#BlackBean Inhibits the Risk of Colitis by Decreasing the Concentrations of Lipid and Various Circulating #ProinflammatoryCytokines

Kyle J. Norton


Black bean with abundant chemical constituents and fiber may be considered as functional foods for the prevention and treatment of colitis, a renowned institute indicated.

Colitis is a medical condition of inflammation of the inner lining of the colon.

Black bean, a small roughly ovoid legume with glossy black shells, genus Phaseolus, belongings to the family Fabaceae can be bought in most grocery stores all around the year in dried and canned forms. It is believed that black bean was first domesticated growth in South America.

According to the joint study led by the University of Guelph, in vivo, cooked whole-bean flours, with differing phenolic compound levels and profiles, showing a completed inhibition of colitis in a mouse model.


In C57BL/6 mice fed a 20 % navy bean or black bean flour-containing diet or an isoenergetic basal diet (BD) for 2 weeks before the induction of experimental colitis via 7 d dextran sodium sulfate (DSS, 2 % (w/v) in the drinking water) exposure, coincidentally, both groups exerted similarly beneficial and adverse effects in induced locally and systemically while aggravating colonic mucosal damage with unknown identity and systemic inflammation.

In the bean treatment group, the efficacy in ameliorated colitis may be a result of the inhibition of pro-inflammatory expressions, such as colonic inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-9, IFN-γ, and IL-17A) and increased anti-inflammatory IL-10.

In mice with colon inflammation triggered by high-fat diet (HD)-induced obesity, injection of black bean expressed significantly decreased the concentrations of lipid and various circulating proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in mice with HD-induced obesity, in attenuated change associated to colon inflammation.

Furthermore, mice treated with black bean also improved antioxidant status in reduced progression
of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the induction of oxidative stress.

Dr. Yook JS, the lead researchers said, "BAB ameliorates HD-induced disorders such as obesity and colitis by improving mucosal barrier protection and reducing endotoxemia, as well as by inactivating NF-κB to decrease the production of proinflammatory cytokines".

Taken together, the black bean may be considered as a functional diet in s reduced risk of colitis in high-risk healthy subjects and treatment of patients with colitis with little or no adverse effects.

#CruciferousVegetables Process A Strong Anti-Inflammatory Effect, According to Studies

Kyle J. Norton

Intake of cruciferous vegetables may be inversely correlated with the circulating proinflammatory levels of women.
In a total of 1,005 middle-aged Chinese women's studies, the consumption of cruciferous vegetables regularly is associated with lower circulating concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines.

Proinflammatory cytokines, also known as Interleukin (IL) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF), are secreted by the immune system to protect our body from inducing fever, inflammation, tissue destruction, etc.

Cruciferous vegetables are a group of vegetables belonging to the family Brassicaceae, including cauliflower, cabbage, cress, bok choy, broccoli, etc.

Further to the study, Sulforaphane (SFN) and Diallyl disulfide(DAFDs), the naturally occurring isothiocyanate found in cruciferous vegetables, in the highly metastatic B16F-10 melanoma cells exhibited the induction of apoptosis in the cancer cell line, through the involvement of proinflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin.

Dr. Pratheeshkumar P, the lead author of the study suggested, DADS induces caspase-dependent apoptosis through an induced cell death pathway in B16F-10 melanoma cells by activating...... and suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Other phytochemicals found the vegetables, such as 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM), a derivative of indole-3-carbinol, also expressed anti-proinflammatory effects through interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor.

In fact, chemical compounds found in the vegetable, not only inhibited the pro-inflammatory cytokines in the expression of chronic diseases and cancers but are also involved in other aspects, such as environment airborne particulate pollutants, according to the East Campus - Laurentian University.

#Betacyanins Found in #Beetroot Induce #BladderCancer Cell Apoptosis with Cell Death Programming

Kyle J. Norton

Cancer is a group of medical and chronic conditions characterized by irregular cell growth in the tissue of a specific organ in the body.

Most cases of cancer start in the cell on the surface of the inner lining tissue of an organ. After penetrating deeper layers and colonizing the entire organ, the cancerous cells can spread to the healthy tissue of other organs through lymph and blood.

The bladder is a hollow elastic organ in the center of the lower abdomen that collects urine from the kidneys and excreted them through the urethra.

