Herbal Therapy: Green Tea Significantly Improved Glucose Metabolism in Prediabetics

Kyle J. Norton 

Green tea may have a therapeutic and positive effect in improved glucose metabolism, some scientists suggested.

Green tea is a precious drink processed numbers of health benefit and 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.

Glucose metabolism is an action of the body to convert glucose intake to energy to nourish the body tissues and organs through oxidized to carbon dioxide and water.

Long term abnormal glucose metabolism is considered as a leading cause of diabetes and diabetic complications.

Green tea extract, in the evaluation of the on carbohydrate metabolic key enzymes in control and streptozotocin high fat diet -induced diabetic rats in 30 days, demonstrated a significant activity in ameliorated the over expression of plasma glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and increase in the levels of insulin and hemoglobin.

Further analysis also found that the application exerted a profound effect in restore, in some extends, the function of altered activities of the key enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, such as hexokinase, pyruvate kinase, lactate dehydrogenase in both diabetic and control groups.

In diabetic rats group, green tea extract strongly averted the abnormal expression of glycogen phosphorylase in liver to near normal levels.

Additionally, diabetic group after administration of green tea extract exhibited antihyperglycemic potential, obsevered through improved muscle and hepatic glycogen content.

The information findings showed green tea extract have a directed implication in attenuated abnormal glucose metabolism in compared to the effectiveness of conventional medicine metformin, a standard oral hypoglycemic drug.

Moreover, in the study to confirm the epidemiological study suggestion of improvement in glucose metabolism in diabetic mice and healthy humans upon green tea consumption, researchers found that
injection green tea in diabetic mice and streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice after 2-6 h expresses lower levels of glucose with no alternation of serum insulin level, at dose of 300 mg/kg in compared to normal control mice.

In protein differentiation, green tea extract administration decreased the serum protein level which has been associated to glucose production, minimized the increase of blood glucose levels through stmulating additional small amounts of insulin in the diabetes.  These results addressed another indication of green tea function in exerted direct influence in modulation of glucose metabolism in the tested subject.

Interestingly, in the investigation of green tea effect in glucose uptake inhibitory activity in Caco-2 cells, researchers indicated that green tea at temperature of 60 degree in Celsius significantly improved capacity of antioxidant in inhibition of glucose uptake through regulation of cell glucose metabolism.

Incredibly, temperature over 60 degree Celsius, green tea application did not increased or showed a up ward trend in the inhibitory potential, the Huazhong Agricultural University suggested.

Taken together, green tea with abundant bioactive phytochemicals may be considered as a function food in improved glucose metabolism in reduced risk of diabetes onset. People in high risk diabetes such as prediabetics may want to add 1 or 2 cups of green tea into their diet for preventive measure.

Alternative Therapy: Yoga as an Integrated form of Exercise in Reduced Symptoms and Treatment of Urinary Incontinence

Kyle J. Norton

Yoga as an integrated form of treatment may be used to improve symptoms and treatment of urinary incontinence, some scientists suggested.

Urinary Incontinence, a medical, psychological, social, economic, and hygienic problem, characterized by loss of the bladder control causing mild or severe form of involuntary leakage of urine.

Yoga, the ancient practical technique practice for harmonized external and internal body well beings, through breath control, meditation, bodily movement and gesture..... has been best known for people in Western world and some parts in Asia due to health benefits reported by various respectable institutes' research and supported by health advocates.

