The smoothie for prevention and treatment of  polycystic kidney disease (Renal cystic disease) 
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
3/4 cup cooked tomato
1/2 cup peanut
1/4 cup olive
1 cup rice milk

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 Polycystic kidney disease (Renal cystic disease) 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.

Polycystic Kidney Disease is an inherited diseases with fluid-filled cysts developed on the kidney. According to the University of Kansas Medical Center, the disease is associated to risk factors of aging, in older persons with multiple cysts probably induced by potassium deficiency, congenital disorders, metabolic diseases, and toxic renal injury(1).

Recent studies back by well known institutions proposed, Cooked Tomato, Peanut and Olive may be the next generation of natural ingredients for reduced complications and treatment of Polycystic kidney disease.

Vitamin B3 , also known as niacin, is a water-soluble vitamin.Vitamin B3 found abundantly in peanut may benefit patient with polycystic kidney disease(2). According to C.J. Janovy, administration of Vitamin B3 to a neonate, toddler or adolescent will effectively prevent or delay cyst formation and can be used for a lifetime(2).
Dr. Al Adlouni A and Dr. Hertig A. Said, "Vitamin B3 exhibited anti  autosomal dominant effect  involed the develop of polycystic kidney disease"(3).

Omaga 3 fatty acids found abundantly in flax seed also attenuated the progression of polycystic kidney disease, through alternation of multiple steps in PKD pathogenesis(4). According to the University of Guelph, mice fed with an n-3 fatty acid-enriched diet (MaxEPA) for 60 days, showed a marked decrease in the proportion of kidney area occupied by cysts in male but not in female rat(5).
Dr. Yamaguchi T and colleagues in the study led by the University of Manitoba, said,"Dietary flax oil may therefore reduce disease progression via mitigation of oxylipin abnormalities"(6) in patients with renal diseases.

Retinoic acids all-trans retinoic acid (AT-RA) and 9-cis retinoic acid (9C-RA) with function as of vitamin A suppressed the activation of the poly cystic kidney disease-1 (PKD1) promoter in's attenuated the diseases' progression(7). 
 Dr.Yamane A and professors at the Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine, said," A 63-year-old APL patient, complicated by Child-Pugh class A liver cirrhosis and polycystic kidney (creatinine 3.2 mg/dL), was successfully treated with 45 mg/m(2)/day of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)"(8).

The effectiveness of  Cooked Tomato, Peanut and Olive may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for reduced risk, complications and treatment of polycystic kidney disease (Renal cystic disease) with little or no adverse effects.

People who are at high risk of polycystic kidney disease (Renal cystic disease) due to aging, weaken reno function... should drink at least one serving daily and women with polycystic kidney disease (Renal cystic disease) should drink no more than 4 servings daily, depending to digestive toleration.

Life style and diet pattern change are necessary.

                                          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: Pleural Plaques

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.
Pleural plaques is a medical condition as a result of exposure to asbestos that lead to accumulated plagues within the pleural cavity(a). Many diseases such as pneumonia, breast cancer, and heart failure can affect the pleural space.,therefore, it is often a secondary effect of another disease process.

                               Diagnosis

If you are experience certain of above symptoms and your doctor suspect that you may have develop pleural plaques, after recording you family history including occupation and a complete physical examination, including listen to your lung to test for asbestosis, as the lungs affected by asbestosis often produce a particular dry, crackling sound and pulmonary function test. Other tests which your doctor orders may include
1. Chest X-ray and CT scans
Pleural plaques are asymptomatic focal thickenings of the pleura and considered the hallmark of asbestos exposure. In a retrospective study by the Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine using chest CT scans of 140 Japanese asbestos-exposed construction workers who have probable or definite findings of pleural plaque on CXR; firstly, we proposed plaque morphology-based classification for CXR findings, and then we examined if those classified findings could be confirmed as pleural plaques on CT scans. Our morphology-based classification of pleural plaque findings included nine types. The percentages of confirmed pleural plaques on CT scans by type (number of confirmed pleural plaque on CT/number of observed on CXR) were 93% (40/43) for straight, 89% (56/63) for diamond, 88% (7/8) for double, 83% (19/23) for tapered medially, 80% (20/25) for parallel, 77% (23/30) for crescent, 79% (11/14) for tenting, 72% (18/25) for tapered-laterally (long type), and 0% (0/9) for tapered-laterally (short type). When added to the ILO classification, morphology-based classification of CXR pleural plaque findings makes its detection easier and hence chest radiograph continues to be a suitable tool for screening asbestos-related pleural plaques based on its simplicity, low radiation exposure, wide availability and cost-effectiveness(23).

