Herbal Ashwagandha Protects the Neuron Against the Onset of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in Vivo

By Kyle J. Norton

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease (MND) or Lou Gehrig's disease, is a type of dementia that causes the death of neurons controlling voluntary muscles.


Dementia is a condition of neurodegeneration syndrome among elders, affecting memory, thinking, orientation, comprehension, calculation, learning capacity, language, and judgment. Over 47 million of the worldwide population are affected by the disease, mostly in the West.

Free radicals have been found to induce Lou Gehrig's disease. Researchers found that glutamate in the synapses enhances the production of free radicals(77) only in motor nerve cells but spare other nerve cells. such as cells control senses and other body functions, causing disruption of astrocytes in regulated glutamate levels.

Maintaining a balanced ratio of antioxidant and free radicals is essential for our body to perform a daily physiological function properly.

Truly, if our body is overwhelmed by overexpression of free radicals, it will be weakened by oxidative stress, causing adversely altered lipids, proteins, and DNA that can trigger a number of human diseases(a), including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Free radicals are unstable molecules that contain at least an unpaired electron with function as oxidants or reductants by donating an electron to or accept an electron from other molecules to exhibit chain and domino's effects.

The most common oxygen-containing free radicals found epidemiologically in induced chronic diseases, including hydroxyl radical, superoxide anion radical, hydrogen peroxide, oxygen singlet, hypochlorite, nitric oxide radical, and peroxynitrite radicals.

Antioxidants have been found to reduces the risk of Lou Gehrig's disease by inhibiting the overexpression of free radicals, including
* Vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin)
High doses of vitamin B12 as an antioxidant have shown to improve or slow muscle wasting in the later stages of patients with ALS disease(78)(79).

* Vitamin E
Vitamin E protected against cell membranes from lipid peroxidation damage(80) in reducing the risk of breakdown of the cell membrane cause of ALS(81).

* Superoxide dismutase enzyme
Mutations in the superoxide dismutase enzyme can increase the risk ALS(82) in catalyzing the dismutation of superoxide into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide(83).

* Cerebral cortex
Oxidative stress and DNA alternation triggered neuron damage(84) were found in elevated levels in mice with ALS(85).

* Amino acids
Diet high in amino acids as antioxidants have shown some promising effect in treating ALS(86)(87).

Ashwagandha also is known as Withania somnifera is a nightshade plant in the genus of Withania, belonging to the family Solanaceae, native to the dry parts of India, North Africa, Middle East, and the Mediterranean.

The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine over 3000 years to treat tumors and tubercular glands, carbuncles, memory loss, and ulcers and considered as anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.

In the urgency to discover a natural ingredient for the treatment of neurological diseases, researchers examined the protective effects of Withania somnifera extract in the SOD1G93A mouse model with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

According to the tested analysis, the administration of WS extracts by gavage to mice expressing G93A mutant form of antioxidants superoxide dismutase (SOD1) found in the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis mouse increased longevity, improved motor performance and increased number of motor neurons in the lumbar spinal cord.

In other words, WS extracts inhibited the expression of mutated SOD1 by increasing the cellular chaperons with conformational folding functions.

Furthermore, proteins associated with the induction of pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptosis are also reduced by the injection of WS, through the extracts' immunomodulatory activity.

Moreover, WS extract also induced autophagy at the early stages of the disease, by cleaning out the damaged cells.

Based on the findings, researchers said," WS extracts might constitute promising therapeutics for the treatment of ALS with the involvement of misfolded SOD1".


Taken altogether, Ashwagandha may be considered supplements for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

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

Red Cabbage Processes Anti-Bacteria Infection

By Kyle J. Norton

Infectious diseases are a medical condition caused by pathogenic microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi.

Most cases of infectious diseases are contagious by spreading directly or indirectly, from one person to another.

In other words, if you kiss, or are coughed or sneezed on by an infectious person, you are at risk of developing the same infectious disease.

According to the statistic provided by the World Health Organization, 3 infectious diseases were ranked in the top ten causes of death worldwide in 2016.

More precisely, lower respiratory infections, diarrheal diseases, and tuberculosis induced 3.0 million, 1.4 million, and 1.3 million deaths, respectively.

Conventionally, most cases of infectious diseases except those caused by viruses are treated by antibiotics.

Bacteria is a type of biological cell consisted of a single cell with a simple internal structure.

The most common diseases caused by bacteria include strep throat, urinary tract infections, and tuberculosis.

