Artichoke may have a positive and profound effect in reducing risk and treatment of leukemia with no side effects, according to studies.
Leukemia is a medical condition arisen from the abnormal white blood cells produced by the bone marrow.
There are several forms of leukemia, including acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
CLL and AML are the most common cancers in adults and ALL are most common in children.
Contrast to chronic leukemias that take months or years to develop, acute leukemias start and develop within days or weeks.
According to Leukemia Research, Leukemia causes the death of approximately 68,000 every year. Adults are 10 times more likely to develop the disease, compared to children.
And, Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is the 7th most common cancer in the U.S. The 5-year survival rate for all subtypes of leukemia is 61.4 percent.
Certain types of blood disorder, exposure to radioactive substances, and certain medication are some of the prevalent risks of cancer.
Some researchers suggested that cigarette smoking may contribute to the large part of AML onset compared to other subtypes.
Dr. Fircanis S in the study of "The relation between cigarette smoking and risk of acute myeloid leukemia: an updated meta-analysis of epidemiological studies" wrote in the final report, "current and ever smokers have 40% (RR 1.40, 95% CI 1.22-1.60; P < 0.001) and 25% (RR 1.25, 95% CI 1.15-1.36; P < 0.001) increased risk of developing AML when compared with non-smokers".
And, "Intensity of smoking of <10, 10-20, 20-30, and >30 cigarettes per day was associated with RRs of AML of 1.27, 1.36, 1.55, and 1.77, respectively (P < 0.001 for trend). Duration of smoking of <20 and >20 years was associated with RRs of 1.07 and 1.44, respectively (P < 0.001 for trend). Cumulative smoking of <10, 10-20, 20-30, and >30 pack-years was associated with RRs of 1.13, 1.23, 1.39, and 1.71, respectively (P < 0.001 for trend)".
The results strongly suggested that cigarette smoking is a major risk factor of acute myeloid leukemia and the risk of AML is increased depending on how many cigarettes that a person smokes a day.
Artichoke is a perennial thistle of Cynara cardunculus species of the Cynara genus, belonging to the family Carduoideae native to Southern Europe around the Mediterranean.
The herbal plant has been used in traditional medicine as a liver protective and detoxified agent, and to treat digestive disorders, abdominal pain gas and bloating, etc.
Researchers on finding a natural whole food for the treatment of leukemia against the overexpression of proinflammatory cytokines investigated the extract and 3 participating compounds of artichoke leaves (bracts on the human leukemia cell line.
Injection of the artichoke extract and compounds showed to modulate the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of proinflammatory protein (NF-κB) and the intracellular proinflammatory reactive oxygen species.
Low concentrations of the extract inhibited the enzyme AKR1B1 associated with the activation of NF-κB and the expression of pro-inflammatory genes.
The efficacy of the extract in the attenuation of the expression of the inflammation-related enzymes COX-2 and MMP-2 was attributed to the inhibiting activity of NF-κB.
In other words, artichoke reduced the production of inflammatory cytokines by inhibiting the levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species in activation of the protein NF-κB.
By suppressing the enzyme AKR1B1, artichoke reduced the inflammatory expression in facilitating the onset of leukemia.
Furthermore, in order to reveal more information about artichoke extract (CCE) against leukemia researchers evaluated the CCE effect on the growth of L1210 and HL-60 leukemia cells.
Injection with a variety of concentrations of CCE (500-2500 microg/microL) for 24 h resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of leukemia cell growth observed by the cell cycle arrest in S phase.
CCE also induced apoptosis of leukemia cells, detected by the sub-G(0) cell population and apoptotic DNA fragmentation.
The findings suggested that CCE inhibits leukemia cells through several mechanisms including the proteins associated with cell cycle division, inflammation, and cell degradation.
Taken altogether, artichoke may be considered a functional remedy for the prevention and treatment of leukemia, pending to the result of larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Tualang Honey the Best to Boosts Memory
Honey may have a profound and positive effect in boosting human memory, some scientists suggested
Memory is a process of the minds in learning and storing information.
Memory impairment is a condition of not remembering the new and current event which may be recalled in a short period of time, affecting mostly the older population.
Memory impairment is early symptoms associated with late-life neurodegenerative diseases.
Contrast to general belief, memory impairment not only is associated with the progression of neurodegenerative diseases but also can be caused by other factors such as medical conditions including stroke and brain injury.