Other in the review of results of the published studies concerning radiography or CT note that the great interobserver variability in the recognition of pleural plaques and asbestosis, indicating the need for adequate training of radiologists, and the importance of defining standardized, quantified criteria for CT abnormalities. The very low agreement between thoracic and general radiologists must be taken into account. The reading of CT scans in cases of occupational exposure to asbestos should be entrusted to thoracic radiologists or to general radiologists having validated specific training. A double interpretation of CT could be considered in medicosocial requests. CT is more sensitive than chest radiography in the detection of bronchial carcinoma but generates a great number of false positive results (96 to 99%)(24).

2. MRI
In the study to compare respiratory-gated high-spatial resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and radial MRI with ultra-short echo times with computed tomography (CT) in the diagnosis of asbestos-related pleural disease, by the German Cancer Research Center, indicated that high-resolution MR sequences and radial MRI achieve a comparable interobserver agreement in detecting pleural plaques and even a higher interobserver agreement in assessing pleural thickening, pleural effusion, and extrapleural fat when compared with CT(25).

The smoothie for reduced risk of Hypertensive nephrosclerosis

Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
3/4 cup celery
3/4 cup of apple with peel
1 cup green tea drink 1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams(2 tea bags) of green tea, a slice of ginger and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and set aside for cooling to room temperature)

1. Place the celery, apple with peels, green tea, 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

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. high blood pressure means raising pressure in your heart. If your blood pressure stays high over time it can damage the body in many ways.
Blood pressure medications have undoubtedly prevented many deaths from heart disease in the past 30 years, but also induced many irreversible adverse effects, including kidney damage.

Hypertensive nephrosclerosis is a kidney disease without causing severe damage to the kidney, in association with long-standing hypertension. The risk of hypertension  induced serious renal damage is low in diabetic patients.

Diet rich in fruits and vegetable and reduced intake of red meat, saturated fat and trans fat has shown to attenuated risk of hypertension(1). Recent study showed that celery(2) intake used conjunction with berries(3) and green tea(4) may be the potential drink for prevention and treatment of hypertension.

Celery is a species of Apium graveolens, belongings to the family Apiaceae, cultivated all around the globe as a vegetable. According to Chronic administration of hexanic, methanolic, and aqueous-ethanolic extracts of celery seed effectively exhibited an antihypertensive activity in chronic treatment of elevated BP in tested animals(5).
Dr. Dianat M and the research team at the Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences said," hydro-alcoholic celery leaf extract on systolic blood pressure (SBP), heart rate (HR) and lipid profile in animals' model of hypertension induced by fructose"(6)
3‑n‑butylphthalide (NBP), an phytochemical found in celery seed used in traditional Chinese medicine exhibited significantly antihypertensive and attenuated progression of hypertensive effects through decreased oxidative stress and the expression of pro‑inflammatory cytokines(7). 

Apple is the pomaceous fruit of the apple tree, a species of the rose family Rosaceae. It is one of the most widely cultivated tree fruits. With phytochemical flavonoids, apple and its peel inhibited angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in promoted the development of high blood pressure, Dr Balasuriya N and Dr. Rupasinghe HP. Suggested(8)According to the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, "Flavonoid (found abundantly in fruits and vegetable)(10) intake has been inversely associated with mortality from coronary heart disease and stroke,..... Lowering blood pressure through increased dietary consumption of dietary antioxidants(such as flavonoid) may decrease the rate of end-organ damage that is secondary to hypertension"(9).

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.

Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG), the main polyphenol presence in green tea is best known for its antioxidant and anti inflammatory effect. In animal model, the phytochemical exhibited anti hypertensive and progressive activity through reduction of oxidative stress in paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN), the Xi'an Jiaotong University Health Science Center study showed(11).

Dr. Yarmolinsky J and the research team at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, suggested that, intake of tea are shown to reduce blood pressure in individuals within prehypertensive and hypertensive ranges in the review of all relevant studies published from 1946 to September 27, 2013.(12).