Infection occurs when the bacteria successfully invade the body and start to multiply. Most cases of infectious diseases caused by bacteria are treated with antibiotics.

And, most cases of infectious disease are transmitted by airborne you can get sick if you breathe into the air that carries infectious bacteria in air particles, vector-borne if you are stunk by the insect that the bacteria and vehicle-borne if you are eating food or carrying the materials contaminated by the bacteria.

Most cases of bacterial invasion are met with the first line of immune white blood cells. In the active division of bacteria in the acute phase of infectious, the immune system response activated the production of the proinflammatory cytokine to the site of infection with an aim to kill off all bacteria.

However, if the immune fail to kill off all the bacteria within the 3 - 8 weeks period, it then will adapt to the change, leading to chronic inflammatory and infectious diseases.

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 prevention of infectious disease, researchers examined the B. oleracea L (red cabbage) anti-microbial activity.

In 22 pathogenic bacteria and fungi, B. oleracea L (red cabbage) demonstrated antibacterial (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli O157: H7, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium) and antifungal (Trichophyton rubrum and Aspergillus terreus) activities at a minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and the minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC), respectively.

In Chemical analysis, the potent antimicrobial action from B. oleracea L (red cabbage) was attributed to the rich source of phenolic compounds, anthocyanins.

Based on the results, researchers wrote, "This extract is potentially novel for future antimicrobials, inexpensive, and readily available at a large scale for pharmaceutical companies for further investigation and processing".

Taken altogether, red cabbage may be considered a natural antibiotic, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Enchinanea Processes Anxiolytic Effects with No Side Effects

By Kyle J. Norton

An anxiolytic is a type of medication, or other intervention, that inhibits anxiety.

Anxiety is a mental disorder characterized by worry about future events and fear of current events.

Some researchers suggested that anxiety disorders are conditions associated with the combination of biological, psychological, and individual factors and the most commonly reported psychiatric conditions and frequently occur as comorbid disorders.

According to the statistic, anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in the U.S., affecting 40 million adults in the age of 18 and older, or 18.1% of the population every year.

The exact causes of anxiety disorders are debatable. However, a family history of anxiety recent or prolonged exposure to stress, excessive consumption of stimulants such as caffeine or tobacco is associated with the onset of the disorders.

The symptoms of anxiety disorders can be psychological or physical, including difficulty concentrating and sleeping, irritability, persistent stomachaches or diarrhea, sweaty palms, shaking and rapid heartbeat.

People experience anxiety differently. Some people feel a sudden moment of anxiety just a bad feeling, it comes and goes, only lasting a short time. Depending on how people cope with the moments of anxiety, the events can be brief or last a few days.

However, in some persons, if anxiety does not go away, they may require treatment from the related field specialists.

If you are frequently experience symptoms of nervousness, restlessness, or being tense feelings of danger, panic, or dread rapid heart rate rapid breathing, or hyperventilation,..... you may have developed an anxiety disorder.

Echinacea also is known as purple coneflowers, is a flowering plant of the genus Echinacea, belongings to the family Asteraceae, native to eastern and central North America. The herb has been used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat or prevent colds, flu, infections by stimulating the immune function, etc.

On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of psychological diseases, researchers examined the anxiolytic effects of a standardized Echinacea extract.

According to the results of a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with a standardized Echinacea Angustifolia root extract included volunteers who scores above 45 points on the state or on the trait subscale of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) treated with 40 mg Echinacea or with placebo tablets twice daily for 7 days followed by a 3 week-long washout period, 
* State anxiety scores were decreased by approximately 11 points by the end of the treatment period in the Echinacea group, compared to the decrease of around 3-points in the placebo group (p< 0.01).

* The effect maintained over the washout period and the difference from placebo was significant from the 7th day of treatment throughout.

* Furthermore, the changes were less robust with trait anxiety scores, but the preparation performed better than placebo in patients with high baseline anxiety.

* More importantly, neither BDI nor PSS scores were affected by the treatments. Adverse effects were rare and mild, and all were observed in the placebo group.

After talking about other factors into account, researchers said, "These findings suggest that particular Echinacea preparations have significant beneficial effects on anxiety in humans".

Taken altogether, Herbal Enchinanea may be considered adjunct therapies in the treatment of anxiety disorder, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

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

Pinto Beans (Phaseolus) in the Promotion of Gut Microbiota Functioning

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.

The gut 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 function.

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.

In the immune perspective, gut microbiota protects the intestines by alerting the immune response against foreign invasion through specific receptors, induced immune system in the production of 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.

