                            Respiratory Disease 

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.
Restrictive lung diseases or restrictive ventilatory defects
Restrictive lung disease is a condition marked most obviously by a reduction in total lung capacity. A restrictive ventilatory defect may be caused by a pulmonary deficit, such as pulmonary fibrosis (abnormally stiff, non-compliant lungs), or by non-pulmonary deficits, including respiratory muscle weakness, paralysis, and deformity or rigidity of the chest wall(1).

 
                                                  The Diagnosis 

If you are experience some of the above symptoms and if your doctor suspects that you have restrictive lung function, after recording your family history and completing the physical exam, the test which your doctor orders include
1. Chest CT scan and echocardiography
In the study to examine the frequency and spectrum of diseases associated with isolated reduction in the diffusing capacity of lung for carbon monoxide (D(Lco)) of the 38,095 patients who underwent PFTs during the study period, 179 (0.47%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.40%-0.54%) had isolated D(Lco) abnormalities. The 27 patients (15.1%; 95% CI, 10.2%-21.2%) who had also undergone chest CT and echocardiography within 1 month of PFTs form the study cohort reported herein. Their mean D(Lco) was 50% +/- 15% (95% CI, 45%-56%) with average normal pulse oxygen saturation at rest and mild hypoxemia with activity. Thirteen of the 27 patients (48%; 95% CI, 28.7%-68.1%) had underlying emphysema evident on CT. Eleven of these 13 patients had emphysema associated with a restrictive lung process. The 14 patients without emphysema had interstitial lung disease, pulmonary vascular disease, and other isolated findings(18).
2. Utility of cardiopulmonary exercise testing
Restrictive lung disease occurs commonly in patients with neuromuscular disease.Exercise testing is mandatory because pulmonary function tests at rest are not reliable for the diagnostic evaluation and functional characterisation of these patients. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) with measurement of gas exchange is the favoured tool. It is an excellent method to investigate exercise dyspnea, describe altered physiological response to exercise and characterise the involved organ systems heart, lung and muscle(19).
3. FEV1/FVC ratio test
The aim of the test is to analyze the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC). In patients with restrictive lung disease, ratio is higher than 80% as the decline in FVC is more than that of FEV1. In the study use of clinical and spirometry findings in order to distinguish between the restrictive and nonspecific patterns of pulmonary function test results in patients with low FVC and a normal or elevated FEV1/FVC ratio, showed that the most common causes of a nonspecific pattern were obstructive disorders, congestive heart failure, obesity, bronchiolitis, interstitial diseases, and neuromuscular disorders. In patients given a working diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis, pleural disease, or chest wall disease, the positive predictive value (PPV) for restriction was >or= 90%. In males, an FVC <or= 60% of predicted had a PPV for restriction of 98.8%. In females, the restrictive pattern was found in 84.4% of those with an FVC <or= 50% of predicted. A difference of >or= 0% between the FEV1% and the FVC% had a PPV for restriction of 89.5%. After performing logistic regression, we developed a point scale for predicting the restrictive pattern(20).
4. Spirometry
Spirometry measures the flow and volume of air entering and leaving the lungs. It is used to assess ventilatory function and differentiates between normality and diseases causing obstructive and possibly restrictive defects(21).

The smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of  Bipolar Disorder (Manic-Depressive)

Yield: 2 serving (about 8 ounce each)
1/4 cup olive
1/2 cups broccoli
3/4 cup grape
1 cup mineral water

1. Place tall ingredients in a blender and puree about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed.
3. Serve immediately

The finding of a natural source for reduced risk and treatment of  Bipolar Disorder (Manic-Depressive) with no adverse effects has encountered many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially the promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in either large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Bipolar disorder (manic-depressive) is a condition of mood swing not driven by the events of life, but as a result of abnormal gene or certain brain circuits could underlie bipolar of that can impair daily functioning and normal functioning at work by alternating periods of elation and depression. Some researchers suggested that the oxidative stress induced cell damage may also influence as a pathophysiology of bipolar mood disorder patients(1).

