The good news for the coffee lover is that your risk of diabetes is significantly reduced in comparison to the non-coffee-drinking population, a respectable researcher indicated
Coffee, a popular and social beverage worldwide, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roast beans from the coffee plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.
Diabetes is a medical condition characterized by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream to regulate glucose, either caused by 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 to cells in the immune system.
In the reviewed literature of 20 prospective studies with 1,109,272 study participants and 45,335 cases of type 2 diabetes included in the analysis with a follow-up duration ranging from 10 months to 20 years, coffee intake is inversely associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Compared with no or rare coffee consumption, the range of relative risk (RR; 95% CI) for diabetes significantly lower in all studies was 0.92, 0.85 0.75, 0.71, and 0.67 respectively for people who have 1-6 cups/day in all reviewed studies.
Both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee showed an insignificant difference in relative risk but inversely diabetic development in a dose-response manner.
According to Zhejiang University, coffee consumption reduces the risk of type II diabetes and may involve the expression of different mechanistic factors, including glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, insulin resistance, glucose-6-phosphatase, intestinal glucose absorption, antioxidant activity, inflammatory biomarkers, nuclear factor-κB inhibition, glucose uptake, glucose homeostasis, glucose metabolism, and insulin secretion.
Dr. Akash MS, the head researcher said, "The experimental and epidemiologic evidence presented here elucidate the protective effects of coffee consumption on T2DM, involving multiple preventive mechanisms".
Others, in the analysis of the risk of autoimmune diabetes with coffee intake in adults, proposed that although consumption of coffee showed an inverse association with type II diabetes through improving the production of high glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody, the general trend was weak.
The risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults is reduced even further with an additional cup of coffee per day. the study also indicated.
The findings suggested that coffee with caffeine or caffeine showed a strong protective effect against early onset of type 2 diabetes, and the risk of T2DM decreased even more for every cup/day increment in coffee intake, expressed by dose-response analysis.

#Herbal #Cinnamon Aqueous Extract Reduces the Risk of #Alzheimer's Diseases, Researchers Say
Kyle J. Norton
Adding spicy cinnamon into your diet may have a significant effect on blocking the onset of Alzheimer's Disease, a new study suggested.
Although cinnamon is best known for its anti-diabetic effect, spices also consist of certain chemical constituents associated with preventing insulin resistance(2).
The herb has been used in folk medicine as an anti-fungal and bacterial agent to improve the reproductive organ, prevent flatulence and intestinal cramping, and treat indigestion, diarrhea, bad breath, headache, migraine, etc.(3).
Alzheimer's disease is a brain disorder correlated with major reductions of neurons to the respective target areas, named after German physician Alois Alzheimer.
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.
According to statistics, over 25 million people in the world today are affected by dementia and most are suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
The exact causes of Alzheimer's disease are unknown. However, some researchers suggested that certain risk factors such as cigarette smoking, midlife high blood pressure and obesity, diabetes, cerebrovascular lesions, and psychosocial factors (high education, active social engagement, physical exercise, and mentally stimulating activity) are associated with the onset of the disease(10).
Some researchers suggested that people who are following lifelong intake of the Western diet and are at higher risk due to family history should be aware of some early signs and symptoms such as memory loss, the difficulty of planning and solving problems, completing familiar tasks, determining time or place, finding the right words, misplacing items often. ... and difficulty making decisions.
If you experience some signs and symptoms above, please make sure to check with your doctor to rule out the possibility.
In insulin resistance Winstar male rats induced by high fat/high fructose (HF/HFr), researchers found that injection of cinnamon (CN) alleviates the increases of mRNA associated with Alzheimer's such as PTEN, Tau, and amyloid precursor protein, through its neuroprotective activity associated with improved whole-body insulin sensitivity and related changes in the brain. (4).
