Hepatic steatosis is a medical condition caused by the accumulation of fat in the liver.
In other words, if the intrahepatic fat of your liver is more than 5% of liver weight, you are considered to have hepatic steatosis. Over time, untreated hepatic steatosis can lead to liver metabolic dysfunction, inflammation, and advanced forms of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Epidemiologically, hepatic steatosis has been found to induce complications in patients with obesity, alcohol intoxication and/or hepatic disorders.
There are several mechanisms involved in the accumulation of intrahepatic fat, including increased flux of fatty acids to the liver, increased de novo lipogenesis, and/or reduced clearance through β-oxidation or very-low-density lipoprotein secretion.
People who are obese, having the condition of insulin resistance or diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, rapid weight loss, using hepatotoxic medications total parenteral nutrition (TPN) are at the increased risk of hepatic steatosis.
Out of many prevalent factors involved in the onset of hepatic steatosis, some researcher suggested that the promotion of the Western diet over the past few decades in the Western world may have a strong and negative impact that accelerates the incidence onset.
Dr. Michael D. Roberts, the lead scientist wrote, "Six weeks of WD feeding caused hepatic steatosis development as evidenced by the 2.25-fold increase in liver triacylglycerol content, but did not induce advanced liver disease (i.e., no overt inflammation or fibrosis)".
And, "sub-chronic WD feeding appears to increase hepatic steatosis development over a 6-week period but only induces select inflammation-related liver transcripts, mostly acute phase response genes. These findings continue to outline the early stages of NAFLD development prior to overt liver inflammation and advanced liver disease".
The results strongly suggested the risk of the Western diet on hepatic steatosis developing.
Tomato is red, edible fruit, genus Solanum, belonging to family Solanaceae, native to South America. Because of its health benefits, the tomato is grown worldwide for the commercial purpose
and often in the greenhouse.
In the urgency to discover healthy foods for the treatment of hepatic steatosis, researchers examined the effect of tomato consumption on biomarkers and gene expression related to lipid metabolism in rats with induced steatosis.
The study included 24 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats (8 weeks old) randomly assigned to (n = 6 rats/group) four experimental groups, including NA (normal diet and water), NL (normal diet and tomato juice), HA (high-fat diet and water) and HL (high-fat diet and tomato juice).
According to the tested assays, before treatment of tomato, HA group fed high-fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis confirmed by the levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, an indication of liver stress and injury.
Tomato treated group showed a significant increase of levels of lycopene and its secondary metabolites in the livers of these animals, particularly in HL than in NL group, apparently due to higher absorption (63.07 vs. 44.45%).
Furthermore, tomato treated group protected the liver by alleviating oxidative stress through reduction of isoprostanes in the urine observed by increased levels of antioxidant enzymes.
Moreover, levels of high-density lipoprotein were also increased in the HL group compared to the HA group.
Interesting, overexpression of several genes related to lipid metabolism was also found in the HL group compared to nontreatment groups.
In other words, tomato inhibited the onset and progression of hepatic steatosis.in high-fat diet mice by inhibiting liver oxidative stress and enhancing lipid metabolism.
Dr. Martín-Pozuelo G, the lead scientist wrote, "The consumption of tomato juice and tomato products reduced hallmarks of steatosis, plasmatic triglycerides, and very-low-density lipoproteins, and increased lipid metabolism by inducing an overexpression of genes involved in more efficient fatty acid oxidation".
Taken altogether, tomato may be considered a dietary supplements for the prevention and treatment of hepatic steatosis, pending to large sample size and multicenter human study.

Healthy Food Onion, the Best Natural Anti-Hyperlipidemic Food
Hyperlipidemia or high blood cholesterol is a medical condition characterized by abnormally high levels of lipids in the blood.
Cholesterol produced by the liver plays an essential role in moderate amount in orchestrating the production of steroid hormone and vitamin D, building strong cell walls and aiding the digestive system in absorbing nutrients and fluids.
