Scientists may have found a dietary vegetable that processes a strong and profound impact in ameliorated psychological depression, a recent study suggested.
Depression is a common psychological disease that affects your normal feeling, thinking and reacting to events that occur daily in your life.
People with depression may feel ashamed or afraid to ask for help. others suffer in silence.
According to the statistic of the World Health Organization, 300 million people around the world have depression. The numbers of Americans suffer from depression are increasing at an alarming rate. As of today, 16.2 million adults in the United States or 6.7% of all adults have depression in the country.
Women are more susceptible to develop depression than men and fewer than half of those affected by depression in the world is seeking professional treatment.
The disease is the leading cause of disability worldwide, and a major contributor to the overall global burden of diseases.
Depression is a normal response as part of our daily lives such as the loss of s job, the death of a loved one, and illness. Over 30 million
Contrary to some misconceptions, depression can be treated and avoidable.
What cause depression? is debatable, however, genetic predisposition, personality, stress and brain chemistry are found to associate to the onset of the disease.
Chronic medical conditions also can trigger the development of depression. According to the study by the Shanghai University of Sport in the review of 60 articles with a total of 4311 patients, chronic diseases are highly correlated to the expression of depression and reduced quality of life(5).
The study also suggested that increasing SF-36 physical function subscale in such patients in short and long term may have a profound and positive effect in ameliorated depression and improved quality of life.
The use of antidepressants by conventional medicine may be effective. However, they can induce side effects of an upset stomach, insomnia, sexual problems, anxiety, dizziness,....., and fatigue.
In severe cases, the intake of depressants may cause serotonin syndrome, seizures, irregular heartbeat, and unconsciousness and some people in the group under the age of 25 may experience suicidal thoughts, according to the BBC report By Lesley Ashmall(6).
Asparagus is a flowering plant, belongings to species the genus Asparagus, native to the western coasts of northern Spain, north to Ireland, Great Britain, and northwest Germany, northern Africa, and Western Asia.
The vegetable has been used from early times as a food and medicine, because of its delicate flavor and diuretic properties.
In an oral administration of methanolic extract of roots of AR (MAR) of the doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg daily for 7 days and then subjected to forced swim test(FST) in mice, researchers found that application of the extract decreases immobility in FST and increases avoidance response in learned helplessness test (LH), an indication of antidepressant activity.
Dr. Singh GK, the lead author said, " MAR had an insignificant effect on l-DOPA-induced aggressive behavior indicating the absence of activity on the dopaminergic system" and "MAR has significant antidepressant activity and this effect is probably mediated through the serotonergic and the noradrenergic systems and augmentation of antioxidant defenses".
Furthermore, the injection of extracts of Asparagus cochinchinensis (AC) also expressed antidepressive effects, through inhibited oxidative stress that cause neuron cell damage and improve cell signal response and signal transmitting.
Total saponin isolated from AC significantly is found to inhibit the free radical of H2O2 in the induction of cell death in cultured cortical neurons.
Additional analysis suggested that AC antidepressant-like and neuroprotective (reducing infarct size) effects are associated with the activation of Shp-2 pathways which are associated with the inhibition of depression in an animal model.
Some researchers suggested that antidepressant activity of Asparagus racemosus (AR) may also be mediated by the neurotransmitters system, and cognitive activities possibly through the cholinergic system involved neuromuscular junctions, preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system...
Moreover, the study also showed that AR may be used as food and have potential drug-drug, drug-food, and food-food interactions with drugs and foods, sharing the cholinergic and monoaminergic pathways in sending a message between neurons, induced protective activities against the development of depression.
These results suggested that asparagus ameliorated depression with its neuroprotective effect by inhibited free radical that cause neuro cells damage and improved cell signal response.
However, further data collection on large example size and multi-centers studies performed with human consumption of the whole food during the course of the disease will be necessary to complete the picture of asparagus anti-depression possibilities.

Fennel, The Functional Herb Which Processes Anxiolytic Property Similar to Those of Diazepam with No Adverse Effects, Scientists Find
Fennel may have a therapeutic effect in reducing the risk and treatment of anxiety, some scientists suggested.
Anxiety is a psychological problem caused by significant feelings of anxiety and fear of the present and future events.
In conventional medicine, an anxiolytic also known as an antianxiety agent including buspirone (BuSpar), trazodone, venlafaxine, and several of the benzodiazepines, is a medication used to reduce physical and psychological symptoms of anxiety disorder.
Anxiety is caused by a combination of several factors. However, stress directly from all sources is considered a major cause of the disease.
Other causes of anxiety include the longterm use of illicit drugs, medication intake, and medical condition and diseases associated with reduced lung functioning
Although medication may be effective, however, short and long-term use can cause symptoms of nausea. nervousness, dizziness, reduced sexual desire, insomnia.
