Ginger may be considered a natural whole food to treat osteoarthritis with no side effects, some scientists suggested.
Osteoarthritis is a chronic inflammatory disease, as a result of the protective cartilage on the ends of your bones being worn and torn down over time. The disease affects millions of people worldwide.
In contrast to the general belief, osteoarthritis only damages the joints of the hands and knees, but also causes inflammation of the joints in your hips and spine.
The condition is a slow development disease, often starting in the 40s and 50s, and affects almost all people to some degree by age 80.
The common risk factors of osteoarthritis are aging, gender, improper healing of injured joints at a young age, obesity, and bone deformity. However, people who have a job with tasks that place repetitive stress on a particular joint are associated with the onset of osteoarthritis in most industrial countries.
Dr. Berran Yucesoy, the lead author in the concerns of the repetitive occupation associated with the risk of osteoarthritis launched an investigation to examine the occupational that contribute to this debilitating condition.
The results of searching the medical data on PubMed using the search terms osteoarthritis, occupation, work, and genetics wrote, " One of the most common occupational risk factors for knee OA is heavy physical workload" and "Other risk factors include frequent exposure to several biomechanical stressors such bending of the knee, kneeling or squatting, standing for long hours (≥ 2 hours per day), walking ≥ 3 km/day, regular stair climbing, heavy lifting (≥ 10 kg), jumping, and vibration".
Believe it or not, the researcher continued, " a more than the five-fold greater risk of knee OA among workers ≥ 55 years who were exposed to a combination of heavy lifting (> 25 kg) and kneeling/squatting or climbing stairs".
If your occupation is in the group mentioned in the study, you are likely to develop osteoarthritis at a younger age. Please make sure you are taking all preventive measures to reduce the risk of the onset of the disease later in life
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The pungent and kitchen spice has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
With an aim to find evidence that ginger powder consumption can relieve pain and inflammation due to specific anti-inflammatory phytochemical constituents, researchers at the joint investigation led by the Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences launched a study to examine the effect of ginger supplementation on proinflammatory factors.
The randomized double-blind placebo-controlled 3-month clinical trial investigating knee osteoarthritis includes 120 participants assigned to one of two groups: the ginger group (GG) or the placebo group (PG).
Participants in the GG intervention received capsules containing 500 mg of ginger powder, while PG participants received capsules filled with 500 mg of starch.
At 3 months, the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) cytokines were found to decrease substantially in the GG compared to the PG.
Dr. Mozaffari-Khosravi H, the lead scientist wrote in the final report " Ginger supplementation may have promising benefits for knee osteoarthritis".
Furthermore, the assessment of the clinical efficacy and safety of oral ginger for the symptomatic treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) by carrying out a systematic literature search followed by meta-analyses on selected studies in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing oral ginger treatment with placebo in OA patients aged >18 years also suggested that
* Ginger intake shows a statistically significant pain reduction with a low degree of inconsistency among trials.
* The ginger treatment group also demonstrates a statistically significant reduction in disability.
* Patients given ginger are more than twice as likely to discontinue treatment compared to placebo. And,
* Ginger was modestly efficacious and reasonably safe for the treatment of OA.
Taken altogether, through the inhibition of pro-inflammatory factors, ginger, and a ginger supplement may be considered for the prevention and adjunct therapies combined with primary medicine for the treatment of osteoarthritis.

#Phytochemical #Sinigrin Found in #Cruciferousvegetables Speeds Up Wound Healing in Vitros, Researchers Find
By Kyle J. Norton
Sinigrin may be used as a natural and bioactive compound to speed up wound healing, according to studies.
Wound healing is a natural process of an immune system response to protect our body against harmful pathogenic invasion.
After receiving the message from the neurons in the brain, the immune first line of defense including the macrophages stimulates the blood palettes to the site of infection to cover the injury and production of pro-inflammatory cytokines to kill off the stimuli and pathogens which try to enter the body through the wound.
Some anti-inflammatory cytokines under normal conditions also switch to pro-inflammatory cytokines depending on the severity of the injury.
In some cases, overproduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines can cause damage or death of the nearby cells, leading to the formation of irreversible scars, such as hepatitis infection.