According to the pilot randomized trial of ambulatory women aged 40 years and older with stress, urgency, or mixed-type incontinence, randomized assigned o a 6-week yoga therapy program (n = 10) consisting of twice weekly group classes and once weekly home practice or a wait-list control group (n = 9), after 6 weeks of program
* Women participated in yoga class demonstrated an  incontinence frequency decreased by 70%  in compared to 13% in the control group
* Furthermore, yoga group also expressed a significant decrease in stress incontinence frequency
of 71% in compared to 25% increase in controls
* There was no significant differences in reduction in urgency incontinence

Dr. Huang AJ, the led author after adjusting to other co founders said, "Findings provide preliminary evidence to support the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of a group-based yoga therapy intervention to improve urinary incontinence in women"

Truly, yoga although can not reverse the biological change of hormone due to aging, as aging progress, production of estrogen levels decrease slowly in the peri (before) and post (after) menopausal stage of life may have a profound effect in exhibited stress urinary incontinence stress caused by loss of tissue strength, its mindfulness and slow breathing induced calming effect in the central nervous may result in stimulated production of serum relaxin which has been correlated inversely to urgency incontinence.

Furthermore, yoga meditation and slow breathing also reconnected and re-balanced the mind and body, by bringing back the presence and dealing them the natural and positive ways such as practicing yoga postures intervention, thus, stimulating the CNS in signalling the circulatory system in moving more bloods to the abdomen in strengthen and relax the pelvic floor muscles, sphincter muscles and function of the bladder muscle in relaxation and squeeze, thus attenuating all types of urinary incontinence.

These actions of supplying more bloods to the abdomen and strengthening and calming the pelvic   muscles and promoting function of the bladder can also be substantially enhanced by yoga postures.

Moreover, yoga intervention also calmed the central nervous system in reduced response to stress, thus normalizing the production of anti inflammatory hormone such as cortisol in reduced widespread inflammation in initiated urinary incontinence.

Amazingly, according the evaluation of 4 months of yoga practice on the quality of life (QOL) and estradiol levels of two postmenopausal women, researchers found that menopausal yoga participant not only improved the neuroendocrine system through increasing estrogen, but also enhanced QOL,

These "abnormal estrogen-level increase" suggested that by practicing yoga, menopausal women may have a significant benefit in ameliorated risk of stress incontinence frequency.

The differentiation of above were supported by the study of a single group pre-/post-test design of patients of 55 women participated in the pelvic muscle exercise and yoga program, 34 of recruited from a community health center in Seoul, Korea completed the 8 week, twice weekly intervention program. 

According to the result from questionnaire survey returned researcher indicated that

* The intervention showed a strong improvement in attitude toward pelvic muscle exercise, pelvic muscle strength, and incontinence factor.
* Daily yoga and pelvic muscle exercise was positively correlated with improved incontinence factor
* The intervention also improved health related quality of life to urinary tract symptoms.

 Even with the promising results but due to small sample size of the study, Dr, Kim GS, the led researchers said, "(Although, the)combined pelvic muscle exercise and yoga program was effective for improving overall urinary incontinence in community health center attendees in Korea. Further study is needed with a control group, different populations, and a longer intervention period".

More precisely, in the investigated yoga as a biobehavioral approach to reduce symptom distress in women with urge urinary incontinence, researchers Loyola University Chicago insisted that
yoga as a mind-body therapy, may help to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms of urge urinary incontinence.

Taking altogether, strong evidences finding suggested that yoga may be considered as intervention exercise combined with standard therapy in ameliorated symptoms and treatment of urine incontinence.

Food Therapy: Carrots In Attenuated Risk, Progression and Treatment of Lung Cancer

Kyle J. Norton

Carrots may have a profound and positive effect in reduced risk, progression and treatment of lung cancer, some scientists suggested.

Lung cancer is a condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and uncontrollably in lung tissue. At the later stage, the cancerous cells may infect other healthy tissue and organ a distance away from the original site.

Carrot, a root vegetable with orange color is  a sub spices of Daucus carota, belongings to the family Apiaceae, native to Asian and Europe.

In the evaluation of a total of 417 lung cancer cases and 849 controls of a hospital-based case control with 'cases' of lung cancer patients diagnosed during the period 1979/80 at seven hospitals in the Lombardy region by interviewed on their life-long tobacco usage and their current intake of four food items rich in retinol or carotene, researcher found that risk of lung cancer increased 3-4 fold in current smokers who did not consume carrots in compared compared with those who ate them more than once a week.