Bladder cancer occurs when cell mass in the inner lining of the bladder forms a malignant growth or tumor. Bladder cancer developed in the bladder lining has also been found to spread through the bladder wall to nearby organs such as the prostate gland in men or the uterus in women.

Bladder cancer can be classified depending on its proliferation
* Superficial types of bladder cancer
The most recurrent type of bladder cancer has a characteristic of noninvasive. These types of bladder cancer can be controlled or removed by regular cystoscopy.

* Invasive types of bladder cancer
Invasive types of bladder cancer tend to spread after beginning in cells in the lining of the bladder. These types of cancer often require surgery by removing part or the whole bladder.

The exact causes of bladder cancer are not identified. However, smoking has been found to induce a substantial risk of bladder cancer incidence.

Dr. Neal D Freedman, the lead scientist wrote, "...the population attributable risk of bladder cancer for tobacco smoking is 50–65% in men and 20–30% in women and that current cigarette smoking triples bladder cancer risk relative to never smoking".


And, "Compared to a pooled estimate of US data from cohorts initiated between 1963 and 1987, relative risks for smoking in the more recent NIH-AARP cohort were higher, with population attributable risks for women compared to those for men".

Betacyanins are phytochemicals in the class of red and yellow indole-derived pigments, belonging to the group of Betalains, found abundantly in beets, chard, etc.

In finding a natural pigment for the prevention and treatment of cancer, researchers examined Betacyanins (BC) purified from beetroot (Beta vulgaris var. Rubra L.) tested, alone or in combination with vitexin-2-O-xyloside (XVX) from Beta vulgaris var. cicla L. in the proliferation rate in T24 bladder cancer cells.

According to the tested analysis,* Combination of BC and XVX exhibited a synergistic effect that inhibits proliferation in T24 cancer cells at 24 and 48 h but not after 72 h of incubation.

* The combination-induced apoptosis of T24 bladder cancer cells was observed by means of fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis by increasing the expression in caspases associated with cell death programming.

The inhibition of the bladder cancer cell line was found to enhance the expression levels of the pro-apoptotic gene and inhibit anti-apoptotic and survival proteins.

Extrinsically, the administration of BC increased the activity of caspase 8, a protein associated with the induction of apoptosis.

Interestingly, the XVX, BC, and their combination induced cancer cell death without exhibiting a cytotoxic effect on normal and healthy human cells.

Based on the findings, Dr. Scarpa ES, the lead scientist said, "the efficacy and the mechanisms of the action of BC and XVX, extracted from edible plants, and suggested that a diet or a nutrition supplement, enriched with these bioactive molecules, could be used in the prevention of human bladder cancer".

Taken together, betacyanins may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of bladder cancer, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

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

#NavyBeans Inhibit Lipid Parameters Associated with An Increased Risk of High Blood Cholesterol, Researchers Show

Kyle J. Norton

Cholesterol is a way substance produced by the liver or from food sources that plays an important role to build strong cell membranes and producing steroid hormone and vitamin D and aiding the digestive tract in absorbing the nutrients for our body needs.

Hyperlipidemia is also one of the conditions found in the cluster of metabolic syndrome.


In a healthy individual, excess cholesterol is returned to the liver after performing the aforementioned function by high-density lipoprotein or "good cholesterol".

However, a prolonged period of overexpression of abnormal blood cholesterol due to excessive consumption of fat or reduced levels of "good cholesterol" in the bloodstream can cause plaque building up on the arterial wall, leading to heart disease and stroke.

Depending on the choice of diet, your risk of high blood cholesterol can be increased or decreased.


The healthy ratio of blood cholesterol is 4 (low-density lipoprotein) to 1 (high-density lipoprotein).

If your ratio is lower than 4, you are considered to have a healthy blood-cholesterol ratio.


Hyperlipidemia is preventable. If you have high blood cholesterol, reducing bad fat intake accompanied by an increased intake of "good cholesterol" with moderate exercise can be helpful.


More precisely, by changing to a healthy diet and lifestyle with moderate exercise, you are at a lower risk of high blood cholesterol sometimes in the future (weeks or months, depending on the levels of blood cholesterol today).


People who follow the Western diet with a high in saturated and trans fat, red meat, processed food and low in fruits and vegetables and whole grains may have a substantially increased risk of abnormally high blood cholesterol.

According to the article "Western Diet and Heart Risk", the author wrote, "Western diets cause a third of heart attack deaths worldwide,” the Daily Mail reports. Western-style diets high in meat, fat, dairy, and salt put people at higher risk of a heart attack. According to the newspaper, a study has found that poor diet is responsible for 30% of the risk of heart disease".

