine (from the opium poppy)......

Green tea is found to consist a strong immunomodulating effect, affecting the innate and adaptive immune systems, a renowned institute study suggested

Green tea, a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and Western world. However, as yin in nature herbal medicine or food, long term injection of large amounts may obstruct the balance of yin-yang, induced "yin excessive syndrome" or "yang vacuity syndrome" induding weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory.

According to the Harvard Medical School, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) isolated from green tea expressed a strong effect on T cell functions, including T cell activation, proliferation, differentiation, and production of cytokines.

Injection of the phytochemical in animal model showed significant effects in regulated T cell dysfunction in expression of autoimmune inflammatory diseases as well as ameliorated T cell-mediated autoimmune diseases.

Furthermore, in naïve CD4(+) T cells proliferate and differentiate into different effector subsets, green tea EGCG inhibited the pro inflammatory Th1 and Th17 cells, subsets of Th cells responsible for inducing autoimmunity, thus improving symptoms and reducing the pathology of autoimmune diseases.

Additionally, Dr. Wu D, the lead author said, "(The) protective effect EGCG is associated with the suppressed proliferation of autoreactive T cells, in reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines of  Th1 and Th17, and increased T cell regulation populations in lymphoid tissues and central nervous system".

Further evaluation of green tea EGCG effect in regulated CD4(+) T helper (Th) subsets Th1, Th9, and Th17 cells conducted by the Tufts University, potulated that the phytochemical impeded Th1, Th9, and Th17 differentiation in exhibited inflammation by prevented IL-6(the pro inflammatory cytokine)-induced suppression of Treg development.

More importantly, in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) rats, EGCG improved function of CD4(+) T cell through modulated the expression of IL-6 induced cytokin(gp130) in response to auto immune function and cellular response.

Taking together, green tea process a strong immunomodulating effect in reduced risk and treatment of auto inflammatory and immune disease, but long term and large amount intake should be taken with care to prevent toxicity.

Food Therapy: Coffee, the Gout Killer Functional Food

By Kyle J. Norton

People who turn to alternative medicine for treatment of disease in avoidance of adverse effects induced by conventional medicine should be patient. In compared to herbal medicine; food therapy even takes longer to ease symptoms, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Good News for coffee lovers, coffee consumption daily is associated to reduced risk and treatment of
chronic and recurrent gout. a renowned institute proposed.

Gout mostly effected one joint, is an acute and recurrent condition of arthritis as a result of uric acid building up in blood, inducing joint inflammation.

Coffee, becoming a popular and social beverage all over the world, particular in the West, is a drink made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

According to the joint study lead by the Central South University, in the review literature of PubMed and EMBASE databases, up to April 2015, out of total of 11 observational studies (6 cross-sectional, 3 cohort and 2 case-control studies), coffee consumption showed a significantly inverse association with incidence of gout.

The study also found out that the efficacy of coffee consumption in reduced risk of gout showed no significant difference between the highest and the lowest coffee intake in terms of serum uric acid (SUA) level.

Additionally, in the total of 45,869 men with no history of gout at baseline with intake of coffee, decaffeinated coffee, tea, and total caffeine evaluated in every 4 years, participants in returned questionnaires  indicated that increasing coffee intake was (1-3, 4-5, and > or = 6 cups per day) inversely associated with the risk of gout depending to numbers of cups consumed daily.

The related risk of gout incidence in coffee drinkers is as low as .41 in compared to non coffee consumed participants.

Most importantly, the total caffeine levels from all sources, including coffee and tea intake showed no associated risk of gout.

Other researchers, in the finding of gout developed, suggested that coffee intake of 4 to 5 and >/=6 cups daily lower risk of gout in compared to no intake (0.26 mg/dl and and 0.43 mg/dl respectively) and total caffeine from coffee and other beverages and tea intake were not associated with serum uric acid levels.

Also, according to the data from 14,758 participants ages >/=20 years in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1988-1994), coffee consumption is associated to ameliorated serum uric acid level and hyperuricemia frequency.

Taking together, coffee consumption is associated to attenuated risk and treatment of gout caused by elevated serum uric acid level, depending to numbers of cup intake daily.

Food Therapy: Coffee, The Anti Edema Therapeutic Beverage?

By Kyle J. Norton

In compared to herbal medicine, food therapy may take longer than six months to ease symptoms, depending to stage of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Good news for coffee drinkers, coffee may have a potential effect in reduced risk and treatment of edema, a recent study suggested.

Edema is a condition characterized by excess fluid retained in body's tissues, inducing swelling.

Coffee, becoming a popular and social beverage all over the world, particular in the West, is a drink made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

According to the joint study lead by the Kyung Hee University, chlorogenic acid (CGA) isolated from coffee exerted protective effects of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAo) rat model in ameliorated brain infarct volume and brain water content.

The protective effect in reduced on ischemia-induced neuronal damage and brain edema.is attributed to dihydrocaffeic acid (DHCA, formed in metabolism of CGA in inhibited enzymes involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, namely MMP2 and MMP-9. in providing structural and biochemical support to the surrounding cells.

In a rat model of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion, CGA directly showed a significantly reduced brain water content, by the inhibitory effects on MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities.

The study also addressed that the attenuation of brain edema may also be effected by the chemical compound's anti lipid peroxidation (LPO) activity through increased antioxidant expression.

Other study in the investigation of anti-inflammatory activity against carrageenan, PGE(2) and serotonin-induced hind paw edema and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-13-acetate (TPA)-induced mouse ear edema models, chlorogenic acid (CGA), also exerted a significant anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activity against serotonin-induced hind paw edema and TPA-induced mouse ear edema, researchers at the Gazi University postulated.