There are 2 types of blood cholesterol
* The high-density lipoprotein is also known as good cholesterol processes a function to return cholesterol to the liver.
* The low-density lipoprotein is also known as "bad" cholesterol processed a function aforementioned health benefits in moderate amount.
In a healthy individual, unused cholesterol is returned to the liver. However, overexpression of "bad" cholesterol due to the consumption of a high-fat diet and reduced levels of "good" cholesterol can cause bad cholesterol remaining in the bloodstream, leading to hyperlipidemia.
The healthy ratio of total blood cholesterol ("bad"/ "good") is any numbers that are less than 4.
Patients with yperlipidemia are assymptomatic. However, over time hyperlipidemia can cause plaque accumulated on the arterial wall, that causes atherosclerosis, a leading cause of heart disease and stroke.
According to the statistics provided by the CDC, in 2015–2016, more than 12% of adults age 20 and older had total cholesterol higher than 240 mg/dL, and more than 18% had high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or “good”) cholesterol levels less than 40 mg/dL in the US.
Believe it or not, hyperlipidemia, the life-long condition is treatable. By a change of diet and daily moderate exercise, you may control the condition without medication.
The onion is a plant in the genus Allium, belonging to the family Alliaceae, a close relation of garlic. It is often called the "king of vegetables" because of its pungent taste and found in a large number of recipes and preparations spanning almost the totality of the world's cultures.
Depending on the variety, an onion can be sharp, spicy, tangy, pungent, mild or sweet.
With an aim to find a potential and natural compound for the prevention and treatment hyperlipidemia, researchers examined the antihyperlipidemic and antioxidative potentials of onion (Allium cepa L.) extract fermented with a novel Lactobacillus casei HD-010.
Onion oral administration on ApoE-deficient mice, compared to bezafibrate (10 mg/kg, bw/day) as a positive control, showed a significant reduction of the levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG), and cholesterol.
Also, compared to the positive control, onion group displayed increased levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL).
Furthermore, the levels of HMG-CoA reductase associated with the production of good cholesterol was increased by 20% in the fermented onion-treated group at 100 mg/kg.
Moreover, Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) enzyme associated with moving cholesterol esters and triglycerides between VLDL, LDL, and HDL. LowerCETP levels promote HDL formation was inhibited by injection of onion compared to the control group.
Based on the findings, researchers said, "These results suggest that fermented onion has a preventive/therapeutic effect on the hyperlipidemic disease. It might have potential to be developed as a functional food".
In order to reveal more about the information about onion anti-hyperlipidemic activity, researchers evaluated the effects of raw red onion consumption on metabolic features in overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
The randomized controlled clinical trial, included a total of 54) patients randomly allocated to the intervention group as 'high-onion' (raw red onions: 2 × 40-50 g/day if overweight and 2 × 50-60 g/day if obese) or to the control group as 'low-onion' (raw red onions: 2 × 10-15 g/day) along with limited liliaceous vegetables for 8 weeks.
According to the tested analysis, onion administration significantly decreased the levels of total cholesterol in the high-onion group compared to the low-onion group.
Particularly, levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol decreased significantly in the high-onion group, compared to the low-onion group after treatment.
However, levels of triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and lipoprotein did not differ significantly after 8-week onion treatment.
These results strongly suggested that raw red onion consumption is effective in lower cholesterol in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Taken altogether, onion may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Green Tea EGCG, A Potent Iron Chelator in Regulation of Progression of Parkinson's disease
Green tea may be considered as a functional food and iron chelator in reduced risk and progression of Parkinson's disease, some scientists suggested
Iron chelation therapy is a primary and standard treatment for patients with iron overload.
Green tea is a precious drink processes numbers of health benefit known to almost everyone in Asia and the Western world.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, causing severe depletion of glutamatergic and dopaminergic inputs in the striatum.
\
Investigation of the green tea EGCG effect in risk and progression of PD has been found to associate to many mechanisms involved numbers of aspects.
