Herbal Therapy: Green Tea, the Best Functional in Reduced Risk and Treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

By Kyle J. Norton

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)......


Green tea may be considered as a potential pharmacotherapy for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), 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" including weaken immunity and painful case of GERD,... according to traditional Chinese medicine's Yin-Yang theory. Adding a slice of ginger will resolved the problem.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition of lung disease caused by obstruction of air flow in normal breathing.

In a total of 13,651 adults from three Dutch cities examined from 1994 to 1997. observation of dietary intake estimated using a food frequency questionnaire, and flavonoid intake calculated using specific food composition tables, showed a significant effect of flavonoid intake regularly in reduced risk COPD.

According to the returned questionnaire, total catechin, flavonol, and flavone intake was positively associated with FEV1 in air flow of a deep breath and inversely associated with chronic cough and breathlessness, common symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

More specified, Dr. Tabak C, the lead author said, "Flavonol and flavone intake was independently associated with chronic cough only"

Furthermore, Chafuroside A (CFA), a water-soluble flavone C-glycoside, isolated from oolong tea, in oral administration exhibited at 0.5mg/kg or higher exhibited a profound effect in attenuated inflammatory symptoms in a dose-dependent manner, in experimental asthma/chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-like model.

In fact, Biomarker profiling revealed that the CFA/SAM at 0.1mg CFA/kg equipotent to CFA at 1.0mg/kg testing result also expressed protective activity against antigen-induced airway inflammation.

Taking together, there is no doubt that green tea may be used as a therapeutic and functional food for reduced risk and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) through expression of plant phytochemicals, but large amount intake regularly should be taken with care in prevented toxicity.

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

Intake of kidney beans may result in increased risk of the developed intestinal atrophy, the renowned institute study suggested.

Kidney beans with kidney shape, strong flavor and color of reddish brown in nature are often the excellent dietary selection with no cholesterol, but a good source of protein and minerals.

Intestinal atrophy is the abnormality of small intestine mucous membrane, caused by bacterial infection.

According to the University of Utrecht, animal fed with kidney bean induced mucosal atrophy microscopically causing atrophy and dissection of the intestinal villus in association with lengthen crypts with cells in increased mitotic activity in compared to than normal tissues.

In compared to controls, kidney bean intake significantly decreased the goblet cells in secrete gel-forming mucins, the major components of mucus but increased in the crypt region, a gland found in the intestinal epithelium lining of the small intestine and large intestine.

Dr. Kik MJ, the lead author of the study said, " feeding Phaseolus vulgaris beans reduced the digestive and absorptive capacity of the mucosa, resulting in weight loss and diarrhea in affected pigs".

In randomized study with mice fed to chow, elemental diet, elemental diet plus concanavalin-A and elemental diet plus phytohaemagglutinin groups, group fed phytohaemagglutinin showed a strong effect of chemical compound lectin in inducing cell proliferation in the small intestine and crypt fission of the middle and distal small intestine in compared to other groups.

The study also showed that phytohaemagglutinin with high amount of lectin also induced intestinal atrophy by affecting the gastric function and mobility through increased secretion of hormone in regulated gastric acid (HCl). In fact, the effects of lectins cause significant gastric trophy on the small intestine and colon may vary between different sites in the gastrointestinal tract.

In support to the above analysis, the Christian-Albrechts-Universität study
with 30 day old male rats pairfed for 10 days with lactalbumin as a control diet or lactalbumin plus PHA or purified soybean trypsin inhibitor (STI) as a positive control (42 mg/rat/day) with or without 20 micrograms of the cholecystokinin A (CCK-A) antagonist MK 329, also found that oral administration of phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) in rats dose dependently induces growth of the small intestine through significantly increased CCK plasma levels from 0.75 to 6.67 (SEM 2.23) compared with 2.3 (0.35) pM in the control group.

The result of phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) intake in exhibit the intestine atrophy may be attributed to the lectin levels in increased production of hormone cholecystokinin in stimulated additional release of bile into the intestine.

