High blood pressure is the force of your blood pushing against your arteries. When your heart has to work harder than normal to pump blood through your circulation system it causes damage to the heart and arteries, increasing your risk of heart attack and stroke. Therefore managing blood pressure becomes a very important factor not only for high blood pressure sufferers, but everyone to protect against heart disease and stroke.
In the last article we discussed how to control high blood pressure in a general approach. In this article we will try to give some details of how to control high blood pressure with supplements.
Study shows that the following might help to lower your high blood pressure and protect you against heart disease and stroke.
1. Potassium
The adequate potassium intake from fruits and vegetables can lower blood pressure. Unfortunately the body can not store potassium without magnesium. In the presence of adequate amounts of both potassium and magnesium, they increase the excretion of sodium and decrease high blood pressure.
2. 3-n-butyl-phthalide
A dose of the 3-n-butyl- phthalide compound is equivalent to four stalks of celery. In humans they lower blood pressure by an average of 13 percent.
3. Hawthorn extract
Herbalists recognized early that hawthorn held great promise for helping heart related problems such as congestive heart failure, cardiovascular system, circulatory system, and high blood pressure.
4. Vitamin E
People with high blood pressure need to increase their daily intake of vitamin E. Study shows that over a period of a month, a gradual increase of vitamin E dosage can yield a lower blood pressure
5. Coenzyme Q10
CoQ10 significantly reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure. There is also a reduction in HbA1C, a marker for long-term glycemic control.
6. Folic acid
Folate is a vitamin B that is necessary for the formation of red blood cells. It may help to lower high blood pressure in some people, possibly by reducing elevated homocysteine levels.
8.Selenium
Selenium’s primary function in the human body is to work in conjunction with vitamin E in the preservation and elasticity of the tissues. It is also neccessary in the slowing down of the process of aging by increasing endurance and improving the blood and oxygen supply to the heart muscle. The prostoglandins in the human body which protect against high blood pressure cannot be formed without selenium.
9. Chromium
Chromium reduces blood fat, cholesterol levels, and blood pressure. It also stabilizes blood sugar levels and helps correct insulin resistance
10. L-arginine
There are many more supplements that help to expand the arteries, increasing circulation of blood to our body system as well as removing plaques from your arteries therefore lowering your blood pressure. Be sure to talk to your doctor, before taking any supplement.

Health benefits
A. Health benefits according to studies
1. Improve diet qualityThe US Department of Agriculture's MyPyramid guidelines: Dietary intake data from the 1999-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for adults aged > or =19 years was used. Results show that on any given day only 7.9% of adults are consuming dry beans and peas; Mexican Americans or other Hispanics are more likely to be consumers than nonconsumers. Consuming approximately (1/2) c dry beans or peas resulted in higher intakes of fiber, protein, folate, zinc, iron, and magnesium with lower intakes of saturated fat and total fat. These data support the specific recommendation for dry beans and peas as part of the overall vegetable recommendation. Increased consumption of dry beans and peas-economical and nutrient-rich foods-could improve the diet quality of Americans, according to "Consumption of dry beans, peas, andlentils could improve diet quality in the US population" by Mitchell DC, Lawrence FR, Hartman TJ, Curran JM.(a)
2. Colon Cnacer
In the investigation of lentils (Lens culinaris L)'s bioactive compounds and theirs the prevention of cancer found that Our findings indicate that consumption of lentilsmight be protective against colon carcinogenesis and that hydrothermal treatment resulted in an improvement in the chemopreventive potential for the whole lentils, according to "Chemopreventive effect of raw and cooked lentils (Lensculinaris L) and soybeans (Glycine max) against azoxymethane-induced aberrant crypt foci" by Faris MA, Takruri HR, Shomaf MS, Bustanji YK.(b)
3. Antioxidant capacityIn the assessment of cooked seeds of three pulses (black bean, chickpea and lentil) and theirs antioxidant effects found that Black beans andlentils had higher polyphenols content than chickpeas. The indigestible fraction (IF) of black beans exhibited the lowest and chickpeas the highest associated polyphenols content. Condensed tannins were retained to some extent in the IF that exhibited significant antioxidant capacity, according to "In vitro fermentability and antioxidant capacity of the indigestible fraction of cooked black beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), lentils (Lens culinaris L.) and chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.)" by Hernández-Salazar M, Osorio-Diaz P, Loarca-Piña G, Reynoso-Camacho R, Tovar J, Bello-Pérez LA.(c)
