Scientists may have found a herbal plant which processes a strong potential for the treatment of cancer without inducing any side effects, some studies suggested.
Cancers are a class of diseases associated with the irregular and disorder cell growth in the tissue or organs in the body due to the alternation of cell DNA.
Most cases of cancer start in the cells on the surface of the inner lining of the tissue and organ tissue. However, as the cancer proliferation, they can penetrate into the deeper layers of the tissue or organ.
At the advanced stage, the primary cancer site can travel a distance away from the primary site to infect other healthy tissue and organ through fluids and blood circulation.
The exact causes of cancer are unknown. According to the epidemiological studies, the most common risk factors associated with the early onset of the diseases are smoking and tobacco, diet, physical inactivity, long-term exposure to the.sun and radiation and a certain type of virus and bacteria.
Out of all the risk factors that increase the cancer risk, physical activity is one of the factors which has not been under intensified study by the science community.
In the study to examine the accumulate on the benefits of physical activity in relation to cancer risk, progression, and mortality, researchers suggested
* Sedentary behavior may independently affect cancer risk
* The associations with physical activity, including cancer risk factors existed for precancerous lesions.
Although researchers know that physical activity is an important issue associated with the onset of cancer, they do not know the subgroup risk defined by body size, age or sex and tumors subgroups defined by the organ location, receptor status, or molecular subtype.
Chamomile is also known as camomile, the common name of many species daisy-like plants in the family Asteraceae.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory constituents and to treat menstrual cramps and sleep disorders, reduce cramping and spastic pain in the bowels, relieve excessive gas and bloating in the intestine, etc.
In the reaffirming the traditional use of chamomile for the treatment of chronic ailments, researchers examine the anticancer properties of aqueous and methanolic extracts of chamomile against various human cancer cell lines.
Chamomile extracts a significant decrease in cell viability in various human cancer cell lines without inducing herm to the healthy cells.
Injection of the herbal extract causes the apoptosis of cancer cells, causing herm to the normal cells.
The anti cancers effect of chamomile extract was attributed to the bioactive compound apigenin 7-O-glucoside, the major constituent of chamomile; some minor glycoside components.
These results reconfirm the use of chamomile extract in the treatment of cancers in traditional medicine.
Furthermore, the study to compare the anticancer activity of phenolic profile of six herbal infusions namely Cretan marjoram, pink savory, oregano, mountain tea, pennyroyal and chamomile by LCDAD-MS and by GC-MS, suggested
* All herbal infusions exhibit antiradical activity correlated positively with total phenolic content
* All infusions exhibit the potential to inhibit cell proliferation and to reduce IL-8 levels in HT29 colon and PC3 prostate cancer cells.
* The efficacy of all herbal medicines in inhibition of cancer cell line was attributed to the activation of the proteins associated with the cell death programming and production of the inflammatory cytokine.
Interestingly, in the comparison the cancer property of 20 essential oil from herbal plants, Dr. Mitoshi M, the lead scientists indicated, EOs from the herbal plants showed patterns of inhibition of DNA replicative property, similar to their cancer cell growth inhibitory activity, and their inhibitory activity and EOs from chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) showed significant effects on both cancer cell growth and mast cell degranulation.
Taken altogether, chamomile extract, essential oil may be used with no side effects for the prevention and combined with the primary medicine for the treatment of cancers.

Ginger, The Best Functional Food For Symptoms of Nausea and Vomiting
Scientists may have discovered a pungent and kitchen spice which processes a significant effect in reducing nausea and vomiting with no side effects, according to some studies.
Nausea and vomiting are the natural protection of the digestive system reacted to many causes, including food poisoning, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining), an ulcer, or bulimia.
Morning sickness or nausea and vomiting are common experiences in pregnancy, affecting 70–80% of all pregnant women.
Nausea and vomiting that often develop by five to six weeks of pregnancy are the results of the rise of the hormone estrogen in the early stage of pregnancy. The syndrome may get even worse in women have a sensitive stomach which tries to adapt to the changes of pregnancy.
