The sweet and cool herb has been use in TCM to stops hemorrhoids bleeding, Menopausal bleeding, treat yeast infections with red or white discharge, etc., as it cools Blood, stops bleeding, clear wind heat, liver fire, etc., by enhancing the function of liver channels.

Ingredients
1. β-sitosterol
2. Cholesterylpalmitatie
3. 3,4-dihydroxylbenzaldehyde
4. p-hydroxylbenzoic acid
5. n-butyl-β-D-frucose glycoside
6. Celosiaol
7. Niacin
8. Potassium nitrate
9. Etc.

Health Benefits
1. Anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities
In the investigation of three new triterpenoid saponins, named celosin E (1), celosin F (2) and celosin G (3), together with a known compound cristatain (4), were isolated from the seeds of Celosia argentea L. (Amaranthaceae), to test for their antitumor and anti-inflammatory activities in vitro, according to “Triterpenoid saponins from the seeds of Celosia argentea and their anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities” by Wu Q, Wang Y, Guo M.(1).

2. Anti-diabetic activity
In the investigation of evaluate the effect of an alcoholic extract of Celosia argentea seeds (ACAS) on blood glucose and body weight in alloxan-induced diabetic rats, found that ACAS reduce the increase of blood glucose in alloxan-induced diabetic rats (27.8% at 250 mg/kg and 38.8% at 500 mg/kg body weight). Chronic administration of ACAS significantly (p<0.01) reduced the blood glucose in alloxan-induced diabetic rats for two weeks. Also the extract prevented a decrease in body weight in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. These results suggest that the ACAS possesses anti-diabetic activity in alloxan-induced diabetic rats, according to “Anti-diabetic activity of alcoholic extract of Celosia argentea Linn. seeds in rats” Vetrichelvan T, Jegadeesan M, Devi BA.(2).

Children's Health: Autism - Avoid Casein

Autism is one of the most common forms of brain development disorder and one in 166 child is diagnosed with some forms of autism. Children who are diagnosed with autism tend to have weak immune system and auto immune problems. Autism is defined as medical condition in which a child has some of the following impairments
a) Speech
b) Social and communication skills
c) Limited interest
d) Repetitive behaviour

Avoid Casein

Since most children with autism have poor digestive system and weakened immune system, intake of artificial ingredients will cause toxin accumulated in the body, leading to abnormality of liver function in toxins elimination, resulting in increasing the severity of the symptoms.

Casein
Casein is a protein found in milk and foods containing milk, such as cheese, butter, yogurt, etc. Studies found besides promoting cancer, it also increases the risk of bad cholesterol building up in the arteries, leading to heart diseases and stroke. Casein after intake can also be broken down to casomorphins, an chemical agent which is known to interfere with the function of neurotransmitter in transmitting information and decrease the immune response to foreign bacteria and virus invasion.

General Health: Duodenitis - The Symptoms

Duodenitis

Duodenitis is defined as a condition of inflammation in the lining of the duodenum,the first section of the small intestine.

The Symptoms

1. Abdominal pain
In a report of Thirty nine children with recurrent abdominal pain aged between 5.5 and 12 years, underwent endoscopic duodenal biopsy. Duodenal inflammation was graded by the duodenitis scale of Whitehead et al (grade 0, 1, 2, and 3). In 13 out of 39 patients (33%) definite signs of inflammation were found (grade 2 and 3). Intestinal permeability to 51Cr-EDTA in patients with duodenitis (grade 1, 2, and 3) was significantly higher (4.42 (1.73)%) than in patients with normal (grade 0) duodenal biopsy appearances (3.3 (0.9)%)(1).

2. Loss of appetite, epigastric pain and weight loss
Parasitic infection cause of Duodenitis can lead to loss of appetite and weight loss, according to the study of An extremely uncommon case of parasitic infectionpresenting as eosinophilic ascites in a young patient, by thye research team at the GATA Haydarpasa Training Hospital(2).

3. Other symptoms
In the study of over a 15 month period, 124 referred patients were evaluated in a prospective cohort analysis with a standardised investigation including duodenal biopsies and aspirate, blood tests and faecal parasite and calprotectin tests. Recovered subjects were recruited for symptom analysis, researchers at the Haukeland University Hospital, found that There were significant associations between persistent Giardia positivity, microscopic duodenal inflammation and a positive calprotectin test. In patients with persisting symptoms after metronidazole treated Giardia infection we commonly found chronic Giardia infection and microscopic duodenal inflammation, especially in illness duration less than 7 months. Both these findings subsided over time. Increasingly, investigations could not determine a definite cause for the persistent symptoms. The very long-termpost-giardiasis diarrhoea, bloating, nausea and abdominal pain documented here need further study(3).