Long-term use of certain medications such as antidepressants, antihistamines, anti-anxiety medications, excessive alcohol drinking, substance abuse, and tobacco are some major risk factors associated with the onset of memory loss.
Some researchers suggested that people who are living under long-term stress and anxiety or follow a nutritionally deficient diet are most vulnerable to the condition develops.
According to the article "Stress might lead to memory loss and brain shrinkage, study says" By Sandee LaMotte, CNN wrote, "If you live a high-stress life, you could have memory loss and brain shrinkage before you turn 50, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Neurology".
"Higher levels of cortisol, a stress hormone, seem to predict brain function, brain size and performance on cognitive tests," said study author Dr. Sudha Seshadri, professor of neurology at UT Health San Antonio.
"We found memory loss and brain shrinkage in relatively young people long before any symptoms could be seen," Seshadri said. "It's never too early to be mindful of reducing stress."
In other words, long-term stress can induce the production of certain hormones such as cortisol which have strong implications on the brain in the induction of memory loss.
Honey is the miraculous product made by bees using nectar from flowers.
The rich golden liquid It is considered one of healthy sweet food for replacing the use of white sugar and artificial sweetener by many people.
On finding the correlation and association with the aging and stress exposure and memory impairment, researchers examined the potential protective effects of Tualang honey supplementation on memory performance in aged rats exposed to noise stress.
Tested rats were given orally, 200 mg/kg body weight of Tualang honey supplementation for 28 days, before exposing to the loud noise, 100 dB(A), 4 hours daily for 14 days.
Rats subjected to noise stress exhibited significantly lower memory performance and higher oxidative stress, through the increased expression of oxidative stress markers, the elevated malondialdehyde, and protein carbonyl levels.
The stress rats also exhibited a reduction of the levels of antioxidant enzymes compared to the nonstressed rats.
Tualang honey supplementation applied to the stress rats showed a significant improvement of the memory performance, by decreasing oxidative stress levels and increasing the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) concentration, which was reduced due to stress.
Furthermore, Tualang honey also normalized the ratio of free radicals and antioxidants in the stress rats body and enhanced neuronal proliferation in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and hippocampus associated to the memory, particularly, in long-term memory.
Dr. Azman KF, the lead scientist at the final report wrote, "Tualang honey protects against memory decline due to stress exposure and/or aging via enhancement of mPFC and hippocampal morphology possibly secondary to a reduction in brain oxidative stress and/or upregulation of BDNF concentration and cholinergic system".
The results underlined the effects of Tualang honey effect in boosting the short and long-term memory which was significantly reduced by stress exposure and/or aging.
Moreover, in the study of the total of forty-eight adult male rats randomly divided into the following four groups: i) nonstressed with vehicle, ii) nonstressed with Tualang honey, iii) stressed with vehicle, and iv) stressed with honey with supplement was given once daily via oral gavage at 0.2 g/kg body weight, researchers found that
* The rats subjected to noise stress was found to process higher levels of depressive-like behavior and lower memory functions compared to the unexposed control rats.
* Tuatang honey supplementation regimen successfully counteracted the effects of noise stress.
* Tualng honey also increased the climbing and swimming and mobility times significantly.
These results suggested that Tualang honey normalizes the cognitive function of the rats exposed to the noise stress, similar to those of the first study.
Taken altogether, Tualang honey may be considered a functional food for the prevention and combined with the primary therapy for the treatment of cognitive impairment, pending to the larger and multi center's human study.

Phytochemical Phytic acid, the Potential Anti Diabetes Bioactive Compound, Scientists Find
Scientists may have found a natural resource for the prevention and treatment of diabetes with no side effects, according to the studies.
Diabetes is a medical and chronic condition caused by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream to regulate the glucose.
The diabetes is either caused by cells in pancreas died off due to the immune system mistakenly attacked the sell in the pancreas or receptor sites clogged up as a result of the excess fat and cholesterol in the bloodstream.
Researchers do not know why the immune system attacks its own tissue. Either they can explain people follow a lifelong intake of the Western diet, only some are susceptible to the onset of the disease, while others do not.
There are many risk factors such as age, ethnicity, family history, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, being an overweight or obese and sedentary lifestyle. associated with the onset of the condition, epidemiologically. However, many people with some of the risk factors have never developed diabetes.
Some researchers suggested that unhealthy diet with high amounts of saturated and trans fat, red meat and processed foods and low amounts of fruits and vegetable as that of the Western diet is the most common risk factor of diabetes in the Western world.
