                               Eating disorders

Eating Disorders are defined as a group of abnormal eating habits associated to a person preoccupation weight, involving either insufficient or excessive food intake.

                                Anorexia nervosa


Anorexia nervosa is a type of eating disorder usually develop in the teen years and effect over 90% of female, because of excessive food restriction and irrational fear to become fat due the wrongly influenced media as attractiveness is equated to thinness.

The Do's and Do not's list

A.1. Primary prevention
Dt. Michael Sidiropoulos in the article of Anorexia Nervosa: The physiological consequences of starvation and the need for primary prevention efforts indicated that there are numerous actions that the physician, along with the family, allied health care workers and/or through a broader public health initiative can accomplish in this particular case that will have longstanding implications on the patient's future development and growth and will increase the likelihood of healthy outcomes through primary
prevention(37).

1. Minimizing social pressures
In the study to evaluation the Sociological factors in the development of eating disorders, Dr Nagel KL, andand Dr. Jones KH. at the University of Georgia indicated that professionals in the educational and physical and mental health care fields need to be aware of the influence of social pressures on teenagers' perceptions of body image and appearance. This article reviews the sociocultural, socioeconomic, and sex-related factors which contribute to the development of eating disorders. It is recommended that professionals help adolescents resist societal pressure to conform to unrealistic standards of appearance, and provide guidance on nutrition, realistic body ideals, and achievement of self-esteem, self-efficacy, interpersonal relations and coping skills(38).

2. Minimizing family issues
Dr. Yager J. in the study of the family issues in the pathogenesis of anorexia nervosa, suggested that factors residing in family systems have been implicated in the pathogenesis of anorexia nervosa. In this paper I critically review literature that bears on this issue: the transmission of anorexia nervosa in families; familystress patterns, personality and psychopathological characteristics of parents, parent-child interactions, and whole family systems. Much additional research is needed to accurately determine the precise nature of such factors and the extent to which they actually contribute to the appearance of this syndrome(39).

3. Reducing individual factors
In the study to examine which unique factors (genetic and environmental) increase the risk for developing anorexia nervosa by using a case-control design of discordant sister pairs, Dr. Karwautz A, and the research team at University of London, suggested that he sisters with anorexia nervosa differed from their healthy sisters in terms of personal vulnerability traits and exposure to high parental expectations and sexual abuse. Factors within the dieting risk domain did not differ. However, there was evidence of poor feeding in childhood. No difference in the distribution of genotypes or alleles of the DRD4, COMT, the 5HT2A and 5HT2C receptor genes was detected. These results are preliminary because our calculations indicate that there is insufficient power to detect the expected effect on risk with this sample size(40).

A.2. Secondary prevention
Secondary prevention focuses early detection and intervention as early detection is often difficult as individuals with eating problems often attempt to conceal their behavior. People such as Parents, peers and siblings, teacher and family doctor are in good position to detect changing attitudes around food,weight, and shape for detecting eating disorder early for effective treatment(41).

                               Duodenal ulcers

Duodenal ulcers, a type of peptic ulcer is defined as a condition of a localized tissue erosion in the lining the duodenum as a result of bacteria Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) in most cases. According to the study by Department of Research, University Hospital, Basel, fasting gastrin and pepsinogen-I and -II concentrations were significantly higher in H pylori positive compared with H pylori negative subjects. Neither age nor sex affected basal gastrin and pepsinogen concentrations in H pylori negative subjects. Fasting gastrin, pepsinogen-I and -II concentrations in serum samples were similar in H pylori positive persons with no symptoms and those with duodenal ulcers suggesting that similar mechanisms are involved in increasing plasma concentrations of these variables in both populations. Hypergastrinaemia and hyperpepsinogenaemia are therefore probably secondary to active H pylori infection(1).

