#Herbal Chaste Tree Berry Improves Hormone Expression in Natural and d-Galactose-Induced Aging, Researchers Say

Kyle J. Norton

Chaste tree berries may have a strong effect in reducing the risk of free radical progression in inducing various diseases, the renowned institute suggested.

Chaste tree berry is a species of Vitex agnus-castus, genus Vitex, belonging to the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region, used in herbal medicine for thousands of years as an aphrodisiac herb and considered a Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.

Antioxidants are chemical compounds with the function of inhibiting oxidation caused by the production of free radicals with an aim to reduce the risk of oxidative damage to our body.

According to the Faculty of Pharmacy, Ege University, in the observation of the chemical activity of different preparations of Chaste tree berry, researchers showed that water and ethanol extract content is far stronger antioxidant activity in compared to n-hexane extracts.

In vitro antioxidant assays, the newly differentiated ingredients isolated from the Chaste tree berry, EtOAc extract displayed a significant antioxidant property in reduced free radicals caused by brain homogenate. at the concentration-dependent effect tested by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrasyl (DPPH) free radical assay (IC(50) = 68 microg/mL) in compared fractions of MeOH-H(2)O and n-hexane fraction.

The study also suggested that the efficacy of the antioxidant effect in the extract may have resulted from the recently discovered phytochemicals, flavonoid constituents EtOAc extract, capsaicin, vitexin, and orientin as viewed in the tested essay.

More importantly, in support of the above differentiation, a study of mice subcutaneously injected with d-galactose (500 mg/kg/d for 45 days) induced aging and natural aging. administrated extract of Vitex (600 mg/kg/bid for 7 days by gavage) to 72 female NMRI mice (48 3-month-old normal mice and 24 18-24-month-old mice), weighing 30-35 g randomly divided into six groups: control, Vitex, d-galactose, Vitex + d-galactose, Aging, and Vitex + Aging, groups treated with chaste tree berry expressed a superior effect in restored estrous cycle and damage of uterus and ovarian tissues, through antioxidant activities in ameliorated oxidative stress and aging diseases.

Truly, mice treated with extract of Chaste tree berry only showed a reduced presence of free radicals but also improved hormone expression in natural and d-galactose-induced aging.

Taking together, there is no doubt that Chaste tree berries display a significant antioxidant potential in ameliorating the risk of free radicals in induced chronic diseases, but a large amount of intake should be taken with care.

#Fennel Inhibits Ulcerogenic Expression through its Antioxidant Activities, Researchers Find

Kyle J. Norton

Fennel may have a therapeutic and enhanced effect in improving the digestive system in absorbing nutrients and fluids from food intake, some scientists suggested.

The result of this efficacy was published online by several respectable institutes, including the University of Illinois at Chicago and Afyon Kocatepe University.

Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a plant species of the genus, belongings to Apiaceae (Umbelliferae), native to the Mediterranean, used in traditional and herbal medicine as warming, carminative, antispasmodic, antidepressant agent and to stimulate the appetite, ease indigestion, soothe coughing, reduce intestinal spasms, to regulate the menstrual cycle and relieve PMS,...


According to the study, researchers set out criteria and guideline to investigate the effect of fennel in the gram-negative bacterium Helicobacter pylori (HP), the microorganisms have been associated with the development of gastritis and peptic ulcer disease to confirm the theory used in traditional medicine fennel to treat a wide range of ailments, including gastrointestinal (GI) disorders such as dyspepsia, gastritis and peptic ulcer disease (PUD), application of methanol extracts of botanicals with a MIC of 50 microg/mL included Achillea millefolium, Foeniculum vulgare (seed), exerted a significant inhibitory effect against all susceptibility of 15 HP strains.


These results suggested that injection of fennel displayed potential in balancing the ratio of microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract, thus improve the function in absorbed and distributed nutrients to the body and reassured the herbal medicine used in practice for the treatment of numbers symptoms of
digestive disorder.

Furthermore, in an animal model with rat-induced gastric lesions by injection of ethanol, the application of aqueous extracts of Foeniculum vulgare (FVE) showed strong activity in inhibiting ulcerogenic expression through its antioxidant activities.

In observation of the efficacy of 60 minutes pre-administration of the doses of 75, 150, and 300 mg/kg, with famotidine, histamine H₂ receptor antagonist with function to inhibit stomach acid production, used at the dose of 20 mg/kg, before injection of ethanol, researchers found that

* Pre-treatment of all doses exerted a significant gastric protective effect in reduced injury and damage caused by the injection of ethanol.


* Fennel extract demonstrated a therapeutic activity linearly compared to other doses and control at a dose of 300 mg/kg


* These activities were associated with reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, a marker in the expression of severe levels of oxidative stress.

