Infection is a condition that leads to inflammation caused by the invasion of a microbial organism on body tissues
The bacterial infection is the infection caused by bacteria. Most cases of bacterial infection are treated with antibiotics. However, bacteria are very adaptable, overuse of antibiotics has made many of them resistant to antibiotics.
There are trillions of strains of bacteria in the world, but only a few of these cause diseases in humans. Some of them live inside our gut.
The most common symptoms of bacterial infection include redness and heat, swelling, fever, and pain at the site of infection.
In severe cases, the patient may also experience symptoms of swollen lymph glands.
Most cases of bacterial infection can be treated successfully if the types of bacteria that cause the infection are identified.
There are many risk factors associated with the onset of bacterial infection, some researchers suggested that people with a weakened immune system may increase the prevalence of bacterial infection.
Dr. Doyon PR, the lead scientist wrote, "Patients with a weakened immune system due to immunosuppressive treatment are at increased risk of infection with Streptococcus pneumonia".
And, " in patients treated with immunosuppressive medication and compared to controls, the initial serologic response to the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) and pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV) is impaired. Moreover, this impaired response was more profound after PCV than after PPSV".
The cucumber plant is a species of Cucumis Sativus, belongs to the family Cucurbitaceae, and is native to Western Asia. It is a creeping vine with roots in the ground and grows up with the support of frames.
With an aim to find a natural antibiotic for the treatment of bacterial infection, researchers compared the effect of potassium phosphite (KPhi) and chitosan on Cucurbitacin E (CuE) concentration in different tissues of Cucumis sativus against E.coli PTCC 1399 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PTCC 1430 bacterial strains.
The experiment includes
* Group1. Leaves were sprayed with distilled water (Control),
* Group 2. The leaves were solely treated with potassium phosphate (KPhi),
* Group 3. Leaves were solely sprayed with chitosan (Chitosan), and
* Group 4. Leaves were treated with KPhi and chitosan (KPhi + chitosan).
Where the KPhi (2 g L-1) and chitosan (0.2 g L-1) were applied twice every 12 h for one day. Fruits, roots, and leaves were harvested 24 h later.
According to the results of antibacterial activity in each group, the highest level of CuE was found in fruit (2.2 g L-1) of plants under concomitant applications of KPhi and chitosan.
In other words, under the infected stage, fruit extract exhibited the highest potential for activity against E. coli PTCC 1399 (with a mean zone of inhibition equal to 36 mm) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PTCC 1430 (with a mean zone of inhibition equal to 33 mm).
Based on the findings, researchers concluded, "KPhi and chitosan can induce production of CuE compound and increase the antibacterial potential of cucumber plant extract".
Additionally, researchers in the examination of cucumber seed's antibacterial effect also found that besides acting as natural antibiotics without affecting nearby healthy cells, cucumber seed also has strong activity in improving good bacteria in the gut.
Precisely, cucumber seed enhanced the total number of gut bacteria and altered the abundance of specific bacterial phylum or genera.
Taken altogether, cucumber and its bioactive compound cucurbitacin B (CuB) may be used for the treatment of bacterial infection, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of CuB in the form of a supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

#GreenPeas Supplement Improves the Digestive Functioning, Researchers Say
Kyle J. Norton
An inflammatory bowel (IBD) disease is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases associated with the gastrointestinal tract, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.
Ulcerative colitis has been found to induce chronic inflammation and ulcers in the inner lining of the large intestine (colon) and rectum, causing diarrhea, often with blood or pus, abdominal pain, cramping, rectal pain, and bleeding, and urgency to defecate.
Crohn's disease is a type of IBD associated with the inflammation of the lining of the digestive tract, leading to symptoms of frequent, recurring diarrhea, rectal bleeding, unexplained weight loss, and fever.
and abdominal pain and cramping.
According to the statistics, provided by the CDC in the US, IBD affects over 1.3% or 3 million US adults including Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis in 2015.
The most common symptoms of IBD include diarrhea, fever, fatigue, abdominal pain, and cramping, loss of appetite and unintended weight loss, and blood in the stool.