Morning sickness in the pregnancy may seem obvious in general population, however in a group of women with severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy due to hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), an entity distinct from nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP), may lead to significant maternal and fetal morbidity if untreated.
Dr.Noel M. Lee, the lead author at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health in the study " Nausea and Vomiting of Pregnancy" said, "Various metabolic and neuromuscular factors have been implicated in the pathogenesis of NVP and HG; however, their exact cause is unknown. Consequently, treatment of NVP and HG can be difficult as neither the optimal targets for treatment nor the full effects of potential treatments on the developing fetus are known".
Where hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a pregnancy complication characterized by severe nausea, vomiting, weight loss, and possibly dehydration.
Other causes of nausea and vomiting are due to the prolonged period of exposure to stress and long-term fatigue.
Patients who are having chemotherapy are associated with an increased risk of nausea and vomiting because of the injection of chemo drugs can affect parts of the stomach and brain that detect toxic (poisonous) substances.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The pungent spice has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
With an aim to clarify the effect of ginger extract in treating chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV), a joint study led by Taipei Medical University-Shuang Ho Hospital was conducted to determine whether ginger could be used to treat CINV, which was interpreted using the PICOS (patient, problem/population, intervention, comparison, outcome, study) framework, with P being patients who underwent chemotherapy.
After searching the studies in English from 2000 to 2017 databases. 2 on a total of 10 studies with complete data. was included in the meta-analysis using Comprehensive Meta-analysis.
Ginger exerted a significant effect in reducing the symptoms of nausea and vomiting with the odds ratio (OR) of 0.71
Further analysis also discovered that ginger could only reduce acute CINV in patients, particularly acute vomiting.
After taking additional ]assessment of the co and confounders, Dr. Chang WP the lead scientist said, "Ginger displayed significant efficacy with regard to controlling CINV in the experimental groups".
In the reaffirming the effect of ginger in the early pregnancy symptoms of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP), a joint study led by the Iran University of Medical Sciences launched an evaluation to compare the effects of ginger, pyridoxine (vitamin B6), and placebo.
The triple blind clinical trial on pregnant women suffering mild to moderate NVP between 6 and 16 weeks of pregnancy.
In these women ginger, 500 mg twice daily, vitamin B6 40 mg twice daily and placebo twice daily were administered for 4 d.
The severity of NVP was evaluated 24 h before entering the study and up to 4 d after using medications and results were compared among the three groups.
The women of the three groups did not have significant differences according to age, gestational age, parity, and severity of each symptom before treatment and educational status.
After assessing the returned questionnaires, researchers indicated
* Ginger and vitamin B6 could reduce the severity of all items of Rhodes questionnaire significantly.
* Ginger and vitamin B6 were more effective than placebo
* total score of Rhodes did not show a significant difference between ginger and vitamin B6 (p = .128). Ginger was more effective for nausea (intensity and distress).
These results once again illustrate the efficacy of ginger in the treatment of nausea and vomiting in early pregnancy.
Taken altogether, there is no doubt that ginger may be used as a functional food for the treatment of nausea and vomiting in both early pregnancy and side effects of chemo treatment.

Herbal Chamomile Kills Cancer Cells Before They Can Spread
Scientists may have found a herbal plant which processes a strong potential for the treatment of cancer without inducing any side effects, some studies suggested.
Cancers are a class of diseases associated with the irregular and disorder cell growth in the tissue or organs in the body due to the alternation of cell DNA.
Most cases of cancer start in the cells on the surface of the inner lining of the tissue and organ tissue. However, as the cancer proliferation, they can penetrate into the deeper layers of the tissue or organ.
At the advanced stage, the primary cancer site can travel a distance away from the primary site to infect other healthy tissue and organ through fluids and blood circulation.