Recent studies back by clinical trials and studies from respectable institutions, suggested that  omega-3 fatty acids(2) found in olive, alpha-lipoic acid found in broccoli(5) and mineral water(8) induced by cherry may be the next generation of therapeutic ingredient for reduced risk and treatment of Bipolar Disorder.

Olive is belongings to the the family Oleaceae, native to the coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean Basin and south end of the Caspian Sea. Its fruit, is also called the olive and the source of olive oil. According to the The University of Melbourne, in review of the literature data base suggested that Omega-3 fatty acids may play an important role for treatment of Bipolar Disorder(2).

Dr. Lin PY and Dr. Su KP., researchers at the Chang Gung University College of Medicine said,"our meta-analysis showed significant antidepressant efficacy of omega-3 PUFAs, it is still premature to validate this finding due to publication bias and heterogeneity"(3), in a meta-analytic review of double-blind, placebo-controlled trials.

In backing to the use of Omega 3 fatty acids for treatment of Bipolar Disorder, Dr. and colleagues at the suggested, strong evidence in epidemiological studies exhibited the substantial relationship between omega-3 PUFAs and depression plausibly in diverse populations(4).

Broccoli is a mustard/cabbage plant, belongings to the family Brassicaceae. It has large flower heads, usually green in color surrounded by leaves and evolved from a wild cabbage plant on the continent of Europe. In Oxidative stress induced Bipolar Disorder, Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) found abundantly in broccoli, exhibited a possible antimanic effect, through inhibited oxidative stress and neurotrophic factors involved in the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder (BD)(5).

In neuropsychiatric disorders, Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) displays a possible therapeutic neuroprotective effect against mitochondrial dysfunction when used conjunction with acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR), according to the Biological Psychiatry Laboratory, McLean Hospital(6).

In support of the effectiveness of (ALA) against Bipolar Disorder

Dr. Nierenberg AA and researchers at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston suggested in the treatment of bipolar patients with frequently relapse within 12 months of their previous mood episode, inhibition of mitochondrial dysfunction and potential MMs by alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), may be the best in reduced the pathophysiology of bipolar disorder(7).

Mineral water, a major source of lithium have found to be effective in preventing and treating Bipolar disorder(8).

Dr. Ketter TA, and colleagues at the Stanford University School of Medicine, in the comparison of the efficacy of quetiapine and lithium in acute mania, suggested the possibly greater efficacy for quetiapine compared with lithium in acute bipolar depression and in prevention of recurrent (particularly depressive) episodes(9).

In a single-blind, randomised controlled trial on a cohort of 61 participants following first episode mania, early treatment with of lithium treatment may benefit the trajectory of cognition, such as verbal fluency in young people with bipolar disorder, according to the joint study lead by the Centre for Youth Mental Health, University of Melbourne(10).

The effectiveness of ingredients of olive, broccoli and mineral water should mimic the similar efficiency of their phytochemicals. It is hard to convince people that a enjoyable and delicious smoothie loved by everyone in the hot Summer day may consist the therapeutic values for reduced risk and treatment of some acute and chronic illness even they are back the clinical trials and studies by respectable institutions.
People who are at increased risk of  Bipolar Disorder due to family history, gene mutation, psychological problem.. .....should drink at least one serving daily and people with  Bipolar Disorder should drink the juices as much as they can, depending to digestive toleration.
Change of life style and diet pattern are also recommended.

                            Respiratory Disease 

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.
Restrictive lung diseases or restrictive ventilatory defects
Restrictive lung disease is a condition marked most obviously by a reduction in total lung capacity. A restrictive ventilatory defect may be caused by a pulmonary deficit, such as pulmonary fibrosis (abnormally stiff, non-compliant lungs), or by non-pulmonary deficits, including respiratory muscle weakness, paralysis, and deformity or rigidity of the chest wall(1).