The odd ratio of carrot consumption reduced significantly and linearly to risk of lung cancer.
However, among ex-smokers or non-smokers, intake of carrot did not offer a decrease of lung cancer risk.

Dr. Pisani P the lead author, after taking into account of other cofounder such as vegetables said, "The effect of carrots is independent of histological type of lung cancer while the effect of green vegetables was confined to epidermoid carcinomas".

Further analysis of the antiproliferative effect of retinoic acid amide found abundantly in carrot suggested that retinoic acid amide at dose of 30 μM expressed a significant activity in inhibition of lung cancer cell lines and clonogenic growth.

Application of  retinoic acid amide also induced cancer cell apoptosis in the G2/M-phase cell cycle arrest through inhibition of JAK2 in cancer cell line in signaling cell functions by transmitting messages between cells in initiated growth and proliferation; inhibited STAT3, and STAT5 in cancer cell in expression of inflammatory cytokine to fuel the cancer development and expansion and level of p21WAF1, a key mediator of p53-dependent in cell cycle arrest with function as a tumor suppressor in cancer

At the mean time, application of retinoic acid amide stimulated the decreased cyclin A, cyclin B1 in induction of cell mitosis, and Bcl-XL in expression of anti-apoptotic activity in lung cancer cell line by preventing the release of mitochondrial contents such as cytochrome c.

Additionally, researchers also discovered that the compound injection also increases the expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9 in tumors with function of responsible for executing cell death following cytochrome c release.

In compared to those of conventional medicine, Dr. Li HX, the lead author siad, "retinoic acid amide exhibits promising antiproliferative effects against human lung cancer cells in vitro and in vivo and enhances the antiproliferative effect of methotrexate".

The above differentiation were supported by the reviewing the 16 studies selected for elevation between lung cancer and vitamin A in humans, conducted by Dr. Palgi A.

According to the study, high intake of dietary vitamin A has a protective effect against the development of squamous and small cell carcinoma of the lung in smokers and people who consumed carrot daily have a lower risk of lung cancer in compared to non consumers.

However, due to limitation of several factors, researcher postulated, "(A sample size study with) more complete vitamin A indices, examination of the histological type of lung cancer, a large enough pool of both male and female patients for statistical analysis, and proper adjustment for the effects of age, sex, smoking, and socioeconomic status (are necessary for the viability".

The result findings strongly suggested that long term intake of carrot in moderate amounts may have a substantial implication in prevention and treatment of lung cancer. But Intake of carrot supplement should be taken with care to prevent acute liver toxicity.

Herbal Therapy: Herbal Anise and Its Bioactive Anethole in Attenuated Risk, Progression and Treatment of Osteoporosis

Kyle J. Norton

Anise may have a potential and substantial effect in reduced risk and progression and treatment of osteoporopsis, some scientists suggested.

Anise is a flowering plant ofthe species of Pimpinella anisum, genus Pimpinella, belongings to the family Apiaceae native to to Egypt and the Mediterranean region, used in traditional herbal medicine as fragrance in soaps, oils, and mouth fresheners and stomachic, anti-septic, anti-spasmodic, ....

Chemical comstituents
Anethole, D-pinene, I-phellandrene, Alpha-terpineol, Safrol, Methyl chavicol, Resin, Shikimic acid, etc.

In the investigation of the herbal selective estrogen receptor modulators or SERMs effect in risk of osteoporosis, in comparison of plant aqueous extracts derived from Greek flora (Sideritis euboea, Sideritis clandestina, Marticaria chamomilla, and Pimpinella anisum), researchers at the Medical School, University of Athens found that all extracts exert profound activities in stimulated the differentiation and mineralization of osteoblastic cell culture.

Further analysis, also discovered that all plant extracts at concentration range 10-100 microg/mL, including Anise induced  osteoblastic cell differentiation in formation of bone and improved bone density.