Even worse, if the immune system can not kill off all pathogens in the acute phase of infection, it will compromise to the new change, leading to chronic low-grade inflammation.
Bacterial pathogens often cause infection in specific areas of the body by overgrowth of the number of bacteria in the site, including the gut.
According to epidemiological studies, some bacteria are opportunistic pathogens, and people with a weakened immune system are particularly prone to their invasion.
Dr. Dennis W. Metzger, the lead scientist wrote, " While it has been commonly thought that viral-induced epithelial cell damage allows bacterial invasiveness, recent studies by several groups have now implicated dysfunctional innate immune defenses following influenza as the primary culprit for enhanced susceptibility to secondary bacterial infections".
The results strongly indicated the increased risk of bacterial infection in people with a weakened immune system.
Researchers on finding a natural compound for speeding up wound healing explored the wound healing effect of sinigrin on HaCaT cells.
In the phytosome with sinigrin with an average particle size of 153 ± 39 nm, the zeta potential of 10.09 ± 0.98 mV and complex efficiency of 69.5 ± 5%.
The formulated sinigrin-phytosome complex significantly exhibited a greater wound-healing effect compared to the use of sinigrin alone.
Compared to only 71% of wounds closer to sinigrin after 42 hours, the phytosome complex completely healed the wound.
At a lower concentration of 0.07 mg/mL, the sinigrin–phytosome complex displayed 79%, whilst sinigrin showed only 50% of wound closure.
At the higher concentration of 0.14 mg/mL the sinigrin–phytosome complex completely cured the wound (100%), compared to only 71% wound healing of sinigrin.
Furthermore, The sinigrin-phytosome complex displayed minimal toxicity towards HaCaT cells.
Injection of the complex also exerted a strong effect on A-375, a human melanoma cell line.
Dr. Mazumder A, after taking into account co and confounders wrote at the end of the experiment, " sinigrin-phytosome complex augmented the therapeutic potential of sinigrin towards the wound healing activity".
Taken altogether, sinigrin a bioactive ingredient in cruciferous vegetables may be considered a functional supplement for speedup wound healing, pending the confirmation of a large sample size and multicenter human study.
However, intake of bioactive in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care, as liver toxicity may be induced if overdosed.

#Herbal #Anise Exhibits #Antioxidant Activities Against the Onset of #GastricUlcers, Researchers Say
Anise may have a potential and substantial effect in reduced risk and progression and treatment of gastric ulcers, some scientists suggested.
Anise is a flowering plant of the species of Pimpinella anisum, genus Pimpinella, belongings to the family Apiaceae native to Egypt and the Mediterranean region, used in traditional herbal medicine as a fragrance in soaps, oils, and mouth fresheners and stomachic, anti-septic, anti-spasmodic,...
In the evaluate the claim of Unani and Arabian traditional medicine practitioners on the gastroprotective potential effect by using 80% ethanol, 0.2 mol/L NaOH, 25% NaCl, and indomethacin-induced gastric ulceration and secretion in a rat model, researchers found that application of doses of 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight of Anise exert a significant protective activity against basal gastric acid secretion, acidity and completely inhibited the ruminal ulceration caused by necrotizing agents, by initiating production of depleted levels of gastric mucosal NP-SH and gastric wall mucus concentration.
Further analysis suggested that the anti-gastric ulcers of Anise suspension were attributed to the herbal medicine antioxidants in enhanced production of hormone prostaglandins in inhibited levels of gastric secretion.
The hormone has been studied intensively for the protection and treatment of gastric ulcers by some scientists due to its effect in promoting rapid restitution of the superficial epithelium of the gastric mucosa and preservation of the deeper layers through the ability of the hormones in inhibited gastric secretion, stimulated bicarbonate secretion, and increased gastric blood volume.
According to Dr. Wilson DE, "Orally administered prostaglandin analogs have been helpful in some patients who failed to heal with standard ulcer treatment and in smokers, who usually do not heal as well as nonsmokers".
Some researchers suggested that prostaglandin analogs may be the ideal solution for patients who are at high risk for gastric lesions due to chronic consumers of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or alcohol.