The exact causes of cancer are unknown. According to the epidemiological studies, the most common risk factors associated with the early onset of the diseases are smoking and tobacco, diet, physical inactivity, long-term exposure to the.sun and radiation and a certain type of virus and bacteria.
Out of all the risk factors that increase the cancer risk, physical activity is one of the factors which has not been under intensified study by the science community.
In the study to examine the accumulate on the benefits of physical activity in relation to cancer risk, progression, and mortality, researchers suggested
* Sedentary behavior may independently affect cancer risk
* The associations with physical activity, including cancer risk factors existed for precancerous lesions.
Although researchers know that physical activity is an important issue associated with the onset of cancer, they do not know the subgroup risk defined by body size, age or sex and tumors subgroups defined by the organ location, receptor status, or molecular subtype.
Chamomile is also known as camomile, the common name of many species daisy-like plants in the family Asteraceae.
The herb has been used in traditional medicine as antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory constituents and to treat menstrual cramps and sleep disorders, reduce cramping and spastic pain in the bowels, relieve excessive gas and bloating in the intestine, etc.
In the reaffirming the traditional use of chamomile for the treatment of chronic ailments, researchers examine the anticancer properties of aqueous and methanolic extracts of chamomile against various human cancer cell lines.
Chamomile extracts a significant decrease in cell viability in various human cancer cell lines without inducing herm to the healthy cells.
Injection of the herbal extract causes the apoptosis of cancer cells, causing herm to the normal cells.
The anti cancers effect of chamomile extract was attributed to the bioactive compound apigenin 7-O-glucoside, the major constituent of chamomile; some minor glycoside components.
These results reconfirm the use of chamomile extract in the treatment of cancers in traditional medicine.
Furthermore, the study to compare the anticancer activity of phenolic profile of six herbal infusions namely Cretan marjoram, pink savory, oregano, mountain tea, pennyroyal and chamomile by LCDAD-MS and by GC-MS, suggested
* All herbal infusions exhibit antiradical activity correlated positively with total phenolic content
* All infusions exhibit the potential to inhibit cell proliferation and to reduce IL-8 levels in HT29 colon and PC3 prostate cancer cells.
* The efficacy of all herbal medicines in inhibition of cancer cell line was attributed to the activation of the proteins associated with the cell death programming and production of the inflammatory cytokine.
Interestingly, in the comparison the cancer property of 20 essential oil from herbal plants, Dr. Mitoshi M, the lead scientists indicated, EOs from the herbal plants showed patterns of inhibition of DNA replicative property, similar to their cancer cell growth inhibitory activity, and their inhibitory activity and EOs from chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) showed significant effects on both cancer cell growth and mast cell degranulation.

Ginger, the Potent anti Metabolic Syndrome Pungent Spice, Scientists Say
Ginger may have a potential and profound effect in regulating the expression of metabolic syndrome, some scientists suggested.
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions associated with the onset of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, including fat around the waist, elevated blood pressure, high triglycerides, elevated blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.
Researchers suggested that people who have 3 of 5 above conditions are at substantial risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
There is no single cause of metabolic syndrome. some conditions epidemiologically are associated with overweight or obese, insulin resistance, inactive lifestyle and poor diet.
According to the statistic, In the US, approximately, over 23 percent of adults have metabolic syndrome, many of them do not know they have it.
In fact, metabolic syndrome can be reversed through a healthy lifestyle choice, accompanied by weight loss.
Dr. Christos Pitsavos, the cardio team at the University of Athens and Society for Biomedical Diabetes Research, wrote, "Several epidemiologic studies and some clinical trials, it has been suggested that people with the metabolic syndrome may benefit from intensive lifestyle modifications including dietary changes and adopting a physically more active lifestyle."
"During the last decades increasing scientific evidence has emerged that protective health effects can be obtained from diets that are rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains, and which include fish, nuts, and low-fat dairy products".
