Food Therapy: Dried Peas and Beans In Reduced Risk and Treatment of Colon Cancer

Kyle J. Norton

Dietary factors can influence cancers formation and growth, intake of dried peas may have a potential effect in reduced risk of colon cancer, a recent study suggested

Dried pea is a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family, genus Pisum belongings to the family Fabaceae with healthy source of proteins, fibers, vitamins and minerals.

Colon cancer is a condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and irregularly in the tissues of colon.

In a case-control designed study of 186 men and women with a mean of 58 years of age revealed that consumption of legumes such as dried beans, split peas, or lentils daily and regularly was inversely associated with reduced risk of colon cancer, after adjusting all potential confounding variables.

The relative risk odd ratio of colon cancer occurrence in these subjects was ameliorated substantially in compared to control.

Researchers also indicated that risk colon cancer decrease may be attributed to legumes dietary fiber together with enormous presences of phytochemical compounds.

Dr. Agurs-Collins T, the led author said, "Nurses working with African-Americans should encourage consumption of these foods to decrease this risk".

Other, in the study of the same subject suggested that by modifying diet and lifestyle habits, adenomatous polyps and 25-35% of colon adenoma risk could be avoidable. As consumption of legumes at least 3 times/wk reduced the risk of colon cancer by 33% after adjusting for meat intake.

Furthermore, the research result also postulated that high frequency of consumption of cooked green vegetables, dried fruit, legumes, and brown rice was associated with a decreased risk of colorectal polyps.

Interestingly, in the investigated effect of consumption of standard diets supplemented with freeze-dried vegetables (peas, spinach, sprouts and broccoli) and carotenoids (all-trans beta-carotene and palm oil carotenoid extract) on surrogate end-point markers for colorectal cancer in an azoxymethane-induced rat model, researchers at the Unilever Research Vlaardingen, illustrated that
peas, spinach, sprouts and a mix of all vegetables diet expressed a significantly reduced the number of foci with >2 aberrant crypts/focus by 37, 26, 23 and 26%, particularly in the pea and spinach intervention groups.

After adjusting to other risk factors, researchers filed the following reports
1. Peas, spinach, sprouts and a mix of all vegetables diet was beneficial effects in reduced risk of colorectal carcinogenesis
2. Consumption of several types of vegetables inhibits early onset of colorectal carcinogenesis
3. and suggest that the vegetable-induced effect is more pronounced in advanced lesions.

Taking altogether,  dried peas may be used as therapeutic ingredients in reduced risk and treatment of colon cancer and diseases related to colon abnormalities.

Food Therapy: Coffee In Reduced risk of Acute Pancreatitis

By Kyle J. Norton


Intake of coffee and coffee caffeine daily and regularly may have a potential positively in reduced risk and treatment of pancreatitis, a Swede study suggested.

Coffee, 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.

Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas. In most cases, the disease will go away without notice but  in serve cases, it may cause some complications.

In the examine data obtained from two prospective cohorts, the Cohort of Swedish Men and the Swedish Mammography Cohort, including 76 731 men and women (born 1914-1952) with assessment at baseline with a FFQ, and followed up between 1998 and 2012 via linkage to national health registries, researchers filed the following important results
1.During 1 035 881 person-years of total follow-up, there were 383 cases (246 in men and 137 in women) of incident non-gallstone-related acute pancreatitis out of 76 731 particioants.
2. Coffee intake regardless amounts was not associated to risk of non-gallstone-related acute pancreatitis.

The findings demonstrated only non risk of pancreatitis prevalence in coffee consumption without giving further detail of other aspects.

Further discussion of coffee intake in risk of pancreatitis, researchers at the joint study led by the University of Southern California described that dietary form an essential role in prevent or exhibition of pancreatitis. but coffee was one the beverage with protective effect in ameliorated risk of acute pancreatitis,

In the Multiethnic Cohort (age at baseline, 45-75 y) study with cases of pancreatitis identified using hospitalization claim files from 1993 through 2012 and categorized as having gallstone-related acute pancreatitis (AP) (n = 1210), AP not related to gallstones (n = 1222), or recurrent AP or suspected chronic pancreatitis (n = 378), out of many dietary products used in the study, coffee consumption scored a outstanding effect in reduced incidence of acute pancreatitis.