The cinnamon aqueous extract has also been found to have the ability to inhibit tau aggregation in vitro and even induce dissociation of tangles isolated from AD brain, as well as sequestering highly reactive and toxic byproducts of oxidation, through protecting tau from abnormal modifications, according to the University of California(5).
PTEN is a tumor suppressor gene involved in the regulation of the cell cycle.
Tau protein is found in neurons of the central nervous system, and un-stabilized microtubules have been found in patients with Alzheimer's Disease.
Amyloid precursor protein plays an important role in the formation of synapses between neurons in the nervous system, shown to generate beta-amyloid (Aβ) in patients with Alzheimer's diseases
In cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease animal models, caused by the accumulation of soluble oligomeric assemblies of the β-amyloid polypeptide (Aβ), oral administration of the cinnamon extract (CEppt), enhanced the decrease of Aβ oligomers, reduction of plaques, and improvement in cognitive behavior(6).
Some researchers suggested that the spice may be used as amyloid-beta aggregation blockers as a few approved drugs available to treat Alzheimer's disease(9) due to many potential drugs in the pipeline for the disease and other amyloid-associated illnesses may not be as promising as thought(8).
Taken together, cinnamon and its extract may have a protective effect in reducing risk and for treatment of Alzheimer's Disease, through reduction of the complications caused by metabolic syndromes such as obesity and diabetes.
According to DR. Georgakopoulou EA(7), Oral intake of Cinnamon may cause Stomatitis and a burning sensation in the mouth with a large amount. According to traditional Chinese medicine, overdoses of cinnamon can be toxic and damage the liver(1)(7).

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

9 Foods Which Promote the Growth of Fungus Candida, Scientists Say
Kyle J. Norton
Candida albicans are members of a large group of microorganism whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within the membranes, including yeast(2)(3), fungi(4)(5)(6), and mold(6) that live among the gut flora in the human mouth and gastrointestinal tract.
Non-albicans Candida (NAC) species cause 35-65% of all candidaemias in the general patient population(1).
According to joint study, in many cases, biofilm(microorganisms with cells stick to each other on a surface) formation(7) gene mutations(8) and overexpression of genes(9)(10) are often associated with increased Candida resistance toward antifungal agents.
Foods stimulated an overgrowth of fungus candida
1. Fruits and artificial ingredients
The high sugar content in fruit feeds Candida except for green apples, citrus, berries, and avocado(186)
and artificial ingredients can depress the immune system(187).
2. Aged cheese(188)
Candida famata found in aged cheese may induce invasive candidiasis(188).
3. Additive and preservation
Men made chemicals can disrupt the digestive track friendly bacteria and allow candida overgrowth(189)(190) such as citric acid. Non-organic food like meat or eggs can also contain antibiotics and steroids for faster growth(191).
4. Alcohol(192)
Alcohol can depress the liver(193) and the immune system(194)(195), causing overgrowth candida.
5. Caffeine, sugar, and sweetener
Caffeine(196)(197), sugar and sweetener(198) all harmful to the body and feed candida
6. Gluten
Gluten is a protein composite that appears in foods processed from wheat and related species
that can cause immune suppression(199)(200)(201).
7. Mushrooms
Mushroom which is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil or on its food source can promote fungus overgrowth(202).
8. Condiments(203)
Condiment which is a sauce or seasoning added to food to impart a particular flavor can depress the immune system(204), causing candida.
9. Vinegar but not apple cider vinegar
Vinegar is an acidic liquid produced from the fermentation of ethanol in a process that yields its key ingredient, an acetic acid which can deplete the stomach of acids and cause inflammation(205)(206) in the digestive tract, including acetic acid ulcer(205).

#CruciferousVeggies' #Sulforaphane (SFN) Inhibits Liver Stress Markers Associated with Liver Toxicity, Researchers Suggest
Kyle J. Norton
Human toxicity is a general term that refers to any substance that causes harm to human health if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin.
Liver toxicity is a process that causes liver damage by reducing the function of the liver.
