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.

The smoothie for Prevention and treatment of Polyuria

Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 cup low fat milk
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
Recent studies by some renowned institutions suggested that green tea(1) and low fat milk may be the next generation of ingredient extracted from natural sources for reduced risk and treatment of Focal proliferative nephritis.

Focal proliferative nephritis is a type of glomerulonephritis seen in 20% to 35% of causes of lupus nephritis.

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. Its phytochemical (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), exhibited prophylactic effects in enhancing the Nrf2 in regulation of antioefxidant signaling pathway and decreasing renal NLRP3 in activation of pro inflammatory pathways(1).

Cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) found abundantly in low fat milk may also benefit patients of g glomerulonephritis induced by systemic lupus(SLE). According to the Universidade Federal de São Paulo-Escola Paulista de Medicina, vitamin D analogs modulated the immune system in prevention of autoimmune diseases in induced kidney inflammation(2).
It is said that vitamin D also involved in the attenuated physiopathology of bone metabolism disturbance in patients with lupus nephritis.

The effectiveness of Green Tea and Low Fat Milk may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for prevention and treatment of Focal proliferative nephritis with little or no adverse effects.

People who are at high risk of Focal proliferative nephritis due to systemic lupus(SLE) and people with Focal proliferative nephritis should drink no more than 4 servings daily, depending to digestive toleration.

Life style and diet pattern change are necessary.

If you are diabetic, the chance that you are overweight and this increase the
chance of high cholesterol and high blood pressure. So, to control the
glucose in your blood stream, you might want to try high protein diet
together with fighting cholesterol and high blood pressure natural remedies.

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.

Traditionally, diabetes is viewed as a failure of the pancreas to release
enough insulin for sugar metabolism. People with diabetes has grown
increasingly worse over last 10 years. The escalation in diabetes corresponds
to rise in heart disease, because of over weight, poor diet and lack of
exercise.
Before discussing the subject of what causes type II diabetes, you might want to know how does the pancreas help to maintain sugar in the blood stream.

The pancreas is located deep in the abdomen behind the stomach. It contains thin tubes joining to form a single opening into the intestine that is located just beyond the stomach.
The pancreas produces juices, enzymes and insulin.
1.The enzymes digest fat, protein, and
carbohydrates.

2. Pancreatic juices combined with juices from the intestines help to do the job of breaking down protein, carbohydrates and fat therefore it plays an important role in maintaining good health.

3.The pancreas also produces insulin, which is important in regulating the amount of sugar or glucose in the blood.

There are 3 different kinds of type II diabetes

1. If some of the cells in the pancreas die off the pancreas can't produce enough insulin to regulate sugar in the blood stream, then we have type II diabetes that are caused by deficiency of insulin.
Today experts still don't know the causes of how pancreas cells die off, but they suspect that excessive alcohol drinking may be the factor. According to surveys, 70% of patients with type II insulin deficiency diabetes were heavy alcohol users.

2.If the pancreas produces enough insulin, but the receptor sites are clogged up by fat and cholesterol causing insulin not being pick up at the cell from receptor sites, we have type II insulin sufficient diabetes.
Most cases of type II insulin sufficient diabetes are caused by uncontrolled diet that are high in saturated fat, smoking and excessive alcohol drinking.

3. If the pancreas also produces enough insulin, but allergic responses to certain foods cause resistance of cells to allow insulin to enter blood stream. In other words, if the cells of the muscle and liver resist to take up glucose from the blood causing high concentration of glucose in the blood stream, we have a case of type II insulin resistance diabetes. The foods creating this problem vary from person to person. Most people with type II insulin resistance diabetes seem to be precipitated by overweight, smoking and excessive alcohol drinking. Type II insulin resistant diabetics should have allergy shots in order to find the exact foods causing insulin resistance reactions.

In the evaluation of Anacardic acid, cardanol and cardol, the main constituents of natural cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), were obtained by solvent extraction and assayed for antioxidant, larvicidal and antiacetylcholinesterase activity, showed that cardanol as the most active, followed by cardol and anacardic acid. The three CNSL components demonstrated good larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti (LC(50)=12.40 for anacardic acid, 10.22 for cardol and 14.45 for cardanol) and exhibited inhibition zones for acetylcholinesterase enzymes in the TLC test similar to carbachol, which was used as standard, according to "Antioxidant, larvicidal and antiacetylcholinesterase activities of cashew nut shell liquid constituents" by Oliveira MS, Morais SM, Magalhães DV, Batista WP, Vieira IG, Craveiro AA, de Manezes JE, Carvalho AF, de Lima GP.(7)

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



                                                      Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid Arthritis is defined a chronic disorder as a result of inflammation, affecting mostly the flexible (synovial) joints and tissues and organs in the body. The disease affects more women than men and generally occurs after the ages of 40, causing diminished quality of life of many elders(1). According to CDC, Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) affects over 52 millions of adults in the US alone, including 294,000 children under age 18 with some form of arthritis or rheumatic conditions(2). Rheumatoid Arthritis can induced bone loss through elevating bone resorption without increasing bone formation(4). A cross-sectional population-based study of 1042 patients with rheumatoid arthritis showed that RA patients had an increased risk of death from various causes(4a).



                            The Treatment

B. Treatment in herbal and traditional Chinese medicine
B.9. The herbal formulas in herbal and traditional Chinese medicine
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common worldwide public health problem especially in China, many RA formula has been used in the clinic and some of these TCM formulas have been existed over thousands of years in ancient China(388) with potential mechanisms such as inhibited osteoclast proliferation, suppressed fibroblast, decreased the expression of inflammatory cytokines, blocking signal pathways, etc.).
2. Keishibukuryogan
Keishibukuryogan, is a formul for the improvement of blood circulation may be a potential herbal formula used a treatment for reduced symptoms of RA, through its antioxidant and anti inflammatory effects on vascular function(389). As one of the most frequently used Kampo medicines in Japan, the herbal formula also has been used as biomarker protein (haptoglobin alpha 1 chain) for discriminating responders from non-responders in applying KBG for treatment of RA's patient(390).
Furthermore, application of Keishibukuryogan has shown to decreased tender joint count, swollen joint count and DAS(28) decreased significantly with CRP and inflammatory cytokines remained unchanged(391) in RA 's patient.

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.
