Healthy Food Cabbage, the Natural Anti-Hyperlipidemia Remedy

By Kyle J. Norton

Hyperlipidemia is a medical condition of abnormally high levels of cholesterol and fat in the bloodstream.

The condition is normally known as high blood cholesterol in the general population.

People with hyperlipidemia are asymptomatic. Over time, the fat collection in the arteries accompanied by calcium or other substances form plague, leading to narrowing arteries and reduced function of the arteries to transport oxygen-rich blood to the parts of the body.

According to the statistics provided by the CDC, in 2015–2016, more than 12% of adults age 20 and 

High blood cholesterol is the most common cause of hyperlipidemia. According to statistics provided by the CDC, more than 12% of adults age 20 and older are living with high blood cholesterol with a total cholesterol higher than 240 mg/dL. and more than 18% had high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or “good”) cholesterol levels less than 40 mg/dL.

In other words, hyperlipidemia has a high prevalent ratio that affects over 100 million Americans and the condition is increasing at an alarming rate due to overweight and obesity.

Believe it or not, only half of the people with high blood cholesterol benefits from taking the lowering blood cholesterol medicine.

Cholesterol is a waxy substance produced by the liver. In a moderate amount, it helps to improve the gastrointestinal tract in food digestion, builds strong cell membranes, produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.

Believe it or not, about half of the U.S. adults (55%, or 43 million) are currently taking medicine associated with lower blood cholesterol.

There are many risk factors that cause the onset of hyperlipidemia, such as people with diabetes, being overweight gain, physical activity, and smoking.

Some researchers suggested the promotion of a high-fat diet over the past decades may be one of the silent cause of hyperlipidemia in the Western world.

Cabbage is a species of Brassica oleracea belongings to the family Brassicaceae (or Cruciferae), native to the Mediterranean region along the seacoast. The veggie has a short stem with a crowded mass of leaves, usually green but in some varieties, it may be red or purplish.

On findings a natural wholefood for the treatment of cardiovascular disease (CVD), researchers examined the effectiveness of microgreens in affecting lipid and cholesterol levels.

The study included C57BL/6NCr mice (n = 60, male, 5 weeks old) induced obesity (DIO) model were randomly assigned to six feeding groups: (1) low-fat diet; (2) high-fat diet; (3) low-fat diet + 1.09% red cabbage microgreens; (4) low-fat diet + 1.66% mature red cabbage; (5) high-fat diet + 1.09% red cabbage microgreens; (6) high-fat diet + 1.66% mature red cabbage for 8 weeks.

According to the results of differentiation
* Microgreen supplementation attenuated high-fat diet-induced weight gain. 

* Furthermore, supplementation with microgreens significantly lowered circulating LDL levels in animals fed the high-fat diet and reduced hepatic cholesterol ester.

* Moreover, the levels of triacylglycerol levels, and expression of inflammatory cytokines in the liver were also inhibited by dietary microgreens.

Based on the findings, researchers suggested that microgreens can modulate weight gain and cholesterol metabolism and may protect against CVD by preventing hyperlipidemia.

Taken altogether, cabbage processes anti-hyperlipidemia, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Common Fig or Fig (Ficus carica) Protects the Kidneys Against Renal Toxicity

By Kyle J. Norton

The kidneys, a pair of bean-shaped organs on either side of your spine are the second detoxed organ after liver by removing wastes or toxins in the blood come from the normal breakdown of active muscle and from the food you eat.

Kidney dysfunction can reduce the body's ability to clean your blood, filter extra water out of your blood, leading to fluid retention and high blood pressure in the early stage.

Chronic kidney disease is a gradual loss of kidney function over time. Chronic kidney failure is the end stage of chronic kidney disease which has been found in high numbers in patients with diabetes, high blood pressure and other disorders.

Unlike many diseases, kidney diseases often have no symptoms until it is in a very advanced stage.