Moreover, in the investigation of the effect of essential oil isolated from Croton zehntneri (EOCZ), a plant native to northeastern Brazil, and anethole at doses of 30–300 mg/kg, researchers found that the composition demonstrated a strongly and linearly gastroprotective effect against ethanol- and indomethacin-induced gastric damage without changing to cold-restraint stress-induced ulcers in rats.
According to the measurement by Alcian blue binding assay, EOCZ and anethole (both at 30 and 300 mg/kg) similarly and significantly increased the mucus production by the gastric mucosa.
Additionally, the composition also consisted a significant effect on the volume of gastric juice, pH, or total acidity through its ability of EOCZ and anethole in enhanced production of gastric wall mucus.
The above of differentiation was supported by the study to test the major bioactive compound anethole effect in the ethanol-induced ulcer model in mice conducted by the joint investigation led by Coordenação do Curso de Farmácia,
According to the results, after taking into account other co-founders, the application of anethole (300 mg/kg) increased the level of gastric mucus, while derivatives (300 mg/kg) showed gastroprotective activity without affecting mucus secretion, through anethole antioxidant and anti-inflammation activities.
By examining the antioxidant aspects in the experiment mice, researchers surprisingly found that anethole exhibited a protective gastric effect through reduced oxidative stress caused by induced suspension in the activated gastric mucosal nitric oxide (NO) in maintaining gastric mucosal integrity and improving the production of the natural antioxidants in the host body, including glutathione (GSH), lipid peroxide (MDA, measured as malondialdehyde) glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and catalase.
Importantly, anethole also reduced oxidative stress in initiated levels of pro-inflammatory substances of plasma tumor necrosis factor-α with function involved in systemic inflammation in the acute phase reaction and interleukin-1β and IL-6 in regulated immune response in protecting the host against bacterial and viral in the induction of infection.
Taken together, herbal Anise and its major chemical constituent anethole may be considered a secondary therapy accompanied by conventional medicine for the treatment of gastric ulcers. However, the intake of Anise supplements should be taken with extreme care in the prevention of acute liver toxicity.

Antioxidant #Indicaxanthin Inhibits the Onco-#Suppressor Gene Associated with the Risk of #ColonCancer, Researchers Find
By Kyle J. Norton
The colon formed part of the digestive system, is the 2nd part of intestines found in the large bowel consisting of the colon and rectum. The colon plays a critical role to absorb water from the small bowel contents and breaking down certain materials in the feces into substances in which some of which are reabsorbed and reused by the body.
Cancer is a class of chronic diseases caused by cell DNA alternation in the tissue of a specific organ.
The invasive tumor tends to spread to other nearby healthy tissue compared to a noninvasive and benign tumor.
Colon cancer is a chronic condition characterized by irregular cell growth that starts in the cells in the inner lining of the tissues of the colon tissues, after penetrating into deeper layers to form a tumor, through the unlimited cell cycle division.
Colon cancer is relatively very common, slowly growing and progressing in a predictable way.
However, at the advanced stage, colon cancerous cells can travel a distance away to invade other healthy tissue, leading to secondary metastasis.
Together with rectal cancer, colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in Western countries, including the US and Canada.
According to the statistics, the lifetime risk of developing colon cancer is about one in 23. Colon cancer accounts for 71% of all cases of colorectal cancer. The overall 5 years survival rate of localized colon cancer is 90%.
The 5-year survival rate of colon cancer is 90%. Only 39% of patients are diagnosed in the localized stage.
Dr. Bandaru S. Reddy, in examining the types and amount of dietary fat and colon cancer risk wrote, "The role of types of dietary fat, especially saturated fats of animal origin, n−6- and n−3-rich polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the etiology of colorectal cancer has become increasingly apparent".
And, "Epidemiological studies indicate a positive association between the dietary intake of saturated fat and/or animal fat and colon cancer risk and an inverse relationship between the intake of fish and fish oil rich in n−3 PUFAs and colon cancer development".
In other words, if you follow the Western diet, you are at an increased risk of colon cancer.
Indicaxanthin is a phytochemical in the class of red and yellow indole-derived pigments of Betacyanins, belongings to the group of Betalains found abundantly in beets, chard, etc.