                                The Treatments

In traditional Chinese medicine perspective
In the study to investigate whether the tongue inspection technique in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) can be used as a noninvasive auxiliary diagnostic tool to differentiate the subtypes of peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and as an indicator of therapeutic efficacy, found that the color of the tongue body did not change in the cured patients; however, tongue fur was markedly thinner with a color change to white (p<0.05), while sublingual veins with engorgement (p<0.05) and blood stasis (p<0.01) improved after the ulcer healed and Hp was eradicated and concluded that TCM tongue inspection can be potentially used as a noninvasive auxiliary diagnostic method and as an indicator for clinical outcomes for patients with PUD(37).

1. Hai Gui Yu Yang capsule
In the study to assess the efficacy and safety of haiguiyuyang capsule in the treatment of duodenal ulcer (also diagnosed as weiwan pain and hanrecuoza syndrome according to the theory of TCM), researchers found that the efficacy of haiguiyuyang capsule in treating duodenal ulcer is similar to that of ranitidine. No obvious adverse effect of it was observed in this trial(38)..

2. Kang Wei Granules
Kang Wei Granules, a granular preparation for strengthening the spleen and replenishing Qi and for clearing away heat and resolving dampness, was used in the treatment of 288 cases of gastropathy related to Helicobacter pylori infection. The effects were compared with De Nol triple therapy in the control group of 74 cases. The therapeutic results showed that Kang Wei Granules was superior to the western drugs in improving the principal symptoms of deficiency of the spleen and stomach, and retention of damp-heat in the interior (P < 0.05), according to the study by Beijing TCM Institute(39).

3. Yu Yang powder
In the study of two hundreds patients of peptic ulcer diagnosed by fiber-gastroscope treated with Yuyang powder (YYP) and to compare with patient treated with cimetidine for control, showed that the curative rate of YYP on peptic ulcer was 88.1%, the total effective rate was 96%, similar to that of cimetidine. But the difference of recurrence rate (19.1% for YYP and 46% for control) between the two groups was very significant. Animal experiment revealed that the protective action of YYP with high dosis on gastric mucosa in peptic ulcer and gastritis was superior to that of cimetidine, its has the double effect of both strengthening protective factors and weakening aggressive factors of gastric mucosa(40).

4. Bushen kangkui decoction
The clinical controlled study of Bushen Kangkui Decoction (BSKKD) on 150 peptic ulcer patients showed that it had a similar effect to injectio cimetidine, and had a lower rate of relapse. And the long-term therapeutic effect was better than that of injectio cimetidine, according to the study by Yichun People’s Hospital(41).

5. Wei Yang An (easing peptic-ulcer) capsule)
Tthe effects of the two are similar, but the long-term effect of Wei Yang An was better. Wei Yang An was also good for most cimetidine resistant ulcers, with few side effect. Animal experiment showed that Wei Yang An inhibited the ulcers, according to the study by Hunan Institute of Gerontology(42).

                    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.


                                    Environment Causes

1. Overabundance of men made chemicals
Exposure to men made chemicals can increase the onset of precocious puberty. In a study of “Estrogen-like endocrine disrupting chemicals affecting puberty in humans – a review” by Roy, JR; Chakraborty, S; Chakraborty, TR (2009) researchers found that In girls, DDT has been linked to earlier menarche. Dioxin causes abnormal breast development in pre-pubertal girls. BPA has shown to cause PP in pubertal girls. PBB causes earlier menarche, thelarche and earlier pubic hair stage in pubertal girls. PCB's showed a significant delay in puberty in pubertal boys. De-feminization, thelarche, or early secondary breast development are shown in pubertal girls when exposed to phthalate esters. Endosulfan affects pubertal boys by slowing down the timing of reproductive maturation. This article provides a possible structure-function relation of the above mentioned EEDCs which interfere with sexual development during puberty.
In other study of Endocrine disruption via estrogen receptors that participate in nongenomic signaling pathways” by Watson CS, Jeng YJ, Guptarak J., researchers found that xenoestrogens can alter endogenous estrogens' signaling and thereby disrupt normal signaling pathways, leading to malfunctions in many tissue types. Though these xenoestrogen actions occur rapidly via nongenomic signaling pathways,

