The fabulous and tasty smoothie with the power to reduce risk and treatment of stroke through clinical trial, research and studies is a must know to everyone.

The smoothie for reduced risk Stroke and treatment of Stroke
Yield: 2 serving (about 8 ounce each)
3/4 cup blueberry
1/2 cup coffee
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams of green tea, a slice of ginger and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and let cool to room temperature)

31% of American adult are obese. According to the recent statistic, 71% of American are over weight of that have been found to induced chronic illness, including diabetes, heart diseases, .......The prevalence of over weight and obesity may be resulted of typical American diet with high in saturated and trans fat and less consumption of fruits and vegetable.

Green tea and coffee may be the next generation of natural sources of ingredients for reduced risk and treatment of stroke and post stoke management, the new study suggested.

Green tea has been a precious drink in traditional Chinese culture and used exceptional in socialization for more than 4000 thousand years. Due to its commercial values and health effects,
green tea now has been cultivated all over the world in suitable climate.

Coffee is a brewed drink prepared from roasted coffee beans from the Coffee plant.

In a 1 066 718 person-years of follow-up, with documented the incidence of strokes (n=3425) and coronary heart disease (n=910), higher green tea and coffee consumption was associated with inverse risks of CVD and strokes subtypes(1). In support of these effects, Karolinska Institutet showed that high consumption of coffee and tea may reduce the risk of cerebral infarction among men, independent of known cardiovascular risk factors, in a cohort study of 26 556 male Finnish smokers aged 50 to 69 years without a history of stroke at baseline(2).Dr. Larsson SC said," The majority of prospective studies have reported a weak inverse association between moderate consumption of coffee and risk of stroke"(3) in the review of Coffee, tea, and cocoa and risk of stroke.
Other study in support of the above showed that tea consumption, especially green tea, is associated with significantly reduced risks for stroke and habitual coffee consumption not only reduced mortality, both for all-cause and cardiovascular deaths(5), but also associated with risks of heart failure,stroke, diabetes ...(4).

Blueberry, a flower plant, belong to the family Eriaceae and native to Northern America contains several essential phytochemicals and nutrients, including, lutein and zeaxanthin, zinc, potassium, phosphorus, iron, calcium and vitamins.

Flavonoid-rich blueberries not only exhibited anti hypertension cause of stroke in rat model by attenuating angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity, according to University of Prince Edward Island(6), but also reduce risk of stroke through ameliorating immunoreactivity for the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6(7).

Blueberry extract, according to the University of Prince Edward Island, inhibited oxidative stress cause of hypertensive stroke(8) and ischemic stroke(9) by lowering high blood pressure(8).

This finding of the effectiveness of Green Tea and coffee and blueberry phytochemicals may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for reduced risk and treatment of stroke with little or no adverse effects.
People who are at high risk of stroke due to family history, obesity,..... should drink at least one serving daily and people with Stroke should drink the smoothie as much as they can, depending to digestive toleration.
Life style and dietary pattern change are recommended.