 
                                      The Risk Factors and Diseases Associated to

Risk factors
1. Second hand smoke and genetic influence
Cigarette smoke not only causes Respiratory Disease, including Restrictive lung disease but also can influence early immune function as a potential to interact with other genetic factors and environmental risk factors to influence disease propensity(10).
2. Obesity
Obesity, particularly severe central obesity, affects respiratory physiology both at rest and during exercise as a result of ventilatory defect due to reductions in expiratory reserve volume, functional residual capacity, respiratory system compliance and impaired respiratory system. In the study by National Taiwan University Hospital, showed that obesity may also impair upper airway mechanical function and neuromuscular strength, and increase oxygen consumption, which in turn, increase the work of breathing and impair ventilatory drive. The combination of ventilatory impairment, excess CO(2) production and reduced ventilatory drive predisposes obese individuals to obesity hypoventilation syndrome(11).
3. Race
African Americans are at higher risk than white race in development of Restrictive lung disease.
4. Age
As the disease is a result of progression over prolonged period of time, most patients with restrictive lung disease are older than 50 years.
5. Etc.

Diseases associated with restrictive lung diseases
1. Heart diseases
In the study to explore the association of COPD and restrictive lung function impairment, respectively, with heart diseases in the general population in a cross-sectional study of 642 randomly selected 22- to 72-year-old subjects in northern Swede, found that there is a strong association between COPD and cardiovascular diseases and indicates a strong association between restrictive lung function and heart diseases. Both obstructive and restrictive lung function impairments were common among subjects with heart diseases and vice versa(12).
2. Ulcerative colitis
There is an association between ulcerative colitis and lung disease in which patients have chronic cough and show hyperplastic and inflammatory changes in their bronchial mucosa, according to the study by
Guy’s Hospital and Brook General Hospital(13).
3. Syringomyelia and syringobulbia
There is a report of three patients with syringomyelia and syringobulbia who developed severe respiratory complications. In neurological examination showed evidence of IXth and Xth cranial nerve involvement with dysphagia and dysphonia, but there were no complaints of serious sleep difficulties. Two patients died during sleep and the other was resuscitated during a nap. All patients showed moderate restrictive ventilatory defects with reduced maximal buccal pressures and one also showed a low ventilatory response to CO2 rebreathing(14).
4. Sarcoidosis
In the study to assess various lung function indices, including C(L,s) and D(L,CO), as markers of functional abnormality in sarcoidosis patients from 830 consecutive patients referred for lung function tests with a diagnosis of sarcoidosis (223 in stage I, 486 in stage II and 121 in stage III), found that
Normal total lung capacity was found in 772 (93%) patients. Of these cases, 24.5% had a low C(L,s) and 21.5% had a low D(L,CO). At least one abnormality was observed in 39.3% of these patients, whereas, in restrictive patients, this figure was 88%. Airway obstruction was present in 11.7% of cases(15).
5. Neuromuscular disease
The earliest sign of respiratory compromise in the patient with neuromuscular disease is nocturnal hypoventilation, which progresses over time to include daytime hypoventilation and eventually the need for full-time mechanical ventilation(16).
6. Other diseases
According to the study by Department of Public Health and Clinical Medicine, Umeå University, in restrictive lung function the prevalence of chronic rhinitis, cardiovascular disease, hyperlipemia and diabetes was higher compared to in Nlf (41.0% vs 32.3%, p = 0.017, 59.0% vs 41.0%, p<0.001, 29.2% vs.12.9%, p = 0.033, 20.9% vs 8.6%, p <0.001). In COPD and heart disease, 62.5% had chronic rhinitis and/or GERD, while in Nlf the corresponding proportion was 42.5%(17).

