Food Therapy: Coffee and Coffee caffeine, Risk of Endometriosis?

By Kyle J. Norton

Whole food ingredients in herbal plant have been found to process some significant effects in reduced risk and treatment of certain diseases, but single ingredient isolated from such plants may induce opposite responses.In compared to herbal medicine, food therapy even takes longer to ease symptoms, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Coffee is a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

Epidemiological studies do not agreed that coffee regular intake is associated to risk of endometriosis, according to the IRCSS Fondazione Ca' Granda.

In a meta-analysis of epidemiological studies published up to January 2013 to analyze the relative risks (RR) of endometriosis for any, high and low versus no coffee/caffeine consumption, researchers filed the following reports

1. A total of six case-control and two cohort studies, including a total of 1,407 women with endometriosis were found in this review
2. The relative ratio were 1.26 and 1.13 for coffee and caffeine consumed participants respectively, in compared to non-consumption group
3. The overall relative ratio was 1.18 in coffee consumption group after taking into account of numbers of cup of coffee intake and other risk factors
4. Risk of endometrosis increased reduced to 1.09 in compared to high and low caffeine consumption as compared to no consumption, respectively.

Dr. Chiaffarino F, based on the information of this review said, "The present meta-analysis provided no evidence for an association between coffee/caffeine consumption and the risk of endometriosis. Coffee/caffeine consumption, as currently used in diet, does not carry a health risk".

Other, in the examine data from two case-control studies conducted in Northern Italy between 1984 and 1999 with 504 women aged < 65 years (median age 33 years, range 20-65) with a laparoscopically confirmed diagnosis of endometriosis, admitted to a network of obstetrics and gynaecology departments in Milan, Brescia and Pavia and 504 healthy women acted as control, researchers at the Università di Milano after adjusting to other risk factors suggested that there may be a link between diet and risk of endometriosis but coffee intake do not form significant risk of endometriosis incidence.

Contrast to the above studies, according to the cross-sectional study included 28,822 women, 1,228 women with endometriosis and the self-reported diagnosis was confirmed by medical records conducted by the joint institutes lead by the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Karolinska Institute, coffee intake was associated to risk of development of endometriosis.

The study also indicated that even coffee showed a positive association to risk of endometriosis, but future studies are needed to explore the significance of other factors such as age at menarche, level of education, body mass index (BMI), parity, oral contraceptive (OC) use, infertility, smoking, and alcohol intake in the diagnosis of endometriosis and understanding of its etiology.

Taking altogether, although there are conflict information related to coffee intake and risk of endometriosis, but women with family history of ednometriosis are recommended to reduce intake of coffee and coffee caffeine and consult with their doctors before applying high amount of coffee daily.

In Herbal Medicine, symptoms of the disease can only be eased gradually, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of the disease.

Andrographis paniculata is 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, upper respiratory infections, infectious diseases, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, pneumonia,....

Immunomodulatory Activity is the action in regulated immune response or the functioning of the immune system against forming of diseases, including stimulating production of antibody and
inhibited white blood cells in induced inflammation,.....

Andrographis processed significant effects in enhanced immune function, through modulation of immune responses, a renowned institute study suggested.

According to the Prin. K. M. Kundnani College of Pharmacy, HN-02, an extract containing a mixture of andrographolides plus 14-deoxyandrographolide and 14-deoxy-11,12-didehydroandrographolide together [12 +/- 3 %]) in a pure powder form at 1.0, 1.5, and 2.5 mg/kg on different in vivo and in vitro experimental models, demonstrated  the ability in enhanced immune function by modulation of immune responses altered during antigen interaction, and to reverse the immunosuppression induced by cyclophosphamide (CYP).

Dr. Naik SR, the lead author said, " HN-02 treatment significant increase in total WBC count" and "elevated the depressed hemagglutination antibody (HA) titer and increased the number of plaque-forming cells (PFCs) in the spleen cells of mice".

Other researchers in the evaluation of the immunomodulatory activity of herbal andrographis indicated that andrographis paniculata exhibited the effect through genes expression involved in immune cell activation and migration and various inflammatory responses, including wound healing, angiogenesis, and blood pressure modulation.

The study also identified chemical compound of lipopolysaccharide in Andrographis paniculata as one of natural and most active immunostimulatory component.

Additionally, dichloromethane fraction of the methanolic extract.of Andrographis paniculata also expressed an impressive inhibition against testing human cancer and immune cells.
At low concentration, the dichloromethane extract enhanced immune function in attenuated the proliferation of HT-29 (colon cancer) cells and human peripheral blood lymphocytes (HPBLs).

