#Ginger Plus Exercises Are Associated with a Reduced Risk of #MetabolicSyndrome, Researchers Say

Kyle J. Norton

Ginger may have a potential and profound effect in regulating the expression of metabolic syndrome, some scientists suggested.

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions associated with the onset of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, including fat around the waist, elevated blood pressure, high triglycerides, elevated blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.

Researchers suggested that people who have 3 of 5 above conditions are at substantial risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.

There is no single cause of the metabolic syndrome. some conditions epidemiologically are associated with overweight or obesity, insulin resistance, inactive lifestyle, and poor diet.

According to the statistic, In the US, approximately, over 23 percent of adults have metabolic syndrome, many of them do not know they have it.

In fact, metabolic syndrome can be reversed through a healthy lifestyle choice, accompanied by weight loss.

Dr. Christos Pitsavos, the cardio team at the University of Athens and Society for Biomedical Diabetes Research, wrote, "Several epidemiologic studies and some clinical trials, it has been suggested that people with the metabolic syndrome may benefit from intensive lifestyle modifications including dietary changes and adopting a physically more active lifestyle."

"During the last decades increasing scientific evidence has emerged that protective health effects can be obtained from diets that are rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains, and which include fish, nuts, and low-fat dairy products".

These results clearly stated that by changing the poor diet pattern to a healthy one accompanied by moderate exercise, metabolic syndrome can be reserved.

Furthermore, a healthy lifestyle in patients with metabolic syndrome also greatly improved the reduction of body weight.

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 root has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.

With an aim to find a natural ingredient or whole food for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, researchers assess the effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and/or components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) by searching the database of medical literature.

10 studies met the inclusion criteria with a total of 490 individuals were included in the review.

Ginger showed a significant beneficial effect on glucose control and insulin sensitivity.

Ginger significantly reduced fasting blood glucose in T2DM patients (-21.24; 95% CI: -33.21, -9.26; P < 0.001) and three-month average plasma glucose concentration.

Furthermore, ginger also displayed significant effects of improvement of lipid profile.

Dr. Zhu J, the lead scientist said, in the final report "Based on the negligible side effects and obvious ameliorative effects on glucose control, insulin sensitivity, and lipid profile, ginger may be a promising adjuvant therapy for T2DM and MetS".

Moreover, in order to gain more evidence of ginger anti-metabolic syndrome effect, a study to determine the individual and concomitant effect of 6-weeks water-based exercise and oral ginger supplement on markers that have related to metabolic syndrome and systemic inflammation in obese women with breast neoplasms was conducted the University of Mazandaran.

40 women diagnosed with breast neoplasms were randomly assigned into four groups; placebo, exercise training, a ginger supplement, and exercise training+ ginger supplement groups.

Participants in the ginger supplement group and the exercise training+ ginger supplement group have orally received 4 capsules, 7 days a week and for 6 weeks.

During the experiment, the ginger supplementation and the water-based exercise have resulted in a reduction of hs-CRP, IL-10 (inflammation), insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG); but an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and ratio HDL/LDL.

These results strongly suggested that ginger supplement plus exercise demonstrates a significant effect in reducing the fasting glucose, insulin resistance, inflammation, and lipid profile and balanced the ratio of high and low-density lipoproteins.


In other words, the water-based exercise and ginger supplement group significantly showed a larger positive effect on all outcomes, compared to the water-based exercise or ginger supplement alone groups.

The findings suggested that obese breast neoplasms survivors' metabolic syndrome and elevated inflammation were totally inhibited by the application of ginger supplement plus exercise training.

Taken together, ginger, the pungent spice can be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome accompanied by moderate exercise without inducing any adverse effects.

#Berry #Anthocyanins-Enriched (ACE) #Extracts Inhibits #βAmyloidAggregation through #FreeRadical Scavenging Activity, Researchers Show

Kyle J. Norton

Amyloid beta (Aβ or Abeta) is the main component of the amyloid plaques that cause the gradual death of neurons, leading to the onset of Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease is a common form of dementia or neurodegenerative disease found in the elderly.

Alzheimer's disease is a type of dementia correlated with major reductions of neurons to the respective target areas, named after German physician Alois Alzheimer.


According to the statistics, the disease is most prevalent in the elderly. Approximately 5.7 million Americans of all ages are living with Alzheimer's. 15.9 million family caregivers provide an estimated 18.2 billion hours and $230 billion to people with dementia worldwide.

Alzheimer's disease is caused by a combination of genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors that affect the neurons of the brain over time. However, less than 10% of patients with AD are associated with a genetic preposition. Patients with such mutated genes on chromosomes 21, 14, and 1 are virtually guaranteed to develop the disease.

More precisely, Alzheimer's disease is caused by the gradual loss of neuron functioning that usually starts with the early symptom of the difficulty of remembering recent events and worsens over time.

