The smoothie for prevention and treatment of Gallstones
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 1/2 cups orange
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams of green tea and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and let cool to room temperature)

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 Gallstones has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Gallstones are crystalline concretion, hard, pebble-like deposits formed in side the gallbladder, resulting in obstruction of the biliary tree which can lead to infection of the bile ducts with symptoms of constant pain, biliary coli, etc.

Recent studies back by well known institutions proposed, the combination of Green Tea,and Orange may be the next generation of natural ingredients for prevention and treatment of Gallstones.
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. According to the Shanghai Cancer Institute, tea consumption was inversely associated with risk of ...... gallstone disease among females(1).
In the study to identify dietary factors and lifestyle patterns among southern Indian patients with GS disease, suggested that less frequent green tea and coffee intake are associated to higher risk of forming of gallstones(2).
Vitamin C found abundantly in orange is found to modify bile cholesterol crystallization process, the first step in cholesterol gallstone formation(3). Dr. Gustafsson U and colleagues also suggested that the influence the conditions for cholesterol gallstone formation in humans(4).
In an observational, population-based study of 2129 subjects aged 18-65 years randomly selected from the general population in southern Germany, proposed regular vitamin C supplementation might exert a protective effect on the development of gallstones(5).

Taking altogether, the combination of Green Tea and Orange may process the activities in prevention and treatment of Gallstones

People who are at higher risk of  Gallstones forming due to family history, dietary pattern, .... should drink 1 serving daily and people with Gallstones should drink as much as they can, depending to digestive toleration.
Life style and diet pattern changed are 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,.

                   Pleural disease: Pneumothorax

The pleura is a thin tissue covered by a layer of cells (mesothelial cells) that surrounds the lungs and lines the inside of the chest wall.
Pneumothorax is a condition of collection of air within the pleural cavity, from either the outside or from the lung of which affect the lung breathing.

The Diseases associated to Pneumothorax

1. Intraventricular hemorrhage
Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is one of the major causes of the cerebral palsy and mental retardation. Prevention and early management of these neurologic developmental problems will require determining the perinatal risk factors associated with this clinical entity. Pneumothorax increase the risk of IVH, and cause of pneumothorax has an important effect in severity of IVH(30).
2. Swyer-James Syndrome
There is a report of a 21-year-old man with a history of bronchial asthma during childhood presented with left recurrent pneumothorax(31).
3. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM)
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare lung disease of unknown etiology, described since 1918 associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC-LAM) and are reported sporadically (S-LAM). There is a report of 2 patients with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) in an admission of the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Distrito Federal, México, both present with spontaneous pneumothorax(32).
4. Osteosarcoma
Spontaneous pneumothorax is a rare manifestation of primary lung cancer or metastasis. It is estimated that < 1% of all cases of spontaneous pneumothorax are tumor-associated and metastatic osteogenic or soft-tissue sarcomas are associated most commonly with pneumothorax especially in the setting of cytotoxic chemotherapy or radiotherapy. There is a report of three pediatric cases with osteosarcoma that developed spontaneous pneumothorax during chemotherapy with a review of the literature. Two of them had lung metastasis at the time of the detection of pneumothorax and the remaining patient was found to have a bronchopleural fistula(33).
5. Tumours of the lung
Tumours of the lung, primary or secondary, may occasionally be complicated by a pneumothorax, and on rare occasions this may be the presenting feature. Metastatic tumours associated with pneumothorax arise usually from bone or soft tissue sarcomas and hence are more common in the young(34).
6. Interstitial pneumonia
Secondary pneumothorax occurring in interstitial lung disease cases is a refractory and life-threatening condition, because of compromised lung function. There is a report of a 70-year-old woman with interstitial pneumonia was referred to our hospital after treatment failure for pneumothorax associated with empyema(35).
7. Lung infection caused by Mycobacterium marinum
Mycobacterium marinum is a waterborne mycobacterium that commonly infects fish and amphibians worldwide, but transmission to humans can occasionally occur, typically as a granulomatous skin infection following minor hand trauma. There is a report of a case in August 2008, an 81-year-old man was admitted to a hospital for detailed examination of weight loss and an abnormal shadow on chest imaging found to be M. marinum-associated pneumonia and pneumothorax(36).

The smoothie for prevention and treatment of Hemochromatosis

Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 1/2 cups grape
1 tsp Turmeric powder
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams of green tea and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and let cool to room temperature)

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 Hemochromatosis has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Hemochromatosis is a hereditary disorder with iron salts deposited in the tissues, leaded to liver damage, diabetes mellitus, and bronze discoloration of the skin.

Recent studies back by well known institutions proposed, Grape, Turmeric and  Green Tea may be the next generation of natural ingredients for prevention and treatment of Gilbert’s Syndrome. Dr. Isa HM and Dr. Mohamed AM. said, "Neonatal hemochromatosis is a rare liver disease of newborns with a spectrum of clinical severity......The use of antioxidant therapy helps to improve the outcome"(3).