2. Environment xanoestrogen
Exposure to xanoestrogen such as Bisphenol A can increase the onset of precocious puberty, due to estrogen domination. In a study of Neonatal Exposure to Bisphenol A Alters Reproductive Parameters and Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Signaling in Female Rats by Marina Fernández, Maria Bianchi, Victoria Lux-Lantos, Carlos Libertun, researchers found that Neonatal exposure to BPA altered reproductive parameters and hypothalamic–pituitary function in female rats. To our knowledge, these results demonstrate for the first time that neonatal in vivoBPA permanently affects GnRH pulsatility and pituitary GnRH signaling.

3. Growth hormone in dairy production
Commercial beef and pasteurised dairy products consistently have the highest levels of growth hormone and have serious estrogenic and carcinogenic effects, they not only can cause breast cancer but also may enhance the precocious puberty.

Health benefits
A. health benefits according to studies
1. Acute cough in children
In the investigation of the effectiveness of honey for acute cough in children in ambulatory settings found that Dextromethorphan and honey did not differ significantly on cough frequency (MD -0.49; 95% CI -1.15 to 0.17); cough severity (MD -0.50; 95% CI -1.28 to 0.29), bothersome cough (MD -0.29; 95% CI -1.14 to 0.56) and sleep quality of the children (MD -0.70; 95% CI -1.57 to 0.17) or their parents (MD -0.34; 95% CI -1.24 to 0.55) and concluded that we found insufficient evidence to advise for or against the use of honey for acute cough in children, according to "Honey for acute cough in children" by Oduwole O, Meremikwu MM, Oyo-Ita A, Udoh EE.(a)

2. Wound healing
In the assessment of Potential role of honeyon wound healing found that honeymay improve healing times in mild to moderate superficial and partial thickness burns compared with some conventional dressings. Honey dressings as an adjuvant to compression do not significantly increase leg ulcer healing at 12 weeks. There is insufficient evidence to guide clinical practice in other areas. according to "Honey as a topical treatment for wounds" by Jull AB, Rodgers A, Walker N.(b)

3. Antiproliferative effect
In the identification of honey and its effect on keloid fibroblasts found that the methanolic honey extraction has an antiproliferative effect on keloid fibroblasts and a range of volatile compounds has been identified from Tualang honey. The antiproliferative effect of keloid fibroblasts towards Tualang honey may involve cell signaling pathway. Identifying other volatile compounds from different organic solvents should be carried out in future, according to "Antiproliferative effect of methanolic extraction of tualang honey on human keloid fibroblasts" by Nurul Syazana MS, Halim AS, Gan SH, Shamsuddin S.(c)

4. Antibacterial properties
In the classification of Honey possesses therapeutic potential on antibiotic resistance of bacteria
found that Tualang honey exhibited variable activities against different microorganisms, but they were within the same range as those for manuka honey. This result suggests that tualang honey could potentially be used as an alternative therapeutic agent against certain microorganisms, particularly A. baumannii and S. maltophilia, according to "The antibacterial properties of Malaysian tualanghoney against wound and enteric microorganisms in comparison to manukahoney" by Tan HT, Rahman RA, Gan SH, Halim AS, Hassan SA, Sulaiman SA, Kirnpal-Kaur B.(d)

5. Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects
In assessment of Tualang honey and its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects found that Tualang honey has almost the equal effects when compared with the conventional treatment in treating alkali injury on rabbit's eye. Future research with more number of rabbits and control group is warranted to explore the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of Tualang honey, according to "Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of Tualang honey in alkali injury on the eyes of rabbits: experimental animal study" by Bashkaran K, Zunaina E, Bakiah S, Sulaiman SA, Sirajudeen K, Naik V.(e)

6. Etc.

B. Health benefits according to concentration
Energy
Honey contains high amount of glucose and fructose that are simple sugar (monosaccharide) played an important role to enhance energy production in carbohydrate metabolism, as they
are absorbed by the body quickly through insulin and potassium.