Additional analysis, also suggested that fennel stimulated the gastro-protect effect through its antioxidants and facilitated the production of antioxidants found in the body tissues in inhibited the overexpression of free radicals, thus maintaining the ratio of microorganisms in the digestive tract and its functioning.


After, taking into account other co and confounders, researchers also suggested that the result in part may also attributed to antioxidants in ameliorated lipid peroxidation.

The above differentiation was supported by the joint report led by the Joint Keio University in the investigation of fennel properties associated with functional dyspepsia (FD), a functional gastrointestinal disorder characterized by persistent or recurrent postprandial upper abdominal discomfort and epigastric pain.

Truly, Delayed gastric emptying and impaired gastric accommodation was found to play important roles in the development of FD.

Anethole (1-methoxy-4-((E)-propenyl)-benzene), a major component of fennel essential oil, in rodents, exerted a huge effect in improved clonidine-induced delayed gastric emptying without harming normal gastric emptying in mice, orally.

Also, the application of fennel oil plus Anchu-san (a Japanese herbal medicine containing anethole) also demonstrated an important activity in reducing the risk of functional dyspepsia (FD) by restoring delayed gastric emptying.

In other words, anethole processes a gastroprotective efficacy through stimulating gastric accommodation.
Taken together, whole fennel, fennel essential oil, and its bioactive compound anethole may be used as a secondary application in reduced risk and treatment of digestive disorder. Adding a portion of fennel to your diet may improve the digestive function in the absorption of nutrients and fluids from the food intake.


However, intake of supplements should be taken with extreme care as an overdose may cause acute liver toxicity.

#Chaste Tree Berry Exerts a Significantly #Osteoprotective Activity, Scientists Say

Kyle J. Norton

Chaste tree berry is found to be processability in reduced MALE osteopenia turnover, the early sign of osteoporosis, a renowned institution study reported.
Chaste tree berry is a species of Vitex agnus-castus, genus Vitex, belonging to the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region, used in herbal medicine for thousands of years as an aphrodisiac herb and considered as Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.

Osteoporosis is a condition of thinning of bone and bone tissues as a result of the loss of bone density over a long period of time.

In a total of 60, 3-month-old male rats orchidectomized and divided into five groups with each group either receiving soy-free food (C), estradiol (E), testosterone (T), or Vitex agnus castus in different concentrations (AC high/AC low) for 12 weeks, rats treated with Vitex agnus castus at highest dose displayed a recover of 88.4% of the trabecular bone area, 80.7% of the trabecular number and 66.9% of the number of trabecular nodes compared with other administrations.

The study also found out that Vitex agnus castus is more protective in treating osteoporosis in the male population compared female counterpart.


Dr. Sehmisch S, the lead author said, " Vitex agnus castus demonstrated osteoprotective effects in males. It preserves the cortical as well as the trabecular bone and might be a safe alternative for HRT".

Furthermore, In the study to compare a group of animals (n = 8) treated subcutaneously (s.c.) with 60 mg/kg of Vac essential oil once a day for 3 weeks and control animals (n = 8) received sterile olive oil s.c. by the same schedule, Vitex agnus-castus L. (Vac) essential oil-treated group also exerted a significant bone metabolism in 16-month-old male Wistar rats.

The osteoporosis protection can be observed through the lower Serum osteocalcin (OC) and calcium (Ca2+) in Vitex agnus-castus L. (Vac) essential oil and decreased bone turnover treated group in compared control in middle-aged male rats.

Taking together, Chaste tree berry showed strong support in the reduced early onset of osteoporosis of male gander through improved bone metabolism and calcium status, but further, large size and centers studies are necessary to validate this potency.

#Diphenylhydantoin and #Valproicacid Isolated From Chaste Tree Berry Process Anticonvulsant Activity, Researchers Show

Kyle J. Norton

Chaste tree berry is a species of Vitex agnus-castus, genus Vitex, belonging to the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region, used in herbal medicine for thousands of years as an aphrodisiac herb and considered a Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.

In a study using an animal model of maximal electroshock seizures (MES) and induced seizures (MES) by administrated pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), intake of ethanolic leaf extract of Vitex-negundo, at doses of 250, 500, and 1000 mg/kg p.o, exerted a significant of postictal depression, an altered state of consciousness after an epileptic seizure in the dose of 1000 mg/kg body weight in comparison to control but no effects in other applications.

At doses of (1000 mg/kg, PO), the ethanolic leaf extract exhibited a 50% half-life protection in chronic seizures after a 24-hour injection against PTZ-induced seizures. Researchers also found that the efficacy of the extract at that dose is the result of valproic acid, a major ingredient found in Chaste tree berries.

Dr. Tandon VR and co-author Dr. Gupta RK. of the study said, " The anticonvulsant activity of Vitex-negundo has not been found quite effective with standard drugs".