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

On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of digestive diseases, scientists examined how legume type and processing method affected digestibility, and subsequent gut microbiota and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) formation from the pinto bean in vitro digestion.

Pinto bean is also known as common bean, genus Phaseolus and the family Fabaceae. It has a mottled appearance of darker reddish-brown spots on a lighter brownish beige background, thus appearing painted or spotted.

According to the tested analysis of the digestion residues that were fractionated into the soluble and insoluble fiber, and fermented by microbiota from pig feces,
* In vitro, the digestibility was affected significantly by processing method and legume type.

* Autoclaving resulted in higher digestibility.

* The in-vitro digested bean residues caused a rapid pH decrease in the first 12 h during the fermentation with pig feces, and a significant increase in the formation of SCFAs.

More precisely, there is a positive modulation of the gut microbiota by the in-vitro digested bean residues.

Pinto bean exhibited the highest relative abundance in the treatments with germinated bean's soluble residues related to the gut microbiota.

Taken altogether, Pinto beans may improve the balance of the gut microbiota, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Tocopherols Inhibits the Onset of Age-Related Macular Degeneration in Elderly

By Kyle J. Norton

Age-related diseases are medical conditions associated with the increase of age.

Most recently age-related diseases in the elderly are cardiovascular diseases and macular degeneration.

Cardiovascular diseases are a group of conditions triggered by the abnormal function of the heart and blood vessels abnormality.

Age-related macular degeneration is a medical condition that causes irreversible blurring of the central vision in people over age 60.

In other words, AMD may cause significant visual disability.

Most cases of the early stage of AMD were diagnosed during routine eye health examinations.

The elderly at the early stage of age-related macular degeneration is asymptomatic. However, some patients may experience symptoms of slightly blurred central vision. Most cases of the early stage of AMD were diagnosed during routine eye health examinations.

Over time, age-related macular degeneration may affect the vision including the reading as the blurred area increased in size.

The advanced age-related macular degeneration has been found to induce irreversible blindness and visual impairment, according to the epidemiological studies.

According to statistics, approximately 11 million people in the US have some form of age-related macular degeneration. The risk of getting advanced age-related macular degeneration increases from 2% for those ages 50-59 to nearly 30% for those over the age of 75.

Besides aging, some researchers suggest that other factors such as smoking, family history, gender, race, sun exposure, diet, and obesity also increase the risk of AMD developing.

Tocopherols are phytochemicals of which many have vitamin E activity, belonging to the group of Lipids, found abundantly in butter, egg yolk, milk fat, some vegetable, and seed or nut oils, etc.

On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of degenerative diseases, researchers examined the effect of β-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols scavenging free radical and cation radicals of another form of vitamin A-retinal against the onset of age-related macular degeneration.


According to the analysis, β-, γ-, and δ-tocopherols showed a significant in scavenging of cation radicals of retinal, followed by retinoic acid, (0.03 to 5.6) × 109 M-1·s-1, and retinol, (0.08 to 1.6) × 108 M-1·s-1.

Trolox is substantially less efficient at scavenging retinoid cation radicals than α-tocopherol and urate, but it is more efficient at scavenging the cation radicals of retinoic acid and retinol than δ-tocopherol.

These scavenging activities suggest that tocopherols can effectively compete with amino acids and proteins for retinoid cation radicals, thereby protecting these important biomolecules from oxidation.

Based on the results, researchers said, "tocopherols can diminish the oxidative damage to the skin and retina and thereby protect from skin photosensitivity and the development and/or progression of changes in blinding retinal diseases such as Stargardt's disease and age-related macular degeneration (AMD)".

Taken altogether, tocopherols may be considered a supplement for reducing the risk of age-related macular degeneration, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

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

Omega -3 Fatty Acids Inhibits the Risk of Breast Density induced Breast Cancer in Obese

By Kyle J. Norton


The women's breasts are made up of specialized tissue that produces milk (glandular tissue) and fatty tissue. The size of a women's breast is totally determined by the amount of fat.

Breast density is a term that refers to relatively high amounts of glandular tissue and fibrous connective tissue and relatively low amounts of fatty tissue in the breast seen by a mammogram.

Besides genetic preposition, younger age women, women with a lower-body max index and taking hormone therapy in menopausal women have been found to have higher breast density.

Epidemiologically, women who have a high breast density are at an increased risk of breast cancer. Therefore, this group of women is recommended to have a regular mammogram testing beginning at age 40 and consider repeating the screening annually.