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. It is now grown and consumed across the world, due to its numerous health benefits.

In finding a dietary source for the treatment of high blood cholesterol, researchers examined whether cooked navy bean powder (NBP) and/or heat-stabilized rice bran (RB) supplementation is tolerable, improves dietary fiber intake in children, and modulates lipid profiles.

The study included children aged 8 to 13 years at risk for CVD due to abnormal lipids. In other words, all participants were diagnosed with elevated cholesterol levels including total cholesterol ≥180 mg/dL and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) <60 mg/dL; low-density lipoprotein (LDL) ≥100 mg/dL and HDL <60 mg/dL; or non-HDL >100 mg/dL and HDL <60 mg/dL.


Participants received muffins or a smoothie daily that included 0 g NBP or RB (control), 17.5 g NBP, 15 g RB, or a combination of 9 g NBP + 8 g RB. Fasting blood was collected at baseline and week 4.

Only 38 children completed the trial, including n = 9 control, n = 10 NBP, n = 9 RB, and n = 10 NBP + RB groups.

Additionally, participants in the intervention groups significantly increased intake of NBP and RB at week 4 (p≤.01), particularly increased fibers in NBP and NBP + RB groups from baseline to week 4.

Based on the tested assays, HDL-cholesterol was higher in NBP-group participants compared to the control at week 4.

Although other lipid parameters also showed signs of decreasing, they are insignificantly due to the
shorter duration of the experiment (4 weeks).


In other words, higher daily intakes are needed for a longer duration to induce favorable changes across multiple serum lipid parameters.

Taken together, navy bean may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of high blood cholesterol, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Indicaxanthin Inhibits Pathways Associated wuth the Proliferation of the #Melanoma Cells in Vitro, According to Studies

Kyle J. Norton

The skin is the largest external organ that protects us against infection and physical trauma by guarding the underlying muscles, bones, ligaments, and internal organs.

Furthermore, the skin accompanied by liver and kidney detoxes toxins in the body
Melanoma is a type of skin cancer caused by the alternation of cell DNA in the pigment-containing cells known as melanocytes. Most cases of melanomas are found in the skin.

According to the statistics, approximately 120,000 new cases of melanoma in the US are diagnosed in a year. Skin cancer tends to spread along the skin in most cases, but also can grow down to the deeper layers of the skin.

At the advanced stage, skin melanoma can also travel a distance away to infect other healthy tissues through blood and fluid circulation.

Most common symptoms of melanoma skin cancer are
* Asymmetry
The mole on the skin is no longer symmetric as one half of the mole is different from the other half.

* Borders irregular
The border of the mole has become irregular, such as uneven or notched.

* Color
The color of the mole is different than other moles on the skin.

* Diameter
The mole is larger than other moles and evolved over time
Accompanied by pain, swelling, and bleeding in the affected skin

There are 3 main types of melanoma skin cancer, including
* Superficial spreading
This is the most common type of melanoma, accounting for over 70% of all cases. The cancer cell usually starts with a normal mole, but for whatever reason, it begins to change malignantly with irregular borders and color variations.

* Nodular type
This type of melanoma is more aggressive growth than superficial spreading and found most on the trunk, upper arms, and thighs. The nodular type of melanoma is usually detected as a lump with blue and black color.

* Acral melanoma
Acral melanoma is mostly founded on the hands, feet, and nail beds. The risk increases for people with darken-skin color.

* Lentigo malignant melanoma
Found mostly on the face of the elderly caused by great exposure to sunlight.

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.

With an aim to find a potent ingredient for the treatment of cancer, researchers investigated the effects of Indicaxanthin, against human melanoma both in vitro and in vivo.

According to the tested analysis, the growth of A375 cells was inhibited by the injection of the phytochemical

Furthermore, Indicaxanthin also induced apoptosis and decreased the invasiveness of A375 cells.

In other words, indicaxanthin effectively inhibits the proliferation of highly metastatic and invasive, and anti-apoptotic activity of the A375 cells.

In mice, induced melanoma, oral administration of Indicaxanthin also significantly reduced tumor development.

In additional differentiation of the anti-cancer activity of Indicaxanthin, researchers found that the efficacy of the bioactive compound was attributed to the inhibition of the NF-κB pathways associated with the antiproliferative effect of indicaxanthin.