These results clearly stated that by changing the poor diet pattern to a healthy one accompanied with moderate exercise, metabolic syndrome can be reserved.
Furthermore, a healthy lifestyle in patients with metabolic syndrome also greatly improved the reduction of body weight.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The root has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
With an aim to find a natural ingredient or whole food for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, researchers assess the effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and/or components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) by searching the database of medical literature.
10 studies met the inclusion criteria with a total of 490 individuals were included in the review.
Ginger showed a significant beneficial effect on glucose control and insulin sensitivity.
Ginger significantly reduced fasting blood glucose in T2DM patients (-21.24; 95% CI: -33.21, -9.26; P < 0.001) and three-month average plasma glucose concentration.
Futhermore, ginger also displayed significant effects of improvement of lipid profile.
Dr. Zhu J, the lead scientist said, at the final report "Based on the negligible side effects and obvious ameliorative effects on glucose control, insulin sensitivity, and lipid profile, ginger may be a promising adjuvant therapy for T2DM and MetS".
Moreover, in order to gain more evidence of ginger anti-metabolic syndrome effect, a study to determine the individual and concomitant effect of 6-weeks water-based exercise and oral ginger supplement on markers that have related to metabolic syndrome and systemic inflammation in obese women with breast neoplasms was conducted the University of Mazandaran.
40 women diagnosed with breast neoplasms were randomly assigned into four groups; placebo, exercise training, ginger supplement, and exercise training+ ginger supplement groups.
Participants in the ginger supplement group and the exercise training+ ginger supplement group have orally received 4 capsules, 7 days a week and for 6 weeks.
During the experiment, the ginger supplementation and the water-based exercise have resulted in a reduction of hs-CRP, IL-10 (inflammation), insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG); but an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and ratio HDL/LDL.
These results strongly suggested that ginger supplement plus exercise demonstrates a significant effect in reducing the fasting glucose, insulin resistance, inflammation, and lipid profile and balanced the ratio of high and low-density lipoproteins.
In other words, the water-based exercise and ginger supplement group significantly showed a larger positive effect on all outcomes, compared to the water-based exercise or ginger supplement alone groups.
The findings suggested that obese breast neoplasms survivors metabolic syndrome and elevated inflammation were totally inhibited by the application of ginger supplement plus exercise training.
Taken altogether, ginger, the pungent spice can be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome accompanied by moderate exercise without inducing any adverse effects.

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions associated with the onset of cardiovascular disease and diabetes, including fat around the waist, elevated blood pressure, high triglycerides, elevated blood sugar, and low HDL cholesterol.
Researchers suggested that people who have 3 of 5 above conditions are at substantial risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
There is no single cause of metabolic syndrome. some conditions epidemiologically are associated with overweight or obese, insulin resistance, inactive lifestyle and poor diet.
According to the statistic, In the US, approximately, over 23 percent of adults have metabolic syndrome, many of them do not know they have it.
In fact, metabolic syndrome can be reversed through a healthy lifestyle choice, accompanied by weight loss.
Dr. Christos Pitsavos, the cardio team at the University of Athens and Society for Biomedical Diabetes Research, wrote, "Several epidemiologic studies and some clinical trials, it has been suggested that people with the metabolic syndrome may benefit from intensive lifestyle modifications including dietary changes and adopting a physically more active lifestyle."
"During the last decades increasing scientific evidence has emerged that protective health effects can be obtained from diets that are rich in fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains, and which include fish, nuts, and low-fat dairy products".
These results clearly stated that by changing the poor diet pattern to a healthy one accompanied with moderate exercise, metabolic syndrome can be reserved.
Furthermore, a healthy lifestyle in patients with metabolic syndrome also greatly improved the reduction of body weight.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The root has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
With an aim to find a natural ingredient or whole food for the treatment of metabolic syndrome, researchers assess the effects of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and/or components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) by searching the database of medical literature.
10 studies met the inclusion criteria with a total of 490 individuals were included in the review.