These result indicated that Anise and other plant extracts may comprise a substantial anti estrogenic effect in reduced risk of osteoporosis in dose dependent manner.

Also, in the evaluation of (E)-anethole, major bioactive compound isolated from Anise  protective effect on H2O2-induced alterations in collagen metabolism, researchers showed that application of anethole of 0.5 µM  for 1 h completely prevent the alternation of cells treated with 300 µM H2O2 in displayed a decrease in collagen biosynthesis of 54 %, correlated with alterations of type I collagen mRNA expression in the osteoblasts in initiated higher bone turn over.

Additionally differentiation also revealed that Anise anethole administration at 10 µM, exerts most efficient suppression in ameliorated expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 caused by H2O2 induced alterations in collagen metabolism, in contributed to the 8 % decrease in the amount of collagen secreted into the medium.

The result suggested that application of H2O2 not only directly activates MMPs, but also causes a decreased in the expression of their inhibitors, such as TIMP2, a metastasis suppressor in initiated alterations of collagen metabolism in bone.

In Other words, anethole isolated from Anise attenuated ROS causes an increased activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in degraded collagen in fibroblasts.
Some researchers suggested, "the loss of MMP-9 improved the connectivity density of the trabeculae, whereas the loss of MMP-2 reduced this parameter. Similar differential effects in architecture were observed in the L5 vertebra, but bone volume fraction was lower for both MMP-2 and MMP-9 (in mice study) "

Taken together, Anise and its bioactive anethole may be considered as a functional herb for reduced risk and treatment of osteoporosis caused by collagen loss in skin and bone. However, intake of Anise supplement should be taken with extreme care in prevented toxicity.

Food Therapy: Fennel In Ameliorated Risk, Progression and Treatment of Breast Cancer

Kyle J. Norton

Fennel may have a potential and therapeutic effect in reduced risk and treatment of breast cancer, some scientists suggested.

Breast cancer is a medical condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and uncontrollably in the breast tissue. At the later stage, cancerous cells may travel  a distance away to infect other healthy tissue and organs.

Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a plant species of genus, belongings to Apiaceae (Umbelliferae), native to the Mediterranean, used in traditional and herbal medicine as warming, carminative, antispasmodic, antidepressant agent and to stimulate the appetite, ease indigestion, soothe coughing, reduce intestinal spasms, to regulate the menstrual cycle and relieve PMS,...

In the evaluation of the essential oil extracted from fennel activity in human breast cancer cell line (MDA-Mb), researchers found that application of fennel extract exerted a significant effect in inhibition of the expression of cancer cell line at dose of lower than f lower than 10 μg/mL with IC50.

According to the University of Malaya in investigation of  the DNA protecting activity and inhibition of nicotine-induced cancer cell migration of 9 spices, fennel exerted a potential effect in protection of the DNA integrity and inhibition of nicotine-induced cancer cell migration against Murine fibroblasts (3T3-L1) and human breast cancer (MCF-7) cells pre-treated with spice extracts and then exposed to H₂O₂ and nicotine.

Additional analysis suggested that the result of inhibition was attributed to fennel antioxidants of phenols and flavonoids in ameliorated H2O2 in initiated chain activity in induction of cytotoxicity in altered DNA of the experiment cell line.

Some researchers suggested that overproduction of hydrogen peroxide may serve as a prodrug in the presence of transition metal ions, in induced production of highly reactive hydroxyl radicals to initiated DNA damage in precipitated apoptosis.

In other words, application of highly oxidative hydrogen peroxide in breast caner cell line may cause a significant cytotoxic effect in the cancer cell death.

These results demonstrated the correlation of increase of apoptosis with the rise in generation of reactive oxygen species in cancer cells.

Due to this potential activity, some researchers suggested that hydrogen peroxide overproduced in tumor cells can serve as a prodrug for the treatment of cancer.

