The heart formed part of the circulatory system is a muscular organ that pumps blood through the blood vessels to nourish the body tissues and organs.
Most cases of heart dysfunction are associated with the reduced function of the heart muscle, leading to reduce blood flow that facilitates heart failure and the backup of blood into the lungs or rest of the body.
According to the statistics provided by the US government, heart disease is a leading cause of death in the US. Over 600,000 died of heart disease, every year including 370,000 people died of coronary heart disease (CHD), accounting for 1 in 4 deaths.
The most common symptoms of heart disease are poor appetite, weight loss, shortness of breath, sudden collapse, blood clots and stunted growth found in children.
If you have experienced some of the aforementioned symptoms, please check with your doctor to rule the risk of heart disease.
By following a healthy dietary intake, physical activity, weight management, smoking cessation, blood pressure control, and lipid management, most cases of heart disease are preventable.
Dr. Melanie Warziski Turk, in the evaluation of the risk of heart disease in women, wrote, "Because heart disease is frequently preventable, increasing awareness of personal risk and preventative measures is a key element of healthcare for women".
And, "Nurse clinicians can evaluate, educate, and counsel women regarding their risk for this pervasive disease and promote behavior changes that will decrease that risk. Research evidence supports that lifestyle behaviors are the cornerstone of heart disease prevention".
The cucumber plant is a species of Cucumis Sativus, belongings to the family Cucurbitaceae and native to Western Asia. It is a creeping vine with roots in the ground and grows up with the support of frames.
With an aim to find a natural compound for the improvement of heart health, researchers investigated the therapeutic impact of cucurbitacin I on the heart.
According to the tested assay, phenylephrine (PE)-induced muscle cell enlargement and cardiac hypertrophy was inhibited by the pretreatment of the cardiomyocytes with cucurbitacin I.
Furthermore, cucurbitacin I protect the heart connective tissues against the onset of cardiac fibrosis.
More importantly, cucurbitacin I also significantly expressed the heart muscle protective effect by inhibiting the factors associated with the increase of blood pressure.
In order to reveal more information about cucumber anti-cardiac hypertrophy, a leading cause of heart failure, researchers evaluated cucurbitacin B anti-hypertrophy and anti-fibrosis potential both in vitro and in vivo.
Selected mice induced cardiac hypertrophy after 1 week of surgery, were given cucurbitacin B treatment for 4 weeks.
At the end of the experiment, cucurbitacin B demonstrated a strong anti- hypertrophy and anti-fibrosis ability evidenced by decreased heart weight, myocardial cell cross-sectional area, and interstitial fibrosis.
Additionally, the levels of heart systolic and diastolic abnormalities induced by the surgery was also moralized by the application of cucurbitacin B.
Furthermore, gene expressions induced hypertrophic and fibrotic markers, reserved microvascular density in pressure overload-induced hypertrophic mice were also normalized by the injection cucurbitacin B.
Taken altogether, cucumber and its bioactive compound cucurbitacin I and B (CuB) may be used for the improvement of heart health, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of CuB in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Lycopene Effects on Pancreas Functioning in Diabetes in Vivo
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 pancreas is an oblong flattened gland in the digestive and endocrine system located in the abdomen. By secreting pancreatic juice to the small intestine, the pancreas helps to break down carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids. Traditional Chinese medicine views the pancreas as a vital organ that is responsible for the absorption of foods' qi and nutrients before passing them to other organs to nourish our bodies.
The effects of the pancreas on diabetes
* Type 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, the most common form of diabetes found in children is a condition in which the pancreas does not produce any insulin. The most common form of type 1 diabetes is caused by genetic mutation and some viruses.
As of today, there is no cure for type 1 diabetes. Treatment is focusing on managing blood sugar levels with insulin injection, diet, and lifestyle change.
* Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of acquired diabetes in adulthood is a chronic condition that affects the body metabolized glucose. In other words, most cases of type 2 diabetes are results of insulin receptors clogged-up by fat and cholesterol, leading to resist the effects of the hormone insulin that regulates the movement of sugar into your cells.