Ginger showed a significant beneficial effect on glucose control and insulin sensitivity.
Ginger significantly reduced fasting blood glucose in T2DM patients (-21.24; 95% CI: -33.21, -9.26; P < 0.001) and three-month average plasma glucose concentration.
Futhermore, ginger also displayed significant effects of improvement of lipid profile.
Dr. Zhu J, the lead scientist said, at the final report "Based on the negligible side effects and obvious ameliorative effects on glucose control, insulin sensitivity, and lipid profile, ginger may be a promising adjuvant therapy for T2DM and MetS".
Moreover, in order to gain more evidence of ginger anti-metabolic syndrome effect, a study to determine the individual and concomitant effect of 6-weeks water-based exercise and oral ginger supplement on markers that have related to metabolic syndrome and systemic inflammation in obese women with breast neoplasms was conducted the University of Mazandaran.
40 women diagnosed with breast neoplasms were randomly assigned into four groups; placebo, exercise training, ginger supplement, and exercise training+ ginger supplement groups.
Participants in the ginger supplement group and the exercise training+ ginger supplement group have orally received 4 capsules, 7 days a week and for 6 weeks.
During the experiment, the ginger supplementation and the water-based exercise have resulted in a reduction of hs-CRP, IL-10 (inflammation), insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG); but an increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and ratio HDL/LDL.
These results strongly suggested that ginger supplement plus exercise demonstrates a significant effect in reducing the fasting glucose, insulin resistance, inflammation, and lipid profile and balanced the ratio of high and low-density lipoproteins.
In other words, the water-based exercise and ginger supplement group significantly showed a larger positive effect on all outcomes, compared to the water-based exercise or ginger supplement alone groups.
The findings suggested that obese breast neoplasms survivors metabolic syndrome and elevated inflammation were totally inhibited by the application of ginger supplement plus exercise training.
Taken altogether, ginger, the pungent spice can be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of metabolic syndrome accompanied by moderate exercise without inducing any adverse effects.

Chaste tree berry (Vitex agnus-castus), the Functional Herb for the Prevention and Treatment of on Hyperprolactinemia with No Side Effects
Hyperprolinaemia is a condition characterized by overexpression of the level of prolactin in the blood produced by the lactotroph cells of the anterior pituitary gland.
Normally, the expression of hormone prolactin is to enhance breast development during pregnancy and to induce lactation.
In non-pregnant women, elevated levels of prolactin can disrupt the normal menstrual period in women, causing the complication of infertility, abnormal lactation, amenorrhea, irregular periods, breast pain and painful sexual intercourse.
Most common caused of the onset of hyperlactatemia is the result of the growth of a tumor on the pituitary gland. Most cases of the pituitary gland are noninvasive, however, if the tumor is growing large enough, it can suppress the nearby nerve cells, causing headache and vision problems.
Some researchers suggested the syndrome can also be caused by long-term use of certain medication.
Dr. Daria La Torre, the lead author in the study "Pharmacological causes of hyperprolactinemia" said, "Several drugs may determine a significant increase in prolactin serum concentration that is frequently associated with symptoms. The so-called typical antipsychotics are frequently responsible for drug-related hyperprolactinemia"
And, "Risperidone is one of the atypical neuroleptics most likely to induce hyperprolactinemia, while other atypical drugs are infrequently and only transiently associated with increase of prolactin levels" and "Antidepressant drugs with serotoninergic activity, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAO-I) and some tricyclics, can cause hyperprolactinemia.".
Therefore, if you are taking the above medication, please make sure you discuss the problem with your doctor.
In fact, some women experience the syndrome of hyperprolactinemia with unknown causes.
Most common conventional treatment target the symptoms and reducing the size of the tumor. The unknown causes of hyperprolactinemia are treated with synthetic thyroid hormone.
Medication used for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia including Medical treatment of dopamine agonists (DA): bromocriptine, lisuride, quinagolide, and cabergoline. And in over 80% of cases, these drugs induce normal prolactinemia and ovulatory cycles.