Furthermore, green tea extract (GTE) inhibited the oxidative stress and ingiotensin (Ang) II induces endothelial dysfunction (ED) causes of hypertension through scavenging of superoxide anion generation, the University of Padova, insisted(13).

People who are at increased risk of hypertension due to family history .....should drink at least one cup daily and people with chronic hypertension should drink the juices at least 3 times a day, 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,.

                   Pleural disease: Pleural Plaques

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.
Pleural plaques is a medical condition as a result of exposure to asbestos that lead to accumulated plagues within the pleural cavity(a). Many diseases such as pneumonia, breast cancer, and heart failure can affect the pleural space.,therefore, it is often a secondary effect of another disease process.

                                                   Misdiagnosis


According to Nigel Askew from the article factory, there are five main asbestos diseases including asbestos cancer that can develop following exposure to asbestos fibres: malignant asbestos mesothelioma cancer, asbestos lung cancer, asbestosis, asbestos pleural thickening and asbestos pleural plaques, however, doctors who do not regularly diagnose asbestos disease can misdiagnose (or be slow to give a diagnosis) what the condition is. This can lead to sufferers of asbestos disease wrongly concluding they do not have a right to make an asbestos claim(20).

1. Pleural mesothelioma
In the study designed to examine the association between pleural plaques on computed tomography (CT) scan and the risk of pleural mesothelioma in a follow-up study of asbestos-exposed workers, indicated that a total of 17 incident cases of pleural mesothelioma were diagnosed. A statistically significant association was observed between mesothelioma and pleural plaques (unadjusted hazard ratio (HR) = 8.9, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.0 to 26.5; adjusted HR = 6.8, 95% CI = 2.2 to 21.4 after adjustment for time since first exposure and cumulative exposure index to asbestos)(19).

2. Asbestos-related pleural abnormalities
In the study to study the observer agreement in several asbestos-related pleural abnormalities and to define criteria to discriminate between pleural changes in workers with occupational disease, and those in controls, found that the extent, calcification and thickness were well-repeatable indicators of benign pleural pathology and thus their use in future classification systems in computed tomography is recommended. In our material, the extent of 45 cm(2) and the degree of calcification were helpful in discriminating between pleural changes in workers with occupational disease, and those in controls who also presented marked pleural pathology(21).

3. Parietal pleural plaques
According to the study lead by Svenes KB, in a series of 402 consecutive autopsies, parietal pleural plaques (PP) were found in 68 individuals above 40 years of age. The frequency of PP was 26.9% in males and 3.1% in females. In 28 cases chest roentgenographs taken shortly before death were available. These films were randomly mixed with chest roentgenographs from 33 subjects who had subsequently died and in whom no PP had been found at autopsy. All films were scrutinized by two experienced readers, ignorant of the case histories and autopsy findings. In less than half the PP cases was this diagnosis suggested from the roentgenological examination. On the other hand, the readers had 13 and 14 cases with positive or uncertain findings in the 33 cases with no PP found at autopsy(22)

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are medical condition mostly caused by work related occupations and working environment, affecting patients’ muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and nerves and developing over time. A community sample of 73 females and 32 males aged 85 and over underwent a standardised examination at home. Musculoskeletal pain was reported by 57% of those interviewed. A major restriction of joint movement range was frequent in the shoulder but uncommon in other joints(1).

Types of Musculo-Skeletal disorders in elder(2)

1. Osteoarthritis
2. Gout
3. Rheumatoid Arthritis
4. Polymalagia Arthritis
5. Cervical myleopathy and spinal canal stenosis
6. Osteoporosis
7. Low back pain
8. Fibromyalgia                    



                                                      Osteoarthritis


Osteoarthritis (OA), a form of arthritis, is defined as a condition of as a result of aging causes of wear and tear on a joint, affecting over 25 million people in the United States in alone. University of Porto Medical School indicated that one must understand the differences in prevalence and incidence estimates of osteoarthritis (OA), according to case definition, in knee, hip and hand joints(3).
The characteristics of osteoarthritis are aching pain(5), stiffness(6), or difficulty of moving the joint or joints(7). The pain usually gets worse in change of weather, at night and in the advanced diseases, the pain can occur even at rest(8). Today management of osteoarthritis (OA) focuses on pain relief and improved physical function through pharmacological, non pharmacological, and surgical treatments(4).


