Tocopherols Lower the Risk of Gallstone Diseases

By Kyle J. Norton

The gallbladder is a small organ under the liver with a function of aiding the digestive system in fat metabolism and storing of the bile produced by the liver.

The gallbladder also plays a critical role to maintain the body normal function by providing nutrients and fluids to the body and remove waste through the secretary system.

Gallbladder disease is a condition of inflammation or gallstones of the gallbladder.
A gallstone is a stone formed within the gallbladder out of bile components as a result of building up undissolved cholesterol over a prolonged period of time.

Gallstones can cause blockage of the flow of bile through the bile ducts,  leading to inflammatory causes of acute cholecystitis. Gallstones are most common among older adults, women, overweight people, etc.

According to the statistic, approximate 20 millions of the US population have some kinds of Gallbladder Disease.

The most common symptoms are
* Upper gastrointestinal bleeding if ruptured

* Right upper quadrant or midline epigastric pain

*  Abdominal pain
Gallstones are relatively rare in children. Some gallstones are radiopaque and can be visualized on plain abdominal radiography.

* Other symptoms may include mid-upper abdominal pain,  biliary pain, and colic.

Tocopherols are phytochemicals of which many have vitamin E activity, belonging to the group of Lipids, found abundantly in butter, egg yolk, milk fat, some vegetable, and seed or nut oils, etc.

On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of digestive diseases, researchers examined the effect of tocopherols on gallstone diseases.

According to the analysis of plasma levels of α- and γ-tocopherol using high-performance liquid chromatography in a community-based sample (582 individuals; median age 62 years; 38.5% women),
* Lower probabilities of having gallstone disease were observed in the top (compared to the bottom) tertile of the plasma α-tocopherol/cholesterol ratio (OR (Odds Ratio): 0.31; 95% CI (Confidence Interval): 0.13-0.76).

* γ-tocopherol/cholesterol ratio showed a lower probability of having gallstone disease. However, though the association did not reach statistical significance (OR: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.35-1.69 for 3rd vs 1st tertile).


In other words, levels of α-tocopherol associated with levels of cholesterol showed a significant lowering the risk of gallstone diseases, compared to the ratio of γ-tocopherol/cholesterol

After talking about other factors into account, researchers said, "our observations are consistent with the concept that higher vitamin E levels might protect from gallstone disease, a premise that needs to be further addressed in longitudinal studies.".

Taken altogether, tocopherols may be considered adjunct therapies in the treatment of gallstone diseases, pending the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

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

Healthy Food, Broccoli's Bioactive Ingredient Quercetin Is Effective in Modulating the Immune Response, According to Study

By Kyle J. Norton

Immunomodulators are agents that modify the immune response or the functioning of the immune system such as the stimulation of antibody formation or the inhibition of abnormal white blood cell activity.

In other words, immunomodulation processed immunotherapy, in which immune responses are induced depending on the body's needs.

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

The immune system does a great job of keeping people healthy and preventing infections.

Besides foods and nutritional supplements, herbs also play important roles in helping the immune system to defend against viruses and bacteria attacks.

The immune response is a natural reaction of the immune system to protect our body against the invasion of foreign substances.

Inflammation is a natural response of the immune system which protects the body against the invasion of pathogens.

In the acute phase of infection, the immune system initiated the production of proinflammatory Th1 cytokines in activated interleukin-12 (IL-12) and gamma interferon (IFN-γ) and other pro-inflammatory factors such as TNF beta in response to detect, engulf and destroy pathogens and apoptotic cells through macrophages.

These activities played an important in inducing apoptosis and reducing the proliferation of bacteria or viruses by attaching to the surface of the injured cells to initiation of an alternation. however, overproduction of pro-inflammatory expression may indeed cause substantial adverse effects in tissue destruction, and, in some cases, shock and death.

Type 1 T helper (Th1) in response to tissue damage and injure also activated macrophages that are responsible for cell-mediated immunity and phagocyte-dependent protective activity.

Broccoli is a mustard/cabbage plant, belongings to the family Brassicaceae. The veggie has large flower heads, usually green in color with a mass of flower heads surrounded by leaves and evolved from a wild cabbage plant from the continent of Europe.

On findings a natural wholefood for the prevention of infectious disease, researchers examined the effects of Quercetin, a great representative of polyphenols, flavonoids subgroup, flavonols found in broccoli on the immune response.

Quercetin exhibited antioxidant activity in radical scavenging and anti-allergic properties by stimulation of the immune system against the antiviral activity, histamine release,


Furthermore, quercetin also modulated the immune response by decreasing the pro-inflammatory cytokines, leukotrienes creation, and suppressing interleukin IL-4 production.

The antioxidant improved the Th1/Th2 balance, and restrain antigen-specific IgE antibody formation.

Moreover, quercetin was also effective in the inhibition of enzymes such as lipoxygenase, eosinophil, and peroxidase by suppressing inflammatory mediators.