The Incredible and Effective smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of Celiac disease

Yield: 2 serving (about 8 ounce each)
1 1/4 cups tomatoes
1/4 cup olive
1 cup carrot juice

1. Place all ingredients in a blender and puree about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed.
3. Serve immediately

The finding of a natural source for treatment of  Celiac disease has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in either large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Celiac disease is a condition of damaging the lining of the small intestine as a result of an autoimmune disorder. Some researchers indicated thesequence of alpha-gliadin (amino acids 31-49) is one of the triggers of the immune system in celiac spruewas because if its toxicity(1). Other suppose the theory of oxidative stress may play an important role in the progression of the disease(2).

Olive is belongings to the the family Oleaceae, native to the coastal areas of the eastern Mediterranean Basin and south end of the Caspian Sea. Its fruit a main source of olive oil., is also called the olive with abundant long chain ω-3 fatty acids, plant flavonoids and carotenoids(7) of which may play important role in treating patient with CD.

According to University of Pécs, n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFA) is associated to deficiency of Omega 3 fatty acids  in patients with Celiac disease (CD(3). 

The proper diet for CD caused by permanent intolerance to gluten/gliadin (prolamin)(4)may include the components of long chain ω-3 fatty acids, plant flavonoids, and carotenoids in modulation of oxidative stress, gene expression and production of inflammatory mediators(4)
Dr, Gmoshinskiĭ IVand Dr. Mazo VK. said," Fatty acids of the omega-3 and omega-6 series as well as histidine were found to change the permeability for the PEG-4000")(5) of that can reduce the risk of CD, if a therapy can alter the abnormally increased intestinal permeability(6).

Tomato with sources of lycopene, flavonoids and carotenoids is a red, edible fruit, genus Solanum, belongings to family Solanaceae, native to South America. Because of its health benefits, tomato is grown world wide for commercial purpose and often in green house.

  

Other than the abnormally increased intestinal permeability, some researchers suggested additional relative risk to disease may also be due to abnormal epithelial cell infiltration by several lymphocyte subsets involved immune deficiency status such as pro inflammatory cytokines(9) of which can be controlled by lycopene, quercetin and tyrosol as non toxic agents involved in Celiac disease(8).

Dr. Cerf-Bensussan N. professor at the Université Paris Descartes said, "recent worrk indicates that dietary factors, including vitamin A and breast milk feeding, can protect against the development of harmful responses to dietary protein"(10) of that can be inporant in prevention of autoimmunity induced risk of CD.

 Rich sources of Omega 3 fatty acids, lycopene, flavonoids and carotenoids  from olive, tomato and carrot may hold a potential  benefit for reduced risk and treatment of Celiac disease. The smoothie containing these ingredients in high amount should also mimic the similar effects in chronic use.
People at higher risk of Celiac disease due to genetic mutation causes of immune disorder should drink at least one serving daily and people with the disease should drink as much as they can, depending to the toleration of digestive system.

                            Respiratory Disease 

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.
Restrictive lung diseases or restrictive ventilatory defects
Restrictive lung disease is a condition marked most obviously by a reduction in total lung capacity. A restrictive ventilatory defect may be caused by a pulmonary deficit, such as pulmonary fibrosis (abnormally stiff, non-compliant lungs), or by non-pulmonary deficits, including respiratory muscle weakness, paralysis, and deformity or rigidity of the chest wall(1).