Further to support the efficacy of coffee in attenuated risk of AP, researchers at the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center, filed the below report after study of 129,000 prepaid health plan members with supplied data about demographics and habits in 1978-85 and 439 persons in this group subsequently hospitalized for pancreatitis,
1. Coffee intake showed a moderated effect in reduced risk of acute pancreatitis,
2. The relative risk of per cup per day coffee intake was 0.85 in compared to baseline
3. Risk of AP reduced linearly for numbers of cup intake daily
4. In compared to female with the additional factors, risk of AP was higher in male participants group.

Taking together, there is no doubt that coffee consumption may have a profound effect in reduced risk of acute pancreatitis probably through phytochemicals in coffee antioxidant and anti inflammatory activities. But further study are needed to confirm this findings.

Food Therapy: Dried peas Water Soluble Fibers in Attenuated Risk of Hypercholesterolemia

Kyle J. Norton


Water soluble fibers found in dried peas may have potential effects in reduced risk of hypercholesterolemia, a joint universities study suggested.


Dried pea is a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family, genus Pisum belongings to the family Fabaceae with healthy source of proteins, fibers, vitamins and minerals.

Hypercholesterolemia is a condition characterized by abnormal high of total cholesterol in the blood stream.

According to study led by the University of California, dietary soluble fibers intake found in dried peas and other sources has been associated with health benefits in reduced lipid levels and other ailments.

In the review studies of literature published and related to the hypocholesterolemic effects of dietary soluble fibers and fiber-rich foods, researchers showed that
1. Daily consumption of water-soluble, viscous-forming fibers can reduce total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels by about 5-10 %;
2. Observation of effect of dietary water soluble also expressed some minimal changes high-density lipoprotein cholesterol or triglyceride levels.
3. Types of soluble fiber and phytochemicals presented in the food also exerted different effects in cholesterol-lowering activities with medium to high molecular weight fibers were more effective.

Furthermore, in the 68 hyperlipidemic adults consumed a test (high-fiber) and a control low-fat (25% of energy), low-cholesterol (<150 mg/d) diet for 1 mo each, randomized crossover study with high-fiber diet included 4 servings/d of foods containing beta-glucan or psyllium that delivered 8 g/d more soluble fiber than in the control diet, researchers showed that high fibers dietary group expressed a reduced total cholestero, total:HDL cholesterol, LDL:HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B:A-I  in compared to control.

Also in comparison of both diets, there were no significant differences in palatability or gastrointestinal symptoms.

Dr. Jenkins DJ, the led author said, "The reduction in serum lipid risk factors for cardiovascular disease supports the FDA's approval of a health claim for a dietary fiber intake of 4 servings/d. Although relatively small in terms of patient treatment, the reduction in cardiovascular disease risk is likely to be significant on a population basis".

Finally, according to the University of Naples, the study of the effect of diet in lipid and glucose levels of diabetics indicated the following and interesting results

1. Dietary fiber has the ability to retard food digestion and nutrient absorption and certainly has an important influence on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism
2. Dietary also has a profound effect in influence of the accessibility of nutrients by digestive enzymes, thus delaying digestion and absorption.
Therefore,
3. the consumption of legumes, vegetables, and fruits--rich in water-soluble fiber--should be particularly encouraged i healthy and diabetics.

Dr. Riccardi G, the led author concluded " a diet low in cholesterol and saturated fat should be recommended to all diabetic patients to prevent cardiovascular disease. A balanced increase in consumption of fiber-rich foods and unsaturated fat is the most rational way to replace foods rich in saturated fat and cholesterol in the diabetic diet".

The collect information, dries peas with abundant water fibers may be considered as a functional food in reduced risk of hypercholesterolemia, one of major risk factor of cardiovascular disease.

Food Therapy: Coffee as Antioxidants

By Kyle J. Norton

Coffee may be used as functional food in improved antioxidant status in reduced risk of oxidative stress, irregular cells growth and reactive oxygen species causes of various types of disease, a joint study by renowned university study suggested.

Antioxidant is types of chemical compound inhibited the free radicals to protect the body against oxidative damage.
Coffee, 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 University of British Columbia, Coffee expressed numerous capacity in free radical scavenger in balancing hydrogen and electrons, acted as metal ion pro-oxidant chelators and triggered antioxidant gene expression and protected against gastrointestinal oxidative stress......

In vitro, according to cell-free and cell-based assays, coffee intake demonstrated antioxidant capacity through its bioactive constituents. And in cellular levels, coffee components exhibited antioxidant activity to specific genomic events through antioxidant function in both animal and human.