Conventionally, most cases of IBD are treated with anti-inflammatory medicine, immune suppressor or antibiotics, and drugs that reduce symptoms, depending on the severity of the conditions.
Most cases of IBD have been found in older adults in the age of 45 years or older.
Dr. Danielle Nimmons and Jimmy K Limdi said, "The incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are increasing globally. Coupled with an aging population, the number of older patients with IBD is set to increase. The clinical features and therapeutic options in young and elderly patients are comparable but there are some significant differences".
And, "In addition, age-specific concerns such as co-morbidity; loco-motor and cognitive function, poly-pharmacy and its consequences need to be taken into account. In applying modern treatment paradigms to the elderly, the clinician must consider the potential for more pronounced adverse effects in this vulnerable group and set appropriate boundaries maximizing benefit and minimizing harm".
Green peas are species of Pisum Sativum belongings to the family Fabaceae and native to western Asia from the Mediterranean Sea to the Himalayas Mountains. The pea is a green, pod-shaped vegetable and a cool-season crop grown in many parts of the world.
On finding a potent ingredient for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, researchers investigated the impact of green pea (GP) supplementation on the susceptibility of high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis.
The study included 6-week-old C57BL/6J female mice fed a 45% HFD or HFD supplemented with 10% GP. for 7 weeks before colitis was induced by adding 2.5% DSS in drinking water for 7 days followed by a 7-day recovery period.
Based on the tested analysis, BP supplement showed a significant effect in ameliorating the disease index score in HFD-fed mice during the recovery stage by reducing neutrophil infiltration and chemokine associated with a pro-inflammatory response.
Furthermore, pro-inflammatory markers in the tested mice such as interleukin (IL)-6, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-17, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were also inhibited by the administration of GP supplement.
Moreover, the mucin 2 content and goblet cell differentiation markers associated with the protection of digestive functioning were significantly increased by the GP supplement.
Additionally, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induced by the 2.5% DSS that causes digestive cell dysfunction was inhibited by the GP application.
Based on the findings, researchers wrote, "GP supplementation ameliorated the severity of DSS-induced colitis in HFD-fed mice, which was associated with the suppression of inflammation, mucin depletion, and ER stress in the colon".
Taken altogether, green peas may be considered a functional food for the prevention of inflammatory bowel disease, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Mustards Inhibit the Risk of Chronic Diseases through Their Antioxidants and Anti-Chemical Toxicity Activity, Studies Suggest
Kyle J. Norton
Chronic diseases are a group of medical conditions most commonly associated with aging, including
seizures, and obesity.
Nutrigenomic activity is a scientific term that optimizes the interaction of nutrition and genes, especially in the prevention or treatment of disease.
In other words, the nutrigenomic activity provided information on how the interaction of certain foods with specific genes leads to the increased risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, stroke, and certain cancers.
Biologically, nutrigenomics also provided information molecularly how chemicals found in the diet altered the expression of genes that affect individual health.
More precisely, nutrigenomics is depending totally on an individual's genetic makeup.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, chronic diseases also are the major driver of healthcare costs, accounting for nearly 75 percent of aggregate healthcare spending and increasing absenteeism that impact workforce patterns.
Each chronic patient has cost health care spending $5300 annually.
Believe it or not, chronic diseases in the US, chronic diseases are responsible for 7 out of 10 deaths yearly. In other words, chronic diseases kill more than 1.7 million Americans each year.
According to the joint study led by Fordham University, chronic diseases are among the most prevalent and costly health conditions in the US, affecting over 133 million of the US population as many of them suffer from at least one chronic disease and the number is growing in a rapid rate.
Some chronic diseases such as cancer have been found to be the leading causes of hospitalization, long-term disability, reduced quality of life, and death.
The World Health Organization suggested that unhealthy diet and excessive energy intake, physical inactivity, and tobacco use are some of the most common causes of chronic diseases.