 
                                                  The Causes

The causes of restrictive lung disease are unknown but some researchers suggested the below
1. Cystic fibrosis
Recurrence is almost certainly more frequent in cystic fibrosis, and in view of the hazards of complication and the danger of bilateral pneumothoraces pleurodesis has to be considered. Of the various methods available, parietal pleurectomy is undoubtedly associated with the lowest incidence of
recurrence (Bromley, 1967; Heckscher, Larsen, and Lassen, 1966) and does not usually cause a restrictive ventilatory defect (Gobbel et al., 1963), so that provided the procedure is without undue risk it is the method of choice in this disease. In all three cases reported here there were severe obstructive
and restrictive defects of ventilatory capacity, but there were no immediate and serious post-operative complications, probably because of energetic physiotherapy and chemotherapy, according to the study by Brompton Hospital(5).
2. Cigarette smoke and air pollution
Welders exposed for over 10 years showed a prevalence of respiratory abnormalities significantly higher than those exposed for less than 10 years (44.4 vs 13.3%) (P less than 0.01) thereby showing that occupational exposure to welding fumes resulted in increased prevalence of pulmonary impairment in the welders. Smoking also had a contributory role thereby suggesting an interaction between smoking and welding exposure on the prevalence of pulmonary impairment in the welders engaged in brassware industries(6). Other suggested that in the study to investigate symptomatology, lung function, and radiographic change over an average period of 8 to 9 yr, of Sixty-four subjects with asbestos-related diffuse pleural thickening attending the London Medical Boarding Centre for Respiratory Diseases, showed that Chest pain was a common symptom, occurring in over half of the subjects. Approximately one-third of the subjects had a history of pleurisy or pleural effusion. Full long function, available in all cases, showed a highly significant decrement (p < 0.001) compared with predicted values in all variables except gas transfer coefficient (Kco) at initial presentation, consistent with a restrictive ventilatory defect(7).
3. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited connective tissue disorder characterized by bone fragility, multiple fractures and significant chest wall deformities. In the study of seven patients with severe OI type III, 15 with moderate OI type IV and 26 healthy subjects, found that the restrictive respiratory pattern of Osteogenesis Imperfecta is closely related to the severity of the disease and to the sternal deformities. Pectus carinatum characterizes OI type III patients and alters respiratory muscles coordination, leading to chest wall and rib cage distortions and an inefficient ventilator pattern. OI type IV is characterized by lower alterations in the respiratory function(8).
4. Connective tissue diseases
In the study to perform PFT in rheumatoid arthritic patients without pulmonary involvement and to identify variables related to changes in PFT over 5 years of follow-up in 82 patients (21 men, 61 women), found that among the 67 surviving patients, 38 (56.7%) agreed to participate in a follow-up study. The initial PFT revealed normal PFT in only 30 patients (36.6%); an obstructive ventilatory defect in 2 (2.4%), a small airway defect in 12 (17%), a restrictive ventilatory defect in 21 (25.6%), and reduced DLco in 17 (20.7%). Among the 38 patients participating in the 5 year follow-up study, 8 developed respiratory symptoms, one patient had a new obstructive ventilatory defect, one patient developed a restrictive ventilatory defect, and 5 patients had a newly developed small airway defect(9).

The finding the natural ingredients for treatment of insomnia is considered as a dream of many scientist to replace the long usage adverse effect of conventional medicine to other organs in the body.
Unfortunately, many compounds found effective in initial studying failed to confirm the potential in large sample size and multi center.

Recent studies suggested that combination of kiwifruit(1) may hold a key of ingredients for reduced the risk and treatment of sleep disorder, particular insomnia.

Insomnia is a sign and symptom of sleep disorder and defined as a condition in which a person has a difficulty falling asleep and/or staying asleep or sleep of poor quality that can lead to substantial impairments in the quality of life and functional capacity of an individual. Most adults have experienced insomnia sometimes in their life. According to statistic, more than 30% of the population suffers from insomnia, one in three people suffer from some form of insomnia during their lifetime and women suffer from insomnia more often than men.

Kiwifruit also best hnown as kiwi or Chinese gooseberry, is a species of A. chinensis belong to the family Actinidia, subgroup of the flavonoids and native to Southern China.

According to the Taipei Medical Uni-versity, kiwifruit consumption showed to improve sleep onset, duration, and efficiency in adults after 4 weeks(1).Also in animal study, Oral administration (125-1000mg/kg) of green (GRPE, Actinidia deliciosa) and gold (GOPE, Actinidia chinensis) induced decrease in sleep latency and an increase in sleep duration in pentobarbital-treated mice in a dose-dependent manner(2).