In finding a potent compound for the treatment of cancer, researchers examined the potential influence of consistent dietary concentrations of indicaxanthin on LOVO1, CACO2, HT29, HCT116, and DLD1 cells.
According to the tested analysis, Indicaxanthin exerted a significant anti-proliferative activity in all cell lines but HT29 by inhibiting some methylation-silenced on-co-suppressor genes.
In other words, Indicaxanthin normalized the gene expression associated with cancer cell suppression without affecting the function of basally hypermethylated such as SFRP1 and HPP1.
Interestingly, indicaxanthin increased the DNA Methyltransferases (DNMT) gene expression but decrease the activity involved in the promotion of various types of cancer, including colon cancer.
Most importantly, Indicaxanthin also increased the expression of genes involved in DNA demethylation associated with the activity of unwanted DNA methyltransferase-induced tumor progression.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "contribute to new knowledge in the field of phytochemicals and specifically suggest dietary indicaxanthin as a potential epigenetic agent to protect colon cells against tumoral alterations".
Taken altogether, indicaxanthin may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of colon cancer, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Herbal #Turmeric Improves the Immune Functioning Against the Risk of #AcquiredImmunodeficiencySyndrome (#AIDS), According to Scientists)
By Kyle J. Norton
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a disease associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection at the most advanced stage.
In other words, if an HIV-infected person has a CD4, the glycoprotein found on the surface of immune cells counts less than 200 cells/mm3, he/she is considered to have developed AIDS.
AIDS is caused by the infection of HIV. However, most HIV-infected patients are HIV carriers.
The most common risk factors associated with HIV injection are contact with body fluids such as infected blood, milk coming from a mother who carries the HIV, vaginal or anal sex, sharing drugs needles, and oral sex.
Believe it or not, HIV cannot live outside the human body for long because the virus needs body fluid to survive.
According to the statistics, approximately, 1.1 million people in the US are living with HIV, including 15% of those who don't know they are infected. Only half of the patients half are virally suppressed.
In 2016, 39,782 cases of new HIV were diagnosed.
Some researchers' sexual behavior of a person may have a strong impact on increasing the risk of HIV injection. More precisely,
Dr. Molly S. Rosenberg, the lead scientist wrote, "HIV prevalence was very high among HAALSI participants (23%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 21 to 24), with no sex differences. Recent sexual activity was common (56%, 95% CI: 55 to 58) across all HIV status categories. Condom use was low among HIV-negative adults (15%, 95% CI: 14 to 17), higher among HIV-positive adults who were unaware of their HIV status (27%, 95% CI: 22 to 33), and dramatically higher among HIV-positive adults who were aware of their status (75%, 95% CI: 70 to 80). Casual sex and multiple partnerships were reported at moderate levels, with slightly higher estimates among HIV-positive compared to HIV-negative adults".
And, "Older HIV-positive adults in an HIV hyperendemic community of rural South Africa report sexual behaviors consistent with high HIV transmission risk. Older HIV-negative adults report sexual behaviors consistent with high HIV acquisition risk".
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belongings to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as an anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, and wound healing agent, and for the treatment of treat flatulence, bloating, appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
With an aim to find a natural compound for the treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, researchers examined the immunomodulatory effects of Curcuma longa L., purple sweet potato, and mixtures of the two (CPM) in an animal model.
The study included selected C57BL/6 mice infected with LP-BM5 murine leukemia virus (MuLV), randomly divided into seven groups as follows:
* Normal control,
* Infected control (LP-BM5 MuLV infection),
* Positive control (LP-BM5 MuLV infection+dietary supplement of red ginseng 300 mg/kg body weight),
* The original powder of C. longa L. (C; LP-BM5 MuLV infection+dietary supplement of C 189 mg/kg body weight),
* The original powder of purple sweet potato (P; LP-BM5 MuLV infection+dietary supplement of P 1811 mg/kg body weight), CPM Low (CPL; LP-BM5 MuLV infection+CPM 2 g/kg body weight), and
* CPM High (CPH; LP-BM5 MuLV infection+CPM 5 g/kg body weight). Dietary supplementation lasted for 12 weeks.
According to the tested assays, dietary supplementation of CPM inhibited LP-BM5 MuLV-induced lymphadenopathy, an inflammatory disease of the lymph nodes, and splenomegaly, a condition of abnormal enlargement of the spleen.