Fibroids, also known as Fibromyoma uteri or leiomyoma uteri, are benign tumors originated from the muscle tissue that adhere to either the inner or outer of the uterine wall. According to the statistic from National Uterine Fibroid Foundations approximately 80% of all women have uterine fibroids with the majority usually have no symptoms. Every 10 minutes, 12 hysterectomies are performed in the United States alone.

The Preventive Diet

1. Whole grains
Whole gains contains high amounts of fiber which help to detoxify the environment toxins accumulated in the body including xanoestrogen and enhance the liver function in reducing the risk of over production of prostaglandin hormone that can lead to uterine bleeding.

2. Vegetables and fruits
Vegetables and fruits contain high amount of antioxidants of which can increase immune system fighting against the irregular cells growth and damage from free radicals attack.

3. Organic whole food Soy products
Soy contains high amount of antioxidants and phytoestrogen that can promote the immune system as well as balance the levbels of estrogen and progesterone hormones.

4. Legumes and beans
Legumes and beans contain are rich in phytoestrogens and act as fibroid fighters.

5. Water
Drinking 8 cups of water a day increases the blood flow of the uterus, thus reducing the risk of fibroid growth.

Phytochemicals for Treatment of Dementia

Phytochemials are defined as a group of chemical compound found naturally in plants, including fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, etc. Many studies have proven that they can because of certain phytochemicals, but for what ever reason, there are either no clinical trials follow through or the studies can not make to stage of clinical trials. Do not expect the pharmateutical or foods industrial companies to pay for the researches, as the discovery of the phytochemicals to cure cancers can only dampen the profits of both industries as phytochemicals can not be patented.

Cancer is a class of diseases in which a group of cells growing and multiplying disordered and uncontrollable way in our body, have become progressively worse and damaged other healthy tissues, sometimes spreads to other organs in the body via lymph or blood and results may be in death.
Food intake can help to prevent and treat cancers.

Treatment of Dementia

Dementia About 5-8% of all people over the age of 65 have some form of dementia, and this number doubles every five years above that age. Dementia is the loss of mental ability that is severe enough to interfere with people's every life and Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia in aging people.

Types of food to prevent and treat dementia
1. Apple and Capers
Quercetin is a member of flavonoids, found abundantly in Apple, Capers, etc. It is also one of antioxidants with property of protecting our body in fighting against forming of free radicals cause of mutation of cells`DNA. In the review focused on the new developments in oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration, showed that quercetin, an antioxidant compound in hypoxia and ischemia induced neuroprotection in relation to suppression of oxidative stress, improvement in behavioral function, reduction in infarct volume, brain swelling, and cellular injury in both in vivo and in vitro models are discussed. Our new findings clearly suggest that antioxidant compounds have potential role in therapeutic strategies to treat neurodegenerative diseases in clinical settings(1).

2. Green tea
Green tea contains more amount of antioxidants than any drinks or food with the same volume, and is the leaves of Camellia sinensis, undergone minimal oxidation during processing, originated from China. Green tea has been a precious drink in traditional Chinese culture and used exceptional in socialization for more than 4000 thousand years. Because of their health benefits, they have been cultivated for commercial purposes all over the world. Some researchers suggested that the catechin polyphenols constituents of green tea, which were for long time regarded merely as dietary antioxidants, have caught our and other scientist's attention because of their diverse pharmacological activities, which have been allied to a possible beneficial action on brain health. This review will elaborate on the impact of nutritional supplementation on brain function in general, and provide a compilation of the most updated literature on epidemiology, clinical and animal studies with green tea polyphenols in ageassociated cognitive decline and in fighting neurodegenerative diseases(2).

3. Olives
The Mediterranean diet appears to be associated with a reduced risk of several chronic diseases including cancer, cardiovascular and Alzheimer's disease. In the study of A Review: Factors influencing phenolic compounds in table olives (Olea europaea), researchers found that here are numerous factors that can affect the phenolics in table olives including: the cultivar, degree of ripening and importantly the methods used for curing and processing table olives. The predominant phenolic compound found in fresh olive is the bitter secoiridoid, oleuropein. Table olive processing decreases levels of oleuropein with concomitant increases in the hydrolysis products hydroxytyrosol and tyrosol. Many of the health benefits reported for olives are thought to be associated with the levels of hydroxytyrosol(3).