C. Other health benefits
1. Antiseptic and antibacterial properties
Recently research study that honey have the antiseptic and antibacterial properties as it increases the immune system in fighting the forming of free radicals causes of inflammation and infection causes of infection due to enzyme glucose oxidase, according to the study of `Antibacterial properties of tualang honey and its effect in burn wound management: a comparative study`by Nasir NA, Halim AS, Singh KK, Dorai AA, Haneef MN., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20576085), researchers found that Tualanghoney has a bactericidal as well as bacteriostatic effect. It is useful as a dressing, as it is easier to apply and is less sticky compared to Manuka honey. However, for Gram positive bacteria, tualang honey is not as effective as usual care products such as silver-based dressing or medical grade honey dressing.

2. Diabetes chronic wound
External used is proven to be effective for treating diabetes chronic wound that antibiotic can not be used, according to the study of `Safety and efficacy of a new honey ointment on diabetic foot ulcers: a prospective pilot study`by Abdelatif M, Yakoot M, Etmaan M., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18376651, researchers indicated that Ninety-six per cent of the patients in groups 1 and 2 responded well, with a complete cure, defined as'complete closure of the ulcer without signs of underlying bone infection' by the end of week 9 and for the duration of the six-month follow-up period. All of the ulcers in group 1 healed, as did 92% of those in group 2. All patients in group 3 healed following surgical excision, debridement of necrotic tissue and conservative treatment with PEDYPHAR ointment.

3. Phosphorus
Beside providing strength to bones and teeth by working together with calcium according to the study of `[The effect of one year therapy with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on growth velocity, calcium-phosphorusmetabolism, bone mineral density and changes in body composition in children with growth hormone deficiency (GHD)].[Article in Polish]`by Zak T, Basiak A, Zubkiewicz-Kucharska A, Noczyńska A., posted in PubMed(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20529605), it also works with riboflavin and niacin to improve the digestive system in absorbing vital nutrients.

4. Iron and iron deficiency anemia
Iron is essential for the production of red blood cells and carrying life-giving oxygen to human cells. Deficiency of iron causes anemia, anemia of chronic disease, cough, anemia in pregnancy, etc., leading to reducing blood flow to the reproductive organ according to the study of `The effects of iron deficiency on estradiol-induced suppression of erythropoietin induction in rats: implications of pregnancy-related anemia` by Horiguchi H, Oguma E, Kayama F., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15784734)

Health benefits
A. Health benefits according to studies
1. Antioxidant
In the investigation of raw cane sugar, plant saps/syrups (eg, maple syrup, agave nectar), molasses, honey, and fruit sugars (eg, date sugar) and the total antioxidant content of natural sweeteners found that ark and blackstrap molasseshad the highest FRAP (4.6 to 4.9 mmol/100 g), while maple syrup, brown sugar, and honey showed intermediate antioxidant capacity (0.2 to 0.7 mmol FRAP/100 g). Based on an average intake of 130 g/day refined sugars and the antioxidant activity measured in typical diets, substituting alternative sweeteners could increase antioxidant intake an average of 2.6 mmol/day, similar to the amount found in a serving of berries or nuts, according to "Total antioxidant content of alternatives to refined sugar" by Phillips KM, Carlsen MH, Blomhoff R.(a)

2. Vibrio furnissii M1
In the observation of "Production of alternatives to fuel oil from organic waste by the alkane-producing bacterium, found that Crude blackstrap molasses were also converted into alkanes with a conversion ratio of 20% (half of that in an authentic sucrose medium) of the total carbon consumption, according to "Production of alternatives to fuel oil from organic waste by the alkane-producing bacterium, Vibrio furnissii M1" by Park MO, Heguri K, Hirata K, Miyamoto K.(b)