* Gestational diabetes is a form of diabetes that can occur during pregnancy, affecting between 3% and 20% of pregnant women.
Women with gestational diabetes are at an increased risk of type 2 diabetes in later life.
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 that 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.
Lycopene is a phytochemical found in tomato in the class of carotenoid, a natural pigment with no vitamin A activity found abundantly in tomatoes and other red fruits and vegetables, such as red carrots, watermelons, and papayas,
Tomatoes provide about 80% of the lycopene in the world diet. In plants, lycopene protects the host against excessive photodamage and performs various functions in photosynthesis.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of diabetes, researchers examined the role of lycopene (L) on the changes occurring in estrogen receptor (ER) α-positive cells and oxidative stress markers in the pancreas of experimentally induced adult diabetic rats.
According to the results from a single dose of 50 mg/kg streptozotocin (STZ) t5o induce diabetes in rats, that divided into four groups: Control + corn oil, control + lycopene, diabetic + corn oil, and diabetic + lycopene.
Diabetic groups showed a higher number of proliferating Ki-67 positive cells without affecting apoptotic cell number compared to control.
In lycopene treatment groups
* Lycopene first time treated group showed with the presence of ER α-positive cells around the islets did not have any effect on any of the parameters aforementioned in diabetic groups.
* Increasing the dose and/or the duration of lycopene.demonstrated the antioxidant effects on the pancreas of diabetic rats observed by lowering oxidative stress
Taken altogether, long-term lycopene intake may be considered supplements for the improvement of pancreas function in the diabetics, pending on the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of lycopene in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Herbal Cleaver(Galium aparine),the Potential Antioxidant Remedy
Antioxidants are stable atom that plays a critical role in protecting the body against the attack of free radicals in the induction of oxidative stress.
In other words, antioxidants inhibited the onset of free radical before they can cause a chain reaction in facilitating the protein, lipid and cell damage.
Antioxidants can either produced by the liver or intake from dietary sources. Under normal conditions, antioxidant enzymes produced by the body in a healthy individual are good enough to counter the bombardment of free radical attacks.
However, in people with a weakened immune system, intake dietary sources of antioxidants may be necessary.
Free radicals are highly reactive molecules with an unpaired electron on the outer ring of the atom.
Due to its nature to become stable, free radicals readily to donate or steal an electron from other molecules, leading to the chain of domino's effect that can not be stopped until either the electrons are paired or inhibited by antioxidants.
This chain of reaction is the cause of oxidative stress, a condition is associated with either overexpression of free radicals or depletion of antioxidant enzymes produced by the host organs.
Overexpression of free radicals is known to cause damage in contributing to the etiology of many chronic health problems such as cardiovascular and inflammatory disease, cataracts, and cancer.
Oxidative stress is a result of an imbalance of the ratio of free radicals and antioxidants in the body.
Cleaver is a herbaceous annual plant, genus Galium, belonging to the family Rubiaceae, native to North America and Eurasia. The herb has been used over thousands of years in herbal and traditional medicine as mild diuretic and blood and lymphatic cleanser and to treat psoriasis, skin conditions, glands, tonsillitis, bladder infections, prevent small kidney stone, etc.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of diseases associated with oxidative stress, researchers compared the phenolic content and the antioxidant activity of Anthyllis vulneraria L., Fuchsia sp., Galium mollugo L., and Veronica beccabunga L.
According to the chemical analysis, the Galium mollugo polyphenol tannin, and flavonoid contents are 1.77 ± 0.05, 0.49 ± 0.04 and 0.16 ± 0.06 g/100 g dry weight) compared to those of Fuchsia species of 7.40 ± 0.8, 5.62 ± 0.7 and 0.72 ± 0.1 g/100 g dry weight and Anthyllis vulneraria (0.68 ± 0.02, 0.17 ± 0.03 and 0.45 ± 0.01 g/100 g dry weight., respectively.