Taking together, intake of kidney bean should be taken with care with patients with digestive problems as level of lectin may induce intestinal atrophy.

In compared to herbal medicine; food therapy even takes longer than six months to ease symptoms, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.
Kidney bean may process a health benefit effect as an antioxidant functional food in reduced consequences of free radicals and foreign microbial invasion, causes of diseases.

Kidney bean is popular because of its kidney shape, strong flavor and color of reddish brown in nature, It is often an excellent dietary selection with no cholesterol, but a good source of protein and minerals.

According to the joint study lead by Nanchang University, kidney bean exhibited a strong antioxidant activities through the levels of total phenolics and flavonoids with respective values in compared to 0.25-3.79 mg gallic acid  and 0.19-7.05 mg rutin found in analyzed chemical compounds assay.

In ultra-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector (UPLC-DAD), kidney bean processed the antioxidant activity (AA) ranged from 1.568 ± 0.041 to 66.572 ± 3.197 mg and radicals inhibited by 50% (EC50)concentration.

The extracts of kidney also found to have a capability in inhibiting the proliferation of the human epithelial colorectal adenocarcinoma (Caco-2) cells, human breast cancer cells MCF-7, and A549 NSCLC cell line through its antioxidant effects.

Dr. Ombra MN, the lead author said, "Cultivars differed in composition and concentration of polyphenols including anthocyanins; cooking affected the antioxidant activity only marginally."

Further to the study to compare the antioxidant activity of two solvents, aqueous (70%) acetone and water, and the extracts in relation to their phenolic contents, researchers found that queous acetone (70%) extracted containing more than twice of phenolics from hulls exhibited significantly higher antioxidant and stronger inhibitory effect on both cyclooxygenases, COX-1 and COX-2, (in expression of inflammation and inflammation in gastrointestinal tract), than water in regulated inflammation.

Dr. Oomah BD the lead author in the compared study said, "antioxidant activity that were significantly affected by cultivar and extracting solvent".

Taking together, kidney beans exhibited  a strong antioxidant effect through its procession of various phytochemical compounds, such as total phenolics and flavonoids, in regulated inflammation caused by free radicals and microbial invasion.

If you expect that food and herbal medicine will ease the symptoms of your illness immediately after few day of treatment, you will be disappointed. Symptoms of the diseases can only be eased gradually, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of the disease.

Intake of cooked Dried red kidney beans regularly may reduce risk and delay progression risk of Leukemia, a renowned institute study proposed.

Kidney bean is popular food, with  kidney shape, strong flavor and color in reddish brown in nature, used often as an excellent dietary selection because of enormous health benefits with a good source of protein and minerals.

Leukemia is condition of abnormal increase of white blood cells produced by the bone marrow and/or the lymphatic system. Depending to the malignant granulocytes or lymphocytes, leukemia is classified into myelogenous or lymphoblastic leukemia.

Chemical compound purified from dried kidney beans, namely, 7.3-kDa antifungal peptide, used mainly for treatment of fungal overgrowth, showed to suppress the spread of leukemia L1210 cells with an half concentration of 5.2±0.4 µM and 7.6±0.6 µM, according to the China Agricultural University.

Dr. Ma DZ, the lead researcher said, "(the antifungal peptide isolated from dried Nepalese large red beans) exerted an antiproliferative action on L1210 leukemia cells with an an half concentration of high doses at 15 and 60 microM, respectively".

Other chemical compound, L-asparaginaseenzyme, isolated from Phaseolus vulgaris seeds also enhanced anti-proliferative effect on ALL cells according to the WST-8 cell viability assay kit.

Furthermore, treatment of L-asparaginaseenzyme also involved significant in induced early apoptosis in acute Lymphoblastic leukemia in test subjects jn vivo.

According to the joint study lead by the King Abdulaziz University, the efficacy of novel L-asparaginaseenzyme, isolated from Phaseolus vulgaris seeds (P-Asp) in mice study showed that  mice treated with P-Asp had less distinct allergenic responses by immune system in expression of higher risk of carcinogens and reduced treatment effects.