Application of metal chelation was found to ameliorate the expression of ROS in the induction of oxidative stress through a chain of reaction and precipitation of aggregation of alpha-synuclein and beta-amyloid peptides deposit in the brain, main leading causes to the onset of PD.
In iron abnormality PD subjects, oxidopamine, also known as 6-hydroxydopamine or 2,4,5-trihydroxyphenethylamine(6-OHD), a neurotoxic synthetic organic compound was found to disrupt iron metabolism, leading to overexpression of the iron induction of dyshomeostasis cause of iron toxicity and oxidative damage in dopaminergic neurons.
Green tea major polyphenol, (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate used in metal chelation, ameliorated iron-dependent free radicals located in the subcellular compartments and cellular membranes, through the effect in inhibited iron input and exhibited iron output in brain areas where it preferentially accumulates in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinsons' disease.
Further analysis of the neurotoxin 6-OHDA causes of iron unstable equilibrium, green extract GECG administration improved the function of hepcidin, a liver-derived hormone in regulated iron dyshomeostasis and gene expression of the iron metabolism through expressions of iron regulatory proteins (IRP1 and IRP2) in regulated the RNA level, between the transcription and the translation of the gene in expression of the iron homeostasis.
Indeed, In the differentiation of neurotoxin 6-OHDA induced iron dyshomeostasis has shown to increase oxidative stress in damage to neuron cells, green extract GECG effects demonstrated a significant inhibition of free radical and iron-free radical expression in the cellular membranes through the antioxidant activities and anti-inflammatory system and expression of nuclear factor-like 2(Nrf2) in stimulated production of antioxidant in protection against oxidative damage during injury and inflammation; heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) in increased production of superoxide dismutase and catalase against ROS and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) in regulated production of pro and anti-inflammatory cytokines and cytokines..
By reducing the overexpression of oxidative damage to neuron cells through regulation of iron-related factors as mentioned above, iron chelator EGCG can counteract these adverse effects and prevent the onset of PD.
Further study of the mechanism on disruption of iron metabolism by 6-OHDA in PD cell line N27, discovered that application of the iron chelator EGCG also disrupts the iron dyshomeostasis in N27 cells (dopaminergic neural cell line) induced by 6-OHDA through regulating iron transporters and regulators expression, such as DMT1 with function in mediation of the entry of dietary iron into these mucosal cells and TfR, a carrier protein for transferrin with function in import iron into the cell and regulated response to intracellular iron concentration and hepcidin, a central regulator in maintain iron homeostasis.
Dysregulation of hepcidin production results in a variety of iron disorders.
Additionally, in 6-OHDA induced neurotoxicity to cause PD, administration of green tea GECG also reduced the intracellular iron retention by decreasing the iron importers and increasing iron exporters, through regulation of the function of iron-regulated transporters, such as ferroportin.
Interestingly, there was a report suggested that the intervention of 3 cups of green tea daily for 3 months improved the antioxidant status and reduced oxidative damage in early PD patients without affecting their iron status.
The findings revealed that green tea bioactive polyphenol, (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate may be considered as an iron chelator in the regulation of PD progression.

Green Tea, a Functional Food in Attenuated Risk and Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases
Green tea bioactive Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) may have a therapeutic and profound effect in attenuated risk and treatment of autoimmune diseases, some scientists postulated.
Autoimmune diseases are class of diseases characterized by the immune system attacking its own tissues.
Green tea bioactive compound Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in the risk of autoimmune diseases was found to associate to many different mechanisms involved numbers of aspect.
In interleukin-1 receptor antagonist knockout (IL-1raKO) arthritis rodent models of human rheumatoid arthritis, intraperitoneal injection of EGCG three times per week after the first immunization showed a significant reduction of arthritis index observed by decreased damage and destruction of joint tissues.
The efficacy of green tea phytochemicals in inhibited arthritis expression was attributed to the activities in reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in accumulation of inflammatory cells into the synovium for joint destruction and oxidative stress proteins in facilitated inflammation and destruction of the joints in arthritis.