Melatonin intake can improve sleep quality, pain and pain threshold. According to the study by the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) in comparison with amitriptyline suggested that melatonin reduced significantly pain on pain score on the Visual Analog Scale compared with amitriptyline alone, through increased the inhibitory endogenous pain-modulating system(4)


In a clinical crossover study of 30 healthy volunteers consumed selected fruits one at a time, with a 1 week wash-out period between fruits, until completing all six fruits showed that consumption of some tropical fruits have significant effects on melatonin production(5).

Dr. Lyseng-Williamson KA in the assessement of aging and insomnia said." melatonin PR 2 mg 1-2 h before bedtime was associated with significant improvements relative to placebo in many sleep and daytime parameters, including sleepquality and latency, morning alertness and health-related quality of life"(3).

Pineapple is a species of Ananas Comos. belong to the family Bromeliaceae and native to southern Brazil and Paraguay. Today it is widely cultivated for commercial and its rich of vitamins and mineral and digesting enzyme bromelin which seems to help digestion at the end of a high protein meal. It is second only to banana as America's most favourite tropical fruit

Dr. Johns NP and colleagues at the Khon Kaen University said," selected fruits(pineapple, orange and banana) consumption may reduce age-related melatonin reduction problems such as sleeplessness and illnesses involving oxidative damage"(6).

Orange is a species of Citrus Sinensis, belong to the family Rutaceae and native to the Southeast Asia. Orange is round citrus fruits with finely-textured skins, orange in color and one of most popular fruits in the world.

The increased levels of melatonin content during alcoholic fermentation of orange juice may hold a key to attenuate the melatonin due to ageing(7).

Dr. Huang X and Dr. Mazza G. said," orange had the highest melatonin content" in the the direct analysis of initial methanol extracts was compared with further ethyl acetate extraction(8).

Taking altogether, intake of combination of pineapple, orange, banana and kiwifruit induced the production of melatonin of that improved the sleep pattern and reduced significantly pain on pain score may be beneficiary for treatment of insomnia.

People who are at risk of insomnia due to aging may drink one or 2 servings a day, people with

insomnia should drink as much as they can, depending to the digestive alternation.

                            Respiratory Disease

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.
Restrictive lung diseases or restrictive ventilatory defects
Restrictive lung disease is a condition marked most obviously by a reduction in total lung capacity. A restrictive ventilatory defect may be caused by a pulmonary deficit, such as pulmonary fibrosis (abnormally stiff, non-compliant lungs), or by non-pulmonary deficits, including respiratory muscle weakness, paralysis, and deformity or rigidity of the chest wall(1).

 
                                                  The Symptoms

1. Dyspnea (shortness of breath)
Patients with obstructive and restrictive ventilatory abnormalities suffer from exercise intolerance and dyspnea. Breathing pattern components (volume, flow, and timing) during incremental exercise may provide further insight in the role played by dynamic hyperinflation in the genesis of dyspnea parameters(2).
2. Wheezing
Wheezing occurs during breathing, as a result of some parts of the respiratory tree must be narrowed or obstructed due to inflammation of the airways expiration causes of a blockage in the airways or lungs.
3. Chronic coughing
Chronic cought is a insistently repetitive or continuous cough last longer than eight weeks.
According to the study of 10 patients with ulcerative colitis, all of whom were non-smokers, presented with a productive cough. In six, the chest radiograph was normal and cough was the only symptom; three of these patients had a minor obstructive ventilatory defect on testing. Four patients complained
of exertional dyspnoea and had both an abnormal chest radiograph with bilateral pulmonary shadows and a mixed obstructive and restrictive ventilatory defect(3).
4. Coughing up blood
It may be a result due to bleeding of the upper Respiratory tract or lung tumor.
5. Chest pain
Half of patients with respiratory Diseases are experience symptoms of chest pain(4).
6. Etc.