Acute kidney dysfunction or acute kidneys failure is a result of insufficient blood flow to the kidneys such as renal hypertension. These types of kidneys dysfunction can be cured if the causes are found.

Most cases of acute kidney dysfunction may be associated with toxin accumulated in the kidney organs, leading to the condition of nephrotoxicity.

Renal toxicity or nephrotoxicity in most cases is toxicity in the kidneys caused by toxic chemicals and medications.

The most common symptoms of renal toxicity may cause reduced kidney function in eliminating toxins, leading to a reduced amount of urine. swelling of your legs, ankles, and feet from retention of fluids.

In a serious case, the condition can also result in unexplained shortness of breath. excessive drowsiness or fatigue. persistent nausea. confusion. pain or pressure in your chest.

The World Health Organization wrote, "Exposure to mercury – even small amounts – may cause serious health problems, and is a threat to the development of the child in utero and early in life.".

And, " Mercury may have toxic effects on the nervous, digestive and immune systems, and on lungs, kidneys, skin, and eyes".

Fig is a species of F. carica, belonging to the family Moraceae. It is a deciduous shrub, native to Southeast Asia. The tree can grow to a height of 33 ft and the fruit can be as large as 2.0 inches.

On finding a natural whole food for the treatment of kidney diseases, researchers examined the hydroalcoholic extract of ficus carica (HEFC) on gentamicin (GM)-induced nephrotoxicity.

The study included rats that were pre-fed experimental diets for 8 days and received GM (100 mg/kg body weight/day) treatment for 8 days while still on diet.

According to the tested differentiation, hydroalcoholic extract of ficus carica (HEFC) retard the progression of certain types of cancers, cardiovascular and renal disorders.

HEFC inhibited the GM nephrotoxicity by attenuating the increased serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen.

Furthermore, HEFC also inhibited the GM increased MDA level and decreased catalase, reduced glutathione.

More precisely, HEFC alone increased antioxidant expression such as CAT concentration, GSH content and decreased oxidative stress MDA level. 

Based on the findings, researchers said, "HEFC supplementation ameliorated GM-induced specific metabolic alterations and oxidative damage due to its intrinsic biochemical/antioxidant properties".

Taken altogether, common fig processed abundantly anthocyanin may be considered a natural anti-oxidative stress remedy against kidney toxicity, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of SFN in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Chinese Cabbage Reduces the Incidence of Liver Cancer

By Kyle J. Norton

The liver is the largest internal organ found in the human which plays an essential role in filtering the blood from the digestive system before passing them to other parts of the body.

The liver also produces cholesterol, a waxy substance which aids digestion, builds cell membranes and produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.

Liver disease is a class of medical conditions characterized by the reducing partly or completely the function of the liver, including liver failure.

Liver cancer is a medical condition characterized by cell growth irregularly in the liver tissue.

Liver cancer at an early stage does not cause any symptoms. However, at the advanced stage, liver cancer cells can cause a wide range of symptoms including jaundice, abdominal swelling and pain, and dark urine and white stool accompanied by the general symptoms of cancers such as unintended weight loss, loss of appetite, chronic fatigue and tiredness and gastrointestinal discomforts.

The causes of liver cancer are associated with the alternation of cells DNA which normally begins in the cells on the surface of the inner lining.

The most common risk factors of liver cancer are infected by the hepatitis virus. However, in North America, due to overexpression of overweight and obese of the population, liver cancer may be slowly progressed from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease through cirrhosis to liver cancer.

According to the statistics provided by the Canadian Cancer Society, every year, approximately, 1,900 men and 580 women are diagnosed with liver cancer, causing the death of 950 men and 270 women.

In 2017, 2,500 Canadians were diagnosed with liver cancer and 1,200 Canadians died from liver cancer.

Compared to the early stage of other cancer, the 5 years survival rate in the early stage diagnosis is only 31% and 43% of people with liver cancer diagnosed at stage 0 and 1.