Furthermore, the extract also exhibited anti STAT3 expression in a mediated variety of genes in response to cell stimuli to induce cellular processes such as cell growth and division, cell movement, and apoptosis activated by cytokine-dependent inflammation, through phosphorylation-Stat3 Antibody (y705) and (S727)in shortening the duration of STAT3 activity.
Interestingly, additional analysis also found that application of green tea bioactive compound lowers the mediation effect of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) function in limited production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) in the regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) function in the activated pro-inflammatory expression in innate immunity.
Moreover, injection of EGCG also exhibited anti-osteoclastic activity observed by reduced osteoclast markers in EGCG-treated IL-1RaKO mice.
In mice induced Sjögren's syndrome with pathogenic effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the salivary glands, administration of green tea Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), was found to reduce overexpression of ROS in precipitated oxidative stress-induced DNA damage and apoptosis in MRL-Fas(lpr) mice with autoimmune sialadenitis through Heme oxygenase(HO)-1 in response to pro antioxidant expression and Bcl-2 with function to induce cell survival.
Additionally, in the investigation of the ameliorated effects of green tea in the risk of autoimmune sialadenitis in a murine model, application of the green tea extract chemical compound decreased the severity of sialadenitis substantially through reduced expressions of Thymine glycol (5,6-dihydroxy-5,6-dihydrothymine) with function in induced DNA damage by oxidation and ionizing radiation andgp91phox subunit of NADPH oxidase in the production of ROS to react to the acute phase of infection.
Further differentiation indicated that the chemical constituents also ameliorated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) function in DNA duplication in both viruses and organisms and cleaved caspase 3 activity in the mediation of programmed cell death and TP53 or tumor protein in regulated apoptosis mediated by expression of BAX.
More profoundly, in the examine duct epithelial cells of salivary glands, EGCG-treated mice showed decreased levels of SS-A/Ro, an extractable nuclear antigen (ENA) and Sjögren syndrome antigen B or Lupus La protein (SSB/La) associated with autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjögren's syndrome (SS).
Finally, green tea EGCG-treated mice also showed a lower Ifi202b interferon activated gene 202B expression in implicated the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Ifi202 overexpression in the kidney and immune organs, an indication of significantly increased disease progression in autoimmune glomerulonephritis, according to publication of Gene ID: 26388, updated on 5-Nov-2017.
Taken together, green tea processed abundantly bioactive phytochemicals may be considered as a functional food in reduced risk and treatment of autoimmune diseases. Intake of green tea extract should be taken with care as overdose-toxicity has been reported in numbers of incidence.

Phytochemical Alliin Protects the Liver Cell Integrity and Viability Against Liver Cancer
The liver is the largest detoxed internal organ with a function to filter out blood coming from the intestines before passing them to other parts of the body,
Additionally, the liver also produces cholesterol to aid digestion, production of steroid hormones, vitamin D and building strong cell membranes.
Liver cancer is a chronic condition caused by irregular cell growth due to the alternation of liver cell DNA.
Compared to normal liver cells growth which is stopped after a certain stage of division, liver cancer cells can grow indefinitely to form a tumor, leading to reduced function of the liver.
According to the statistics provided by the American Cancer Society, in 2019, about 42,030 new cases (29,480 in men and 12,550 in women) will be diagnosed.
Primary liver cancer and intrahepatic bile duct cancer also cause the death of 31,780 people (21,600 men and 10,180 women) in 2019.
In the Western world, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD), a spectrum of hepatic disorders induced by obesity and metabolic syndrome, is a recognized risk factor for liver cancer.
Dr. György Baffy at the Harvard Medical School wrote, "Hepatocellular cancer (HCC) is the fifth most prevalent cancer worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a spectrum of hepatic disorders associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome, is a recognized risk factor for HCC".
And, "NAFLD that is advanced to cirrhosis carries the highest risk for HCC, but there is an increasing concern that NAFLD-associated HCC may also occur in the non-cirrhotic liver".