Furthermore, because the potentiation of diphenylhydantoin and valproic acid isolated Vitex-negundo displayed a significant effect in treating animal models, the extract may be used as an adjuvant therapy along with standard anticonvulsants.

Additionally, according to the Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences, hydrophilic extract of Vitex agnus castus fruit (Vitex) administered doses (60, 120, or 180 mg/kg) showed a strong anticonvulsant activity even at low doses (60 mg/kg) of Vitex by increasing the afterdischarge(AD) threshold and decrease the afterdischarge duration ( ADD) and stage 5 duration (S5D).


Promisingly, at the highest dose, the extract inhibited significantly the seizure stage (P<0.01) and reduced or prevented epileptic activity as demonstrated by the reduction of ADD and S5D (length of convulsion) in a dose-dependent manner.

More importantly, methanolic extract (ME) of the leaves of V. negundo also showed to process the analgesic properties and potentiated analgesia demonstrated by morphine and pethidine in protection against strychnine and leptazole-induced convulsions.

Taking together, Chaste Tree Berry may be one of the next-generation therapeutic herbal medicines that have a strong effect on the prevention and treatment of seizures as a result of abundant phytochemicals, but intake of the large amount should be taken with care to reduce the risk of toxicity.

#Herbal #Angelica Improves #Hyperglycemia, Glucose Tolerance and Plasma Insulin Levels in #Diabetes in Vivos, Researchers Say

Kyle J. Norton

Diabetes is a chronic condition caused by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream to regulate glucose.

In other words, diabetes occurs when cells in the pancreas dying off or receptor sites clogged up by fat and cholesterol. In some cases, diabetes is also caused by allergic reactions of cells in the immune system.

The most common symptoms of diabetes are excessive thirst and hunger, frequent urination, unintended weight loss or gain, frequent fatigue, irritability, and gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea.

Some patients may also experience symptoms of blurred vision and slow wound healing or ulcer.

Prediabetes is caused by unhealthy diets with high saturated fat, smoking, and excessive alcohol drinking. Therefore, understanding prediabetes is a very important issue for prediabetics, because with proper diets, quit smoking, control alcohol intake, and exercises, prediabetes can be reversed or delayed.

People with a glucose level between 111mg/dl-125 mg/dl are considered pre-diabetics

Hyperglycemia, a medical condition of abnormally high blood glucose, is a major concern, in people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Most cases of hyperglycemia occur in patients who do not manage their diabetes properly.

Hyperglycemia, a hallmark of diabetes has been found to induce diabetics complications, including neuropathy, nephropathy, and retinopathy).

According to statistics, diabetes is one of the most common diseases in the US. Approximately 10% or 29.1 million people in the United States have diabetes, accompanied by 8.1 million who are undiagnosed and unaware of their condition.

About 1.4 million new cases of diabetes are diagnosed in the United States every year. More than one in every 10 adults who are 20 years or older has diabetes.

The immune system is the set of cells and their activity against antigens or infectious agents that comprise the body's defense system against diseases.

Immunomodulatory activity is an action that improves the underactive immune function that is susceptible to the invasion of foreign microorganisms and inhibits the overactive immune system that causes autoimmune diseases.

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.

In finding an herbal medicine for the prevention and treatment of diabetes, researchers investigated the effects of the decoction HemoHIM on hyperglycemia and the immune response in diabetic mice.

Mice selected for the study were divided into nondiabetic and diabetic mice induced by a single injection of streptozotocin (STZ, 200 mg/kg, i.p.) orally administered HemoHIM (100 mg/kg) once a day for 4 weeks.
Diabetic mice with HemoHIM showed improved hyperglycemia and glucose tolerance as well as elevated plasma insulin levels with the preservation of insulin staining in pancreatic β-cells, compared to the diabetic control group.

Furthermore, HemoHIM treatment restored parameters associated with the onset of diabetes including thymus weight, white blood cells, lymphocyte numbers, and splenic lymphocyte populations (CD4(+) T and CD8(+) T), which were reduced in diabetic mice.

Moreover, HemoHIM also animalized the IFN-γ production associated with innate and adaptive immunity in response to Con A stimulation in facilitating mediated T cell proliferation.

Based on the results, researchers said, "HemoHIM may have potential as a glucose-lowering and immunomodulatory agent by enhancing the immune function of pancreatic β-cells in STZ-induced diabetic mice".

Taken altogether, Herbal Angelica is used in combination with other herbal medicines for the treatment of diabetes, pending to larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#GreenBeans Process A Strong Anti-Platelet Aggregation Activity, According to Studies

Kyle J. Norton


Platelet aggregation refers to the platelet-to-platelet adhesion in the blood that forms a clot.
Platelet aggregation plays a critical role in the protection of the body against blood loss due to injury or tissue damage.