In other words, an unhealthy diet and physical inactivity raised blood pressure, raised glucose levels, abnormal blood lipids (particularly low-density lipoprotein – LDL cholesterol), and overweight (body mass index ≥25 kg/m2) and obesity (body mass index ≥30 kg/m2) are some of the most common prevalent factors found in patients in the Western World.
Other risk factors associated with the risk of chronic disease also including excessive alcohol drinking, infectious agents, and some environmental factors such as air pollution, which contribute to asthma and other chronic respiratory diseases.
Some researchers suggested by changing unhealthy lifestyle patterns, chronic diseases may be preventable.
Dr. Walter C. Willett, the lead scientist in the concern about the risk of chronic disease in poor lifestyle individuals wrote, "Several lines of evidence indicate that realistic modifications of diet and lifestyle can prevent most CAD, stroke, diabetes, colon cancer, and smoking-related cancers".
And, "Among U.S. adults, more than 90 percent of type 2 diabetes, 80 percent of CAD, 70 percent of stroke, and 70 percent of colon cancer are potentially preventable by a combination of nonsmoking, avoidance of overweight, moderate physical activity, healthy diet, and moderate alcohol consumption".
Mustard is a genus Brassica, belongings to the family Brassicaceae, native to the Himalayan region of India. The veggie has seen used in some forms in African, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, and soul food cuisine because of its popularity.
With an aim to find natural food that lowers the incidence of chronic diseases including different kinds of cancer, researchers examined the anti-cancer effects of sulfur-containing glucosinolates (GLSs)-secondary plant compounds from mustards, including isothiocyanates.
According to medical literature, ITCs promoted overall health in vitro and in Vivo. The phytochemical also exerted anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory properties by activating the redox-sensitive transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) involved in antioxidant expression. and phase II enzymes involved in drug metabolism.
Furthermore, administration ITCs also significantly ameliorate a severe inflammatory phenotype in colitic mice in vivo.
In other words, ITCs inhibited the risk of chronic disease through their antioxidants and anti-chemical toxicity activity.
Researchers after taking other factors into account wrote, "an epigenetic mode of action for Brassica-derived phytochemicals, the conduction of further studies would be recommendable to investigate if the beneficial effects of these compounds also persist during an irregular consumption pattern".
Taken together, mustards processed abundantly ITCs may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases, pending 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.

#Sulforaphane (SFN) Isolated from #BroccoliSprout Blocks the Production of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokine Associated with Degeneration of Cognition Iduced Depression
Kyle J. Norton
Depression is a common and serious psychological illness, that affects the physical and mental functions of patients, including the patients feeling, thinking, and acting.
Some patients with depression may feel sadness and/or a loss of interest in activities once enjoyed.
There is no exact cause of depression. Changes in hormone levels, medical conditions, stress, grief, or difficult life circumstances that initiate the change of brain chemistry in inducing depressive syndrome are some of the most prevalent factors found in patients with depression.
The most common symptoms of depression include sadness, hopelessness, guilt, change of mood, and loss of interest in friends, family, favorite activities, and sex.
In severe cases, some patients with depression also experience cognitive symptoms of trouble concentrating, making decisions, remembering, and thoughts of harming themselves.
According to the statistics provided by the Anxiety and Depression Association of Americans, major depressive disorder is the leading cause of disability in the U.S. for ages 15 to 44.3, affecting more than 16.1 million American adults, or about 6.7% of the U.S. population age 18 and older.
Conventionally, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the primary medication for the treatment of depression due to their relatively lower side effects compared to depressants. Other types of antidepression medication may include serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), typical antidepressants, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs).
Dr. Steven S. Clevenger and colleagues in examining the role of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in the relapse risk of major depressive disorder wrote, "According to the included studies, the relapse risk in adults was lower when SSRIs were combined with psychotherapy".
And, " the combination of SSRIs and cognitive behavioral therapy may effectively reduce relapse. Escitalopram appeared to yield better results and fewer side effects than did other SSRIs or SNRIs".