Furthermore, CPM also enhanced the immune function in recognizing invasive and foreign viruses, which may weaken the immune system to initiate the onset of infection.
In other words, CPM enhanced the immune function against the progression of MuLV.
More precisely, CPM reduced the decrease in T- and B cell proliferation reduced the population of CD4(+)/CD8(+) T cells, and inhibited the unbalanced production of T helper-1 (Th1)/T helper-2 (Th2) cytokines in LP-BM5 MuLV-infected mice.
Moreover, the immune function also was exhibited by the injection of CPM observed by the supplement immune-modulatory activity, including the inhibition of the reduction of phagocytosis in peritoneal macrophages and decreased serum levels of immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin E (IgE), and immunoglobulin G (IgG).
Based on the results, researchers after taking other factors into account wrote, "CPM had a positive effect on immunomodulation in C57BL/6 mice induced by LP-BM5 leukemia retrovirus infection".
Taken altogether, turmeric used alone or combined with other herbal medicines may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of a supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a disease associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection at the most advanced stage.
In other words, if an HIV-infected person has a CD4, the glycoprotein found on the surface of immune cells counts less than 200 cells/mm3, he/she is considered to have developed AIDS.
AIDS is caused by the infection of HIV. However, most HIV-infected patients are HIV carriers.
The most common risk factors associated with HIV injection are contact with body fluids such as infected blood, milk coming from a mother who carries the HIV, vaginal or anal sex, sharing drugs needles, and oral sex.
Believe it or not, HIV cannot live outside the human body for long because the virus needs body fluid to survive.
According to the statistics, approximately, 1.1 million people in the US are living with HIV, including 15% of those who don't know they are infected. Only half of the patients half are virally suppressed.
In 2016, 39,782 cases of new HIV were diagnosed.
Some researchers' sexual behavior of a person may have a strong impact on increasing the risk of HIV injection. More precisely,
Dr. Molly S. Rosenberg, the lead scientist wrote, "HIV prevalence was very high among HAALSI participants (23%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 21 to 24), with no sex differences. Recent sexual activity was common (56%, 95% CI: 55 to 58) across all HIV status categories. Condom use was low among HIV-negative adults (15%, 95% CI: 14 to 17), higher among HIV-positive adults who were unaware of their HIV status (27%, 95% CI: 22 to 33), and dramatically higher among HIV-positive adults who were aware of their status (75%, 95% CI: 70 to 80). Casual sex and multiple partnerships were reported at moderate levels, with slightly higher estimates among HIV-positive compared to HIV-negative adults".
And, "Older HIV-positive adults in an HIV hyperendemic community of rural South Africa report sexual behaviors consistent with high HIV transmission risk. Older HIV-negative adults report sexual behaviors consistent with high HIV acquisition risk".
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belongings to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as an anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, and wound healing agent, and for the treatment of treat flatulence, bloating, appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
With an aim to find a natural compound for the treatment of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, researchers examined the immunomodulatory effects of Curcuma longa L., purple sweet potato, and mixtures of the two (CPM) in an animal model.
The study included selected C57BL/6 mice infected with LP-BM5 murine leukemia virus (MuLV), randomly divided into seven groups as follows:
* Normal control,
* Infected control (LP-BM5 MuLV infection),
* Positive control (LP-BM5 MuLV infection+dietary supplement of red ginseng 300 mg/kg body weight),
* The original powder of C. longa L. (C; LP-BM5 MuLV infection+dietary supplement of C 189 mg/kg body weight),

Many researchers have raised questions about their's quality and effectiveness, depending too much on geographic differences, time of growth and harvest, etc. I do believe, these questions can only be answered by an experienced herbalist.
Dopamine, a neurotransmitter plays an important role in the brain of the human body, including sexual behavior. Besides the regulation of cognitive, integrative, and reward processes, the organic chemical of catecholamine and phenethylamine also can trigger penile erection and control of sexual function by acting on oxytocinergic neurons.