If you are taking one of these medications for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia, please make you know all the side effects
Chaste tree berry is a species of Vitex agnus-castus, genus Vitex, belonging to the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region,.
The plant has been used in herbal medicine for thousands of year as an anaphrodisiac herb and considered a Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts by taking it in a prolonged period of time.
There was a report that chaste tree berry stems and leaves used by women as bedding "to cool the heat of lust" during the time of the Thesmophoria.
With an aim to reaffirming the traditional use of Vitex agnus-castus L. (chaste tree; chaste berry for the treatment of a range of female reproductive conditions in Anglo-American and European practice, researchers at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology-University conducted an experiment to examine the effect of the herbal medicine in women with premenstrual syndrome, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and latent hyperprolactinaemia.
In the search based on the Cochrane risk of bias and Jadad scales on the database of medical literature identifies 13 Thirteen randomized, controlled trials and twelve are included in this review, of which eight investigated premenstrual syndrome, two premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and two latent hyperprolactinemia.
Application of the Vitex agnus-castus in latent hyperprolactinemia suggested that the herbal medicine is superior compared to placebo for reducing TRH-stimulated prolactin secretion, normalizing a shortened luteal phase, increasing mid-luteal progesterone and 17β-oestradiol levels.
And Vitex comparable to bromocriptine for reducing serum prolactin levels and ameliorating cyclic mastalgia. Adverse events with Vitex were mild and generally infrequent.
These results indicated, Vitex extracts in the treatment of premenstrual syndrome, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, and latent hyperprolactinemia.
Furthermore, Dr, Milewicz A, in the finding natural medicine with no side effect in the treatment of hyperprolactinemia conducted a randomized double-blind study vs. placebo to evaluate the efficacy of a Vitex agnus castus preparation (Strotan capsules) vs. placebo.
The clinical study involved 52 women with luteal phase defects due to latent hyperprolactinemia.
The participants were given a daily dose of one capsule (20 mg) Vitex agnus castus preparation and placebo.
In the assessment of the blood for hormonal analysis taken at days 5-8 and day 20 of the menstrual cycle before and after three months of therapy.
Women who were received the Vitex agnus castus preparation showed a reduction of prolactin release after 3 months.
The shortened luteal phases of these women were normalized and deficits in the luteal progesterone synthesis were eliminated.
These changes were significant and occurred only in the Vitex group.
Side effects were not seen during the experiment and two women treated with the Vitex agnus castus preparation got pregnant.
Taken altogether, Chaste tree berry (Vitex agnus-castus) may be considered a functional herb for the prevention and an adjunct therapy combined with the primary medicine for the treatment of hyperprolactinemia

Ginger, Relieves Pain and Reduced Disability of Patients with Osteoarthritis
Ginger may have a potential and positive effect in ameliorating the symptoms of pain and complication of reduced quality of life in patients with osteoarthritis, some scientists suggested.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic condition of a type of joint disease characterized by the breaking down of joint cartilage and underlying bone due to “wear and tear” of joints over time.
Some researchers suggested that OA is a degenerative disease characterized by “low-grade inflammation” in cartilage and synovium, affecting the joint structure and progressive deterioration of cartilage.
According to the statistic from the NIH, osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder in the US. Among adults, 60 years of age or older the prevalence of symptomatic knee and sadly OA affects approximately 10% in men and 13% in women.
Epidemiological strongly suggested that obese and overweight which have a strong impact on the weight-bearing joints, genetic preposition of a patient can make such patient more susceptible to the disease compared to others do not, people with a joint injury that did heal properly in the younger age and people with occupations that require standing for long periods of time, repetitive bending, heavy lifting or other movements and the increase in age are associated to the increased risk of the onset of the disease.
The most common symptoms of osteoarthritis are joint pain and stiffness.