On finding a potent compound that processes depressant-like activity, researchers examined the effects of Sulforaphane (SFN), an isothiocyanate compound derived from broccoli on inflammation-related depressive symptoms.
In lipopolysaccharide, (LPS, 0.5 mg/kg) induced depression-like behavior in mice, pretreatment SFN showed a significant effect in the blockage of the increase in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokine (tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)) level and an increase in microglial activation of the brain associated with the inflammatory response by increasing the expression anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10.
Activation of microglia is a hallmark of brain diseases.
In the tail suspension test and forced swimming test, immotility caused by the LPS of the tested mice was also attenuated by the injection of SFN.
Degeneration of cognition in the brain caused by the alternation of the density of the proteins associated with the brain functioning due to the LPS was also restored by the SFN.
More importantly, dietary intake of 0.1% glucoraphanin (a glucosinolate precursor of SFN) food in the juveniles and adolescents has been found to prevent the risk of LPS-induced depression-like behaviors and dendritic spine changes in the brain regions in adulthood.
In other words, SFN isolated from the rich broccoli sprout exhibited depressant-like activity that was attributed to the anti-inflammatory property.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "supplementation of SFN-rich broccoli sprout could be a prophylactic vegetable to prevent or minimize the relapse by inflammation in the remission state of depressed patients".
Taken together, broccoli sprouts rich in SFN may be considered a functional food for the treatment of depression, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Conventionally, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the primary medication for the treatment of depression due to their relatively lower side effects compared to depressants. Other types of antidepression medication may include serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), typical antidepressants, and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs).
Dr. Steven S. Clevenger and colleagues in examining the role of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in the relapse risk of major depressive disorder wrote, "According to the included studies, the relapse risk in adults was lower when SSRIs were combined with psychotherapy".
And, " the combination of SSRIs and cognitive behavioral therapy may effectively reduce relapse. Escitalopram appeared to yield better results and fewer side effects than did other SSRIs or SNRIs".
On finding a potent compound that processes depressant-like activity, researchers examined the effects of Sulforaphane (SFN), an isothiocyanate compound derived from broccoli on inflammation-related depressive symptoms.
In lipopolysaccharide, (LPS, 0.5 mg/kg) induced depression-like behavior in mice, pretreatment SFN showed a significant effect in the blockage of the increase in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokine (tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)) level and an increase in microglial activation of the brain associated with the inflammatory response by increasing the expression anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10.
Activation of microglia is a hallmark of brain diseases.
In the tail suspension test and forced swimming test, immotility caused by the LPS of the tested mice was also attenuated by the injection of SFN.
Degeneration of cognition in the brain caused by the alternation of the density of the proteins associated with the brain functioning due to the LPS was also restored by the SFN.
More importantly, dietary intake of 0.1% glucoraphanin (a glucosinolate precursor of SFN) food in the juveniles and adolescents has been found to prevent the risk of LPS-induced depression-like behaviors and dendritic spine changes in the brain regions in adulthood.
In other words, SFN isolated from the rich broccoli sprout exhibited depressant-like activity that was attributed to the anti-inflammatory property.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "supplementation of SFN-rich broccoli sprout could be a prophylactic vegetable to prevent or minimize the relapse by inflammation in the remission state of depressed patients".
Taken together, broccoli sprouts rich in SFN may be considered a functional food for the treatment of depression, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Legume Inhibits the #CardioMetabolicRisk Associated with the Onset of #CardiovascularDiease, According to Study
Kyle J. Norton
Cardiometabolic risk is a condition that plays a critical role in developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular (CV) disease and diabetes mellitus.
Cardioprotection is a process including the use of substances associated with the preserve of the function and viability of cardiac muscle tissue by the reintroduction of oxygenic blood flow back to the tissues.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a group of conditions caused by the underlying damage of blood vessels and the heart.
More precisely, CVD can be coronary artery diseases (CAD) such as angina, myocardial infarction (commonly known as a heart attack), or stroke, depending on the location of the blockage or disruption,
According to the statistics provided by the American Heart Association, approximately 84 million people in the US live with some form of cardiovascular disease. The condition has also been found to cause the death of about 2,200 people a day.