3. Microbial production
In the observation of microbial production of fermentation of blackstrap molasses
found that A two-stage fermentation process was developed for the conversion of sugar or molasses of various types to propionic acid and vitamin B12. By fermentation of blackstrap molasses (from sugar beet and sugar cane) in the first fermentation stage 17.7 g propionic acid l-1 with a yield of 0.5 g propionic acid g-1 carbohydrate was produced with a dilution rate of 0.25 h-1. In the second stage 49 mg vitamin B12 1-1 was produced at a dilution rate of 0.03 h-1.(c)

B. Health benefits according to concentration
1. Manganese
Beside it is important in forming connective tissues and building of essential enzymes for building healthy bones, manganese also helps in regulating the normal function of of thyroid growth hormone, according to the study of "The effect of manganese supply on thyroid hormone metabolism in the offspring ofmanganese-depleted dams" by Eder K, Kralik A, Kirchgessner M., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8971361) and blood sugar level, according to the study of "Manganese corroles prevent intracellular nitration and subsequent death of insulin-producing cells" by Okun Z, Kupershmidt L, Amit T, Mandel S, Bar-Am O, Youdim MB, Gross Z., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19715343)

2. Copper and Iron
Copper plays a role in a wide range of physiological processes, such as iron utilization of enhancing the hemoglobin. and reduction of malabsorption syndrome. according to the study of "Beneficial effect of goat milk on nutritive utilization ofiron and copper in malabsorption syndrome" by Barrionuevo M, Alferez MJ, Lopez AI, Sanz SM, Campos MS., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11949871). Iron is an integral component of hemoglobin in transporting oxygen from the lungs to all body cells, thus increasing the energy use for daily activities.

3. Calcium
In the investigation of micronutrients, calcium (Ca) and inorganic (i) phosphate (P) ,the two main constituents of hydroxyapatite and theirs effect on bone health found that they are endowed with a transport system that accumulates Pi inside the matrix vesicles, followed by the influx of Ca ions. This process leads to the formation of hydroxyapatite crystal and its subsequent association with the organic matrix collagen fibrils. In addition to this structural role, both Ca and Pi positively influence the activity of bone-forming and bone-resorbing cells. Pi plays a role in the maturation of osteocytes, the most abundant cells in bone. Osteocytes are implicated in bone mineralization and systemic Pi homeostasis, according to"Calcium and phosphate: a duet of ions playing for bone health" by Bonjour JP.(1)

4. Potassium
Potassium beside is important in maintaining the regular contraction and relaxation of the muscle, that helps to reducing the risk of hypokalemia, it also helps the lymphatic system in regulating the levels of fluid in the body, thus lessening the risk of lymphedema, swelling caused by the accumulation of lymph fluid. In a study of "Narrative review: evolving concepts in potassium homeostasis andhypokalemia" by Greenlee M, Wingo CS, McDonough AA, Youn JH, Kone BC., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19414841), researchers found that recent experimental insights into the participation of feedback and feedforward control mechanisms in potassium homeostasis. New data make clear that feedforward homeostatic responses activate when decreased potassiumintake is sensed, even when plasma potassium concentration is still within the normal range and before frank hypokalemia ensues, in addition to the classic feedback activation of renal potassium conservation when plasma potassiumconcentration decreases.

C. Other health benefits

1. Bone density

Since blackstrap molassaes contains high amount of calcium, it helps to build stronger, denser bones early in life and keeps bones strong and healthy later in life, thus reducing the risk of osteoporosis. Vitamin D is necessary for the absorption of calcium, according to the article of "Calcium supplements in people with osteoporosi" by John G F Cleland, Klaus Witte, Sue Steel, posted in BMJ (http://www.bmj.com/content/341/bmj.c3856.full), researchers wrote that Calcium supplements, given alone, improve bone mineral density,but they are ineffective in reducing the risk of fractures and might even increase risk.