4. Gglycaemic responses
In the investigation of pasta and tomato sauce and 44 % of energy from: (1) chickpeas, (2) lentils, (3) navy beans or (4) yellow peas and thier association withglycaemic responses found that consumption of pulses in a high-glycaemic meal contributes to earlier satiation, lower BG following the meal and after a later meal, but these effects are specific to pulse type and cannot be explained by their glycaemic properties alone, according to "The acute effects of a pulse-containing meal on glycaemic responses and measures of satiety and satiation within and at a later meal" by Mollard RC, Zykus A, Luhovyy BL, Nunez MF, Wong CL, Anderson GH.(d)
5. Obesity
In the identification of increased consumption of nonoilseed pulses (dry beans, peas, chickpeas, and lentils and their effect in weigh management found that there is some indication of a beneficial effect of pulses on short-term satiety and weight loss during intentional energy restriction, but more studies are needed in this area, particularly those that are longer term (≥1 y), investigate the optimal amount of pulses to consume for weight control, and include behavioral elements to help overcome barriers to pulse consumption, acccording to "Pulse consumption, satiety, and weight management" by McCrory MA, Hamaker BR, Lovejoy JC, Eichelsdoerfer PE.(e)
6. Etc.
B. Health benefits according to concentration
1. Molybdenum
Molybdenum beside plays an important role in kidneys waste processing (according to the article "Molybdenum" posted in American cancer Society), it also acts as a cofactor in carbohydrate metabolism and detoxification (according to the article of "Molybdenum Aids Fat and Carbohydrate Metabolism", posted in Nutra Legacy)
2. Folate
Folate beside is important for the production of red blood cells, and for the proper development of the brain, it also helps to enhance the replication and maintain DNA and RNA, thus reducing the risk of birth defects, in a study of "Go folic!" by Bland J., posted in PubMed, researchers state that in order to prevent neural tube defects (NTDs), and proactively prevent new cases of spina bifida and hydrocephalus, it is essential that women take folic acid well before becoming pregnant. Through the use of social networks, and the voice of healthcare professionals, it is hoped that more women than ever before will receive the Go Folic! message and start taking the 400mcg/day required to ensure the development of a healthy brain and spine.
3. Dietary fiber
Daily intake of right amount of fibers can prevent and treat Diabetes. As Increased consumption of vegetables, whole grains, and soluble and insoluble fiber is associated with improved glucose metabolism in both diabetic and nondiabetic individuals. Improvements in insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis were more evident in participants following a plant-based diet compared with other commonly used diets, according to the study of "Efficacy of high-fiber diets in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus" by Wolfram T, Ismail-Beigi F.(1)
4. Tryptophan
Tryptophan in dried bean is not only essential for normal growth and balanced out nitrogen in the body, it is also an antioxidant that helps to enhances the immune system in fighting against the forming of free radical and foreign invasion, thus reducing the risk of inflammation and infection. By enhancing the immune system, trytophan also inhiblts the cancer cells growth, in a study of "Uveal melanoma expression of indoleamine 2,3-deoxygenase: establishment of an immune privileged environment by tryptophan depletion." by Chen PW, Mellon JK, Mayhew E, Wang S, He YG, Hogan N, Niederkorn JY., posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that Addition of the IDO inhibitor 1-methyl dl-tryptophan significantly diminished kynurenine levels in IFN-gamma treated uveal melanoma cell cultures...... IFN-gamma inducible IDO upregulation by primary and metastatic uveal melanoma may generate a local immune privileged microenvironment to promote escape from T cell-mediated immune surveillance.
5. Manganese
Manganese in dried peas not only is a processor for the metabolizing of glucose and carbohydrates, it also plays an important role as part of the natural antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), that helps to fight the damage caused by free radicals, according to the study of "Regulation of Manganese Antioxidants by Nutrient Sensing Pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae" by Reddi AR, Culotta VC., posted in PubMed, researchers found that loss of either of these upstream kinase sensors dramatically inhibited the potency of Mn as an antioxidant. Downstream of Rim15p are transcription factors Gis1p and the redundant Msn2/Msn4p pair that typically respond to nutrient and stress signals. Both transcription factors were found to modulate the potency of the Mn-antioxidant but in opposing fashions: loss of Gis1p was seen to enhance Mn-antioxidant activity whereas loss of Msn2/4p greatly suppressed it. Our observed roles for nutrient and stress response kinases and transcription factors in regulating the Mn-antioxidant underscore its physiological importance in aerobic fitness.