                               The Causes and Risk Factors
A. The Causes
1. Process of wear and repair
Osteoarthritis (OA), a widespread degenerative disease of skeletal joints(34) and is often associated with senescence in vertebrates. arising from long term wear and tear, heavy long-term use or specific injuries(35). Improper repair process of injure of joints can also result of symptoms of Osteoarthritis (OA)(36) in old age(37), according to TCM.

2. Nutrient deficiency and overload
Poor nutritional conditions experienced early in life are linked to greater prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA)(35)(38), such as vitamin D. On the other hand, nutrient overload and metabolic surplus, such as obesity may contribute to early onset of osteoarthritis (OA)(38).

3. Cartilage
Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue cushioned the ends of bones in your joints and allowed the joints to move smoothly. Rough or wears down cartilage due to aging or damage can causes pain due to bone in the joint rubbing against another bone(39)(40).
The above causes of Osteoarthritis (OA) may also be the result of injure(35), overuse(15)(16), Rheumatoid Arthritis(41), etc.
4. Etc.

B. The Risk factors
Aging changes in the musculoskeletal system contribute to the development of OA by making the joint more susceptible to the effects of other OA risk factors(39)(40)
1. Abnormal biomechanicsThe biomechanics of the foot and ankle is important to the normal function of the lower extremity(42). Abnormal biomechanics can cause abnormal stress and eventual breakdown of connective tissue and muscle(42) of that can lead to early onset of Osteoarthritis (OA)(43).

2. Joint injury and obesity
According to the University of Calgary, joint injury and obesity were associated with an increased risk of OA of the knee and hip(44). Dr. Rogers LQ and the research team at the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine indicated that the high and low joint stress from physical activity (PA)
ate associated to reduce risk of the disease(45). In obesity, according to Duke University Medical Center, it is one of the most significant, and potentially most preventable, risk factors for the development of osteoarthritis due to a strong association between body mass index and osteoarthritis of the hip, knee, foot and hand(46)(47).

3. Age-related sarcopenia(48)(49) and increased bone turnover(49) have found to be associated to the development of OA(49). Other suggested that Osteoarthritis development in the injured joints is caused by pathways of joint-related mechanisms and deconditioning of the musculoskeletal system(50). As well as intra-articular pathogenic processes initiated at the time of injury(51).

4. Normal Aging
Normal aging in humans is associated with declines in skeletal muscle mass and strength and increased muscle fatigability (sarcopenia)(52).

5. Muscle strength
Reduced muscle strength due to ageing, injure or other conditions is regarded as a risk factor for pain and disability in osteoarthritis (OA)(53)(54).


6. Gender
Women are susceptible to the greater risk for the development of osteoarthritis (OA), but research in sex and gender differences in osteoarthritis to date, may not be appreciated by the orthopedic community, according to Mayo Clinic(56)(57)

7. Genetic

Asian are at higher risk to develop osteoarthritis, according to research of Praxisklinik für Unfallchirurgie und Orthopädie(57)(58), due to genetic polymorphisms associated with osteoarthritis and related end-points(58).

8. Deformation of bone
People who were born with defective joints or cartilage are at increased risk of developing osteoarthritis(59)(60).

9. Physical activity
People who involve in activity such as sport are at higher risk to develop osteoarthritis, if injure(61).

10. Occupations
Certain occupations are associated to the increased risk of osteoarthritis, especially to workers involving repetitive movements that stress on a particular joint(61)(62).

11. Deficiency in DNA repair
Progeroid human DNA repair syndrome trichothiodystrophy may be associated to the to the development of osteoarthritis(63).