Alliin (S-allyl-L-cysteine-S-oxide) is a phytochemical compound sulfoxide,. a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, belonging to the class of sulfur compounds, found abundantly in fresh garlic and onion.
With an aim to find a potential compound for the treatment of liver cancer, researchers examined the bioactive compound alliin isolated from garlic in an animal model, against liver cell DNA damage.
The study included rats induced liver cancer by N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) were treated by administration of garlic powders for 2 weeks (5% of the diet).
According to the liver comet assay, injection of different garlic powders demonstrated a significant liver protective effect by a 35-60% reduction in DNA damage induced by N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in rat liver.
Additional injection of alliin content of the garlic powder showed a strongly proportional decrease in NDMA induced DNA alteration.
Three garlic powders with or without alliin also protected the liver cell against DNA damage induced by aflatoxin B1 in the liver.
However, these decreases were not correlated to the allicin content of the garlic powders.
In other words, additional alliin increased the garlic powder function in the inhibition of liver cancer initiation caused by NDMA while alliin found in the garlic must work with other compounds synergically to induce the same effects.
Taken altogether, alliin may be considered supplements for the prevention and treatment of liver cancer, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of alliin in the form of supplement should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

Green Tea and Green Tea Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) In Protection and Treatment of Retinal Degenerative Disease
Green tea phenolic content may have a sustainable and therapeutic effect in reduced risk and progression of retinal degeneration, some scientists suggested.
Retinal degeneration is a macular disease characterized by impaired vision, night blindness, retinal detachment, light sensitivity, tunnel vision, and loss of peripheral vision to total loss of vision.
The evaluation of green tea effect in risk of retinal degeneration was found to be implicated by several mechanisms through numbers of aspects.
In ROS implication of oxidative stress-induced degeneration of the retina occurred in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and glaucoma, application of green tea polyphenols epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) exhibited antioxidant effect as free radical scavenger in ameliorated chain reaction of ROS in causing loss of neuron with direct effects of retinal function and reduced cytotoxicity of free radicals in induction of retinal cellular apoptosis.
Administration of green tea phenolic compound exerted 10 times more effective in the treatment of retinal degeneration, in compared to potent medicine Trolox (vitamin E analog) in attenuating lipid peroxidation caused by the nitric oxide donor, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), according to the study.
Particularly, green tea epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) inhibited a significant decrease in photoreceptor-specific markers (RET-P1, rhodopsin kinase) which may be an indication of photoreceptor cells in the transition to degenerate prematurely, eventually resulting in blindness and an increase in the cell death marker caspase-3 caused by oxidative stress induced by injection of sodium nitroprusside (SNP)
According to the observation by Western blotting techniques, SNP was completely inhibited by EGCG injection in ameliorated the detrimental effects to the retina caused by SNP.
Dr. Zhang B, the co-author said, "Since oxidative stress has been implicated in retinal diseases like AMD and glaucoma this study provides "proof of principle" for the idea that daily intake of EGCG may help individuals suffering from retinal diseases where oxidative stress is implicated".
More interestingly, in BALB/cJ mice treated with either EGCG or saline via intraperitoneal (IP) injection, and then placed under constant cool white light-emitting diode (LED) light (10,000 lux) for 5 h, EGCG treatment group showed a strong protective effect on the retina against light damage (LD) in compared to the control group.
According to the optical coherence tomography (OCT) and electroretinography (ERG), in the examine the retinal structure and function after LD indicated that application of green tea EGCG improved significantly higher ERG amplitudes for all three wave types through inducing morphologic protection of photoreceptors also in compared to control.
Moreover, the green tea extract bio-compound also decreased oxidative stress through increase the mRNA level of the antioxidant expression of Sod2, a manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) before LD and 24 h after LD.
Dr. Qi S1,, the lead author said, "The IP injection of EGCG attenuated the detrimental effects of bright light on the retinas of BALB/cJ mice by protecting the structure and function of the retina".