C. Other health benefits
1. Atherosclerosis
Since lentils contains high amount of fiber that can help in binding the bad cholesterol and reduce the liver in cholesterol production, thus improving the heart in blood circulation and reducing the risk of atherosclerosis, By binding to the bile acids and expelling them as a waste product, fiber helps to remove bad cholesterol, according to the study of "Hypolipidemic effect of fresh Triticum aestivum (wheat) grass juice in hypercholesterolemic rats" by Kothari S, Jain AK, Mehta SC, Tonpay SD., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21485304).
2. Blood sugar
Fiber in lentil not only reduces the risk of constipation by helping the large intestine in waste removal (according to the study of "A controlled, randomized, double-blind trial to evaluate the effect of a supplement of cocoa husk that is rich in dietary fiber on colonic transit in constipated pediatric patients" by Castillejo G, Bulló M, Anguera A, Escribano J, Salas-Salvadó J.). it also improves the insulin production of pancreas by releasing the sugar into blood stream slowly. Prolong production of insulin can cause stress to the pancreas, leading to the risk of type II diabetes., according to the study of "Influence of dietary fibre intake on diabetes and diabetic retinopathy: Sankara Nethralaya Diabetic Retinopathy Epidemiology and Molecular Genetic Study (SN-DREAM, report 26)" by Ganesan S, Raman R, Kulothungan V, Sharma T., posted in PubMed, researchers found that The presence of diabetic retinopathy, sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy and microalbuminuria were also associated with lower dietary fibre intake.
3. Folate
Beside it is essential vitamin in synthesis of DNA (According to the study of "Folate stimulation of wound DNA synthesis" by Zhang XJ, Chinkes DL, Herndon DN., Posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18028951)), amino acid metabolism (accprding to the study of "Assessment of vitamin B-12, folate, and vitamin B-6 status and relation to sulfur amino acid metabolism in neonates" Minet JC, Bissé E, Aebischer CP, Beil A, Wieland H, Lütschg J.Posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10966894), etc. it also plays an important in regulating cells division and replication, thus reducing the risk of improper growth of cells, leading to tumors and cancers, according to the study of "Folate and cancer: how DNA damage, repair and methylation impact on colon carcinogenesis" by Duthie SJ., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20544289), reseachers concluded that Folate maintains genomic stability by regulating DNA biosynthesis, repair and methylation. Folate deficiency induces and accelerates carcinogenesis by perturbing each of these processes.
4. Weigh loss
High amount of fiber in lentil helps to make the digestive system feeling fullness, thus reducing the risk of craving, leading to weight loss for some people, according to the study of Free-living, overweight and obese adults (N=204, body mass index 25 to 45) with baseline LDL cholesterol levels 130 to 200 mg/dL (3.4 to 5.2 mmol/L) were randomized; 144 were included in the main analysis of participants who completed the trial without significant protocol violations, conduceted by Provident Clinical Research, Glen Ellyn, posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20102847).
5. Copper
Copper is best known for its function in regulating the proper growth, utilization of iron, it is also a strong antioxidant, aiding the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase, and preventing oxidation in the cell membrane, according to the article of antioxidant cancer and diseases, posted in Medical Advisor Journals, in other antioxidants, 1. Copper
6. Omega 3 fatty acid
The omega 3 fatty not only helps to maintain the ratio of Omega 6 fatty acid that reduces the risk of over production of prostaglandin hormones (according to the study of "Effect of Clupeonella grimmi (anchovy/kilka) fish oil on dysmenorrhoea" by Moghadamnia AA, Mirhosseini N, Abadi MH, Omranirad A, Omidvar S., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20795425)), it also helps to prevent of oxidation bad cholesterol (LDL), thus reducing the risk of free radical cause of cardiovascular disease, according to the study of "Fish oil for the treatment of cardiovascular disease" by Weitz D, Weintraub H, Fisher E,Schwartzbard AZ., posted in PubMed, (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20699674).