Resveratrol, phytochemical in the class of Stilbenoids, found abundantly in blueberry and grape inhibited abnormal iron metabolism and directly protected the liver from iron-mediated injury through its pleotropic antioxidant properties(1).
According to joint study lead by the University of Alberta, resveratrol ameliorated the burden from iron-overload cardiomyopathy at early and chronic stages of iron-overload(2).

Silybin, an antioxidant found abundantly in Turmeric, a yellow powder and used as a spice in curry dishes may be beneficiary for patient with Hemochromatosis. According to King's College London, silybin reduced iron absorption in patients with hereditary haemochromatosis through reduction in the postprandial increase in serum iron (AUC±s.e.)(4).

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. According to the der Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität, regular tea drinking with meals reduces the frequency of phlebotomies required in the management of patients with haemochromatosis. due to its inhibition of intestinal absorption of non-haem iron(5).

Dr. Borch-Iohnsen B, in the study of Primary haemochromatosis diet said," (regular) tea or coffee with meals will reduce iron absorption"(6).

Taking altogether, the combination of Grape, Turmeric and Green Tea may process the activities in reduced risk and treatment of patient with Hemochromatosis.

People with gene mutation of  Hemochromatosis due to family history, genetic mutation, .... should drink 1 serving daily and people with Hemochromatosis induced live disease should drink as much as they can, depending to digestive toleration.
Life style and diet pattern changed are 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,.

                   Pleural disease: Pneumothorax

The pleura is a thin tissue covered by a layer of cells (mesothelial cells) that surrounds the lungs and lines the inside of the chest wall.
Pneumothorax is a condition of collection of air within the pleural cavity, from either the outside or from the lung of which affect the lung breathing.

The Complications

1. Recurrence
Recurrent Pneumothorax is considered as one of the complications of patients with previous Pneumothorax. According to the study by the University of Thessaly, there is a report of recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax in a 42 years old woman with pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis(22).
2. Persistent air-leak
Persistent air-leak in patients with spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) is not uncommon and can happen. In the study by the Tan Tock Seng Hospital, indicated that surgery is necessary for patients with air-leak persisting beyond 14 days, while favouring a conservative approach before this time, as the majority of air-leaks (especially in patients with primary pneumothorax) would resolve by 14 days(23).
3. Decrease of extracellular fluid volume (ECF)
In the study to test the hypothesis that persistent pneumothorax of greater than or equal to 6 days duration causes a decrease of extracellular fluid volume (ECF) in rabbits, showed that reduction of ECF in 53% of animals with pneumothorax plus hypoxemia (range -47% to +13%) and in 54% of animals with hypoxemia alone (range -26% to +25%). ECF declined in only 7% of normal controls and 20% of animals with pneumothorax without hypoxemia(24).
4. Hypoxemia
In the study to measure the Oxygen arterial partial pressure (PaO2) in 38 patients with idiopathic spontaneous pneumothorax (ISP) and in 20 of them 8-9 days after full expansion of the lung within 1-3 days by aspiration through chest tube drain, showed that the hypoxemia still observed after full expansion of the lung may be explained by the persistent small airway closure possibly due to increased surface tension and the subsequent transsudation still present in some peripheral air spaces(25).
5. Cardiac arrest
Tension pneumothorax during ventilating bronchoscopy for foreign body removal is a rare but life-threatening complication. There is a report of a case of cardiac arrest caused by tension pneumothorax in a 9-month-old girl who underwent ventilating bronchoscopy for foreign body (peanut) removal(26).
6. Respiratory failure
There is a report of a three-year-old child underwent anesthesia for urologic surgery presented respiratory failure by bronchial obstruction by secretion, evolving to atelectasis and hypertensive pneumothorax, according to Hospital Infantil Darcy Vargas(27). Other study describes the rapid development of respiratory insufficiency and near fatal pulmonary failure in a 65-year-old female patient with COPD due to spontaneous tension pneumothorax(28).
7. Shock
there is a report of a case of shock and ipsilateral pulmonary oedema after tube thoracostomy for spontaneous pneumothorax, according to the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital(29).

Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 1/2 cups blueberry
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams of green tea and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes. Set aside for cooling to room temperature)

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 scabies has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Scabies is an itchy, highly contagious skin infestation caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei, accompanied with glomerulonephritis and rheumatic fever.

Green tea has been a precious drink in traditional Chinese culture and used exceptional in socialization for more than 4000 thousand years used in traditional Chinese medicine for treatment of variety of diseases, including cancers and heart diseases. According to the Taiyo Kagaku Co. Ltd, green tea polyphenols are effective in inhibited development and growth of bacterial spores in tested Bacillus bacteria(1).
Epidemiologically, green tea catechins exhibited antimicrobial effects against various pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli(2), Propionibacterium Acnes, Propionibacterium Granulosum, Staphylococcus Aureus and Staphylococcus Epidermidis(3)

Cinnamon is a spice derived from the inner bark of tree, native to South East Asia, of over 300 species of the genus Cinnamomum, belongings to the family Lauraceae. The spice also processed anti microbial effect against many types of bacteria, including Listeria monocytogenes Scott A(4), L. monocytogenes, S. enterica(5), Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus(6).