Dr. David Hefner, in the concern of the Western diet in risk of diabetes, wrote, "The typical Western diet-red meat, high-fat dairy products, refined grains and desserts-may increase your chances for Type 2 diabetes".
And, "The news isn't particularly shocking but offers a new view on the health risks of a typical Western diet as a whole, rather than simply attacking elements within the diet such as fatty foods".
The results strongly suggested the risk of diabetes can be decreased with the change of diet pattern, from the Western diet to a healthy diet with high amounts of fruits and vegetables.
If you experience some of the belove symptoms such as increased thirst that can not be resolved by intake of liquid, frequent urination, extreme hunger, and unexplained weight loss, you may have type 2 diabetes. Please make sure you check with your doctor to rule out the possibility.
Phytic acid (Inositol hexaphosphate) are phytochemicals of the organic acid found abundantly in nuts, sesame seeds, soybeans, wheat, pumpkin, beans, almonds, etc.
On finding a natural bioactive compound for the treatment of diabetes with no side effects, researchers examined the effect of the phytic acid supplement on streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
Diabetic rats were fed rodent chow with or without phytic acid supplementation for thirty days. According to the assay used for the experiment, phytic acid supplement treated group showed an increase in average food intake and a decrease in body weight gain compared to the diabetic and normal control groups.
Compared to other groups, phytic acid supplement treated group also exerted a downtrend in intestinal amylase activity. The spike in random blood glucose in the treatment group also lower compared to others.
Furthermore, the treatment group also displays reduced serum triglycerides and increased total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol levels and levels of serum alkaline phosphatase and alanine aminotransferase activities, the indication of improvement of insulin sensitivity.
Moreover, levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines also lower in phytic acid supplement treated group compared to other groups.
Dr.Omoruyi FO, the lead scientist at the end of the study, wrote, "phytic acid supplementation may be beneficial in the management of diabetes mellitus".
Additionally, researchers randomly assigned six groups of rats fed to test the anti-diabetes of phytic acid, for 3 weeks as follows:
* Groups 1 and 2 were fed formulated diets supplemented with zinc or without zinc respectively.
* Groups 3 and 4 were fed formulated diets supplemented with zinc plus phytic acid extracted from sweet potato (Ipomea batatas) or commercial phytic acid respectively.
* Groups 5 and 6 were fed formulated diets supplemented with a phytic acid extract from sweet potato or commercial phytic acid respectively.
At the final day of the experiment, researchers found that phytic acid extract consumption from sweet potato and commercial phytic acid plus zinc supplement lowered blood glucose levels.
However, phytic acid supplementation showed no significant decrease in the activity of pyruvate kinase involved in the insulin stimulation of this enzyme activity, compared to the group fed formulated diets.
Groups fed phytic extract from sweet potato also exerted a significant increase in the activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in the promotion of pancreatic beta-cell function, compared to the other groups.
Taken altogether, phytochemical phytic acid may be used for the prevention and combined with the primary medicine for the treatment and management of type 2 diabetes.

Phytochemical Piperine, the Potent Immune System Enhancer, According to Studies
Scientists may have found an alkaloid in black pepper for the enhancement of the immune function with no side effects, according to studies.
The immune system is the set of cells and their activity against antigens or infectious agents that comprises the body's defense system against diseases.
Through the expression of the lines of defense, depending on the stage of pathogenic invasion, the innate immune response protects the body via a different set of interaction.
In the acute phase of infection, the macrophages in the immune system stimulate the production of inflammatory cytokines to the site of the damage. The inflammatory cytokines not only play a critical role in stopping the stimuli from entering into the body but also speeds up the wound healing through growth factors.
The innate immune system also can destroy the damage cells such as cancer cell through the T cell activation of B cells which in turn stimulates the production of a protein associated with the production of antibody p53.
Some researchers suggested immune system also can kill cancer cells by reacting to activating cytokines (IFN-α/β, IL-12, IL-15, IL-18, IL-21) produced by tumor cells or by other immune cells stimulated by tumor cells.
Therefore, by modulating the immune responses to the needs of the body, the immune can keep us strong and diseases free.
Dr. Assaf Marcus and colleagues in the investigation of the study "Recognition of tumors by the innate immune system and natural killer cells" wrote, " First, cell-intrinsic mechanisms, like any other mechanism, are prone to failure, necessitating the existence of redundant systems. A second, unique, benefit of immune mechanisms of tumor suppression is that they can act in a paracrine manner. Secretion of cytokines such as IFN-γ, for example, can suppress the growth of neighboring tumor cells even if they do not upregulate immune-activating ligands".