12. Other diseases and conditions may have a higher risk of developing the condition.
a. Gout
Gout is a type of arthritis as a result of uric acid builds up in blood causes of joint inflammation(64). According to a total of 4249 completed questionnaires returned (32%) from 359 attendees, 164 cases of gout were clinically confirmed, there is highly significant association existed between the site of acute attacks of gout and the presence of OA(65).

b. Rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic inflammatory disease, causing the attack of flexible (synovial) joints, inflammation of the surrounding tissues and many tissues and organs. Patients with heumatoid arthritis (RA) are associated to increase risk of OA due to progression of aging(66).

c. Paget’s disease of the bone
Paget’s disease of bone is a condition a chronic disorder of excessive and abnormal bone remodeling result in excessive breakdown and formation of bone tissue causing pain, misshapen bones, fractures, and arthritis in the joints near the affected bones(67) with prevalence trends of doubling each decade from the age of 50 onwards, causing bone pain, depending on skeletal sites involved and range from secondary osteoarthritis to malignant degeneration(68).

d. Septic arthritis
Septic arthritis is a condition of inflammation of a joint as a result of bacterial or fungal infection causes of osteoarthritis(69).

9. Etc.

Imaging of long term intake of delicious smoothies loved by many with the power of reduced risk and treatment of chronic illness with no one mentions about. In fact, it happens. Epidemiological studies with strong evidences suggested that blueberry oral administration hold a potential with therapeutic values for reduced risk of women who carry the mutation gene and treatment of breast cancer(*).

The curable smoothies are collection of recipes produced from natural sources, including organic fruits and vegetables, and some herbs which have been proven effectively for reduced risk and treatment for diseases and syndromes by scientific research of clinical trials and/or studies.

The finding of foods from natural sources has been a dream of scientists and scholars since ancient time. Socrates Said," Let foods be your medicine and let medicine be your foods". Let all of us all exercise the values of the past wisdom to build a letter living and living health while enjoining these delicious drinks.

Diabetic nephropathy is a form of progressive kidney disease caused by damage to the small veins in the kidneys' glomeruli. According to the Purdue University College of Pharmacy, antihypertensive therapy are recommendations for prevention of nephropathy in diabetic hypertensive patients(**).

The prevention of nephropathy in diabetic hypertensive patients

1. The Smoothie for reduced risk of hypertension 
The smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of  Hypertension

Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
3/4 cup celery
3/4 cup of apple with peel
1 cup green tea drink 1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams(2 tea bags) of green tea, a slice of ginger and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and set aside for cooling to room temperature)

1. Place the celery, apple with peels, green tea, 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

Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out blood. high blood pressure means raising pressure in your heart. If your blood pressure stays high over time it can damage the body in many ways.
Blood pressure medications have undoubtedly prevented many deaths from heart disease in the past 30 years, but also induced many irreversible adverse effects, including kidney damage.

Diet rich in fruits and vegetable and reduced intake of red meat, saturated fat and trans fat has shown to attenuated risk of hypertension(1). Recent study showed that celery(2) intake used conjunction with berries(3) and green tea(4) may be the potential drink for prevention and treatment of hypertension.

Celery is a species of Apium graveolens, belongings to the family Apiaceae, cultivated all around the globe as a vegetable. According to Chronic administration of hexanic, methanolic, and aqueous-ethanolic extracts of celery seed effectively exhibited an antihypertensive activity in chronic treatment of elevated BP in tested animals(5).

Dr. Dianat M and the research team at the Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences said," hydro-alcoholic celery leaf extract on systolic blood pressure (SBP), heart rate (HR) and lipid profile in animals' model of hypertension induced by fructose"(6)

3‑n‑butylphthalide (NBP), an phytochemical found in celery seed used in traditional Chinese medicine exhibited significantly antihypertensive and attenuated progression of hypertensive effects through decreased oxidative stress and the expression of pro‑inflammatory cytokines(7).
Apple is the pomaceous fruit of the apple tree, a species of the rose family Rosaceae. It is one of the most widely cultivated tree fruits. With phytochemical flavonoids, apple and its peel inhibited angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) in promoted the development of high blood pressure, Dr Balasuriya N and Dr. Rupasinghe HP. Suggested(8)According to the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, "Flavonoid (found abundantly in fruits and vegetable)(10) intake has been inversely associated with mortality from coronary heart disease and stroke,..... Lowering blood pressure through increased dietary consumption of dietary antioxidants(such as flavonoid) may decrease the rate of end-organ damage that is secondary to hypertension"(9).

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.

Epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCG), the main polyphenol presence in green tea is best known for its antioxidant and anti inflammatory effect. In animal model, the phytochemical exhibited anti hypertensive and progressive activity through reduction of oxidative stress in paraventricular nucleus of hypothalamus (PVN), the Xi'an Jiaotong University Health Science Center study showed(11).