On finding a potential plant that processes anti-invasive tumor activity researchers compared the potential anticancer ability of Chinese cabbage powder, which is a complex water-soluble extract from Chinese cabbage by spray-drying at an outlet temperature of 130 °C on liver cancer.
According to the chemical analysis, Chinese cabbage powder processed at least 11 potential anticancer substances.

In a 90 days animal experiment, 10% of Chinese cabbage powder in drinking water could improve the plasma micronutrient status, inhibit the formation of aflatoxin B1-DNA adducts in liver cells in the initiation of tumor growth.

Furthermore, also in vivo, 10% of Chinese cabbage powder effectively reduced the incidence of liver tumors induced by aflatoxin B1 from 6.67% to 0%.

The dose analysis assays suggested that10% may be the minimal effective dose to prevent the occurrence of early liver tumors.

Collectively, researchers wrote, "This study will help elucidate the basis of epidemiological observations of dietary cancer prevention in humans, as well as explore related mechanisms".

Taken altogether, Chinese cabbage may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of liver cancer, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Dandelion(Taraxacum officinale), the Natural Anticoagulant Activity

By Kyle J. Norton

Platelet aggregation refers to the platelet-to-platelet adhesion in the blood that forms a clot.

Platelet aggregation plays a critical role in the protection of the body against blood loss due to injury or tissue damage.

In other words, platelet aggregation is a natural reaction of the wound healing process of blood clotting in damage and injure of our body, to prevent infection and inflammation.

However, activated platelets that stimulate blood clot formation have also been found to induce atherothrombotic disease.

Antiplatelet aggregation medicines, also known as a platelet agglutination inhibitor are the types of medicine that process blood thinning property.

Diseases associated with low and abnormal blood platelet include
* Thrombocytopenia is a condition characterized by low blood platelet due to abnormal function of the bone marrow that makes platelets. patients with thrombocytopenia due to the low quantity of blood platelets may experience symptoms of a bruise, internal bleeding, nosebleed.

Long-term untreated thrombocytopenia has been found to increase the risk of cancer, liver disease, pregnancy, infections, and an abnormal immune system.

* Essential thrombocythemia is a disease associated with overproducing blood platelets by the bone marrow, leading to symptoms of blood clots that form and block the blood supply to the brain or the heart.

* Secondary thrombocytosis is also another condition caused by too many platelets produced by the bone marrow.

In other words, antiplatelet aggregation medicines reduce the risk of blood clotting used in patients who have a high risk of cardiovascular disease such as aspirin.

Coagulation disorders or bleeding disorders are medical conditions that affect blood clotting activities. The most common diseases associated with coagulation disorders are Hemophilia, Von Willebrand disease, clotting factor deficiencies, hypercoagulable states, and deep venous thrombosis.

Dandelion is a herbaceous perennial plant, genus Taraxacum, belongings to the family Asteraceae, native to temperate regions of the world. It has been used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat gout, eczema, acne, gall bladder, kidney, liver and urinary disorders, hypoglycemia, dyspepsia with constipation, edema, blood pressure, and heart weakness, chronic joint, skin diseases, etc.

On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of diseases involved in oxidative stress, scientists examined the n-hexane soluble compounds from aerial parts of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale Weber ex F.H. Wigg) antioxidant activity.

Based on the results, researchers suggest, "This fraction demonstrated insignificant antimicrobial activity and can be used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries".

Taken altogether, Dandelion may be considered an antioxidant remedy for the protection oxidative stress, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Fermented Soy May Improve Gut Microbiota on Gastrointestinal Health and Disease

By Kyle J. Norton

Gut microbiota or gastrointestinal microbiota, the complex community of microorganisms in our digestive tracts plays a critical role in a variety of metabolic functions, including produced vitamins, synthesized all essential and nonessential amino acids, and carried out biotransformation of bile.