Based on the results, researchers wrote, " All mentioned mechanisms of action contribute to the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating properties of quercetin that can be effectively utilized in the treatment of late-phase, and late-late-phase bronchial asthma responses, allergic rhinitis, and restricted peanut-induced anaphylactic reactions".

And "Plant extract of quercetin is the main ingredient of many potential anti-allergic drugs, supplements and enriched products".

Taken altogether, broccoli containing high amounts of quercetin may be considered a functional food for the improvement of the immune response, pending confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Omega -3 Fatty Acids Eradicate Glioblastoma Cells in Vitro and Vivo

By Kyle J. Norton

The central nervous system is a part of the nervous system of the brain and spinal cord with the function of integrates information it receives from for the entire nervous system, and control all the workings of your body.

The brain controls our thoughts, memory and speech, movement of the arms and legs, and the function of many organs within our body, through a complex system involved neuron messages transmitting

A neuron or nerve cell made of a cell body (also called soma), dendrites and an axon, is a cell in the nervous system that carries electrical impulses.

Neurons are core components of the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves that play an essential role to process and transmit information.


Glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive cancers that begins within the brain.

According to statistics, most patients diagnosed with cancer die within 12 to 15 months. Less than 5% of patients are survived longer than five years.

If you are male, you are at 1.5 higher risks of glioblastoma, compared to the female's counterpart.

The causes of glioblastoma are unknown, some researchers suggested that genetic preposition and environmental factors, previous radiotherapy, a weakened immune system may be some risk factors associated with the onset of the disease.

Most cases of GBM are diagnosed at an older age with a median age of 64. Some researchers suggested that aging with the change of body function may be one of the major risk factors that cause the incidence.

Omega-3 fatty acids are phytochemicals in the class of lipids, found abundantly in deepsea fisk, dark-green leafy vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, etc.

The three main components of Omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

On finding a potential phytochemical for the treatment of neurological diseases, researchers examined the cytotoxic effect of DHA on the GBM cell lines, D54MG, U87MG, U251MG, and GL261.

According to the results of differentiation
* Treatment of GBM cells with DHA induced PARP cleavage associated with cell death by increasing the population of sub-G1 cells and the number of TUNEL-positive cells with apoptotic DNA fragmentation.

* Furthermore, treatment of GBM cells with DHA exerted a significant increase in autophagic activity, accompanied by activation of 5'-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) induced uptake of oxidative stress and decreases in phosphorylated Akt (p-AktSer473) levels and mTOR activity in the promotion of tumor growth.

In vivo, conversion of ω6-PUFAs to ω3-PUFAs, in fat-1 transgenic mice yielded a significant decrease in tumor volume following subcutaneous injection of mouse glioma cells (GL261), when compared with wild-type mice.

Moreover, the conversion also elevated the TUNEL-positive cell numbers and LC3-II levels in tumor tissue from the fat-1 transgenic mice compared with tumor tissue from the wild-type mice.

Additionally, p-Akt levels in the promotion of cell proliferation and cell survival were decreased compared to the increase of tumor suppressor p-AMPK levels in tumor tissue from the fat-1 transgenic mice.

Based on the findings, researchers said, " ω3-PUFAs induce cell death through apoptosis and autophagy in GBM cells; thus, it may be possible to use ω3-PUFAs as chemopreventive and therapeutic agents for GBM".


Taken altogether, Omega-3 fatty acids may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of glioblastoma, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Intake of Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Herbal Medicine, Cat's claw Processes Immunomodulatory Activity Against the Onset of Inflammatory Disease, According to Studies

Kyle J. Norton


Cat's claw found in the tropical jungles of South and Central America, is a genus Uncaria, belonging to the family Rubiaceae, used in traditional medicine over two thousand years as a tonic, contraceptive, anti-inflammatory, and infectious agent, and to treat diarrhea, rheumatic disorders, acne, diabetes, cancer and diseases of the urinary tract, etc.

The chemical constituents of Cat's claw include ajmalicine, akuammigine, campesterol, catechin, carboxyl alkyl esters, chlorogenic acid, cinchonain, corynantheine, corynoxeine, daucosterol, epicatechin, harman, hirsuteine, hirsutine, iso-pteropodine, etc.

Inflammatory diseases are disorders and conditions caused by inflammation. Cat's claw may be the next generation of medical plants for the treatment of inflammation against various diseases. According to the study by the Case Western Reserve University, Uncaria tomentosa exhibited high levels of anti-inflammatory effects through the interference of the pro-inflammatory expression.

Mitraphylline (MTP), the major pentacyclic oxindole alkaloid presented in Uncaria tomentosa, elicited an anti-inflammatory response that modulates neutrophil activation contributing to the attenuation of inflammatory episodes.

Furthermore, the ingredient, Mitraphylline (MTP) also showed a direct effect on the immune system by reduced almost 40% of the production of interleukin 4 (IL-4) and inhibited around 50% of the release of interleukins.