Health benefits
A. Health benefits according to studies
1. Improve diet qualityThe US Department of Agriculture's MyPyramid guidelines: Dietary intake data from the 1999-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for adults aged > or =19 years was used. Results show that on any given day only 7.9% of adults are consuming dry beans and peas; Mexican Americans or other Hispanics are more likely to be consumers than nonconsumers. Consuming approximately (1/2) c dry beans or peas resulted in higher intakes of fiber, protein, folate, zinc, iron, and magnesium with lower intakes of saturated fat and total fat. These data support the specific recommendation for dry beans and peas as part of the overall vegetable recommendation. Increased consumption of dry beans and peas-economical and nutrient-rich foods-could improve the diet quality of Americans, according to "Consumption of dry beans, peas, andlentils could improve diet quality in the US population" by Mitchell DC, Lawrence FR, Hartman TJ, Curran JM.(a)
2. Colon Cnacer
In the investigation of lentils (Lens culinaris L)'s bioactive compounds and theirs the prevention of cancer found that Our findings indicate that consumption of lentilsmight be protective against colon carcinogenesis and that hydrothermal treatment resulted in an improvement in the chemopreventive potential for the whole lentils, according to "Chemopreventive effect of raw and cooked lentils (Lensculinaris L) and soybeans (Glycine max) against azoxymethane-induced aberrant crypt foci" by Faris MA, Takruri HR, Shomaf MS, Bustanji YK.(b)
3. Antioxidant capacityIn the assessment of cooked seeds of three pulses (black bean, chickpea and lentil) and theirs antioxidant effects found that Black beans andlentils had higher polyphenols content than chickpeas. The indigestible fraction (IF) of black beans exhibited the lowest and chickpeas the highest associated polyphenols content. Condensed tannins were retained to some extent in the IF that exhibited significant antioxidant capacity, according to "In vitro fermentability and antioxidant capacity of the indigestible fraction of cooked black beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), lentils (Lens culinaris L.) and chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.)" by Hernández-Salazar M, Osorio-Diaz P, Loarca-Piña G, Reynoso-Camacho R, Tovar J, Bello-Pérez LA.(c)
4. Gglycaemic responses
In the investigation of pasta and tomato sauce and 44 % of energy from: (1) chickpeas, (2) lentils, (3) navy beans or (4) yellow peas and thier association withglycaemic responses found that consumption of pulses in a high-glycaemic meal contributes to earlier satiation, lower BG following the meal and after a later meal, but these effects are specific to pulse type and cannot be explained by their glycaemic properties alone, according to "The acute effects of a pulse-containing meal on glycaemic responses and measures of satiety and satiation within and at a later meal" by Mollard RC, Zykus A, Luhovyy BL, Nunez MF, Wong CL, Anderson GH.(d)
5. Obesity
In the identification of increased consumption of nonoilseed pulses (dry beans, peas, chickpeas, and lentils and their effect in weigh management found that there is some indication of a beneficial effect of pulses on short-term satiety and weight loss during intentional energy restriction, but more studies are needed in this area, particularly those that are longer term (≥1 y), investigate the optimal amount of pulses to consume for weight control, and include behavioral elements to help overcome barriers to pulse consumption, acccording to "Pulse consumption, satiety, and weight management" by McCrory MA, Hamaker BR, Lovejoy JC, Eichelsdoerfer PE.(e)
6. Etc.
B. Health benefits according to concentration
1. Molybdenum
Molybdenum beside plays an important role in kidneys waste processing (according to the article "Molybdenum" posted in American cancer Society), it also acts as a cofactor in carbohydrate metabolism and detoxification (according to the article of "Molybdenum Aids Fat and Carbohydrate Metabolism", posted in Nutra Legacy)
2. Folate
Folate beside is important for the production of red blood cells, and for the proper development of the brain, it also helps to enhance the replication and maintain DNA and RNA, thus reducing the risk of birth defects, in a study of "Go folic!" by Bland J., posted in PubMed, researchers state that in order to prevent neural tube defects (NTDs), and proactively prevent new cases of spina bifida and hydrocephalus, it is essential that women take folic acid well before becoming pregnant. Through the use of social networks, and the voice of healthcare professionals, it is hoped that more women than ever before will receive the Go Folic! message and start taking the 400mcg/day required to ensure the development of a healthy brain and spine.