Strawberries is a genius of Fragaria × ananassa belongs to the family Roseaceae, grown all over the world with suitable climate for commercial profits and for health benefits.Its aqueous extracts exhibited anti microbial effect against the expression of the virulence factors of Vibrio cholerae strains(7), Staphylococcus bacteria. Salmonella bacteria(8).

Taking altogether, The combination of Green Tea, Cinnamon and Strawberry may offer the potential effect in prevention of the onset and treatment of Scabies, through their anti bacterial effect.
 People who are at increased risk of Scabies are wise to drink at least one serving daily. People with  Scabies, should drink the juice 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,.

                   Pleural disease: Pneumothorax

The pleura is a thin tissue covered by a layer of cells (mesothelial cells) that surrounds the lungs and lines the inside of the chest wall.
Pneumothorax is a condition of collection of air within the pleural cavity, from either the outside or from the lung of which affect the lung breathing.

The Risk factors

1. Gender, age and Influence of height
The risk of primary spontaneous pneumothorax was found to be greatest among persons 25 to 34 years old of each sex and greater for men than women, although a gradient of risk with increasing height was found which seemed to explain much of the male predominance in this condition(15).
2. Smoking
In the study of a sample consisted of 15,204 persons domiciled in the same circumscribed area (County of Stockholm). The annual incidence of first spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) in the admission area is 6/100,000 for women and 18/100,000 for men, showed that showed that smoking increased the relative risk of contracting a first spontaneous pneumothorax approximately ninefold among women and 22-fold among men and that there is a striking, statistically significant (p less than 0.001) dose-response relationship between smoking and the occurrence of SP(16).
3. Genetics
Certain genetic mutation in the family may increase risk of pneumothorax
a. N1303K mutation on CFTR gene
Bilateral pneumothorax is rarely seen and is a predictor of poor prognosis. There is a report of a newborn presenting with bilateral pneumothorax whose diagnosis was cystic fibrosis with N1303K mutation on CFTR gene(17).
b. BHD gene
Germline mutations of the BHD gene are involved in some patients with multiple lung cysts and pneumothorax(18).
c. FLCN gene
There is a report of a novel in-frame deletion mutation in FLCN gene in a Korean family with recurrent primary spontaneous pneumothorax(19).
4. Respiratory distress (RD)
In the study to describe respiratory distress (RD) in full-term neonates hospitalized in the NICU and to determine risk factors in this population for pneumothorax, indicated that RD at term exposes the infant to high morbidity and pneumothorax, especially if born outside of a level III maternity unit and absence of labor. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22381669
5. A history of pneumothorax
People who has had one pneumothorax are at at increased risk of recurrent pneumothorax.
6. An illicit drug history
there is a report of a case of a 27-year-old man with an illicit drug history who presented with acute left-sided pleuritic chest pain and dyspnoea managed as for a spontaneous pneumothorax with aspiration and subsequent chest drain insertion following a chest radiograph(20).
6. Other risk factor
According to study, a history of smoking, the existence of comorbidities, previous surgery for ipsilateral spontaneous pneumothorax (ISP), and hand stitching increase the risk of postoperative recurrence of the diseases(21).

The smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of Cervicitis 
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 1/2  cups grape
1 tsp curcumin
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)

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. Add more green tea drink if needed
3. Serve immediately

The finding of a natural source for reduced risk and treatment of cervicitis to replace the conventional medicine 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.
Cervicitis is an inflammation of the cervix.
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.
According to the The Catholic University of Korea, green tea extracts (polyphenon E; poly E and (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate [EGCG]) exhibited anti human papilloma virus (HPV) infected cervical lesions at a a 200 mg of poly E taken orally every day for eight to 12 weeks(1).
The phytochemicals of epigallocatechin gallate and polyphenols E also inhibited immortalized HPV-immortalized cervical epithelial cells and cancer cell growth. induced apoptosis through cell cycle change, according Guangxi Medical University(2).

Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia. Its phytochemical curcumin can stimulate prevention of multiple sexually transmitted infections of cervix caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), HSV (herpes simplex virus) and HPV (human papilloma virus)(3).
According to the Air Force General Hospital of People's Liberation Army, curcumin induced apoptosis of HPV-positive human cervical cancer cells via the anti inflammatory/cellular tumor antigen NF-κB-p53-caspase-3 pathway(4).
In a phase II randomized controlled study,curcumin and curcumin containing polyherbal preparations have demonstrated anti-microbial and anti- viral properties against cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection(5).

Resveratrol is a phytochemical in the class of Stilbenoids, found abundantly in grape, etc. may also expressed immune modulating effects(6) against human papillomavirus (HPV)induced  inflammation(7) and malignant progression in neoplasms(8).

The effectiveness of  Green Tea, Curcumin and Grape may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for for Reduced Risk of Consequences of  cervicitis with little or no adverse effects.

Women who are at increased risk of Cervicitis due to sexual active,.... should take 1 - 2 servings daily and women with Cervicitis should take as much as they can depending to the digestive toleration.
Life style and dietary patter change are recommended.