And, "Secretion of cytokines such as IFN-γ, for example, can suppress the growth of neighboring tumor cells".
These results clearly suggested by keeping your immune system strong, you can be free for infectious diseases and cancers.
Piperine is a phytochemical alkaloid in the class of organosulfur compound, found abundantly in white and black pepper, long pepper, etc.
With an aim to find a natural bioactive compound which processes the immune enhancing effect researchers assessed the production of antibody response against Russell's viper venom in mice after prophylactic immunization with ethanolic extract of fruits of Piper longum L. and piperine, compared to that of the Polyvalent anti-snake venom serum (antivenom)(PLE) manufactured by Haffkine Bio-Pharmaceutical Corporation Ltd.
According to the results from the tested assay, treatment with PLE-treated mice serum and piperine-treated mice serum was found to inhibit the lethal action of venom both in the in vitro.
Futhermore, there were significantly high (p<0.01) levels of cross-reactions between the PLE and piperine treated mice serum and the venom antigens.
However, immunization with ethanolic extract of fruits of Piper longum and piperine produced a high titer antibody response against Russell's viper venom in mice, compared to PLE.
These results suggested that piperine stimulated the immune function in producing antigens against the lethal action of venom may be considered a potential for the development of antivenom formulation as an antidote against snake bites.
In embryonated fertile chicken eggs, researchers found that PLE was found to inhibit the venom-induced hemorrhage in the eggs.
Combined administration of PLE and piperine significantly inhibited venom-induced lethality, hemorrhage, necrosis, defibrinogenation and inflammatory paw edema in mice in a dose-dependent manner.
LE and piperine also significantly (p<0.01) reduced venom-induced mast cell degranulation in rats by improving the immune responses to inflammatory and allergic reactions.
Before treatment, the injection of venom in mice showed reduced levels of catalase enzyme levels in mice kidney tissue and an increase in creatine kinase enzyme levels, the indication of inflammation.
Combined administration of both PLE and piperine also restored the antioxidant enzymes which were suppressed by the injection of venom in mice
These findings suggested that piperine not only protects our body against venom-induced hemorrhage, necrosis, defibrinogenation but also inhibited an overreaction of the immune response in the stimulation of inflammation.
Moreover, piperine is effective compared to those of antivenom medicine.
Taken altogether, Piperine may be considered a bioactive compound for the treatment of venom caused by insect and poison animal bites, pending to the confirmation of large sample size and multicenter human study.

Bilberry May Process Anti Breast Cancer Potency with No Side Effects, According to Medical Literature
Bilberry may be the next potential and therapeutic treatment of breast cancer with no side effects, according to studies.
Breast cancer is the chronic condition characterized by irregular cells growth in the breast tissue caused by the alternation of DNA.
The causes of breast cancer are unknown, As of today, researchers cannot explain why people with the same health conditions in the same family, some are susceptible to the onset of breast cancer while others do not.
According to the statistics, 1 in 8 U.S. women, representing 12.4 % of all women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime.
Believe or not, In 2018, approximately 266,120 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed in women in the U.S.
The 5 years survival rate of breast cancer diagnosis at the early stage is 100%. Therefore, women at a higher risk of breast cancer should examine their breast at least once a month for preventive measure.
Most cases of breast cancer begin in the cells on the surface of the inner lining of milk ducts (Ductal carcinoma) or the lobules (Lobular carcinoma) that supply the ducts with milk.
Women with breast cancer may experience symptoms of lump, swelling of all or part of a breast, skin irritation or dimpling, breast or nipple pain, nipple retraction, redness, and scaliness.
If you experience some of the above symptoms, please make sure to check with your doctor as soon as possible to rule out the possibility of breast cancer.
In North America, some researchers suggested that obesity may have some strong impact on the risk of breast cancer onset.
Dr. Manuel Picon‐Ruiz, the lead scientist in the study of "Obesity and adverse breast cancer risk and outcome: Mechanistic insights and strategies for intervention", wrote "Obesity is associated both with a higher risk of developing breast cancer, particularly in postmenopausal women, and with worse disease outcome for women of all ages".
And, " the effects of obesity to increase local and circulating proinflammatory cytokines, promote tumor angiogenesis and stimulate the most malignant cancer stem cell population to drive cancer growth, invasion, and metastasis".