Alzheimer's destroys brain cells, causing cognitive modalities severe enough to affect language communication, memory, lifelong hobbies, or social life. Alzheimer's gets worse over time, and it is fatal.

Dementia is a group of neurodegenerative diseases caused by a decline in mental ability in the older population that is severe enough to interfere with daily life, such as memory loss.

Compared to dementia, neurological disorders are a class of brain diseases associated with reduced function of the brain, depending on the region of the neurons that were affected.

Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi said, "The inheritance of AD exhibits a dichotomous pattern. On one hand, rare mutations in APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2 virtually guarantee early-onset (<60 years) familial AD, which represents ∼5% of AD. On the other hand, common gene polymorphisms, such as the ε4 and ε2 variants of the APOE gene, can influence susceptibility for ∼50% of the common late-onset AD".

And, " These four genes account for 30%–50% of the inheritability of AD".

Cranberry is an evergreen dwarf shrub, genus Vaccinium, belongings to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern America and Southern Asia. Because of its health benefits, cranberry has been cultivated in some parts of the world for commercial profit and used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat wounds, urinary disorders, diarrhea, diabetes, stomach ailments, and liver problems.

In finding a potential compound for the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders, researchers examined the effect of cranberry extract (CE) on Alzheimer's disease (AD)associated with the aggregation and toxicity of proteins β-amyloid (Aβ).

The study is to compare the effects of berry crude extracts (CE) that yield anthocyanins-free (ACF) and anthocyanins-enriched (ACE) extracts.

According to the tested analysis, the berry ACEs (at 100 μg/mL) showed superior free radical scavenging, reactive carbonyl species trapping, and anti-glycation effects, compared to ACFs.

Furthermore, the berry ACEs at a dose of 100 μg/mL inhibited both thermal- and reactive carbonyl species (methylglyoxal; MGO)-induced Aβ fibrillation associated with the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

In BV-2 microglia, the berry ACEs at a dose of 20 μg/mL reduced H₂O₂-induced reactive oxygen species production and lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide species.

Based on the findings, researchers said, "The free radical scavenging, reactive carbonyl trapping, anti-glycation, anti-Aβ fibrillation, and microglial neuroprotective effects of these berry extracts warrant further in vivo studies to evaluate their potential neuroprotective effects against AD.".

Taken altogether, berries including cranberry processed abundantly anthocyanins may be considered remedies for the prevention of β-Amyloid Aggregation against the onset of AD, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Infectious diseases are medical conditions 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 with antibiotics.

A fungus is a primitive organism, including mushrooms, mold, and mildew, found in the air, in the soil, on plants, and in water.

Fungi reproduce through tiny spores in the air if you inhale the spores, it may spread to cause a fungal infection that often starts in the lungs or on the skin.

People with a weakened immune system are more likely to be infected by fungi, including the fungus Aspergillus which causes lung infection.

Similar to other bacteria, there are millions of different fungal species on Earth, but only about 300 are known to infect people.

Conventionally, a fungal infection also is treated with antibiotics, including topical antifungal ointments or oral medications, depending on the severity of the disease.

On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, scientists examined the effects of Chinese pinto bean lectin (CPBL), a 58-kDa dimeric glucosamine-binding protein anti-fungal activity.


The pinto bean is also known as the 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 purified lectin on six fungal species including Phyllosticta citriasiana, Magnaporthe grisea, Bipolans maydis, Valsa mali, Mycosphaerella arachidicola, and Setosphaeria turcica,
* Only the mycelial growth of V. mali was reduced by 30.6 % by the lectin at 30 μM.

* The lectin was able to suppress the proliferation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma HONE-1 cells, with an IC50 of 17.3 μM.

In additional analysis of the lectin activity, researchers wrote, " A few plant lectins demonstrate antifungal activity against V. mali, and not many others have inhibitory effects on HONE-1 cells, CPBL is a distinctive lectin which may be exploited for development into an agent against V. mali and HONE-1 cells".

Taken together, Pinto beans may process antioxidant and cytotoxic properties against diseases associated with a fungal and viral infection, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Ashwagandha (WS) Supplementation Ameliorates All Parameters Associated With the Induction of Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO)

Kyle J. Norton

Stroke is a condition in which the brain function is interrupted rapidly due to the loss of blood supply as a result of the blockage of blood such as thrombosis and arterial embolism, or leakage of blood causes the death of brain cells, according to the article of Mitochondria, oxidative metabolism, and cell death in stroke by Sims NR, Muyderman H (September 2009).
In other words, stroke can be caused by either ischemia, due to lack of blood flow, or hemorrhagic, due to bleeding.

A stroke is a medical emergency. Early intervention in most cases can minimize brain damage and potential complications.