The findings suggested that coffee may be used as functional and therapeutic beverage for reduced risk and treatment of edema, more studies are necessary to confirm the promising validity.

The use of plants for healing purposes has been predated long before the existence of  modern medicine. Herbal plants have formed a fundamental source for conventional medicine in discovery of single ingredient medication, including aspirin (from willow bark), quinine (from cinchona bark), and morphine (from the opium poppy)......

Study from renowned institute suggested that injection of loe vera may be reduced riak and treatment of oral submucous fibrosis.

Oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF or OSF) is a chronic condition involved oral cavity caused by inflammatory reaction and progressive fibrosis of the submucosal tissues.

Aloe Vera is species of succulent plant in the genus Aloe, belonging to the Family Xanthorrhoeaceae, native to Sudan. It is very popular for commercial cultivation due to its health benefits, 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.

According to the Sibar Institute of Dental Sciences, after 3 months of Aloe Vera treatment, patients with oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF or OSF) showed a reduced levels of burning sensation and improved mouth opening.

In a total of 20 patients with oral submucous fibrosis, 10 in each group; group A subjects received 5 mg of aloe vera applied topically three times daily for 3 months and group B subjects received antioxidant capsules twice daily for 3 months study, group treated with aloe vera showed a statistically significant improvement of symptoms in comparison to control group.

Dr. Sudarshan R, the lead researcher in the study said, ". Aloe vera showed a statistically significant reduction in burning sensation (P = 0.008), improvement in mouth opening (P = 0.02), and cheek flexibility (P = 0.01) on comparing with the antioxidant group".

In support of the above differentiation, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group randomized controlled trial conducted on 60 subjects with OSMF by Institute of Dental Sciences, Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, insisted that group receiving aloe vera had a significant improvement in most symptoms of OSMF (P < .01) compared with the non-aloevera group,

Other researchers suggested that the analgesic effects aloe vera in reduced symptoms and treatment of oral submucous fibrosis should be accompanied with proper habit restriction together with physiotherapy exercises.

The study also emphasized the effectiveness of treatment in ameliorated symptoms, such as burning sensation,  mouth opening, tongue protrusion and cheek flexibility in comparison to other treatment groups.

Taking together, no doubt, aloe vera is effective in attenuated symptoms and treatment of patient with oral submucous fibrosis, but intake of large amount should only be prescribed by herbalist.

Aloe Vera has shown to express to the antibacterial infection and scavenging properties with the rate of over 75% in compared to ascorbic acid (92%) a renowned institute suggested.

Aloe Vera is species of succulent plant in the genus Aloe, belonging to the Family Xanthorroeaceae, native to Sudan 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. The plant is very popular for commercial cultivation due to its health benefits,

Antioxidants are the set of molecules with functions in binding the production of free radicals causes of oxidative stress to the body and fighting against the invasion of bacterial organism.

According to the Monash University Malaysia, Aloe vera bioactive compounds exerted inhibited effects against numbers of bacterial strands, particular in Bacillus (20.7%), Pseudomonas (20.7%) and Enterobacter (13.8%).

Dr. Akinsanya MA, the lead author in the joint study suggested that the efficacy of Aloe Vera is the result of the production of bioactive compounds with high DPPH, (organic chemical compound with) scavenging properties (75-88%).

In fact, in vitro, the testing various phytochemicals such as total phenolic content antioxidant activity, A. vera methanolic leaf extracts exhibited a strong antioxidant activities in free radical scavenging assay, metal chelating assay, hydrogen peroxide scavenging assay.

Although, Aloe Vera may have a significant antioxidant property but different agro-climatic conditions may effect the total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant potential of the plant.

The findings that Aloe Vera has exerted the antioxidant effects in various aspects, but intake of large amount should be taken with care.

Food Therapy: Black Bean, A Potent Anti Diabetes whole Food Medicine

By Kyle J. Norton

People who turn to alternative medicine for treatment of disease in avoidance of adverse effects induced by conventional medicine should be patient. In compared to herbal medicine; food therapy even takes longer than six months to ease symptoms, depending to stage of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Black bean with abundant phytochemicals and fibers may be considered as function food in reduced risk and treatment of diabetes, a renowned university postulated.

Black bean, a small roughly ovoid legumes with glossy black shells, genus Phaseolus, belongings to the family Fabaceae 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.

Diabetes is a medical condition ccharacterozed by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream to regulate the glucose. It is either caused by cells in pancreas dying off or receptor sites clogged up by fat and cholesterol. In some cases, diabetes is also caused by allergic reactions of cells in the immune system.

According to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, bioactive peptides protein isolated from black bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) exhibited anti-diabetic activity by inhibiting important molecular markers, a particular sequence of DNA related to diabetes.

The study also stressed that certain types of peptides showed some degrees of different inhibitory potential on α-glucosidase, in compared to others. 

In C57BL/6J Mice fed a High-Fat Diet, black adzuki bean (BAB) extract exerted significantly anti diabetic effects in improved pancreatic β cells function in maintained mediation of normal glucose.

Furthermore, mice fed with dietary supplementation of black bean extract also significantly enhanced hyperglycemia and homeostasis measured by insulin resistance index, observed by expression of glucose intolerance, and regulated insulin secretion.

More importantly, in the comparison of protective effects of black bean peel extract (BBPE), pomegranate peel extract (PPE) and a combination of the two (PPE + BBPE) on streptozotocin-induced DM mice, mice treated with black bean or combination of black bean showed a strong improvement of fasting blood glucose and insulin levels, and pancreas weight index exerted through antioxidant in reduced oxidative expression.

Mice treated with PPE + BBPE also indicated a positive influence in ameliorated oxidative stress-against damage of pancreatic islets.

The finding evidences suggested that black bean, as a functional food may have a potential and therapeutic effect in prevention and treatment of diabetes.