Dr. Yarmolinsky J and the research team at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, suggested that, intake of tea are shown to reduce blood pressure in individuals within prehypertensive and hypertensive ranges in the review of all relevant studies published from 1946 to September 27, 2013.(12).

Furthermore, green tea extract (GTE) inhibited the oxidative stress and ingiotensin (Ang) II induces endothelial dysfunction (ED) causes of hypertension through scavenging of superoxide anion generation, the University of Padova, insisted(13).

People who are at increased risk of hypertension due to family history, Diabetic nephropathy,... .....should drink at least one cup daily and people with chronic hypertension should drink the juices at least 3 times a day, depending to digestive toleration.
Change of life style and diet pattern are also recommended.

2. The smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of diabetes
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)

1 3/4 cup whole food papaya
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams(2 tea bags) of green tea, a slice of ginger and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and set aside for cooling to room temperature)
1. Place whole food papaya, cinnamon and green tea drink 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 diabetes 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.

Diabetes is defined as a condition caused by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream to regulate the glucose. It is either caused by cells in 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

Cinnamon, a kitchen spicy in many cultures, may have gained many believers, including medical professions because of its anti diabetic effect, through regulating the blood glucose levels in healthy and diabetic subjects. According to herbalists, intake of 1/4 tsp. in the morning and evening may reduce the blood sugar significantly with little or no adverse effects.

The herb has been use in herbal and traditional medicine as anti-fungal and bacteria level to improve reproductive organ, prevent flatulence and intestinal cramping, treat indigestion, diarrhea, bad breath, headache, migraine, etc.(14).

According to the 2011 statistic from National Diabetes InformationClearinghouse (NDIC), among U.S. residents ages 65 years and older, 10.9 million, or 26.9 percent, had diabetes in 2010, about 215,000 people younger than 20 years had diabetes—type 1 or type 2—in the United States in 2010 and approximately, 1.9 million people ages 20 years or older were newly diagnosed with diabetes in 2010 in the United States.

In a total of 66 patients with type 2 diabetes study conducted by Xuhui District Central Hospital, showed a significant reduction of blood triglyceride levels in the low-dose group, after 3 months of oral administration(15)

Some researchers suggested that cinnamon extract may improve fasting blood glucose levels and glucose tolerance without altering the insulin secretion, through lower triglyceride and increased liver glycogen content and improved insulin action in liver tissues(16).

Dr. Kim SH and Dr. Choung SY. told PubMed "The effect of cinnamon in significantly increases insulin sensitivity, reduces serum, and hepatic lipids, and improves hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia possibly by regulating the PPAR(in regulation of metabolism (carbohydrate, lipid, protein))-medicated glucose and lipid metabolism"(17)

In support of the above, chromium(Cr) and polyphenols found in cinnamon(Cinnamomon cassia) indicated a improvement of glucose, insulin, cholesterol and HbA1c(Glucose lab test) in patients with type 2 diabetesfollowing Cr supplementation, in a double-blind placebo-controlled study(20).

Unfortunately, according to the Western University of Health Sciences, consumption of cinnamon is associated with a statistically significant decrease in levels of fasting plasma glucose, but insisted that high degree of heterogeneity may limit the ability to apply these results to patient care, due to the unclear preferred dose and duration of therapy(18)

A randomized clinical trial in which 70 Patients with type II diabetesassigned randomly two groups (35 in cinnamon and 35 in placebo group for the testing of the effect of cinnamon on the glucose level in blood, indicated an insignificant effect of using cinnamon on glucose level of diabetic patients and the herb should not be recommended to patients with type II diabetes depending on further studies(19).


People with Type II Diabetes may also be thinking to add whole food papaya into their diet. the recent study suggested(20) ,
The finding not only showed the effectiveness of unripe pawpaw fruit (Carica papaya) in inhibition α-amylase, α-glucosidase, but also induced lipid peroxidation in a dose-dependent manner, in rat pancreas(20).
The key enzymes of α-amylase, α-glucosidase, involved in the digestion of carbohydrates, have been linked to onset of type 2 diabetes. Inhibition of these enzymes can significantly reduce the post-prandial increase of blood glucose and have been considered by therapists in use for management of blood glucose level in type 2 diabetic and borderline patients(21).

In streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats study, the aqueous extract of leaves of C. papaya administered strongly controlled blood glucose levels(22), through prevention of hepatocyte disruption, as well as accumulation of glycogen and lipids via its hypoglycemic and antioxidant effect(23)


In a new study, conducted by the researchers at the Davis Heart and Lung Research Institute, fermented papaya preparation was tested whether it improves dermal wound healing outcomes in adult diabetic mice by preventing the risk of infections(24).
The result was astonishing, the fermentation not only up regulated the Sp1 DNA binding activity(modulating the cellular response to DNA damage) in Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) but also the protein and mRNA expression of Rac2(regulates a number of cellular functions)(24).

A randomized controlled clinical trial conducted at the Cardiac Centre, ANDI Centre of Excellence for Biomedical and Biomaterials Research and Department of Biosciences University of Mauritius, suggested that oral administration of 6g FPP®/day for a period of 14 weeks could improve the general health status of several organs targeted by oxidative stress duringdiabetes and suggested that the supplement may be used in the management the complications of diabetes such as cardiovascular disease, neurological disease and other conditions worsened by overt inflammation and oxidative stress(25).
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.

Green tea has ling been known for its effect on treatment of diabetes in ancient Chinese literature, probably due to green tea phytochemical polyphenols(26).Dr. Solayman M and the research tea at the Universiti Sains Malaysia said, "Natural products containing high polyphenol levels can control carbohydrate metabolism by various mechanisms, such as protecting and restoring beta-cell integrity, enhancing insulin releasing activity, and increasing cellular glucose uptake"(27).

In a total of 17,413 persons (6727 men and 10,686 women; 49% of the original study population) who were 40 to 65 years of age, daily drinking of green tea reduced risk of diabetes by 33%, especially in women and in overweight men(13).Furthermore, intake of green tea of 150 ml green tea, three times a day for four weeks, has positive effect on insulin resistance and certain lipoproteins in type 2 DM, according to the Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Science(28).

People who are at increased risk of diabetes due to family history, gene mutation, obesity, Diabetic nephropathy, ....should drink at least one serving daily and people with diabetes should drink no more than 4 servings a day, 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,.

                   Pleural disease: Pleural Plaques

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.
Pleural plaques is a medical condition as a result of exposure to asbestos that lead to accumulated plagues within the pleural cavity(a). Many diseases such as pneumonia, breast cancer, and heart failure can affect the pleural space.,therefore, it is often a secondary effect of another disease process

             Diseases associated to Asbestos exposure

In the study on the relationships between fiber characteristics and asbestos-related diseases among compensated workers, from data collected between 1988 and 2007 by the Institut national de santé publique du Québec (INSPQ), indicated that most workers (85%) presented chrysotile fibers in their lungs, and respectively 76%, 64%, and 43% had tremolite, amosite, and crocidolite. Half of the total fibers were short, 30% were thin fibers and 20% corresponded to the World Health Organization definition of fibers (length ≥ 5 µm, diameter ≥ 0.2 and <3 µm). Chrysotile fibers were still observed in the lungs of workers 30 years or more after last exposure(17).
According to British Thoracic Society, Other conditions caused by exposure to asbestos, include
1. Asbestosis
Asbestosis is a form of pulmonary fibrosis that is usually progressive. It results in severe respiratory disability and often premature death. It is linked to the cumulative exposure to asbestos and type of asbestos.
2. Bronchial carcinoma
Bronchial carcinoma is also linked with the cumulative exposure to asbestos but it is not clear whether a diagnosis of asbestosis is required before bronchial carcinoma can be attributed to asbestos exposure. The risk of bronchial carcinoma is increased in a multiplicative fashion by tobacco smoking.
3. Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma is a malignancy of the pleura or peritoneum with a poor prognosis and with limited therapeutic possibilities. It is strongly associated with length of latency period but also with cumulative exposure.
4. Diffuse pleural thickening
Diffuse pleural thickening is a progressive condition that affects larger confluent areas of pleura than pleuralplaques. This condition sometimes causes respiratory disability.
5. Pleural effusion
Pleural effusion may occur in asbestos-exposed individuals. This can cause dyspnoea and usually requires investigation to look for mesothelioma, bronchial carcinoma or other causes(18).