4. Broccoli, Carrot, tomato
Brocoli contains measurable amount of vitamin A, E and coenzyme Q10 and tomato and carrot contain high amounts of vitamin lycopene and β-carotene, respectivly. In the study to evaluate the serum levels of antioxidants in persons with mild dementia to test whether it is associated with lower levels of antioxidantsin a cross-sectional study in the population of the "Activity and Function in the Ederly in Ulm" (ActiFE) study. Main exposure measures were vitamin C, vitamin E, β-carotene, lycopene, and coenzyme Q10 as analyzed by HPLC, indicated that that blood vitamin C and β-carotene concentrations were significantly lower in demented than in control persons even after adjusting for school education, intake of dietary supplements, smoking habits, body mass index, and alcohol consumption (3rd versus 1st tertile: OR: 0.29, 95% CI, 0.09-0.96 and 0.13, 95% CI, 0.03-0.55, respectively). No associations were found for vitamin E, lycopene, and coenzyme Q10. Our findings suggest an association of vitamin C and β-carotene with dementia(4).

Children Health: Precocious Puberty - Central precocious puberty

Precocious Puberty refers to the sexual and physical characteristics matureoccurring at an unusually early age such as before age 7 or 8 in girls and age 9 for boys.

Understand the process of puberty

The process of puberty begins with production of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (Gn-RH) from the brain, which in turn stimulates the pituitary gland to produce the luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). These two hormones again stimulates the ovaries in girls and testicles in boys to produce estrogen and testosterone responsible for the growth and development of girl and male sexual characteristics respectfully.

Central precocious puberty

Central precocious puberty can be caused by abnormal function of hypothalamus in secretion of high-amplitude pulses of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) by the hypothalamus, leading to high amount of female sexual characteristic, causing precocious puberty.
The high-amipliyude pulse of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) by the hypothalamus can be result of
1. Damage to the inhibitory system of the brain as a result of infection, trauma, or irradiation.

2. McCune-Albright syndrome that effects the hormonal production.

3. Injure to the central nervous system
Injure to the central nervous system can result in disruption of production of certain hormones which can contribute to onset of early poverty.

4. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to inherited disorders causing the abnormal hormone production by the adrenal glands.

5. Congenital hypothyroidism
In the study of Precocious puberty with congenital hypothyroidism by Abdelrahman M Radaideh, Mohamad Nusier, Zeyad El-Akawi & Duried Jaradat, resaerchers conclude that where vaginal bleeding occurs in young girls,hypothyroidism should be considered especially when vaginal bleeding is accompanied with additional clinical presentations such as short stature, delayed boneage and multicystic ovaries. Thyroxin replacement therapy should lead to complete resolution of suchdisorder and promote normal physical and mental development of young girls.

6. Hypothalamic hamartoma
in an article of Precocious Puberty and Hypothalamic Hamartoma by Hillel I. Hochman, David M. Judge, Seymour Reichlin, indicated that The clinical, endocrinologic, and pathologic features of published cases of precocious puberty and hypothalamic hamartoma are reviewed. Advanced or rapidly progressive true precocious puberty in the very young with elevated concentrations of blood gonadotropins and gonadal steroids and positive pneumoencephalography appear to be characteristic.

Overcome Infertility

Infertility is defined as inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse. It effects over 5 millions couple alone in the U. S. and many times more in the world. Because of unawareness of treatments, only 10% seeks help from professional specialist.

Follicle-stimulating hormone ( FSH) Effects in Female Infertility

1. Definition
Follicle-stimulating hormone ( FSH) is made from purified urine of postmenopause women. It is uses to treat ovulation disorder and stimulate the follicle and egg production.

2. How follicle-stimulating hormone ( FSH) effects infertile women
The medication if only given for women with ovulation problem such as without responding to the ovulatory dysfunction medicine but with high levels of LH as we mentioned in the previous article
a) Follicle enhancer
Since follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secreted by the anterior pituitary gland as resulting of secreting of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, low levels of GrNH in the women body may causes little secreting of FSH leading to low levels o f FSH and interfere with the ovulation as well as development of follicles that are vital for production of eggs from the ovaries.

b) Egg production
Beside helping the production of follicles, it also helps to improve the production of mature and assists mature egg extruding to the Fallopian tube that are vital for the women to conceive.
Women who undergoes the follicle stimulating hormone treatment is required to be monitored closely by their doctor.

III. Side effects
Study show that FSH medication increase the risk of menstrual change and amenorrhea including vagina bleeding and abnormal pain and cramps.

IV. Risks
a) Ectopic pregnancy as resulting of over production of mature eggs being extruded into the Fallopian tube or somewhere else.
b) Miscarriage as resulting of not enough progesterone to support the development of embryo
c) Ovarian cysts

Almost 100% of women who take these types of medication will ovulate, but not all women will get pregnant.