Liver oxidative stress caused by a toxic substance such as an overdose of the supplement has been found to constitute most cases of acute liver damage.
The liver is the largest internal organ that not only filters the blood from the digestive system before passing it to other parts of the body but also plays a critical role in the production of cholesterol, a waxy substance that aids digestion, builds cell membranes and produces vitamin D and steroid hormones.
Liver stress is a condition in which the function of the liver is partly reduced. Hepatic stress can be observed by the levels of liver stress-makers, including transaminases aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT).
Abnormal high levels of transaminases aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) are early indications of liver damage or injury.
Epidemiologically, drugs that induce liver injury are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), anti-infective drugs (anti-tubercular drugs), anti-cancer drugs, hormonal drugs, immunosuppressive agents, and sedative and neuropsychiatric drugs.
Acetaminophen according to a study is the most common form of medication that implicates drug-induced liver injury
However, antibiotics are another class of drugs that cause liver toxicity most commonly
In finding a potent veggie against drug-induced hepatotoxicity, researchers examined sulforaphane (SFN), a thiol compound found in wide abundance in cruciferous plants against acute liver injury.
In VPA-induced liver injury in rats for 7 days, which causes significant biochemical alterations and hepatic histopathological damage, SFN (0.5 mg/kg, orally) for 7 days showed a significant protective effect against liver injury observed by the liver function biomarkers.
More precisely, levels of liver stress markers such as alanine transaminase, aspartate aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase were strongly reduced by the administration of SFN.
According to the tested analysis, SFN not only restored serum albumin concentration in a significant manner but also SFN significantly mitigated VPA-induced histopathological alterations.
The efficacy of SFN against liver toxicity was attributed to several mechanisms including inhibition of malondialdehyde and tumor necrosis factor α content associated with oxidative stress and the increase of concomitant increase in hepatic heme oxygenase-1 content and glutathione concentration involved in the antioxidant expression.
Based on the results, researchers wrote, "SFN can significantly ameliorate VPA-induced hepatotoxicity and liver injury primarily by a direct association between antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties".
Taken altogether, cruciferous plants may be considered supplements for the prevention of acute liver injury, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

#Herbal #Turmeric Inhibits Parameters Associated with the Risk of Neuro-degenerative Diseases through Its Antioxidant Activity, Researchers Say
Kyle J. Norton
Scientists may have found a bioactive ingredient for the prevention and treatment of neurodegeneration with no side effects, according to studies.
Neurodegeneration is a condition associated with the gradual loss of neuron function caused by reduced quality and death of the neurons.
Neuroprotection is a process in which medicines or substances are used, including herbal remedy to protect the brain cell integrity against the damage and gradual loss of quality and quantity.
Most cases of neurodegenerative diseases are found in the elderly, including Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and Huntington's disease.
According to the statistics, Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease are the most common types of neurodegenerative diseases that affect millions of people worldwide.
In the US, approximately, over five million Americans live with Alzheimer's disease, and at least 500,000 Americans live with Parkinson's disease.
The most common risk factor associated with the onset of neurodegenerative disease is aging. The rise of neurodegenerative disease in the US was probably associated with population-wide health improvements in the increased lifespan, along with a larger generation of aging Americans.
Conventionally, there is no cure for neurodegenerative disease.
The aim of the treatment is to relieve some of the physical or mental symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease accompanied by improving the quality of life of the patients and caregivers.
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as an anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
In the urgency to find a potential ingredient for the treatment of neurodegeneration found a high percentage in the elderly, researchers investigated the protective effects of a natural dietary supplement (NDS), containing Curcuma longa, silymarin, guggul, chlorogenic acid, and inulin, on dysmetabolism and neurodegeneration in an animal model.
The experiment included mice-induced neurodegeneration by a high-fat diet (HFD).
NDS treatment mice showed significant prevention of brain lipid accumulation and central insulin resistance by decreasing the cholesterol concentration and increasing the insulin receptor expression and insulin signaling activation.