Importantly, in study to evaluate green tea EGCG effect in reduced glutamate induced excitotoxicity in the retina, researchers conducted a study of female Wistar rats (n = 171) randomly signed into a normal control group (n = 9); saline control group with intravitreal saline injections (n = 54); NMDA control group with an intravitreal NMDA injection and intraperitoneal saline injections (n = 54); and NMDA study group (n = 54) receiving an intravitreal NMDA injection plus intraperitoneal EGCG (25 mg/kg) injections, observation of the groups at 2 weeks after additional injection of NMDA showed that group with treatment of intraperitoneal application of EGCG reduced a significantly less marked NMDA-associated loss of retinal ganglion cell, through inhibition of decreasing retinal ganglion cell layer (GCL), neurons located near the inner surface (the ganglion cell layer) of the retina of the eye in received visual information from photoreceptors via cell density and thickness of Thy-1 immunoreactivity in several areas of the immature and adult human brain in expression of retinal ganglion cell damage.
Taken together, there is no doubt that Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a major polyphenol of green tea, may be considered as a secondary therapeutic treatment used a combination with standard therapy for protection and treatment of retinal degenerative disease

Herbal Bilberry, the Natural Remedy that Prevents and Slows Progression of Parkinson's disease (PD)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic and medical condition that affects the nerve cells associated with the production of dopamine in the brain, leading to muscle rigidity, tremors, and changes in speech and gait.
In other words, Parkinson's disease is a progressive central nervous system disorder that affects neurons in transmitting messages in controlling the movement.
Some patients in the very early stage of PD may not experience any symptoms. However, Parkinson's disease symptoms gradually worsen as the condition progresses.
Researchers do not know why the neurons in the brain in some people are susceptible to gradually break down or die while others do not even they have similar health conditions and from the same family.
However, they do know, according to the epidemiological study, aging, gender, long-term exposure to certain toxic chemicals and genetic deposition are some of the risk factors found in patients with PD.
Please note that most people process some of the conditions have never developed Parkinson's disease.
Some researchers in the examination of the dietary habits in different parts of the world suggested that people who drink caffeine found in coffee, tea and cola are less likely to get Parkinson's disease compared to those who don't.
Dr. Prediger RD at the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina wrote, "Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder affecting approximately 1% of the population older than 60 years".
And, "The available data also suggest that caffeine can improve the motor deficits of PD and that adenosine A2A receptor antagonists such as istradefylline reduces OFF time and dyskinesia associated with standard 'dopamine replacement' treatments".
The results strongly suggested if you drink caffeinated beverages, your risk of PD is decreased substantially.
Bilberry is a species of low-growing shrubs in the genus Vaccinium, belonging to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern Europe.
The plant has been used as 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.
With an aim to find a natural ingredient which processes neuroprotective effects against Parkinson's disease, researchers examined the Anthocyanin-rich preparations of Vaccinium species, including bilberry against the oxidative damage in dopaminergic neurons.
V. myrtillus preparation: 50% inhibition with 7 microM of total anthocyanins showed a significant neuron protection activity by inhibiting oxidation caused by the chain reaction of reactive oxygen species (ROS).
The application was found to be 1.5-4 times higher than that for the other preparations or for the purified anthocyanin.
According to the analysis of the chemical constituents, the neuroprotective effects were attributed to the presence of bioactive compounds anthocyanins and total cyanidins found abundantly in bilberry, but not quercetin or myricetin.
The results suggested that the high potency of anthocyanins processes a potentially neurotoxic reaction against the onset of Parkinson's disease.
Dr. Yao Y, the lead scientist wrote, "(the findings) provide a basis for in vivo testing of these flavonoids and their physiological metabolites in the context of neuro- and mitochondrial-protective effects".
Taken altogether, bilberry processed abundantly bioactive compound anthocyanin may be considered a functioning remedy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, pending to the validation of larger sample size and multicenter human study.