More precisely, herbal cleaver(Galium aparine) showed a higher total polyphenol, tannin, and flavonoid contents than A. vulneraria but lower, compared to those of Fuchsia sp.
In other words, all antioxidant compounds found in herbal cleaver(Galium aparine) work together to exert anti-free radical activity in the stimulation of the onset of oxidative stress.
Taken altogether, Cleaver processed an antioxidant activity against the risk of oxidative stress, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Beta-Sitosterol Protects the Pancreatic Islets functioning Against the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes
The pancreas is an oblong flattened gland in the digestive and endocrine system located in the abdomen. By secreting pancreatic juice to the small intestine, the pancreas helps to break down carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids.
Traditional Chinese medicine views the pancreas, a vital organ is responsible for the absorption of foods' qi and nutrients before passing them to other organs to nourish our body.
More precisely, the functions of the pancreas including the
* Production of enzymes digest fat, protein, and
carbohydrates.
* Production of juices combined with juices from the intestines to break down protein, carbohydrates and fat, therefore, it plays an important role in maintaining good health.
* Production of insulin, which is important in regulating the amount of sugar or glucose in the blood.
Pancreatic islets are groups of hormones producing cells, including insulin and glucagon, that work together to maintain the proper level of sugar (glucose) in the blood.
Profound distortion of islet organization in the pancreas has been found to induce account abnormal secretory behavior of the glucagon-secreting A cells in insulin-dependent juvenile-onset diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes, also known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, the most common form of diabetes found in children is a condition in which the pancreas does not produce any insulin. The most common form of type 1 diabetes is caused by genetic mutation and some viruses.

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.
Beta-Sitosterol is a phytochemical in the class of Phytosterols, belongings to the group of Lipids, found abundantly in avocados, rice bran, wheat germ, corn oils, fennel, peanuts, soybeans, hawthorn, basil, buckwheat. etc.
On finding a potential phytochemical for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, researchers elucidated the anti-diabetic effects of the extract of A. tenuifolia underground parts and β-sitosterol on rat pancreatic islets.
According to the results of the analysis,* The root extract of the plant and compound β-sitosterol isolated from the root extracts showed moderate α-amylase inhibitory activity.
* Furthermore, the herb root extract was able to increase the secretion of insulin in high concentration (10 mg/mL) and improved the cell viability with no toxicity in all doses.
* The herbal extract could reduce the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) associated with the onset of oxidative stress in orchestrating damage to the pancreatic islets.
* Moreover, the plant extract also significantly decreased the enzyme activity associated with pro-apoptotic expression by increasing the antioxidant capacity of the isolated cells.
In other words, all compound found in the extract work synergistically to protect the pancreatic islets by inhibiting all parameters involved in pancreatic damage, particularly, the compound β-sitosterol
Taken altogether, beta-Sitosterol combined with other phytochemicals found in A. tenuifolia underground parts may be considered a supplement for the protection of pancreatic islets induced diabetes, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of beta-Sitosterol in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Phytochemical Tocopherols Inhibit Radiotherapy Side Effect of Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) in Head and Neck Cancer Patients
Head and neck cancer is a group of cancers found in the mouth, throat, larynx, sinuses, or salivary glands.
Most cases of head and neck cancer, at the early stage, start by the cell growth irregularly and disorderly on the surface of the inner lining in the head and neck.
At the advanced stage, patients may experience symptoms of a lump in the nose, neck or throat, with or without pain, a persistent sore throat that does not heal, trouble swallowing (dysphagia) and frequent and persistent coughing.
At this stage, cancer cells may travel a distance away from the original site to infect other healthy tissue and organs.
The exact causes of head and neck cancer are unknown. However, certain prevalent risk factors such as prolonged sun exposure, infected by the Human papillomavirus (HPV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), poor oral and dental hygiene and occupational inhalants, long-term marijuana, and tobacco use and involuntary smoking are associated to the onset of head and neck cancer.