There is a general belief that stroke is an accumulation over a long period of an unhealthy diet with red meat and processed meats in the induction of artery-clogging.

Some researchers suggested that increased intake of fruits and vegetables such as carrots accompanied with good fats such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel may have a substantial effect in reduced inflammation in the arteries, improved blood flow, and decreased the chance of blood clots.

Sadly, stroke is one of the most common causes of death worldwide.

In the US, according to statistics, approximately 800,000 people suffer a stroke of which 600,000 of these are first attacks, and 185,000 are recurrent attacks. Nearly three-quarters of all strokes occur in people over the age of 65.

Stroke is also the third leading cause of death. Approximately 1/4 of all stroke victims die as a direct result of the stroke or its complications.

Ashwagandha also 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, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean.

The herbal medicine has been considered as Indian ginseng and used in Ayurvedic medicine for 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 of disease associated with plaque accumulated on the arterial wall, researchers examined the effects of Withania somnifera (WS), supplementation on middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) induced mitochondrial dysfunctions in an experimental model of ischemic stroke.

According to the tested analysis, before treatment with WS, tested mice showed an ischemia-reperfusion injury, leading to the increase of the oxidative stress indicated by increased reactive oxygen species and protein carbonyl levels, and low levels of antioxidant enzymes.

The untreated mice also exerted decreased antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase activity, along with a reduction in GSH levels and the redox ratio, impaired mitochondrial functions, and enhanced expression of apoptosis markers.

Ischemia-reperfusion injury in the tested mice also induced mitochondrial dysfunctions.

Moreover, the levels of pro-inflammatory and apoptotic proteins were also increased in the untreated mice. The Y maze test also indicated a significant impairment in cognitive functions in the tested animal.

However, WS pre-supplementation ameliorated all parameters associated with the induction of MCAO such as oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunctions, apoptosis, and cognitive impairments.

Based on the evidence, researchers said, "WS pre-supplementation in ischemic stroke and are suggestive of its potential application in stroke management".

Taken altogether, Ashwagandha may be considered a supplement for stroke management, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Tocopherols with #Curcumin Inhibit Liver Toxicity Markers Through Its Antioxidant Activity in Vivo

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 that aids digestion, builds cell membranes, and produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.

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

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

Some researchers suggested overweight and obese and congenital diseases such as Hemochromatosis and Wilson’s disease also are prevalent risk factors for 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.

Sadly, 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.

Symptoms of liver diseases include persistent jaundice and gastrointestinal discomforts, abdominal pain, and swelling, leg and ankles swelling, itching, and pale color of stool.

The hepatoprotective effect is the action of the prevention of the liver against liver damage or toxicity.

Liver toxicity is a condition caused by the accumulation of toxins in the liver, leading to liver dysfunction or reduced liver function.

Acute liver toxicity is caused by short-term exposure to toxic chemicals such as an overdose of medication.

Chronic liver toxicity is due to long-term exposure to toxic substances including excessive alcohol drinking and long-term use of certain medicines.

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.

In finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of liver diseases, researchers examined the protective role of curcumin and α-tocopherol against oxidative stress-induced hepatotoxicity in rats upon cisplatin treatment.

The study included male Wistar rats that were divided into five groups (n = 5),
* Pre-treated with a single dose of α-tocopherol (250 mg/kg b.w.), curcumin (200 mg/kg b.w.), and combined α-tocopherol with curcumin, respectively, for 24 h prior to the administration of cisplatin.

* The Saline and Cis groups, injected with normal saline and cisplatin [20 mg/kg body weight (b.w.)],
* Cis + α-tocopherol group,

* Cis + Cur group, and

* Cis + α-tocopherol + Cur group.

According to the analysis after 72 h of the first injection, * Cisplatin revealed a significant increase in hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and a significant reduction of hepatic superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase activities compared to the saline group.

* Cis elicited a marked increase of the serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, the liver stress markers, and demonstrated the liver pathologies including liver congestion.

* Cis demonstrated a significant increase in NADPH oxidase gene expression compared to the saline group.

* Pre-treatment with combined curcumin and α-tocopherol improved the liver enzymes, lipid peroxidation biomarker, liver histopathology, and gene expression of liver NADPH oxidase in cisplatin-treated rats.

In other words, pretreatment with curcumin and α-tocopherol inhibited the adverse effects induced by the treatment of Cis.

After talking other factors into account, researchers said, "Pre-treatment with combined curcumin and α-tocopherol can protect cisplatin-induced hepatotoxicity including the biochemical, histological and molecular aspects".

Taken altogether, tocopherols may be considered an adjunct therapy in the prevention of liver toxicity, pending 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.