In severe cases, the medicine can also cause blurred vision. confusion, nightmare, and difficulty thinking or remembering.
If you are taking the above medicine, please make sure that you understand all the side effects.
Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) is a plant species of genus, belongings to Apiaceae (Umbelliferae), native to the Mediterranean, used in traditional and herbal medicine as a warming, carminative, antispasmodic, antidepressant agent and to stimulate the appetite, ease indigestion, soothe coughing, reduce intestinal spasms, to regulate the menstrual cycle and relieve PMS,...
In the investigate of the anxiolytic activity of ethanolic extracts of Foeniculum vulgare fruit by elevated plus maze, rotarod, open field test, and hole board models, researchers found that application of fennel extracts in the does of100-200mg/kg exerts a significant anti-anxiolytic activity, similar to those of standard anxiolytic drugs diazepam (1mg/kg) without inducing intolerable adverse effects.
This result was observed by the increased number of entries and time spent in the open arm in the elevated plus-maze apparatus.
And, application the same doses also promoted a number of rearings, assisted rearing and number of square crossed viewed by an open field test.
Further analysis also discovered that of fennel extracts also processes a potent skeletal muscle relaxant effect assessed by rotarod.
Additionally, in the experiment of the elevated plus maze, rotarod, open field, and hole board used in the evaluation of the psychomotor performance and emotional aspects of rodents removed from their acclimatized cage and placed in an environment express anxiety and fear, application of fennel extract, researchers indicated that
* Fennel injection group decreases anxiety-related behavior to an open area.
* Treated rodents exhibit a significant increase in the number of open arm entries and rearings, time spent in the center and line crossing, and head dipping.
* Fennel extract-treated group also reduces numbers of time of falling through increased muscle relaxant and improved locomotor function.
These results not only are given the supports to the holistic use of fennel in the treatment of anxiety but also reconfirmed the efficacy of fennel extract in reducing levels of anxiety in tested rodents who were placed in the environment with an expression of anxiety and fear in the first study.
Truly, the viability of above is also reaffirmed by the study conducted by the Geethanjali College of pharmacy in adult Swiss albino male mice randomly divided into six groups (n = 6).
According to the results of the analysis of groups I and II received Tween 80 (5%, v/v) and diazepam (0.5 mg/kg, ip), groups III to VI received orally 50, 100, and 200 and 400 mg/kg doses of the essential oil of F. vulgare, mice groups treated with 50, 100, and 200 and 400 mg/kg displayed a significant reduction of anxiety score through an expression of all tests, including elevated plus maze (EPM), staircase test (SCT) and open field test (OFT) and other various parameters in doses dependent manner.
Compared to a higher dose of 400 mg/kg and lower dose treatment group, the application of 100 and 200 mg/kg dose of fennel essential oil mice demonstrated a strong decrease in anxiety through increased percent number of entries and time spent in open arms.
Compared to other doses of the treatment group, the administration of 200 mg/kg dose significantly increased the number of squares crossed at the center in the OFT test.
Furthermore, although the injection of 100 and 200 mg/kg doses of the essential oil-treated mice showed a significant reduction of rearing compared to another group, only the 200 mg/kg dose of the oil expressed a statistically significant reduction in rearing compared with diazepam, the conventional medicine used for the treatment of anxiety.
The discovery in the study postulated that fennel essential oil may have a potential effect in reducing anxiety nonlinearly and doses dependently.
"Fennel extract may possess anxiolytic activity supporting its traditional claim about anxiolytic activity", reported in the 19th edition of Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapeutics by Sathodkar, Bhandarkar, and Rege.
Taken all together, there is no doubt that fennel extracts and essential oil may be considered a secondary therapeutic treatment compared to standard medicine in the treatment of anxiety.
However, the intake of fennel supplements should be taken with extreme care in the prevention of toxicity.

Cranberry, the Best in Hyperglycemia Management Against Diabetics Complications
Diabetes is a medical and chronic disease characterized by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream to regulate glucose.
The disease is either caused by cells in the pancreas that died off or receptor sites clogged up by fat and cholesterol, such as type 2 diabetes.
Most cases of type 1 diabetes are associated with a gene mutation that causes the immune to attack the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas.
Acquired diabetes in most cases is caused by unhealthy lifestyle choices, including high-fat diet and physical inactivity.
According to the statistics provided by the CDC, approximately 23.1 million people in the United States are living with diagnosed diabetes, costing the healthcare system more than $245 billion per year.
Sadly, there is an estimation that another 7.2 million people have diabetes but remain undiagnosed, accompanied by another 84.1 million adults 18 years and older with prediabetes.