Dr. Kazuhiro Kobayashi in the investigation of the risk of HPV on head and neck cancer (HNC) wrote, " Infection with high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPVs) has recently been implicated in the pathogenesis of HNSCCs. It is now widely accepted that high-risk HPV is a cause of almost all cervical cancers as well as some forms of HNSCCs. HPV-related HNSCCs are increasing".
Osteoradionecrosis is a condition associated with bone death due to exposure to radiation or radiation treatment.
The death of bone cells is a result of radiation induce-damage of the blood vessel that supplies the nutrients to the bone.
Osteoradionecrosis is a rare side effect occurred sometime after radiation therapy has ended. The complication usually occurs in the lower jaw or mandible.
Tocopherols are phytochemicals of which many have vitamin E activity, belongings 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 prevention and treatment of cancer, researchers examined the effect of the modalities of the combination therapy of pentoxifylline and tocopherol in Vitamin E (PVe) against osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw induced by radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients.
The study included a total of 110 patients in this retrospective study, which had radiotherapy for cancer of the head and neck with a total of 450 dental extractions after radiotherapy.
According to the tested results of patients had taken PVe for a mean of 12 (24) weeks preoperatively and 14 (18) weeks postoperatively, PVe treatment in external beam therapy was given in 92.72% of the patients, and 7.27% and 40% of the patients received intensity-modulated radiotherapy combination of chemotherapy and intensity-modulated radiotherapy, induced the development of ORN only in 2 patients.
These results compared to untreated patients was lower than that normally associated with dental extractions in irradiated patients.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "In patients undergoing dental extractions, after receiving radiotherapy of head and neck region, combination therapy of pentoxifylline and tocopherol are sufficiently effective".
Taken altogether, tocopherols use d in the combination of other medications may reduce the risk of radiotherapy side effects in the development of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaw in head and neck cancer patients. pending to 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.

Antioxidant Lycopene in the Prevention and Treatment of Esophagitis
Esophagitis or heartburn or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). is a condition characterized by the going back up of acidic stomach contents to the esophagus.
Most cases of esophagitis are happened immediately after eating causing a burning sensation or pain in the lower chest area.
According to the statistics, in the US, approximately, 20% of people with acid reflux will develop esophagitis.
More than 65% of people who suffer from acid reflux are 40 years old or older. And, 15 to 30 5 of the U.S. population has esophagitis
There is no single cause of esophagitis. Epidemiologically, eating large meals or lying down right after a meal, snacking close to bedtime, smoking, being overweight or obese, overeating certain foods such as citrus, tomato, chocolate, mint, garlic, onions, or spicy or fatty foods are some prevalent factors associated with the risk of esophagitis
First-time pregnancy women may also experience esophagitis caused by increasing levels of hormones combined with pressure from the growing fetus.
Furthermore, long-term intake of certain medications such as bronchodilators for asthma, progestin for birth control or to treat abnormal menstrual bleeding, sedatives for insomnia and anxiety, calcium channel blockers for high blood pressure.
Dr. Zeynel Mungan and colleagues in examing the medication risk of esophagitis wrote, "Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which is common in many communities, is associated with structural factors, eating habits, and the use of certain drugs".
And, "The use of such drugs can lead to the emergence of GERD and can also exacerbate existing reflux symptoms. These drugs can contribute to GERD by directly causing mucosal damage, by reducing lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP), or by affecting esophagogastric motility".
Therefore, if you currently taking some of the aforementioned medication, please make sure that you know all the side effects for preventive measures.
Lycopene is a phytochemical found in tomato in the class of carotenoid, a natural pigment with no vitamin A activity found abundantly in tomatoes and other red fruits and vegetables, such as red carrots, watermelons, and papayas,
Tomatoes provide about 80% of the lycopene in the world diet. In plants, lycopene protects the host against excessive photodamage and performs various functions in photosynthesis.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of esophagitis, researchers examined the role of lycopene (L) on radiation-induced acute esophageal toxicity in an animal model.