The results clearly suggested that if you are obese, your risk of breast cancer is increased substantially, compared to non-obese individuals.
Bilberry is a species of low-growing shrubs in the genus Vaccinium, belonging to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern Europe.
The herbal plant has been used as foods and herbs in traditional medicine for the treatment of acute and chronic diarrhea, gastritis, gastric ulcer, and duodenal ulcer, enterocolitis, ulcerative colitis, anemia, cystitis, kidney disease, and psoriasis, diabetes, etc.
Researchers on finding a natural compound for the treatment of breast cancer examined the bilberry effect on the MCF7 human breast cancer cells.
Bilberry extract inhibited cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent fashion with a 50% inhibitory concentration of 0.3-0.4 mg/mL.
At this concentration, the natural compound also concerts the induction of apoptotic cell death of the cancer cells with no apparent effect on the microtubule that provides structure and shape to the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells or actin cytoskeletons.
In other words, bilberry extract induced cancer cell apoptosis was not through cell cycle arrest at this concentration.
However, at the higher extract concentrations (0.5-0.9 mg/mL), the extract did cause an increase in the fraction of cells at the G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle.
Further differentiation of the cell death, bilberry extract at 0.3-0.4 mg/mL did not appreciably inhibit microtubule polymerization in vitro, but significant inhibition of polymerization (approximately 30%) did occur at higher extract concentrations (0.5-1 mg/mL).
Moreover, researchers found that the efficacy of bilberry against breast cancer cell was attributed not by the expression of anthocyanins but all phytochemicals in the extracts.
Dr. Nguyen V and colleagues wrote in the final report, " (Bilberry extract) inhibits proliferation of and induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells at its lowest effective concentrations via a mechanism that does not involve action on microtubules or on mitosis.
And, "At somewhat higher concentrations the extract modifies microtubule organization in cells and causes accumulation of cells at mitosis by a direct action on microtubules".
Taken altogether, bilberry may be considered a functional remedy for the prevention and treatment of breast cancer, pending to the confirmation of larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Artichoke Protects Us Against Heart Disease, According to Studies
Artichoke may be used as a natural and herbal remedy for the treatment of heart disease with no side effects, according to studies.
Heart disease is a class of diseases associated with interruption of blood flow in the blood vessel or damage of the heart tissue, including coronary artery diseases (CAD) such as angina and myocardial infarction.
According to the statistics, heart disease is a leading cause of death in the US. Approximately 2000 people in the general population die of heart disease every day.
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common type of heart disease, that kills over 370,000 people annually.
Most common risk factors associated with heart disease are aging, family history with heart disease, metabolic syndrome, high blood pressure and cholesterol, obesity, smoking, and stress epidemiologically.
However, most people with some of the above risk factors have never developed heart disease. Symptoms of heart disease completely depend on the infected location.
Some researchers suggested that by making a change in lifestyle accompanied by moderate physical activity such as walking, the risk of heart disease can be prevented.
The American College of Cardiology wrote in the article of Heart Disease: Lifestyle Changes to Lower Risk. "Start slowly, and go at a pace you can manage. Try to do at least 2½ hours of moderate exercise a week. One way to do this is to be active 30 minutes a day, at least 5 days a week".
"Healthy eating starts with learning new ways to eat, such as adding more fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and cutting back on foods that have a lot of saturated fat, sodium, and sugar"
"Getting active and eating a healthy diet can help you lose extra weight and quit smoking"
Finally, the article continued, "Even though you are taking medicine, it is always important to make lifestyle changes that keep your heart and your body healthy".
Artichoke is a perennial thistle of Cynara cardunculus species of the Cynara genus, belonging to the family Carduoideae, native to Southern Europe around the Mediterranean.
The herbal plant has been used in traditional medicine as a liver protective and detoxified agent, and for the treatment of digestive disorders, abdominal pain gas and bloating, etc.
Finding a natural ingredient for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases has been a dream of many scientists. Researchers at the joint study led by the IRCCS San Raffaele Pisana, examined the effects of vegetables, including artichoke on CVD.
The joint study included a total of 38 subjects at risk of CVD. After, a week of the run-in period, participants were randomly assigned to one of the following 4-week interventions: low vegetable consumption (800 g of vegetables/week) or high vegetable consumption (4200 g of vegetables/week).