3. Glucose and Fructose
Glucose and Fructose are simple sugar (monosaccharide) played an important role to enhance energy production in carbohydrate metabolism for brain cells need, through a chain chemical action of insulin produced by pancreas and potassium.

4. Magnesium
Beside helping to maintain the healthy bone through the proper ratio with calcium, according to the study of "Magnesium deficiency and osteoporosis: animal and human observations" by Rude RK, Gruber HE., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15607643) magnesium also plays an essential role in relieving acute asthma by promoting the relaxation of bronchial muscles and normalizing breathing, according to the study of "Inhaled magnesiumsulfate in the treatment of acute asthma" by Blitz M, Blitz S, Beasely R, Diner BM, Hughes R, Knopp JA, Rowe BH., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16235345) researchers found that Nebulised inhaled magnesium sulfate in addition to beta2-agonist in the treatment of an acuteasthma exacerbation, appears to have benefits with respect to improved pulmonary function in patients with severe asthma and there is a trend towards benefit in hospital admission. Heterogeneity between trials included in this review precludes a more definitive conclusion.

                     Seafoods - Tuna




Tuna is salt water fish found in the warm water areas of the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans as well as the Mediterranean Sea, belong to genius Thunnus from the family Scombridae. Some tuna species have evolved and become warm-blooded adaptations as they can raise their body temperatures above water temperatures to enhance muscular activity and adapt to survive in cooler waters and a wider range of ocean environments.

Health benefits
A. Health benefits according to studies
1. Cardiovascular health
In the investigation of fish consumption and its effect on cardiovascular diseases found that , consumption of tuna or other broiled or baked fish was associated with lower risk of total IHD death (P for trend=0.001) and arrhythmic IHD death (P=0.001) but not nonfatal MI (P=0.44), with 49% lower risk of total IHD death and 58% lower risk of arrhythmic IHD death among persons consuming tuna/other fish 3 or more times per week compared with less than once per month, according to "Cardiac benefits of fish consumption may depend on the type of fish meal consumed: the Cardiovascular Health Study" by Mozaffarian D, Lemaitre RN, Kuller LH, Burke GL, Tracy RP, Siscovick DS; Cardiovascular Health Study.(a)

2. Good Cholesterol
In the assessment of information about fatty acid profile and cholesterol content of fat extracted from canned fish in brine habitually consumed in Chile, found that they really represent a good dietary source of mainly polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acids. The international recommendations indicate to increase the consumption of fish, due the beneficial effects described in relation with cardiovascular disease, according to "[Fatty acid composition and cholesterolcontent in naturally canned jurel, sardine, salmon, and tuna].

[Article in Spanish]" by Romero N, Robert P, Masson L, Luck C, Buschmann L.(b)


3. Plasma triacylglycerol
In the observation of rich source of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), two long-chain polyunsaturated n-3 fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFA) of seal oil and tuna-fish oil and their effects in heart health found that plasma triacylglycerol decreased (P = 0.03) and HDL-cholesterol levels increased (P = 0.01) with seal oil only. Hence, seal oil may be more efficient than fish oil at promoting healthy plasma lipid profiles and lowering thrombotic risk, possibly due to its high DPA as well as EPA content, according to "Effects of seal oil andtuna-fish oil on platelet parameters and plasma lipid levels in healthy subjects" by

Mann NJ, O'Connell SL, Baldwin KM, Singh I, Meyer BJ.(c)

4. Plasma lipid levels and blood pressure
in the examination of rich source of the omega-3 fatty acid docosapentaenoic acid (DPA) and its effect on plasma lipid levels and blood pressure that reductions of 7 and 14% (P < 0.05) were seen in the fish oil and seal oil groups respectively. Systolic blood pressure improved by 8 and 5 mmHg with seal oil and fish oil respectively (P < 0.05). The mean arterial pressure was significantly lower after seal oil supplementation (P < 0.005) compared with the placebo group. These results indicate that seal oil is as effective as fish oil in lowering plasma triglycerides and blood pressure, according to "Comparison of seal oil to tuna oil on plasma lipid levels and blood pressure in hypertriglyceridaemic subjects" by Meyer BJ, Lane AE, Mann NJ.(d)