3. Dietary fiber
Daily intake of right amount of fibers can prevent and treat Diabetes. As Increased consumption of vegetables, whole grains, and soluble and insoluble fiber is associated with improved glucose metabolism in both diabetic and nondiabetic individuals. Improvements in insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis were more evident in participants following a plant-based diet compared with other commonly used diets, according to the study of "Efficacy of high-fiber diets in the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus" by Wolfram T, Ismail-Beigi F.(1)
4. Tryptophan
Tryptophan in dried bean is not only essential for normal growth and balanced out nitrogen in the body, it is also an antioxidant that helps to enhances the immune system in fighting against the forming of free radical and foreign invasion, thus reducing the risk of inflammation and infection. By enhancing the immune system, trytophan also inhiblts the cancer cells growth, in a study of "Uveal melanoma expression of indoleamine 2,3-deoxygenase: establishment of an immune privileged environment by tryptophan depletion." by Chen PW, Mellon JK, Mayhew E, Wang S, He YG, Hogan N, Niederkorn JY., posted in PubMed, researchers concluded that Addition of the IDO inhibitor 1-methyl dl-tryptophan significantly diminished kynurenine levels in IFN-gamma treated uveal melanoma cell cultures...... IFN-gamma inducible IDO upregulation by primary and metastatic uveal melanoma may generate a local immune privileged microenvironment to promote escape from T cell-mediated immune surveillance.
5. Manganese
Manganese in dried peas not only is a processor for the metabolizing of glucose and carbohydrates, it also plays an important role as part of the natural antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), that helps to fight the damage caused by free radicals, according to the study of "Regulation of Manganese Antioxidants by Nutrient Sensing Pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisiae" by Reddi AR, Culotta VC., posted in PubMed, researchers found that loss of either of these upstream kinase sensors dramatically inhibited the potency of Mn as an antioxidant. Downstream of Rim15p are transcription factors Gis1p and the redundant Msn2/Msn4p pair that typically respond to nutrient and stress signals. Both transcription factors were found to modulate the potency of the Mn-antioxidant but in opposing fashions: loss of Gis1p was seen to enhance Mn-antioxidant activity whereas loss of Msn2/4p greatly suppressed it. Our observed roles for nutrient and stress response kinases and transcription factors in regulating the Mn-antioxidant underscore its physiological importance in aerobic fitness.

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).

Yield: 2 serving (about 8 ounce each)
1 gram of formula RRF(you cam buy them in any Chinese herbal store)
1 cup grape
1/2 cup of carrot
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 the natural ingredients for reduced symptoms and treatment of hydronephrosis caused by Kidney Stones is considered as a dream of many scientist to replace the long usage adverse effect of conventional medicine.
Unfortunately, many compounds found effective in initial studying failed to confirm the potentials in large sample size and multi center.
Hydronephrosis is a health condition of kidney swelling caused by urine retention. According to the China Medical University, in patients with ureteral stones and colic, a majority (nearly 71 %) will demonstrate only mild hydronephrosis(1).
Kidney stone is a tiny mineral and acid salts form inside your kidneys. recent study back by some renowned institution suggested that green tea(2) may have a potential in reduced risk and treatment of forming of kidney stone.
Vitamin E, a fat soluble vitamin found abundantly in sweet potato may also induced protective effect against kidney stone forming through it antioxidant in involvement of free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation-induced membrane damage in the pathogenesis of calcium oxalate crystal deposition and retention(7).

The finding the natural ingredients for reduced symptoms and treatment of hydronephrosis caused by Kidney Stones is considered as a dream of many scientist to replace the long usage adverse effect of conventional medicine.
Unfortunately, many compounds found effective in initial studying failed to confirm the potentials in large sample size and multi center.
Hydronephrosis is a health condition of kidney swelling caused by urine retention. According to the China Medical University, in patients with ureteral stones and colic, a majority (nearly 71 %) will demonstrate only mild hydronephrosis(1).
Kidney stone is a tiny mineral and acid salts form inside your kidneys. recent study back by some renowned institution suggested that green tea(2) may have a potential in reduced risk and treatment of forming of kidney stone.
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 Seoul National University Hospital, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a main constituent of green tea polyphenols processed an inhibitory effect on urinary stone formation, through its anti-oxalate effect(2).