Furthermore, the study also found, andrographolide, another major compound in Andrographis paniculata exhibited immune ability to suppress irregular cell growth and cancer activity on diverse cancer cells in different types of human cancers.

Taking altogether, there is no doubt, that Andrographis consisted a strong immunomodulatory activity in regulated immune respond against procession of irregular cell growth and over reaction of foreign harmful substances, but intake of large amount should be taken with care.

Food Therapy: Coffee and Coffee Caffeine In Reduced Risk and Symptoms of Non Alcoholic Liver Disease

By Kyle J. Norton

In compared to herbal medicine, food therapy even takes longer to ease symptoms, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Coffee, second to green tea, is a popular and social beverage all over the world, particular in the West, made from roasted bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

Coffee and coffee caffeine may have a profound effect in reduced symptoms of non alcoholic liver disease, renowned institute studies suggested.

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the types of fatty liver caused by fat accumulated (steatosis) in the liver other than excessive alcohol drinking.

According to a retrospective cross-sectional study on patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection to determine the effects of coffee intake on a non-invasive marker of liver fibrosis, coffee intake of 2 or more cups per day demonstrated a significant reduced liver symptom of stiffness, after adjustment for age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, in compared to other subgroups.

Additionally, in the review of epidemiological and clinical evidence by the Zhejiang University, coffee intake may have a profoundly reduced severity and risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) prevalence.

In fact,  the effect of coffee in attenuated risk of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) incidence may be also involved other chemical constituents other than caffeine.

Dr. Chen S, the lead researchers suggested that said, "Several possible mechanisms underlying coffee's hepatoprotective effects in NAFLD include antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antifibrotic effects".

Interestingly, the review of literature published in database of Medline and Embase up to March 2015, showed that coffee and coffee caffeine intake have a strong impact in protect liver against complications of fibrosis incidence.

Information collected indicated that coffee and coffee caffeine intake have a enormous demonstration in ameliorated risk and symptoms of Non alcoholic liver disease, but some researchers suggested that other components such as  antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antifibrotic effects may also play an important role in enhancement of these results.

Whole food ingredients in herbal plant have been found to process some significant effects in reduced risk and treatment of certain diseases, but single ingredient isolated from such plants may induce opposite outcomes.
Andrographis paniculata expressed a significant efficacy similar to those of mesalamine, for treatment of  ulcerative colitis, a study by renowned institute suggested.

Ulcerative colitis is condition of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) inducing long-lasting inflammation and ulcers in the digestive tract.

Andrographis paniculata is 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, upper respiratory infections, infectious diseases, diarrhea, dysentery, cholera, pneumonia,....

In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in evaluated the efficacy of A. paniculata extract (HMPL-004) in 224 adults with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis. with patients randomized to A. paniculata extract (HMPL-004) 1,200 mg or 1,800 mg daily or placebo for 8 weeks, patients treated with A. paniculata extract (HMPL-004) at a dose of 1,800 mg daily achieve clinical response than those receiving placebo.

The study also discovered that 60 and 53% of patients treated with A. paniculata groups experienced adverse effect at doses of 1,200 mg and 1,800 mg daily respectively in comparison to 60% in the placebo group.

Dr. Sandborn WJ, the lead author in the study said, "Andrographis paniculata has in vitro inhibitory activity against TNF-α, IL-1β and NF-κB. A pilot study of A. paniculata extract (HMPL-004) suggested similar efficacy to mesalamine for ulcerative colitis."

Other study involved herbal extract HMPL-004 also support the use of herbal extract for treatment in patients with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis, according to the randomised, double-blind, multicentre, 8-week parallel group study conducted using HMPL-004 with 1200 mg/day in compared with 4500 mg/day of slow release mesalazine (mesalamine) granules in same group.

In fact, in comparison to mesalazine, HMPL-004 exhibited a 21% and 76% of more efficacy in treated patients, compared to 16% and 82% of mesalazine-treated patients through the colonoscopy, remission and response.

Although HMPL-004 may be an efficacious alternative to mesalazine in treating ulcerative colitis, the herbal medicine can only prescribed by herbalist to prevent overdose toxicity.

Food Therapy: Maternal Coffee Intake in Reduced Risk of β-cell autoimmunity in New Born

By Kyle J. Norton

In compared to herbal medicine, food therapy even takes longer to ease symptoms, depending to stages of the treatment which directly address to the cause of disease.

Coffee, becoming a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.

Maternal consumption of coffee may have a profound effect in reduced risk of β-cell autoimmunity inducing Type 1 diabetes in the offspring, according to the University of Tampere.