Based on the results, researchers wrote, " indicaxanthin represents a novel phytochemical able to significantly inhibit human melanoma cell proliferation in vitro and to impair tumor progression in vivo".

Taken together, indicaxanthin may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of melanoma, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#BeetRoot Shows a Significant Cytotoxicity in Decreased the Growth Rate of #ProstateCancer Cells, Researchers Say

Kyle J. Norton

Prostate Cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth and multiplied disorderly in the prostate tissues.
Beet, best known as the beetroot or garden beet, belonging to the amaranth family, is a perennial plant with leafy stems growing to 1–2 m tall.

Red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) may have a profound effect in reduced risk and treatment of prostate cancer, some studies suggested.

According to the Howard University, red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) extract (B), approved by Food and Drug Administration and European Union, in drinking water may be safe and used as cancer chemopreventive effect in humans.

Intake of the extract showed a significant effect in reduced synergistic antiproliferative activity against prostate (PC-3) tumor cells of human origin.

When combined anticancer drug doxorubicin (D), the combination acted synergistically in the expression of cytotoxicity against prostate cancer at a ratio of 1:5.

In a total of 24 patients (mean age 68+/-8 years) with hormone-resistant and metastatic prostate cancer treated with taxan chemotherapy, given twice 10 g daily for 1 month of natural table beet products come from commercial service, intake of beet juice showed a significant effect in control of the progression of prostate cancer in promoted life expectancy and reduced toxicity side effect induced by conventional chemo-drug.

The efficacy may be contributed by the mediated activities of phytochemicals in the juice in the inhibition of inflammation through the expression of the production of antioxidants.

The study also suggested that moderate and permanent consumption of table beet products may favorably affect the life expectancy of prostate cancer patients.

Furthermore, in the testing extract of red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.), the FDA-approved red food color E162, against various cancer cell lines, researchers at Howard University found that the extract showed significant cytotoxicity in decreased the growth rate of the PC-3 cells, although lesser in compared to doxorubicin, a chemo medicine( (8.6% vs. 100%, respectively, at 29 µg/ml concentration of each, three-day test period).

The study also suggested that betanin, the major betacyanin constituent found in beetroot, may be phytochemicals responsible for the cytotoxicity.


These findings showed that beetroot may be used as a functional food to a reduced risk of early-onset and treatment of prostate cancer. And reduced adverse toxicity when used in combination with chemo drugs.

#Andrographis Inhibits Pathways and Metastasis Associated with an Increased Risk of #BreastCancer

Kyle J. Norton

Herbal Andrographis paniculata may be used as a therapeutic agent for treatment and drug resistance to breast cancer, a study by the renowned institute suggested.

Andrographis paniculata also known as Andrographis is a herbaceous plant, genus Andrographis, belonging to the family Acanthaceae, native to India and Sri Lanka, used in traditional Siddha and Ayurvedic in treating the common cold, flu, and upper respiratory infections, infectious diseases, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, pneumonia,...

Breast cancer (malignant breast neoplasm) is a condition characterized by abnormal cells growing in the tissues of the breast either from the inner lining of milk ducts (Ductal carcinoma) or the lobules (Lobular carcinoma).


In 2010, over 250,000 new cases of breast cancer were expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S. alone and the risk of getting invasive breast cancer during the lifetime of a woman is 1/8.

According to the joint study led by the University of Kalyani, Andrographolide showed significant inhibition of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell proliferation in a time- and concentration-dependent manner.

The study also found that the inhibition of breast cancer cell line proliferation with no effect on normal breast epithelial cells, through reduced oxygen species (ROS) production and increased the population of apoptotic cells.

Others, in the study of the cytotoxic effect of a chemical compound, 14-Deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide (14-DDA), a major diterpenoid isolated from Andrographis paniculata (Burm.f.) Nees, application of the products suppressed the T-47D breast carcinoma cells caused cytotoxicity, and elicited a non-apoptotic cell death.

Also in the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell, Andrographolide, a major chemical compound found in Andrographis exhibited strong anti-breast cancer cell growth activities in regulating breast cancer cell proliferation, survival and progression, and breast cancer metastasis through various mechanisms involving pro-inflammatory pathways.

Taking together, there is no doubt that Andrographis may be used as a possible chemopreventive and chemotherapeutic agent for human breast cancers, But a large amount of intake should only be prescribed by an herbalist.
