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.