Furthermore, the Antioxidant Capacity of Coffee study suggested that coffee intake showed a potential effect in reduced free radical damage against artery-clogging atherosclerosis and health problems like vision loss, cancer or chronic diseases, through bioactive phytochemicals in expression of antioxidants.

Lower  antioxidant status also displayed a cellular damage especially in people with a low consumption of vegetables...and coffee.

Interestingly, in the evaluated polyphenol content and antioxidant capacity of widely consumed beverages such as chamomile tea, yerba mate, a coffee blend (65% roasted:35% green), and coffee-like substitutes, researchers at the Institute of Food Science found that coffee showed an average polyphenol recovery of 78%. after gastrointestinal digestion,  in vitro.

In compared to Yerba mate, coffee demonstrated a similar phenolic composition, but more stable polyphenols displayment..

Dr.Baeza G, the lead auhtor said, " Regular consumption of the studied beverages provides considerable amounts of antioxidants which are relatively stable after simulated digestion, and thus have the potential to prevent oxidative stress-related disorder".

The finding evidences suggested that coffee may be considered as a functional food in increased antioxidant profile, through bioactive constituents activities against diseases caused by over expression reactive oxygen species(RSO).

Food Therapy: Dried Peas Water Soluble Fibers in Reduced Risk of Cardiovascular Disease

Kyle J. Norton


Dried peas water soluble fibers may be used as functional food in reduced risk of cardiovascular disease, the recent study suggested.

According to the recommendation by FDA, consumption o fdietary fibers, beta-glucan (0.75 g/serving) and psyllium (1.78 g/serving) found in legume and other sources 4 servings/d may have a substantial effect in reduced cardiovascular disease risk.

Dried pea is a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family, genus Pisum belongings to the family Fabaceae with healthy source of proteins, fibers including beta-glucan and psyllium, vitamins and minerals.

In the study of 68 hyperlipidemic adults consumed a test (high-fiber) and a control low-fat (25% of energy), low-cholesterol (<150 mg/d) diet for 1 mo each in a randomized crossover study with high-fiber diet included 4 servings/d of foods containing beta-glucan or psyllium that delivered 8 g/d more soluble fiber than did similar with unsupplemented foods in the control diet, researchers after adjusting to other risk factors showed that risk of cardiovascular disease reduced significantly through lower all aspects of bad cholesterol and increased levels of HDL cholesterol.

Dr. Jenkins DJ, the led author said, "Although relatively small in terms of patient treatment, the reduction in cardiovascular disease risk is likely to be significant on a population basis".

Interestingly, in the review of Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) in The Cochrane Library, Ovid MEDLINE (1946 to January 2015), Ovid EMBASE (1947 to January 2015) and Science Citation Index Expanded (1970 to January 2015) as well as two clinical trial registers in January 2015, 23 RCTs (1513 participants randomised to examine the effect of dietary water fibre in cholesterol in induced CVD risk
1. There were no motility risk during the caused of study
2. Intake of water soluble fibers showed a significant effect on total cholesterol levels (17 trials (20 comparisons), and LDL cholesterol levels (mean difference -0.14 mmol/L, 95% CI -0.22 to -0.06)
3. Increased water fiber intake showed a small but statistically significant decrease rather than increase in HDL levels
4. There was insignificant effect on triglyceride levels
5 10 trials with 661 participants randomised reported a significant effect of increased fibre consumption on diastolic blood pressure but statistical significance in reduction of systolic blood pressure
6. Dietary water fibers injected demonstrated a mild to moderate gastrointestinal side-effects in compared to the control groups.

Dr. Hartley L, the led author after adjusting to other risk factors suggested. "The pooled analyses for CVD risk factors suggest reductions in total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol with increased fibre intake, and reductions in diastolic blood pressure" and "ll analyses need to be viewed with caution given the risks of bias observed for total cholesteroland the statistical heterogeneity observed for systolic blood pressure".

Taking altogether, there is no doubt that water soluble fibers found in dried peas and other sources may have a intrinsic effect in reduced risk cardiovascular disease in healthy and diabetics population through attenuating hypertension and hypercholesterolemia.

Food Therapy: Maternal Coffee Caffeine intake in Risk of Infant Spina Bifida

By Kyle J. Norton


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.

Epidemiological studies do not agreed that coffee and coffee caffeine are associated to risk of birth defect of spina bifida.

Spina bifida is a congenitally physical abnormality characterized by incomplete closing of the backbone membranes around the spinal cord.