Atherosclerosis is a medical condition caused by plaque accumulated on the wall of arteries, leading to the narrowing of the artery and reducing oxygen risk blood flow to the heart and brain.
Depending on the location of the blockage, if the reduced blood flow occurred in the brain, it will cause the death of the brain cells, leading to stroke.
However, if the reduced blood flow occurred in the heart, it will cause damage to the heart tissues, leading to heart disease.
The most common disease associated with atherosclerosis is coronary artery disease. Plaques are made up of cholesterol, calcium, and other chemical substances in the artery
Most people with atherosclerosis are asymptomatic at the early stage.
Diabetes is a medical condition characterized by insufficient insulin in the bloodstream. or insulins in the bloodstream are not used properly to convert glucose to energy.
Epidemiologically, diabetes is caused by either the beta cells in the pancreas died-off or insulin receptors with a function that uses insulin to convert glucose to energy clogged up by fat or cholesterol.
In a healthy individual, after eating, the rise of blood glucose triggers the production of insulin by the pancreas into the bloodstream After you eat, your blood sugar (glucose) rises. This rise in glucose triggers your pancreas to release insulin into the bloodstream that travels through the blood to your body's cells before converting glucose into energy or storing it to use later.
In other words, insulin is released by the pancreas joints with the Insulin receptors on the outer part of a cell that binds insulin in the blood to convert glucose to energy.
A legume is a plant in the family Fabaceae (or Leguminosae)cultivated around the globe for its seed or fruit. Legumes are commonly eaten around the world.
On finding a potent ingredient for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, researchers examined the effect of legumes including green beans on cardio-metabolic risk.
According to the study led by Dr. Malika Bouchenak, polysaccharides composition, and phytochemicals: bioactive compounds, including enzyme inhibitors, phytohemagglutinins (lectins) found in the legume show a significant activity to improve the cardio functioning against the risk of coronary heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and inflammation.
Additionally, all chemical compounds have been found to work synergistically or antagonistically by exerting interaction with other components of the diet to improve health and prevent diseases.
Particularly, the nutritional quality of legumes may contribute to cardiometabolic risk prevention.
However, the legume mitigating effects and the mechanism of their activities need to be further addressed by additional large sample size and multicenter study.

#Brassica Food Plants 3,3'-#Diindolylmethane (DIM) Inhibits Parameters Associated with the Onset of #CardiacHypertrophy, Studies Suggest
Kyle J. Norton
Hypertrophy is a process or condition that increases and growth of muscle cells by increasing the muscular size achieved through exercise.
Lifting weights is the most common way to increase hypertrophy.
In other words, hypertrophy is the enlargement of an organ or tissue from the increase in the size of its cells by increasing the number of contractile proteins in each muscle fiber.
There are two types of muscular hypertrophy including the growth of muscle contraction parts or myofibrillar and the increased muscle glycogen storage or sarcoplasmic.
Myofibrillar training improves strength and speed, compared to sarcoplasmic growth which sustains more energy in endurance athletic events.
Cardiac hypertrophy is a medical condition associated with the abnormal enlargement, or thickening, of the heart muscle.
The most common causes of cardiac hypertrophy are results of hypertension or valvular disease.
The condition can also be caused by athletic hypertrophy (a condition related to exercise, valve disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM), and congenital heart disease.
The most common symptoms are shortness of breath, chest pain, and palpitation, especially during exercise.
In finding a potential compound that attenuates cardiac H9c2 cell hypertrophy, researchers examined the effects of 3,3'-Diindolylmethane (DIM) is the major product of the acid-catalyzed condensation of indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a component of extracts of Brassica food plants.
The study was conducted using an in vitro model with 1 µM angiotensin II (Ang II) in cultured rat cardiac H9c2 cells, to observe the effects of DIM on cardiac hypertrophy.