#Herbal #Angelica Inhibits #BloodStasisSyndrome (BSS) in Vivos, Researchers Find

Kyle J. Norton

Blood is body fluid that delivers necessary nutrients and oxygen to the cells and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells.
The heart formed part of the circulatory system is a muscular organ that pumps blood through the blood vessels to nourish the body tissues and organs.

The circulatory or cardiovascular system delivers nutrients and oxygen to all cells in the body, consisting of the heart and the blood vessels in the body.

More precisely, there are 2 types of large vessel
* The arteries carry blood away from the heart.

*The veins carry the blood back to the heart.

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. High blood pressure means raising the pressure in your heart and staying high over time, damaging the body in many ways.

Most cases of heart dysfunction are associated with the reduced function of the heart muscle, leading to reduce blood flow that facilitates heart failure and the backup of blood into the lungs or rest of the body.

Heart disease is a condition in which the heart's inner lining of blood vessels is served damage which can impede the function of transportation of oxygen and nutrition of the heart to other cells and organs in the body.

Every day, more than 2,000 Americans die as a result of heart disease. Approximately 60 million Americans have heart disease.

Believe it or not, 1 in 4 women in the US dies from heart disease and coronary heart disease.

The most common heart diseases associated with blood circulation are
* Heart diseases are affected by the arteries to the heart, such as coronary heart disease.
which is a condition of blockage of blood flow in the arteries, as a result of the hardening arterial wall, cholesterol building up, chemicals, such as cadmium clogging up arteries, etc. causes of narrowing coronary arteries.

* Heart diseases are affected by heart valve function in regulating blood flow such as valvular heart disease.

According to the statistics, heart disease is the leading cause of death in the US, approximately 610,000 people die of heart disease every year.

In finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of heart diseases, scientists examined the alcohol (Jiu Danggui, JDG) and charred DG are the main processed products of Angelica sinensis (Danggui, DG) on blood stasis syndrome (BSS).

Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China.

The herb has been used as a Queen herb in traditional Chinese medicine antispasmodic and vasodilatory agent, and to balance the hormones in women for a normal menstrual cycle and menstruation and strengthen the heart, spleen, kidneys, and liver for both men and women, etc. In other words, it is used to treat gynecological ailments, fatigue, mild anemia, and high blood pressure. It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, etc.

According to the analysis of the results of hemorheology, coagulation function parameters, and metabolomics,
* In the BSS model, JD demonstrated the best in DGPPs intervention in significant relief of rats' BSS.

* DGPP intervention showed different degrees of reverse effect on these metabolites associated with the expression of the syndrome in the tested model, and

* JDG was found to be the most effective owing to the extensive regulation effect on differential metabolites.

Based on the results, researchers suggest, "This study provides a reference for understanding the pathological mechanism of BSS and the mechanism of DGPPs, which lays a theoretical foundation for the rational use of DGPPs in clinical practice".

Taken together, Dandelion may be considered a remedy for the treatment of blood stasis syndrome (BSS), pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#HealthyVeggie #Broccoli and #Cabbage (B&C) Inhibits Levels of Hyperlipidemia in Hypercholesterolemic Pateints, Researchers Say

Kyle J. Norton

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 American and the condition is increasing at an alarming rate due to overweight and obesity.

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.

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, and produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.

Cholesterol can either be produced by the liver or consumed from food sources. There are 2 types of cholesterol
*The high-density lipoprotein also known as "good" cholesterol processes a function to return cholesterol to the liver.

* The low-density lipoprotein is also known as "bad" cholesterol processed a function aforementioned health benefits in a moderate amount.

In a healthy individual, the bad cholesterol is returned to the liver.

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

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

In finding a potential plant that processes anti-anti-hyperlipidemia, researchers examined the serum LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering effects of two types of canned beverages containing mixed green vegetables and fruits, with or without broccoli and cabbage (B&C).

The randomized double-blind study design included 77 adult subjects with mild to moderate hypercholesterolemia (Forty-nine out of 77 subjects, whose LDL-C levels were greater than or equal to 140 mg/dl and less than 180 mg/dl) were randomly divided into groups either by a placebo sample made from the same materials but without B&C. The subjects were administered 2 cans of 160 g contents/can) per day for 12 weeks.

According to the results of the experiment,
* Serum LDL-C levels in the test group were significantly reduced at 3, 6, and 9 weeks after administration in comparison to the baseline levels (155.7 mg/dl on average).

* The average LDL-C value at 9 weeks was 142.5 mg/dl and the reduction rate was 8.5% compared to serum LDL-C levels in the control group that were not significantly reduced.

* Significant differences(p < 0.05) between the groups were observed in the LDL-C levels at 6 and 9 weeks and also in the total cholesterol levels at 9 weeks.

Collectively, researchers said, "Intake of the beverage tested containing B&C is useful for lowering serum LDL-C levels in hypercholesterolemic subjects".