Dr. Giuseppe Musumeci, the lead author in the study "Osteoarthritis in the XXIst Century: Risk Factors and Behaviours that Influence Disease Onset and Progression" suggested that besides the risk factors mentioned above, dietary factors also play an important role for the onset of the disease.
In the dietary aspect in the induction of OA, the research team wrote, "This diet (The Western diet) is mainly constituted by preservative and harmful substances, such as animal fat and glucose excessive concentration and lack of nutritional factors, such as vitamins and nutrient minerals essential for our body. Moreover, the bad dietary habits may predispose people to obesity, which is responsible for both metabolic destroying processes affecting the cartilage and overload of the joints, especially hips and knees".
And, " quantity and quality of nutrient intake. Low intake of vitamin D and vitamin C is a possible risk factor for knee OA, while certain food groups, such as milk and dairy products, meat and poultry are beneficial for knee OA. Thus we could affirm that nutritional imbalance, combined with endocrine abnormalities, may be involved in the pathogenesis of OA".
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root, the second superfood used for thousands of years by mankind, is the genus Zingiber, belonging to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil.
The root has been used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.
With an aim to reaffirm the traditional use of ginger for the treatment of osteoarthritis, a joint review led by the Copenhagen University Hospital, Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg was conducted to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of oral ginger for the symptomatic treatment of osteoarthritis (OA).
The study was carried out by searching the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing oral ginger treatment with placebo in OA patients aged >18 years satisfied the predetermined guidelines and criteria, including the outcomes of the reduction in pain and disability.
Out of 122 retrieved references, 117 were discarded, only 5 five trials (593 patients) were selected for meta-analyses.
All 5 remained studies suggested that ginger intake scored a statistically significant pain reduction.
Furthermore, application of ginger in subjects with osteoarthritis demonstrates a statistically significant reduction in disability compared to control.
However, according to the returned questionnaires from the participants, researchers surprisingly found that patients given ginger are more than twice as likely to discontinue treatment compared to placebo.
Dr. Mozaffari-Khosravi H, the lead author, launched a joint study to determine the ginger powder effects in relieving pain and inflammation in patients with osteoarthritis.
120 participants selected for the randomized double-blind placebo-controlled 3-month clinical trial for knee osteoarthritis were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the ginger group (GG) or the placebo group (PG).
Ginger selected group was given capsules containing 500 mg of ginger powder, while the PG group was given capsules filled with 500 mg starch.
At the baseline, proinflammatory cytokine concentrations did not differ by group, observed by the participant's blood sample.
After 3 months, GG showed a significant reduction of cytokines compared to the PG.
In the final report, the research team wrote, "ginger supplementation may have promising benefits for knee osteoarthritis".
These results reconfirming the use of ginger for the treatment of osteoarthritis in traditional medicine with no side effects

Strawberries, A Potential Anti Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Prostate Cancer Functional Food
Scientists may have found a tasty whole fruit for the prevention and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostate) and prostate cancer with no side effects, according to studies.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia happened mostly in the older age population group is a condition of an enlarged prostate that can cause some serious urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder.
In many cases, an enlarged prostate can also induce bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems and prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is slow growth and a medical condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and uncontrollably in the prostate tissue.
Most cases of prostate cancer start in the cell on the surface of the inner lining of the prostate gland
At the advanced stage, the cancerous cell can travel a distance away from the prostate to infect other healthy tissue, through blood and fluid circulation.
The causes of prostate cancer are unknown. Epidemiologically, researchers do know that the increase in age, ethnicity, family history, genetic preposition of BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 and agent orange exposure are associated with an increased risk of the disease.
Some researchers suggested that a poor eating habit and lifestyle are the most common risk factors associated with the onset of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. Therefore, by changing to a healthy diet, the risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer may be preventable.
Dr. Devrim E, in the concern of the widespread of prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), over last few decades said, "garlic and its preparations have been used for the treatment of prostate cancer and relief of BPH symptoms for decades. It is thought that the mechanism(s) through which garlic may show anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects".