In a prospective Finnish birth cohort of 4297 infants with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DQB1-conferred susceptibility to type 1 diabetes with lbood samples collected from the children at 3-12 months intervals to measure type 1 diabetes-associated antibodies against islet cells (ICA), insulin, glutamate dehydroxylase, and islet antigen 2, returned questionnaire from mothers indicated that intake of coffee during perchance expresses a inversely associated risk of development of advanced β-cell autoimmunity in their infants.

Even after adjusting to other risk factors,  coffee showed a linearly dependent to amount of cups intake of the mothers against risk of β-cell autoimmunity incidence in newborns.

Additionally, in the review of data comprised 4297 children with increased genetic susceptibility to type 1 diabetes, born at the University Hospital of Oulu or Tampere, Finland, between October 1997 and December 2002 monitored for diabetes-associated autoantibodies from samples obtained at 3-12-mo intervals, returned surveys from mothers indicated that coffee increased antioxidant status have a a significant effect in reduced risk of advanced beta cell autoimmunity development in children, compared to substantial risk of the offspring in mother who did not intake any antioxidant dietary nutrients.

Further more, Dr. Uusitalo L, the lead researcherssaid, "the hazard ratios, indicating the change in risk per a 2-fold increase in the intake of each antioxidant, were nonsignificant and close to 1" and "High maternal intake of retinol, beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, zinc, or manganese does not protect the child from development of advanced beta cell autoimmunity in early childhood".

Interestingly, the returned questionarre from participants in the data from a population-based case-control study with incident cases of adult onset (≥ 35 years) diabetes, including 245 cases of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody positive), 759 cases of Type 2 diabetes (glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody negative), together with 990 control subjects without diabetes, randomly selected from the population, researchers found that intake of coffee may have enormous effect in reduced risk of type 2 diabetes, but conversely, coffee intake showed to associate to elevated risk of autoimmunity and possibly an increased risk of Type 1-like latent autoimmune diabetes in these group of adults.

Dr. Löfvenborg JE, the lead author in above study said, " for every additional cup of coffee consumed per day, there was a 15.2% (P = 0.0268) increase in glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody levels".

Taking altogether, There is no doubt that coffee consumption during pregnancy has a substantial effect in attenuated risk of type 1 diabetes caused by advanced β-cell autoimmunity. But coffee consumed in adulthood may increased risk of  Type 1-like latent autoimmune diabetes adults. contrastively.

Herbal Therapy: Chaste tree berry, The Best Antinociceptive Functional Food

Kyle J. Norton



Whole food ingredients in herbal plant have been found to process some significant effects in reduced risk and treatment of certain diseases, but single ingredient isolated from such plants may induce opposite outcomes.

A recent study suggested that essential oil isolated from Chaste tree berry mayhave a potential effect in reduced neuro-pain through antinociceptive function in tested subjects.
Antinociceptive effect is the activity in reduced pain through interference with information transmitted and received of brain neurons.

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 year as anaphrodisiac herb and considered as Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.

In the study of three behavioral models of nociception in adult male Wistar rats conducted by the University of Tabriz, topical essential oil extracted from Vitexagnus-castus (EOVAC) applied on  animal expressed a reduced pain responses in tail immersion tests, inhibited the acetic acid-induced writhing response with little adverse effects.

Dr. Khalilzadeh E, the lead author said, " major components of the EOVAC were α-pinene (14.83%), limonene (10.29%), β-caryophyllene (6.9%), sabinene (5.27%), and β-farnesene (5.9%), (may have direct infleunce to the) endogenous opioidergic system as well as muscarinergic receptors of cholinergic system may be involve in the antinociceptive activity of Vitex agnus-castus essential oil in these models of pain in rats".

Interestingly, the extract of herbal medicine also displayed a strong effect against chronic inflammation in induced pain.

The joint study lead by the Federal University of Santa Maria suggested that crude extract caused antinociceptive/antidepressant-like effects in the CFA-induced chronic inflammation model in comparable to naloxone, without altered inflammatory parametersat doses of 10mg/kg,

This result indicated that The VmE extract demonstrated pain relief through inducing opioid-dependent antinociception and antidepressant-like effects, without anti-inflammatory activity.

Further more, in the investigated petroleum ether fraction (PEF) from the aqueous ethanol extract of Chaste tree berry in several nociceptive mouse models, mouses treated with the fraction produced significant dose-related inhibitions on chemical nociception in comparable to Naloxone (1 mg/kg bw subcutaneously), a non-selected opioid receptor antagonist.

In xylene-induced ear edema test, the fraction also exerted a strong analgesic effects partially mediated by its anti-inflammatory activity.

Taking together, Chaste tree berry may have a therapeutic potential to be used as antinociceptive functional food in reduced pain through blocking the information transfer by neurotransmitters.