Gut microbiota protects the intestinal structures and functions by attaching to the gut wall against the entry of pathogenic enteroinvasive bacteria into the epithelial cells.

More precisely, the guts microbiota plays a vital role in human health, including the key processes of nutrition-enhancing the digestive functioning, lipid, and energy metabolism by inducing the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), phenolics, and other molecules, and pathogen resistance by promoting the immune functioning.

In the immune perspective, gut microbiota protects the intestines by alerting the immune response against foreign invasion through specific receptors, leading to an immune system in inducing the proinflammatory cytokines.

However, the imbalance of digestive gut microbiota has been found to induce a number of diseases, syndromes, and functional aberrations, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and wider systemic manifestations of disease such as obesity, and type 2 diabetes.

In a healthy individual, the levels of gut microbiota are balanced that allow the body to function in an optimal way.

Furthermore, gut microbiota also is found to stimulate the production of some vitamins (B and K), digest certain foods that the stomach and small intestine have not been able to digest, particularly in the combat against the aggression of other bad microorganisms.

Imbalanced gut microbiota is found in obese patients, compared to healthy weight individuals.

However, alterations in gut microbiota composition have been found in patients with a low-grade inflammatory state, leading to an increased risk of several diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease.

Although the digestive tract can adapt to change, the loss of balance in gut microbiota may induce dysbiosis., leading to health problems of functional bowel disorders, inflammatory bowel disease, allergies, obesity, and diabetes.

Fermented soy products are diverse varieties of soy food that are made from fermented soybeans, including miso, natto, tempeh, and soy sauce.


On finding a potential plant that improves the digestive functioning, researchers examined the effect of fermented foods' (kefir, kombucha, sauerkraut, tempeh, natto, miso, kimchi, sourdough bread), health benefits on gut microbiota.

According to the results of the analysis of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) for their gastrointestinal effects (kefir, sauerkraut, natto, and sourdough bread).
* Fermented foods showed a potential probiotic effect on gut microorganisms.

* The fermentation-derived production of bioactive peptides, biogenic amines, and conversion of phenolic compounds to biologically active compounds prevent anti-nutrient risk.

* Fermented food, kefir, exerted beneficial effects in both lactose malabsorption and Helicobacter pylori eradication.

However, researchers said, "In summary, there is very limited clinical evidence for the effectiveness of most fermented foods in gastrointestinal health and disease".

Taken altogether, fermented soy may be considered a functional food for improvement of the gut microbiota, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Healthy Foods Broccoli Protects the Liver Against Toxicity

By Kyle J. Norton

The liver is the largest internal organ found in the human which plays an essential role in filtering the blood from the digestive system before passing them to other parts of the body.

The liver also produces cholesterol, a waxy substance which aids digestion, builds cell membranes and produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.

Liver protection is an action in which substances including medicine and herbal remedy were used to protect the liver against damage.

Liver disease is a broad term included any problems that cause the reduced function of the liver.

There are many risk factors that liver problems. Most cases of liver disease are diagnosed in the advanced stage, it takes years to develop.

There is no single cause of liver diseases. Researchers suggested that virus such as hepatitis A, B, C, long-term excessive alcohol drinking and genetic mutation inherited from the parents is the major risk factors associated with the early onset of the diseases.

Some researchers suggested overweight and obesity and congenital diseases such as Hemochromatosis and Wilson’s disease also are the prevalent risk factors of liver damage and diseases.

Liver damage and disease can also be caused by long-term intake of certain medications, such as paracetamol and Illegal drugs such as cocaine.

The most common symptoms of liver disease can be felt only after more than 75% of the liver is damaged, including persistent jaundice and gastrointestinal discomforts, abdominal pain, and swelling, leg and ankles swelling, itching, and pale color of stool.

The most common risk factors are genetic preposition, viruses, and long-term excessive alcohol drinking.