Coffee, second to green tea, is a popular and beverage all over the world, particular in the West,  made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

According to the Slone Epidemiology Center at Boston University, in the study of caffeine consumption by women during the first month of pregnancy. Between 1988-2012, caffeine intake (<1, 1, and ≥2 cups/day) were not likely associated with increased risk of Spina bifida.

The researchers also suggested that other factors such as inadequate folic acid, recommended at 400 μg/day in the first month of pregnancy may also affect the outcome of the study assessed by the returned questionnaire of mothers with child Spina bifida.

Other, in the study of 133 case mothers and 273 control women providing information on periconceptional risk factors, using data from a case-control interview study carried out at the G. Gaslini Children's Hospital, Genoa, from 2000 to 2008, researchers found that there are numbers of mechanism involved in the expression of infant Spina bifida. High caffeine intake and lack of folate supplementation at any time of pregnancy may have some risks  in induced SB, but disturbed folate/homocysteine metabolism would be a main factor.

In animal studies, caffeine was considered as a reduced risk factor in exhibitedly significant effect in incidence of Spina bifida.

But in human observation study, caffeine consumption, during the year before pregnancy for 768 mothers of infants with NTDs and 4143 mothers of infants without birth defects between 1997 to 2002, was associated to increased risk of birth defect of SB.

Dr. Schmidt RJ, the lead author said, "Positive associations were observed between spina bifida and total caffeine consumption (OR 1.4; 95% CI: 1.1-1.9)" and "Additional studies should confirm whether women who consume caffeine are at increased risk for pregnancies complicated by NTDs".

The information findings suggested that caffeine intake may associate to some risks in the developed  fetus spina bifida, but the results were only come from observation studies, therefore, a human trial with large number size are necessary to clarify these contradictions.

Food Therapy: Intake Coffee Caffeine >300 mg/day In Increased Risk of Osteoporosis

By Kyle J. Norton


Increased life long intake of coffee caffeine may have a potential effect in reduced bone mineral density in menopause women, a Southern America University opinionated.

Coffee, 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.

Osteoporosis is a condition of thinning of bone and bone tissues as a result of the loss of bone density over a prolong period of time.

A study to investigate whether increased coffee intake expressed a linear effect in risk of increased ageing bone density of  980 postmenopausal women aged 50 to 98 years (mean age, 72.7 years) in community-based population of older women, Rancho Bernardo, Calif.participated between 1988 and 1991, researchers showed that women drinking coffee without adding milk have a strong effect in risk of osteoporosis, but for women drinking at least one cup of milk a day, coffee caffeine intake do not impede bone density.

Dr. Barrett-Connor E, the lead author said, "Lifetime caffeinated coffee intake equivalent to two cups per day is associated with decreased bone density in older women who do not drink milk on a daily basis".

Other, in the measured the bone density of both hips and the total body in 138 healthy, postmenopausal women aged 55-70 y who  never used hormone replacement therapy, returned reports including current and long-time caffeinated beverage, suggested that with the same anthropometric and nutrient intakes, caffeine intake was not associated to osteoporosis regardless numbers of cups drinking per day.

Interestingly, based on brewed beverages chemical analysis, most computer models have over estimated the caffeine intake of prospects by nearly two-thirds.

Base on the finding evidences, Dr. Lloyd T. the lead author said, " the habitual dietary caffeine intake of this cohort of 138 postmenopausal women ranged from 0-1400 mg/d and was not associated with total body or hip bone mineral density measurements".

Furthermore, according to the Creighton University, School of Medicine study of cross-sectional measurements of BMD in 489 elderly women (aged 65-77 y) and from longitudinal measurements made in 96 of these women who were treated with coffee in compared to a placebo for 3 y. showed a nonlinear result of osteoporosis risk increased in women drinking over < or =300 mg/d in compared to low and moderated groups.

The study also specified that, all 3 groups showed some forms of bone density loss, and higher bone density loss is correlated to cups of coffee drinking per day.

Particularly, Dr, Rapuri PB, said, "Intakes of caffeine in amounts >300 mg/d ( approximately 514 g, or 18 oz, brewed coffee) accelerate bone loss at the spine in elderly postmenopausal women".

Taking altogether,  menopause women may have an increased risk of mineral bone density in induction of osteoporosis for drinking  >300 mg/day. Due to conflict results from the above studies, further confirmation with large size and multi centers studies are necessary.