Indenture Stomatitis, a chronic oral disease that affects denture wearers is caused by Candida Albicans in inducing inflammation. Topical application of a gel of 2% U. tomentosa three times a day for 1 week, cat' claw significantly reduced signs of the disease, after 1 week of treatment.

In fact, the anti-inflammatory properties may also result from their ability to inhibit TNF-alpha, a central regulator of inflammation, and to lesser production of PGE2, a principal mediator of inflammation in disease production.

The effects of cat's claw in inhibited inflammatory diseases may result from its binding to proinflammatory cytokines and pathways. Use of the medical plant should be only prescribed by herbal for safety purposes.

Cruciferous Vegetables May Process Anti Inflammatory Activity, According to Studies

By Kyle J. Norton

Whole food(herbal medicine) used as medical treatment, linking health benefits in prevention, management, and treatment of diseases has induced much interest in today renowned scientists.
But many researchers have raised questions of herbal quality, because geographic differences, time of grown and harvest, etc. may affect their's potency. I do believe, these questions can only be answered by experienced herbalists.

Intake of cruciferous vegetables may be inversely correlated with circulating proinflammatory levels in women.

In a total of 1,005 middle-aged Chinese women study, consumption of cruciferous vegetables regularly is associated to lower circulating concentrations of proinflammatory cytokines.

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


Cruciferous vegetables are the 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 in the vegetables, such as 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM), a derivative of indole-3-carbinol, also expressed anti-pro-inflammatory 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 also involved in other aspects, such as environmental airborne particulate pollutants, according to the East Campus - Laurentian University.

Queen Herb, Chaste Tree Berry May Process Anti-Aging Chronic Diseases Activity, Researchers Find

By Kyle J. Norton

Chaste tree berry may process a strong effect in reduced 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 as Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.

Antioxidants are chemical compounds with the function of inhibited 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 preparation s of Chaste tree berry, researchers showed that water and ethanol extract content is far stronger antioxidant activity in compared 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 antioxidant effect in the extract may have resulted from the recently discovered phytochemicals, flavonoid constituents EtOAc extract, casticin, 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 berry displayed a significant antioxidant potential in ameliorated the risk of free radicals in induced chronic diseases, but a large amount of intake should be taken with care.

Healthy Foods Dried Peas and Dried Beans Ameliorate the Risk and Treatment of Colon Cancer in Vivo and Human Studies

By Kyle J. Norton

Dietary factors can influence cancers formation and growth, intake of dried peas may have a potential effect in reduced risk of colon cancer, a recent study suggested

Dried pea is a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family, genus Pisum belongings to the family Fabaceae with a healthy source of proteins, fibers, vitamins, and minerals.

Colon cancer is a condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and irregularly in the tissues of the colon.

A case-control designed study of 186 men and women with a mean of 58 years of age revealed that consumption of legumes such as dried beans, split peas, or lentils daily and regularly was inversely associated with reduced risk of colon cancer, after adjusting all potential confounding variables.

The relative risk odd ratio of colon cancer occurrence in these subjects was ameliorated substantially in comparison to control.


Researchers also indicated that the risk of colon cancer decrease may be attributed to legumes dietary fiber together with enormous presences of phytochemical compounds.
Dr. Agurs-Collins T, the led author said, "Nurses working with African-Americans should encourage consumption of these foods to decrease this risk".

Others, in the study of the same subject, suggested that by modifying diet and lifestyle habits, adenomatous polyps and 25-35% of colon adenoma risk could be avoidable. As consumption of legumes at least 3 times/wk reduced the risk of colon cancer by 33% after adjusting for meat intake.

Furthermore, the research result also postulated that a high frequency of consumption of cooked green vegetables, dried fruit, legumes, and brown rice was associated with a decreased risk of colorectal polyps.

Interestingly, in the investigated effect of consumption of standard diets supplemented with freeze-dried vegetables (peas, spinach, sprouts, and broccoli) and carotenoids (all-trans beta-carotene and palm oil carotenoid extract) on surrogate end-point markers for colorectal cancer in an azoxymethane-induced rat model, researchers at the Unilever Research Vlaardingen, illustrated that
peas, spinach, sprouts, and a mix of all vegetable diet expressed a significantly reduced the number of foci with >2 aberrant crypts/focus by 37, 26, 23, and 26%, particularly in the pea and spinach intervention groups.


After adjusting to other risk factors, researchers filed the following reports
1. Peas, spinach, sprouts, and a mix of all vegetable diet was beneficial effects in reduced risk of colorectal carcinogenesis
2. Consumption of several types of vegetables inhibits the early onset of colorectal carcinogenesis
3. and suggest that the vegetable-induced effect is more pronounced in advanced lesions.

Taking all together, dried peas may be used as therapeutic ingredients in reduced risk and treatment of colon cancer and diseases related to colon abnormalities.