On the other hand, application of H2O2 in healthy cell may induce DNA damage in initiation of cancer cell development.

Furthermore, fennel scored a statistically significant DNA protecting activity in compared to other spices, such as at ginger with 50 μg/ml in reduced 68% of DNA damage in 3T3-L1 cells.

However, Fennel exerted a lesser effect in inhibited cancer MCF-7 cells with nicotine induced cell migration in compared to other spices such as pepper, long pepper and ginger.

The above differentiation were supported by the joint study lead by the Avicenna Tajik State Medical University, in evaluation of the antioxidant effect of essential oil of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) against MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma).

According to the result from Gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric analysis, fennel displayed a moderated antioxidant in precipitated cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 (human breast adenocarcinoma) with IC50 values between 30-210 mg L-1 in compared to cytotoxic reference compounds.

In fact, the efficacy of fennel essential oil in inhibited the breast caner proliferation and migration was attributed to the presence of lipophilic secondary metabolites and anise aldehyde, which have a potential in elevated the interference with molecular targets in cells by fennel antioxidant compounds such as anethole.  

Taken together, fennel and its bioactive compound may be considered as a function foods in reduced risk, progression and treatment of breast cancer. However, intake of fennel supplement should be taken with extreme care in prevented liver acute toxicity.

In the study to verify the effect of carrots in risk of prostate cancer by reviewing publication of literature in August 2013 of PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, the Cochrane register, and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases, and the references of the retrieved articles, researchers at the Zhejiang University found that intake of carrot demonstrated a significantly reduced risk of prostate cancer with the odd ratio of .82 in compared to non serving group.

Risk of prostate cancer was decreased by 5% and 6% in intake of a weekly portion of 10 g of carrot increment without precipitating adverse effect.

Dr. Xu X, the lead author suggested that intake of carrot frequently with limit volume may have a profound effect in reduced prostate cancer risk.

Further analysis of the potential effect of lycopene extract found abundantly in tomato and carrot in decreased risk of onset and treatment of prostate cancer indicated that lycopene inhibited prostate cancer proliferation through modulated the expression of PI3K/Akt pathway prostate cancer cell lines  in regulating cancerous cellular functions including metabolism, growth, proliferation.

Dysfunction of the PI3K/Akt pathway was associated to a number of human diseases including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and neurological diseases.

Moreover, application of lycopene also displayed a strong effect in inhibited the proliferation of androgen-dependent prostateLNCaP cancer cells through the activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) with function to act as a tumor suppressor in prostate cells due to it activity in induction of  agonist ligands in inhibited growth of prostate cancer cells.

Additionally, the phytochemical also expressed a significant activity in exhibited the liver X receptor alpha (LXRα) in reduce proliferation of human oral cancer cells by promoting cell cycle arrest through increased expression of the cyclindependent kinase inhibitor p27, a tumor suppressor and promoted function of extracellular ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1) pathway in inhibited tumor growth through modulation of macrophage function within the tumor, and in established a link between cholesterol homeostasis and cancer.

Application of lycopene (10 μM) in the presence of a specific antagonist of PPARγ (GW9662) or LXRα (GGPP) exerted a huge effect in reduced liver X receptor α knockdown in induction of resistance against LXRα  in promoted the proliferation of DU145 cells.

Interestingly, lycopene in combination with the LXRα agonist T0901317, a potent chemical compound used in assays, exhibited anti prostate cell proliferative activity through interaction with protein expression of PPARγ, LXRα and ABCA1 in initiated cancer cell apoptosis.

In conclusion, Dr. Yang CM, the lead authors said, "These results demonstrate that lycopene can inhibit DU145 cell proliferation via PPARγ-LXRα-ABCA1 pathway and that lycopene and T0901317 exhibit synergistic effects".

The result findings strongly suggested that long term intake of carrot in moderate amounts may have substantial implication in prevention and treatment of prostate cancer. But Intake of carrot supplement should be taken with care to prevent acute liver toxicity.