Breast cancer is a medical condition associated with abnormal cell growth in the breast tissue due to the alternation of cell DNA.

Most cases of breast cancer (malignant breast neoplasm) start in the cells on the surface of the inner lining of the tissues of the breast either from the milk ducts (Ductal carcinoma) or the lobules (Lobular carcinoma) that supply the ducts with milk.

At the early stage of breast cancer, most patients experience the forming of lumps or modules on the breast or nearby breast tissue.

However, at the later stage, patients may experience symptoms of swelling of all or part of a breast, breast or nipple pain, nipple retraction and large lumps on the breast.

Some invasive breast cancer in this stage can also induce secondary metastasis through the blood and fluids circulation.

According to the statistic, women diagnosed with breast cancer at stage 0 and 1 have the 5 years of the survival rate of 100%. In 2010, over 250,000 new cases of breast cancer were expected to be diagnosed in the U.S. alone and the risk of getting invasive breast cancer during the lifetime of a woman is 1/8.

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 breast cancer, researchers compared the effects of Lovaza (n-3FA) on breast density in obese and nonobese women.

According to the Isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) method used to analyze plasma from obese and lean women at each time point (baseline, 12 and 24-months, n = 10 per group), several differentially expressed proteins (hemopexin precursor, vitamin D binding protein isoform 1 precursor [VDBP], fibronectin isoform 10 precursor [FN], and α-2 macroglobulin precursor [A2M]) associated with inflammatory expression and breast cancer risk.

More precisely, according to the Western blot analysis, n-3FA administration alters the expression of parameters associated with inflammation and exerted a tumor protective activity in obese, including the aforementioned proteins.

Moreover, the posthoc analysis also revealed that n-3FA administration reduced BD selectively in obese postmenopausal women.

Taken altogether, Omega-3 fatty acids found abundantly in fish oil and plant oil may be considered a functional food for the prevention of breast cancer by reducing the breast density, 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.

Ashwagandha Protects the Liver Against Injury

By Kyle J. Norton

The liver is the largest internal organ in the human body, played an essential role in filtering blood from the intestine before passing them to other parts of the body.

The organ also produced cholesterol, a waxy substance that is needed to aid digestion and build strong cell membranes, production of steroid hormones and vitamins.

Liver injury may be a result caused by physical impact or penetrating trauma. In some cases, liver injury can also be induced by toxicity, leading to acute liver injury.

Liver injury can be mild or severe. In a mild case, liver injury can recover itself. However, in severe cases, surgery to stop the bleeding and remove the part of injury may be necessary.

Most cases of liver injury can lead to abdominal pain and tenderness caused by bleeding blood in the abdomen that irritates the abdominal tissue.

The severity of a liver injury can be diagnosed by computed tomography (CT) or ultrasonography.

According to the statistics, liver injury has been found to constitute 5% of all traumas, making it the most common abdominal injury.

The most common symptoms associated with liver injury are shocks due to severe bleeding inducing a rapid heart rate, rapid breathing, and cold, clammy, pale or bluish skin.

In some cases, blood accumulated in the abdomen may irritate the abdominal tissue, leading to symptoms of abdominal pain and swollen and tenderness.

Depending on the degree of injury, patients are either treated with nonoperative management and observation for a full self-recovery or surgery.


Ashwagandha also is known as Withania somnifera is a nightshade plant in the genus of Withania, belonging to the family Solanaceae, native to the dry parts of India, North Africa, Middle East, and the Mediterranean.

The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine over 3000 years to treat tumors and tubercular glands, carbuncles, memory loss, and ulcers and considered as anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.

In the urgency to discover a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of liver diseases, researchers examined the effects of withanolides (WA) from Withania somnifera root extract on hepatic toxicity in an animal model

According to the tested analysis, the application of WA profoundly protects wild-type mice but not Nrf2-disrupted mice against APAP hepatotoxicity.

Where Nrf2 is a protein that regulates the expression of antioxidant proteins against oxidative damage.

In vivo and in vitro, WA is a potent inducer of Nrf2-dependent cytoprotective enzyme expression.

In other words, WA  protects the liver damage against oxidative stress by enhancing the function by the activation of antioxidant enzyme protein independently to a redox-regulated substrate adaptor protein Keap1 and dependently on pathway associated with limit proliferation in cells. 

Taken altogether, Ashwagandha processed a high amount of bioactive compound WA may be considered supplements for the prevention of liver toxicity, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

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