60 Wistar albino rats.selected to the study were divided into five groups: control, L, radiotherapy (RT), L before RT (L + RT), and L before and after RT (L + RT + L). 6 mg/kg bw/day with L administered 7 days in the L group, 7 days before RT in the L + RT group, and 7 days before and after in the L + RT + L group.
According to the tested analysis, L levels were significantly higher in the L receiving groups, compared to RT group.
Esophagitis was significantly worse in the RT group than in the none-RT groups. Injection of lycopene in the L + RT and the L + RT + L groups showed better results than the RT group.
Compared to the RT group, grade 2-3 degenerative changes-necrosis and vacuole formation were significantly lesser in the L + RT and the L + RT + L groups.
Furthermore, subepithelial bulla formation and inflammation in the L + RT and the L + RT + L groups were also significantly decreased compared to the RT group.
Moreover, L + RT + L groups exerted the highest decrease to regeneration-mitosis compared to a moderate decrease in the L + RT group, compared to RT groups.
Taken altogether, lycopene found in tomato may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of esophagitis, pending on the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of lycopene in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Turmeric Kills Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells In Vitro
Cancer is a class of medical and chronic diseases caused by irregular cell growth due to the alternation of cell DNA in the tissue of a specific organ.
Cancer cell that grows and multiplies disorderly and uncontrollably over time can induce the forming of tumor after penetrating into deeper layers of the infected organ tissue.
At the advanced stage, most invasive tumors can travel a distance away to infect other organs in the body via lymph or blood.
The lung is a vital organ located near the backbone on either side of the heart with functions of inhaling oxygen from the air before passing them to other parts of the body and exhaling carbon dioxide from the bloodstream.
Lung cancer is a condition of the abnormal growth of the cells in the lung's tissue. The most common form of primary lung cancers is derived from epithelial cells.
According to the statistics provided by the American Cancer Society, lung cancer is by far the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women in the US. Believe it or not, each year, more people die of lung cancer than of colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined.
Most people diagnosed with lung cancer are 65 or older, compared to a very small number of those younger than 45.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer, that usually grows and spreads methodically and predictably including
* Squamous-cell carcinoma is a type of NSCLC often found in an outer area of the lung.
* Large-cell carcinoma is a type of NSCLC found in the center of the lung by an air tube.
* Adenocarcinoma is type of NSCLC found in any part of the lung.
Dr. Paris D. Makrantonakis, the lead scientist in examined the correlation of NSCLC risk and treatment in the elderly wrote, "The population is aging both in developing and developed countries. What is clear is that currently, over 50% of all patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are 65 years of age or older".
And, "recently published studies have focused on the issue and have provided strong evidence of improved progression-free survival, overall survival, and quality of life in elderly patients with appropriately treated NSCLC".
Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belongings to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, colorant, antiseptic, wound healing agent, and to treat flatulence, bloating, and appetite loss, ulcers, eczema, inflammations, etc.
On finding a potential ingredient for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), researchers examined the effect of curcumin on the expression of adiponectin in paired tumors and normal lung tissues from 77 patients with NSCLC.
Epidemiologically, patients with low adiponectin expression ratio (<1) were found to have significantly longer survival time compared to those with high expression ratio and adiponectin may be a prognostic indicator of NSCLC.
Administration of curcumin showed to inhibit the migratory and invasive ability of A549 cells by inhibiting the adiponectin expression.
Furthermore, Curcumin treatment also inhibited the in vivo tumor growth of A549 cells associated with the adiponectin expression.
More precisely, the efficacy of curcumin that inhibits the NSCLC was attributed to the mediation of pathways involving in promoting tumor invasion.
Additionally, according to the Shanxi Province Tumor Hospital study, curcumin inhibited the A549 cell proliferation also was found by decreasing intracellular ROS levels and increasing SOD and gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) activity passcode with cancer cells apoptosis.
The results strongly suggested that curcumin-induced reduction of A549 viability. by inhibiting the expression of oxidative stress.
Taken altogether, turmeric processed abundantly bioactive compound curcumin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer, 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.