There is no doubt that kidney beans may be a potential health benefit in targeting the risk of  Leukemia in early stage and prevent the progression of the cancer through anti-proliferative and induced tumors cell death.

Food Therapy: Black bean, the Functional Food In Reduced Risk and Treatment of Osteocarcinoma

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 stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Intake of black bean regular may reduce risk and delay progression and treatment of osteocarcinoma, an invasive form of bone cancer.

Osteocarcinoma is a condition of bone cancer caused by irregular cell growth in bone, affecting mostly adolescents and young adults..

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

According to the The Chinese University of Hong Kong, hemagglutinin isolated from an edible legume, namely black bean, showed an anti proliferative activity against tumor cell lines MG-63 and HepG2 but not the normal cell line.

Malignant osteocarcinoma cell treated with the phytochemical also exerted a significant effect in shrinking of tumor cells as well as inducing apoptosis.

The study also stated that hemagglutinin also induced cell death through interfering the first stage of tumor cell division in expression of protein, RNA, and DNA and inducing mitochondrial membrane depolarization in controlling plasma membrane of a muscle or nerve cell

Furthermore, the study also suggested that the efficacy of hemagglutinin in causing cell death may be attributed to the function of protein in increased regulation of pro inflammatory expressions.

Dr. Dan X, the lead author said, " a novel hemagglutinin from an edible legume (showed) a growth-inhibitory effect on osteocarcinoma and liver cancer cells" and " The hemagglutinating activity of this hemagglutinin was demonstrated to be ion dependent and stable over a wide range of temperature and pH values".

The findings suggested that black bean may be considered as functional food in improved bone health as well as reducing risk and treatment of  osteocarcinoma, but further studies are necessary to confirm it's potency.

Food Therapy: Black Bean the Best on Ameliorated Oxidative Stress in Chronic Diseases

By Kyle J. Norton


People who turn to alternative medicine for treatment of diseases 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 stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Black bean may be used as function food to counter the over expression of free radicals through improved antioxidant activity, a university study postulated.

Oxidative Stress is the imbalance between free radical and antioxidant expression.
Black bean, a small roughly ovoid legumes with glossy black shells, genus Phaseolus, belongings to the family Fabaceae can be 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.

According to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, the use of common bean peptides may contribute to reduced risk of complications associated to chronic diseases, including oxidative stress.

Proteins and synthesized pure peptides from Mexican black and Brazilian Carioca bean, all showed a significantly rate in reduced oxidative stress through over expression of antioxidant activity.

In a randomized, controlled, crossover trial, 12 adults with metabolic syndrome (MetS) consumed one of three meals (black bean (BB), fiber matched (FM), and antioxidant capacity matched (AM)) on three occasions, then blood of participants is collection before (fasting) and five hours postprandially, Oxidized LDL (oxLDL) showed a trend of declining observed after the Back Bean and antioxidant capacity matched meals at five hours compared to the FM group.

Dr. Reverri EJ, the lead author said" black beans with a typical Western-style meal attenuates postprandial insulin and moderately enhances postprandial antioxidant endpoints in adults with MetS, which could only be partly explained by fiber content and properties of antioxidant capacity".

In the compared black bean peel extract (BBPE), pomegranate peel extract (PPE) and a combination of the two (PPE + BBPE), on streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice study conducted by the Xuzhou Medical College, after 4 weeks of injection, researchers found that PPE, BBPE or PPE + BBPE, DM mice showed in some different degrees, a decrease in blood glucose, increases in insulin secretion and the pancreas weight index, and an increase in antioxidative activity.

The result indicated that mice treated with black bean or combination of black bean showed a significant in reduced levels of oxidative stress through enhanced antioxidant activities.

Taking together,  black bean may have a potential used as therapeutic whole food therapy for treatment in reduced oxidative stress in chronic illness.