Treatment of Green tea in a total of 120 Wistar rats study also exhibited decreased urinary oxalate excretion and calcium oxalate deposit formation due to antioxidative effects(3).
Dr. Kanlaya R and colleagues in the study led by the Mahidol University said, " EGCG in reducing COM crystal deposition in previous animal models of kidney stone disease. Thus, EGCG may be useful for the prevention of new or recurrent stone formation"(4).
Gallotannin, class of molecules belongings to the hydrolysable tannins found abundantly in grape and blueberry may also exert protective effect against forming of kidney stone(5). According to the Kyung Hee University, gallotannin suppressed calcium oxalate crystal binding and oxalate-induced oxidative stress in renal epithelial cells by upregulating antioxidant expression(5).
Furthermore, the 1,2,3,4,6-Penta-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucose derivative of gallotannin, attenuated r renal crystallization and oxidative renal cell injury for treatment of nephrolithiasis(6).Vitamin E, a fat soluble vitamin found abundantly in sweet potato may also induced protective effect against kidney stone forming through it antioxidant in involvement of free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation-induced membrane damage in the pathogenesis of calcium oxalate crystal deposition and retention(7).
Dr. Thamilselvan S and Dr. Menon M. said, " excess vitamin E completely prevented calcium oxalate deposition, by preventing peroxidative injury and restoring renal tissue antioxidants and glutathione redox balance"(8).
According to the National Taiwan University Hospital, Vitamin E attenuates crystal formation in rat kidneys through educing calcium oxalate accumulation via attenuation of tubular cell death and enhancement of the defensive roles of osteopontinin (OPN), and Tamm-Horsfall protein as crystallization inhibitors(9).
The combination of Green tea, Grape and Sweet Potato smoothie may hold a key in further studies in production of an effective natural ingredients for prevention and treatment of hydronephrosis caused by Kidney Stones without inducing adverse effects.
People who are at increased risk of hydronephrosis caused by Kidney Stones due to drinking habit, family history .....should drink at least one cup daily and people with hydronephrosis caused by Kidney Stones should drink the juices at least 3 times a day, depending to digestive toleration.
Change of life style and diet pattern are also recommended.

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.
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.
All of us benefit and improve our health by eating healthy foods and exercising. Studies support the benefits of eating fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low fat dairy foods, lean meats and healthy fat. If you are diabetics, you need to manage your meal plan by keeping your blood sugar well in target range, while at the same time allowing you to enjoy your favorite foods.
Generally, all foods fall into one of the following groups:
*Carbohydrates: liver and muscle convert carbohydrates to energy.
* Proteins: made up of amino acid. It is vital in the growth and repair of tissues.
* Fat or fatty acids: are important for maintaining the membranes of all cells and regulates many body processes which include inflammation and blood clotting.
1. Carbohydrates:
Carbohydrates are the best source for body energy. In oder to determine the best meal plan for diabetics, monitoring the glucose in the bloodstream after each meal becomes very important. If the blood sugar reading is high, you must decrease a portion of the carbohydrates in your meal. Since adding fiber can slow down the release of glucose to the bloodstream, changing carbohydrate intake with more fiber such as whole grain will help. On the other hand, if the blood sugar is too low you must add more carbohydrates. After many tests, you will find the best balanced diet plan that puts your blood sugar well in the healthy range.
2. Protein:Poultry, meat, and dairy are protein containing saturated fats that are the major contributors of cholesterol building up in your arteries. Therefore, it is for a diabetic's benefit to reach out to other better protein sources such as fish, egg white, soy product and white chicken meat. Limit your daily protein between 15-20% of your total energy intake is the best for diabetics. Protein does not directly effect blood sugar levels after a meal, but does stimulate secretion of significant amounts of insulin and half of the protein eventually convert to glucose.
3.Fat:Monounsaturated fats such as olive oil, canola oil and polyunsaturated fats such as oils made from nuts, seeds and sunflowers are the best choice for a diabetic's diet because it not only gives the same nutrition profile as in saturated fat, but also helps to lower triglyceride levels and increase your HDL cholesterol.
By understanding and choosing a correct percentage of carbohydrates, proteins and fats for your meal planning, you might already have a healthy, nutritional meal plan that helps to keep your sugar level in a normal range.

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.