According to the assays that record immunological, and antioxidant markers, leukocyte and lymphocyte expression of the gut-homing β7 integrin, there were no significant changes detected in clinical, immunological, and antioxidant markers in biological samples, except for an increase in white blood cell count for the low vegetable consumption group.
Immune system's innate and adaptive immune responses play an essential role in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory expression.
Vegetable consumption group exerts a CVD protective effect in modulating markers of immune function and antioxidant status in patients with CVD. In healthy individuals, intake of vegetables does not induce a change of both antioxidant and inflammatory markers associated with immune function, particularly in nonsmoking men.
These results strongly suggested that vegetables modulate the function of the immune system according to the needs of the body.
In other to reveal more information about artichoke anti CVD activity, Dr. Rondanelli M and colleagues at the University of Pavia investigated the artichoke extracts on the cardiovascular disease on both animals and man.
Injection of artichoke not only reduced the levels of cholesterol in the bloodstream through its hypolipidemic activity but also inhibited the expression of high blood glucose and free radicals through the antioxidant and hypoglycemic activity.
The results indicated artichoke reduced the risk and progression of cardiovascular disease by improving the production of antioxidant enzymes against oxidative stress in the initiation of low-grade inflammation, a hallmark of CVD.
Futhermore, artichoke also decreases the levels of blood cholesterol and glucose, the cluster conditions associated with the risk CVD, epidemiologically.
Taken altogether, artichoke which processes anti cardiovascular diseases activity through several mechanisms may be considered a functional remedy for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, pending to the confirmation of large sample size and multicenter human study.

Localized Honey, the Best for the Treatment of Allergies with No Side Effects, According to Studies
Scientists may have found a natural alternative for the treatment of allergies, according to studies.
Allergies are a faulty reaction of the immune systematic responses against harmful substances that enter the body.
Symptoms and diseases associated with allergy include sinus swelling, seasonal and returning allergies, hay fever and nasal allergies.
Believe or not, Penicillin, antibiotic medicine is the most common allergy trigger in drug allergies. 10 percent of people are allergic after using the medicine.
According to the statistics, in the US, approximately, more than 50 million Americans have experienced various types of allergies each year and 15 million Americans have food allergies, including 5.9 million children under age 18.
In other words, 1 in 13 children suffers from a food allergy. About 30 percent of children with food allergies are allergic to more than one food.
The findings strongly suggested that foods are the most common and major cause of the allergic onset.
Dr. Ruchi S. Gupta and colleagues in the allergic team in examining the food allergies in children wrote, "Overall, estimated current FA prevalence was 7.6%,.The most prevalent allergens were peanut (2.2%), milk (1.9%), shellfish (1.3%), and tree nut (1.2%)".
And, "Among food-allergic children, 42.3% reported ≥1 severe FA and 39.9% reported multiple FA. Furthermore, 19.0% reported ≥1 FA-related emergency department visit in the previous year and 42.0% reported ≥1-lifetime FA-related emergency department visit, whereas 40.7% had a current epinephrine autoinjector prescription.
Honey is the miraculous product made by bees using nectar from flowers.
The rich golden liquid is considered one of healthy sweet food for replacing the use of white sugar and artificial sweetener by many people.
Researchers on finding a natural compound for the treatment of allergies examined the honey effects in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR).
The prospective randomized placebo-controlled study included 40 AR patients divided equally into a case group and a control group. All the subjects received a daily dose of 10 mg of loratadine for 4 weeks.
The case group then ingested 1 g/kg body weight of honey daily in separate doses for the 4-week period. The control group ingested the same dose of honey-flavored corn syrup as a placebo.
According to the AR symptoms scored at the start, week 4, and week 8 of the study, at week 4, both groups showed progressive improvement in the symptoms, however, at week 8, only the case group showed continuous improvement in the symptom score.
The ingested honey group showed a significant improvement in individual AR symptoms after week 8 and the efficacy in reducing the symptoms persisted for a month after the cessation of the honey treatment.
The results suggested that honey processed certain chemical compounds that were not found in the corn syrup for the treatment of AR.
Some researchers suggested that long-term intake of raw honey can help to ameliorate allergy symptoms by regularly exposing to pollen, similarly to the allergy injection in desensitizing pollen-program.
If this result is true then only local honey can process the anti-AR symptoms compared to honey unlocalized pollen.
Taken altogether, honey may be considered a functional remedy for the prevention and treatment of AR symptoms, regardless of the types of honey, pending to the confirmation of large sample size and multicenter human study.