According to the tested analysis, the optimal concentration of DIM for 6, 12, and 24 h. showed a significant effect on the atrial natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide, and myosin heavy chain β mRNA expression induced by Ang II in H9c2 cells.
In other words, DIM lower the blood pressure, promotes diuresis, natriuresis, vasodilation of the systemic and pulmonary vasculature, and reduction of circulating levels of endothelin and aldosterone and cardiac muscle contraction induced by Ang II in H9c2 cells.
Furthermore, H9c2 cells treated with DIM for 0, 15, 30, and 60 min induced by Ang II also improve the function of 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha-1 that regulates the activities of a number of key metabolic enzymes in protecting the cardiac cells from stresses in response to hypertrophic stimuli.
Based on the findings, Brassica food plants consist of DIM that may be used for the prevention of cardiac hypertrophy, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#CruciferousVegetables' Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C) Process Anti Proliferation and Induce Cell Cycle Arrest Against the Onset of Various Cancers Cells in Vitro, Scientists Suggest
Kyle J. Norton
Intake of cruciferous vegetables may reduce the risk of cancers, some scientists suggested.
Cancers are a group of chronic and medical diseases characterized by irregular cell growth in the body tissue caused by the change of DNA transcription of healthy cells.
Normal cells have the division of a limited cell cycle compared to a cancerous cell which can grow unlimitedly.
If an invasive tumor is growing too large, it can suppress the nerves and muscles surrounding them, leading persistent pain and other symptoms, depending on the locations.
The exact causes of cancer are unknown. Researchers do not know why people with the same health condition, are susceptible to the onset of the diseases, while others do not.
However, an unhealthy diet, such as eating processed foods and fast foods and lifestyles such as smoking, overweight, physical inactivity, and excessive alcohol drinking are some of the major causes of cancer.
Truly, according to the article written by the Telegraph, an unhealthy lifestyle is responsible for half of the onset of the cancers. And overweight or obese is a cause of 12 types of cancer.
Other prevalent risk factors of cancer are genetic mutation inherited from the parents, environment toxic chemicals, radiation, virus, hormone imbalance,... and chronic inflammatory diseases.
Besides the general symptoms such as lumps, loss of appetite, fatigue, tiredness, and unintended weight loss, patients with cancers also experience some symptoms totally depended on the location, types, and grade of infected tissues and organs,
Cruciferous vegetables are a group of vegetables belonging to the family Brassicaceae, including cauliflower, cabbage, cress, bok choy, broccoli, etc.
According to a recent study, indole-3-carbinol (I3C), a substance present in cruciferous vegetables suppressed the proliferation of different tumor cells, including those isolated from breast, prostate, endometrium, and colon cancers, in vitro.
Dr. Popolo A, the lead author suggested, the effect of the chemical compound in the treatment of various cancers may be attributed to the interference of cancer cell cycle division and expression of a diverse set of genes involved in cell differentiation.
Dr. Aggarwal BB and Dr. Ichikawa H. in the additional examination of the function of indole-3-carbinol (I3C) also found that application of the phytochemical also inhibited DNA-carcinogen abducted and new blood vessels involved cancer cell survival formation, suppressed free-radical production, and stimulated 2-hydroxylation of estradiol in the reduction of cell proliferative and estrogenic activity and
Furthermore, indole-3-carbinol and its derivatives not only exerted anti-cancer effects by restoring original gene formation but also inhibited free radicals production, ... but also interfered with the cancer cell cycle division phase to induce apoptosis.
Other chemical compounds found in the cruciferous vegetables, shown to possess potent antitumor and chemopreventive activity are sulforaphane (SFN), an isothiocyanate, and Allyl nitrile (3-butenenitrile).
Taking together, there is no doubt, cruciferous vegetables have exhibited anticancer activities, through many aspects.
Intake of cruciferous vegetables regularly is associated with reduced risk and treatment of various types of cancer.
However, further data collection on large example size and multi-center studies performed with human consumption of the whole food of cruciferous vegetables during the course of the disease will be necessary to complete the picture of cruciferous vegetables' anti-cancer possibilities.