However, activated platelets that stimulate blood clot formation have also been found to induce atherothrombotic disease.

Antiplatelet aggregation medicines, also known as platelet agglutination inhibitors are the types of medicine that process blood thinning properties.

In other words, antiplatelet aggregation medicines reduce the risk of blood clotting used in patients who have a high risk of cardiovascular disease such as aspirin.

Coagulation disorders or bleeding disorders are medical conditions that affect blood clotting activities. The most common diseases associated with coagulation disorders are Hemophilia, Von Willebrand disease, clotting factor deficiencies, hypercoagulable states, and deep venous thrombosis.
The most common causes of the bleeding disorder are found in patients with a lower red blood cell count
and vitamin K deficiency.

However, long-term use of certain medications has also been found to have side effects of bleeding disorders.

The most common symptoms of blessing disorder are unexplained and easy bruising, heavy menstrual bleeding in women, frequent nose bleeding, excessive bleeding from small cuts or an injury
and bleeding into joints.

Dr. Copplestone JA in investigating the bleeding and coagulation disorders in the elderly wrote, "Ageing does not bring with it any major changes in the coagulation or fibrinolytic proteins or platelets. It does bring a greater burden of disease, with fewer reserves, and so when hemorrhage occurs in the elderly it has more serious consequences".


And, " Drugs are a significant and potentially preventable cause of bleeding in the elderly. The most frequent problems arise with anticoagulants. The risk of interactions increases with the number of other medications that are prescribed".

Green bean is a genus of Phaseolus Sensu Stricto, containing 55 different species, belongs to the family Fabaceae, and is native to the New World tropics and grown in Europe for its attractive flowers and fleshy immature pods. It can be classified into two major groups, bush beans, and pole beans.

In finding the natural compound that processes anti-thrombosis, researchers examined the antiplatelet, anticoagulant, and fibrinolytic activity in vitro of extracts from selected fruits and vegetables.

The study compared the effect of extracts prepared from each sample including an aqueous (juice or pressed solubles) and/or methanol-soluble fraction. at a final concentration of 1 mg/ml from samples of 19 fruits and 26 vegetables, including green beans representative of the local diet.

Extracts of green beans showed an inhibited platelet aggregation induced by ADP and arachidonic acid, in a concentration-dependent manner, compared to other extracts.

Compared to methanolic extracts of grapes prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and diluted prothrombin time (dPT) and raspberry prolonged APTT are higher compared to those of green beans.

Taken together, green beans may be used as an adjunct therapy for the prevention and treatment of platelet aggregation, pending the confirmation of a larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#BrassicaVegetables Process #Probiotic Activity for the Promotion of Digestive Functioning, Researchers Suggest

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 it to other parts of the body.
The liver also produces cholesterol, a waxy substance which aids digestion, builds cell membranes, and produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.

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

Liver cancer is a medical condition characterized by cell growth irregularly in the liver tissue.

The causes of liver cancer are associated with the alternation of cells' DNA which normally begins in the cells on the surface of the inner lining.

Liver cancer at the early stage no not cause any symptoms. However, at the advanced stage, liver cancer cells can cause a wide range of symptoms including jaundice, abdominal swelling and pain, and dark urine and white stool accompanied by the general symptoms of cancers such as unintended weight loss, loss of appetite, chronic fatigue and tiredness and gastrointestinal discomforts.

The most common cause of liver cancer is infected by the hepatitis virus. However, in North America, due to the overexpression of the overweight and obese population, liver cancer may slowly progress from nonalcoholic fatty liver disease through cirrhosis to liver cancer.


In 2017, 2,500 Canadians were diagnosed with liver cancer and 1,200 Canadians died from liver cancer.

Compared to the early stage of other cancer, the 5 years survival rate in the early stage diagnosis is only 31%, and 43% of people with liver cancer diagnosed at stages 0 and 1.

Cabbage is a species of Brassica oleracea belonging to the family Brassicaceae (or Cruciferae), native to the Mediterranean region along the seacoast. The veggie has a short stem of which is crowded a mass of leaves, usually green but in some varieties, it may be red or purplish.

With an aim to find a natural food that inhibits cancer, researchers examined the bioactivity of synthetic and plant-derived 1-cyano-2,3-epithiopropane (CETP) - the predominant epithionitrile in Brassica vegetables in three human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) cell lines.

According to the formazan dye assays, the concentrations of 380-1500 nM CETP isolated from Brassica vegetables inhibited the mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity-induced cytotoxicity of human HCC cells without impairment of cell growth.

Furthermore, at 100-fold higher CETP concentrations, the bioactive induced cell death.

The presence of a plant matrix associated with oxidative stress increased CETP-based toxicity without exhibiting the epithionitriles in human health.


Taken together, Brassica vegetables may be considered probiotics for the promotion of digestive functioning, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