5. Stroke
In the identification of the preventive role of Mediterranean diet in the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases, chronic neurodegenerative diseases and neoplasms, obesity and diabetes found that Fish is considered an excellent source of protein with low saturated fat, nutritious trace elements, long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCn3PUFAs), and vitamins D and B. Fish consumption may be inversely associated with ischemic stroke but not with hemorrhagic stroke because of the potential antiplatelet aggregation property of LCn3PUFAs. Total stroke risk reduction was statistically significant for fish intake once per week, while the risk of stroke was lowered by 31% in individuals who ate fish 5 times or more per week. In the elderly, moderate consumption of tuna/other fish, but not fried fish, was associated with lower prevalence of subclinical infarcts and white matter abnormalities on MRI examination, according to "Mediterranean diet in healthy lifestyle and prevention of stroke" by Demarin V, Lisak M, Morović S.(e)

B. Health benefits according to concentration
1. 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.

2. Selenium
Turkey contains trace minerals selenium which is essential for the healthy function of the thyroid and immune system as it increases the antioxidant defense system by fighting against the forming of free radicals and reduce the risk of irregular cells growth causes of tumor and cancer, according to the study of "Selenium in theimmune system" by Arthur JR, McKenzie RC, Beckett GJ., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12730442)

3. Protein
In the research of the importance of dietary proteins influence body weight by affecting four targets for body weight regulation: satiety, thermogenesis, energy efficiency, and body composition, found that Ingestion of dietary proteins in diabetes type 1 exerts a delayed postprandial increase in blood glucose levels due to protein-induced stimulation of pancreatic glucagon secretion. Higher than minimal amounts of protein in the diet needed for nitrogen balance may play animportant role for the increasing number of elderly obese subjects in our industrialized societies, since proteins exert beneficial effects in the conditions of overweight, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular risk factors, bone health, and sarcopenia. Adverse effects of increased dietary proteins have been observed in subjects with renal impairment- this problem is frequently observed in the elderly, hypertensive, and diabetic population. Nevertheless, dietary proteins deserve more attention than they have received in the past, according to "Dietary proteins in obesity and in diabetes" by Keller U.(I)

4. Vitamin B3
Vitamin B3 or Niacin is essential for lowering high cholesterol levels, according to the study of "Cholesterol efflux potential and antiinflammatory properties of high-density lipoprotein after treatment with niacin or anacetrapib" by Yvan-Charvet L, Kling J, Pagler T, Li H, Hubbard B, Fisher T, Sparrow CP, Taggart AK, Tall AR., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20448206), forming the components of cells' genetic material DNA during excision repair, according to the study of "Niacin deficiency delays DNA excision repair and increases spontaneous and nitrosourea-induced chromosomal instability in rat bone marrow" by
Kostecki LM, Thomas M, Linford G, Lizotte M, Toxopeus L, Bartleman AP, Kirkland JB., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17618655) and treating diabetes and high blood sugar levels, according to the study of "Treatment of dyslipidemia in patients with type 2 diabetes" by Vijayaraghavan K., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21172030), researcher indicated that a number of lipid-lowering agents, including statins, fibrates, niacin, and bile acid sequestrants, are available to target normalization of the entire lipid profile.

5. Vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 or Pyridoxine beside is important in enhancing the developing red blood cells by stimulating the production of hemoglobin, it also helps to keep blood sugar levels steady during the process of breaking down stored energy in gestation pregnancy, according to the study of "Improvement of oral glucose tolerance in gestational diabetes by pyridoxine" by Bennink HJ, Schreurs WH., posted in PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1131652)