Dr. Baskerville TA said," Dopamine demonstrates the potential existence of an interaction between central dopamine and hormone in controlling sexual reproduction during penile erection
In fact, the effect of a pro-erectile dose of apomorphine, a mixed dopamine receptor agonist, showed stimulation of dopamine receptors, induced the release of oxytocin in the brain to mediate and reinforce effects of sexual activity in regulating the sexual behavior (e.g., penile erection) with those controlling sexual motivation and sexual arousal.
Catnip may be the next generation of herbal medicine used as dopamine to increase penile erection and improve male sexual behavior.
Catnip is also known as catswort, or catmint, a plant of Nepeta, belonging to the family of Lamiaceae, native to Europe and Asia, used in herbal medicine as an insect repellent, and to treat digestive disorders, children's restlessness and nervousness, fevers, colds, and flu, skin irritations stimulate sweating, promote menstruation, etc.
According to Paulista University, male rats of the NC group increased penile erection. facilitate sexual behavior and a decrease in general activity involving dopaminergic systems.
Several studies suggested that dopamine is a neurotransmitter that plays an important role in regulating and controlling penile erection and sexual behavior, but the use of herbal medicine should only be prescribed by herbalists to prevent depression.

#Healthyfood #NavyBean Processes Antioxidant Activities, Researchers Say
By Kyle J. Norton
Antioxidants are stable atoms that inhibit oxidation induced by free radicals.
Free radicals are highly unstable atoms. Internally, free radicals are produced by our body's cell metabolism. Externally, free radicals can enter our body from the environmental sources, such as the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink.
In other words, any chemical compounds or molecules which process an oxygen atom can be free radicals in a chemical reaction with other atoms.
According to epidemiological studies, free radicals are dangerous to human health in excessive amounts. Overexpression of free radicals-induced oxidative stress has been found to damage the lipid, and protein and induce the alternation of healthy cell DNA.
Out of all damages caused by the overexpression of free radicals, some researchers suggested that lipid peroxidation induced by free radicals has a strong implication in the pathogenesis of various disorders and diseases.
In a healthy person, antioxidants produced by the body are more than enough to counter the expression of free radicals. However, in people with a weakened immune system, the intake of dietary antioxidants regularly can be helpful.
Oxidative stress can either be caused by the overexpression of free radicals or the depletion of antioxidant enzymes produced by the host.
Some researchers suggested that by balancing the ratio of free radicals and antioxidants in the body, diseases associated with oxidative stress can be preventable.
Dr. Monica H Carlsen wrote, "A plant-based diet protects against chronic oxidative stress-related diseases. Dietary plants contain variable chemical families and amounts of antioxidants".
And, "there are several thousand-fold differences in antioxidant content of foods. Spices, herbs, and supplements include the most antioxidant-rich products in our study, some exceptionally high. Berries, fruits, nuts, chocolate, vegetables, and products thereof constitute common foods and beverages with high antioxidant values".
The results strongly suggested that intake of a higher amount of berries, fruits, nuts, chocolate, and vegetables which are antioxidant-rich products can protect us against the risk of diseases associated with oxidative stress.
The small, white navy bean, also called pea bean or haricot, popular in both dry and green forms, is very popular in Britain and the US, native to Peru. the beans are now grown and consumed across the world, due to their numerous health benefits.
With an aim to find a natural compound for the treatment of diseases associated with oxidative stress, researchers examined the antioxidant effects of a pinto bean, cowpea, baby lima bean, lentil, chickpea, small red bean, red kidney bean, black kidney bean, navy bean, and mung bean extracts.
Navy beans showed significantly lesser antioxidant activity in vitro compared to those lentils with total antioxidant activity (720.68 U/g), and DPPH• scavenging activity (38.5%).
In free radical scavenging activity, navy bean also showed a lesser activity compared to those of black kidney bean (85.68%) and baby lima bean (74.97%) extracts in inhibiting the oxidation of Among the extracts, hydroxyl radicals (•OH).
In the chemical analysis, the total antioxidant activity (r=0.84), DPPH• scavenging activity (r=0.83), and total reducing power (r=0.84) were positively correlated with the total phenolic content which also lower in the navy been compared to those of lentils.
Taken altogether, the navy bean may be considered a natural antioxidant for the treatment of diseases associated with oxidative stress, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