These results suggested adding garlic into your diet daily can decrease the incidence of both benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer with no side effects.
Strawberry is a genius of Fragaria × ananassa belongs to the family Roseaceae. They have been grown all over the world with a suitable climate for commercial profits and for health benefits.
Starting at age 40, the levels of the by-product prolactin of testosterone of men increases, stimulating the production of the enzyme 5-alpha reductase that causes the conversion of testosterone to gihydro-testosterones DHT triggering prostate enlargement and other problems. Therefore in order to prevent the symptoms of enlarged prostate is to naturally impend the conversion of testosterone to DHT. Unfortunately, aging is not the only cause of enlarged prostate. Prostate Cancer is defined as a condition of the abnormal proliferation of cells in the prostate.
The major chemical compounds include anthocyanin and ellagitannins and p-Hydroxybenzoic acid, p-coumaric acid, ellagic acid, cyanidin-3-glucoside, pelargonidin-3-glucoside, kaempferol, quercetin, and myricetin.
With an aim to find the natural compound which processes the potency to inhibit the benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a common disease of the prostate that affects men as they age, and a risk factor for developing prostate cancer with no side effects, researchers at the Monash University looked into the anti BPH activity of lycopene found abundantly in the strawberry by searching the database of medical literature.
Out many medical studies were examined, only 8 published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing lycopene to placebo (or other interventions) for the treatment of BPH and prostate cancer met the inclusion criteria were selected for this systematic review.
Meta-analysis of two studies indicated a decrease in PSA levels in men diagnosed with prostate cancer, who received lycopene compared to placebo.
In a human prostate epithelial cell line (P21) and two tumor cell lines (P21 tumor cell line 1 and 2) derived from the same patient, and a normal human breast epithelial cell line (B42) and a tumor line derived from it (B42 clone 16), researchers examined the cytotoxic effects of strawberry polyphenols.
By applying the polyphenol-rich extract derived from strawberry or anthocyanin or tannin-rich sub-fractions to the cell lines in doses varying from 50 to 1.5 microg/ml, researchers discovered the strawberry extract inhibited over 50% in cell survival of both the normal and the tumor lines with the doses of approximately 5 microg/ml.
The extracts were found to exert cytotoxicity to peripheral blood human lymphocytes with the doses higher levels 20 microg/ml for the similar effect of 50% reduction in cell survival.
Compound analysis assay suggested that the cytotoxicity was retained in the tannin-rich fraction was considerably more toxic to all cells (normal or tumor cell lines or lymphocytes) than the anthocyanin-rich fraction the tannin-rich fraction.
Furthermore, In LNCaP and PC-3) tumor cell lines, strawberry extract with concentrations of 50 microg/ml was required for 50% reduction in cell survival.
The finding suggested that strawberry processed high amounts of bioactive compounds may be considered a functional food for the prevention and treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer without inducing any side effects

Benign prostatic hyperplasia happened mostly in the older age population group is a condition of an enlarged prostate that can cause some serious urinary symptoms, such as blocking the flow of urine out of the bladder.
In many cases, an enlarged prostate can also induce bladder, urinary tract or kidney problems and prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is slow growth and a medical condition characterized by cell growth disorderly and uncontrollably in the prostate tissue.
Most cases of prostate cancer start in the cell on the surface of the inner lining of the prostate gland
At the advanced stage, the cancerous cell can travel a distance away from the prostate to infect other healthy tissue, through blood and fluid circulation.
The causes of prostate cancer are unknown. Epidemiologically, researchers do know that the increase in age, ethnicity, family history, genetic preposition of BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 and agent orange exposure are associated with an increased risk of the disease.
Some researchers suggested that a poor eating habit and lifestyle are the most common risk factors associated with the onset of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. Therefore, by changing to a healthy diet, the risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer may be preventable.