According to the statistic, the mortality rate infected by viral hepatitis has increased by 63% from 890,000 in 1990 to 1.45 million in 2013, according to a review of data collected in 183 countries.

Broccoli is a mustard/cabbage plant, belongings to the family Brassicaceae. The veggie has large flower heads, usually green in color with a mass of flower heads surrounded by leaves and evolved from a wild cabbage plant from the continent of Europe.

With an aim to find a natural food for the prevention and treatment of liver diseases, researchers examined the effect of combined therapy with Indian mustard and broccoli on rats' liver induced hepatotoxicity by long-term vincristine (VCR)

According to the results of rat selected to the study induced liver toxicity by
* Vincristine (VCR) treated group showed signs of hepatotoxicity, including altered liver architecture and higher serum levels of liver stress markers ALT and AST.

* Vincristine (VCR) treated group also showed an impaired antioxidant potential and higher mRNA levels of IL-12 and IL-4, which are markers of apoptosis in rat livers.

In other words, VCR treatment-induced hepatocyte apoptosis through stimulating the levels of apoptotic proteins and pathways.

Most importantly, the treatment of individual administration of mustard or broccoli partially ameliorated all these responses, compared to maximum improvement in the combined therapy of both extracts.

Based on the results, researchers wrote, " Thus, the long-term administration of VCR is hepatotoxic and induces apoptosis; however, the combined therapy of both extracts mitigated these effects"
Taken altogether, broccoli may be considered a liver protective supplements, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of SFN in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids, A potential Treatment for Cardiovascular Diseases

By Kyle J. Norton


Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a group of conditions associated with the heart and blood vessels.

Heart disease is a class of diseases associated with interruption of blood flow in the blood vessel or damage of the heart tissue, including coronary artery diseases (CAD) such as angina and myocardial infarction.

According to the statistics, heart disease is a leading cause of death in the US. Approximately 2000 people in the general population die of heart disease every day.

Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common type of heart disease, that kills over 370,000 people annually.

The causes of cardiovascular diseases are associated with the accumulation of plaques in the arteries, impeding the blood flow which carries the nutrients and oxygen to the heart, causing damage to the heart tissue and reduced function of the arteries.

High blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, weight, depression and family history associated with the early onset of plaques accumulated and impeding function of the arteries are the prevalent risk factors of cardiovascular diseases.

In other words, anything that serves to damage the inner lining of blood vessels and impedes the transportation of oxygen and nutrition to the heart can be defined as a risk of heart disease. Here are some early indication of heart disease symptoms.

According to the statistic cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women in the US with 90% of women having one risk factor.

The most common complications of heart diseases are heart failure, the condition occurs when the heart cannot adequately pump blood throughout the body and heart attack, it occurs when the coronary arteries narrow caused by building up of plaques that block the blood supply to the heart.

Omega-3 fatty acids are phytochemicals in the class of lipids, found abundantly in deepsea fisk, dark-green leafy vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, etc.

The three main components of Omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of chronic diseases, researchers examined the effects of omega-3-fatty acids on cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

According to the tested analysis,

* The administration of omega-3 fatty acids showed significantly reduced risk for sudden death caused by cardiac arrhythmias and all-cause mortality in patients with coronary heart disease.

* Furthermore, omega-3 fatty acids inhibited the expression of hyperlipidemia and hypertension. 

* There are no significant drug interactions with oral administration of omega-3 fatty acids.

More profoundly, the American Heart Association recommends the consumption of two servings of fish per week for persons with no history of coronary heart disease and at least one serving of fish daily for those with known coronary heart disease.

Additionally, approximately 1 g/day of eicosapentaenoic acid plus docosahexaenoic acid is recommended for cardioprotection. Higher dosages of omega-3 fatty acids are found to ameliorate the elevated triglyceride levels (2-4 g/day).

Taken altogether, Omega-3 fatty acids found abundantly in fish oil and plant oil may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of CVD, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.