Furthermore, NDS also protects the brain cell by protecting the function of enzymes FACL-4 (Acyl-CoA synthetase 4), CerS-1, CerS-4 (Ceramides) whose expression was decreased due to a high-fat diet against the onset of neurodegeneration.
Compared to untreated mice, NDS-treated HFD mice attenuated the levels of RNS, ROS, and lipid peroxidation in the brain.
In other words, NDS prevent the accumulation of lipid peroxidation in the neurons, the action can lead to cell death gradually.
Also, in the brain, NDS inhibited the overexpression of proteins associated with pro-infallamtory cytokine and free radicals caused by a high-fat diet in the induction of cell death, compared to untreated mice.
Additionally different of the results, researchers also found that a lower number of apoptotic nuclei was found in cortical sections of NDS-treated HFD mice, compared to untreated mice.
Dr. the lead scientist, after taking into account co and confounders wrote, "The present data indicate that NDS exerts neuroprotective effects in HFD mice by reducing brain fat accumulation, oxidative stress and inflammation and improving brain insulin resistance".
Taken altogether, turmeric used alone or combined with other herbal medicines may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of neurodegeneration, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of turmeric in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

#Herbal #Ashwagandha Protects the Neurons Against Oxidative Stress-Induced Decrease in DNA Damage of #Glioma Cells
Kyle J. Norton
A glioma is a type of tumor that starts in the glial cells of the brain or the spine.
Glioma cells can be classified into
* Astrocytomas are a type of brain cancer that originates in a particular kind of glial cells, star-shaped brain cells in the cerebrum called astrocytes.
* Ependymomas, are a type of cancer that grows in your brain or any part of the spine, including your neck and upper and lower back.
* Oligodendrogliomas are a type of glioma that starts in glial cells called oligodendrocytes.
Primary glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive cancers that begins within the brain. Cancer may arise as a Grade IV tumor with no evidence.
According to the statistics, the median survival time of primary glioblastoma is approximately 3 months without medical treatment. Glioblastomas represent about 15% of all primary brain tumors.
In the US, the median age of glioblastoma diagnosed is 64 years and the incidence of the disease onset is 1.6 times higher in males compared to females.
Furthermore, the condition is 2 times higher in Caucasians compared to Africans and Afro-Americans.
Because of the rapid growth, patients diagnosed with primary glioblastoma experience sudden brain swelling and increased brain pressure, leading to symptoms of nausea, vomiting, severe headaches, and localized symptoms depending on the location of the tumor.
Conventionally, radiation and chemotherapy are the most common forms of treatment for patients with glioblastoma particularly, in a tumor that cannot be removed with surgery.
The causes of glioblastoma are not identified. However, the increase in age and genetic preposition are the 2 most common risk factors found in patients with the disease.
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 an anti-stress, cognition-facilitating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging herbal medicine.
In finding a potent compound for the inhibition of brain tumors researchers examined the combined active ingredients of Chinese (Helicteres angustifolia) and Indian (Withaniasomnifera) ginseng's effects on glial differentiation potentials.
Based on the tested analysis, the novel combination of Cuc and Wi-N, CucWi-N, showed a significant activity to protect the neuron cells against oxidative stress-induced decrease in DNA damage.
In rat glioblastoma cells, CucWi-N exerted the glial differentiation potential and induced differentiation phenotype.
Proteins are associated with neuron growth and development and a key role in glial differentiation. such as GAP43, MAP2, and GFAP were exhibited by the injection of the combination.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "These data demonstrate anti-stress and glial differentiation potential of CucWi-N (a novel combination of Cuc and Wi-N) that could be recruited in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical avenues and hence warrant further evaluation and mechanistic studies.".
Taken altogether, Ashwagandha may be considered a functional herb that reduces the risk of brain tumors, pending the result of a larger sample size and multicenter study