Hyperglycemia, a hallmark of diabetes is a condition of abnormally high blood glucose in the blood.
Most cases of hyperglycemia are a result of poor management of blood glucose including uncontrolled diet, physical inactivity, miss-medication, and improper use of insulin injection.
Uncontrolled diabetes or hyperglycemia over the long-term can lead to diabetic complications, including coronary heart disease, stroke, hypertension, depression, pain, polypharmacy, and functional disability.
Long-term elevated glucose values above 180 to 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), or 10 to 11 millimoles per liter (mmol/L) have been found to induce symptoms of frequent urination, increased thirst, blurred vision, fatigue, and headache.
In severe cases, some patients may also experience life-threatening complications such as fruity-smelling breath, shortness of breath, weakness, confusion, and coma.
Dr in the study of hyperglycemia in the aging population wrote, "Higher levels of Sirt1 and PGC-1α and increased expression of gluconeogenesis pathway genes are found in the hyperglycemic NOD mice. Increased Sirt6 abundance is found in the hyperglycemic NOD mice, which might increase DNA damage repair".
And, "With aging, lower Sirt1 abundance and activity, increased acetylated histone modifications and Sirt7 levels, and NOR methylation is found. Thus, whereas in normal aging cell metabolism is reduced, in the diabetic mice a compensatory mechanism may elevate Sirt1 and Sirt6 levels, increasing gluconeogenesis and DNA repair from the oxidative damage caused by hyperglycemia".
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.
Cranberry is an evergreen dwarf shrub, genus Vaccinium, belongings to the family Ericaceae, native to Northern America and Southern Asia. Because of its health benefits, cranberry has been cultivated in some parts of the world for commercial profit and used in traditional and herbal medicine to treat wounds, urinary disorders, diarrhea, diabetes, stomach ailments, and liver problems.
On finding a potential compound for the treatment of diabetes complications, researchers examined the effect of aqueous solutions of two different cranberry powders (CP and CP-SAB) on hyperglycemia.
In vitro, in vitro CP and CP-SAB administration showed a significant inhibition of α-amylase, α-glucosidase, and angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) associated with the management of hyperglycemia linked to type 2 diabetes.
Low levels of α-amylase have been found in patients with diabetes.
α-glucosidase is associated with the digestion of carbohydrates is elevated in patients with disbetes
According to the chemical analysis, the efficacy of CP and CP-SAB that inhibits hyperglycemia was probably attributed to the chemical constituents p-Coumaric acid and quercetin derivatives, the main phenolic compounds identified in the cranberry powders.
Furthermore, increased with increased dose (1-5 mg/mL) of CP-SAB exerted the increased α-glucosidase inhibitory activity from 60% to 100%.
At 5 mg/mL, CP-SAB exerted a maximum of 40% inhibition against α-amylase.
Levels of ACE were also significantly inhibited by CP-SAB at the concentration of 100 and 200 mg/mL sample concentrations.
Based on the results, researchers wrote, "These in vitro results indicate the potential of cranberry powders as a dietary supplement and food-based strategies for potential hyperglycemia management".
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered a remedy for the management of hyperglycemia, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Herbal Angelica May Suppress the Symptoms of Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a form of arthritis, found in the general term of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) characterized by wear and tear on joints.
The chronic and medical condition affects over 25 million people in the United States alone.
The characteristics of osteoarthritis are aching pain, stiffness, or difficulty of moving the joint or joints. Therefore one must understand the differences in prevalence and incidence estimates of osteoarthritis (OA), compared to other types of arthritis.
Furthermore, the pain usually gets worse ina change of weather, at night, and in the advanced diseases, and the pain can occur even at rest.
In contrast to the general belief, osteoarthritis only damages the joints of hands, knees, but also cause inflammation of the joints in your hips and spine.
The condition is a slow development disease, often starts in the 40s and 50s, and affects almost all people to some degree by age 80.
The common risk factors of osteoarthritis are aging, gender, improper healing of injured joint at a young age, obesity, and bone deformity. However, people who have a job with tasks that place repetitive stress on a particular joint are associated with the onset of osteoarthritis in most industrial countries.
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, the 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 with the increased risk of the onset of the disease.
On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of aging-related diseases, scientists examined the angelica phytochemical, sodium ferulate, and a polysaccharide fraction on osteoarthritis animal models or in human chondrocytes stimulated by the pro-inflammatory cytokine, Interleukine-1β.
Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China.

The chronic and medical condition affects over 25 million people in the United States alone.
The characteristics of osteoarthritis are aching pain, stiffness, or difficulty of moving the joint or joints. Therefore one must understand the differences in prevalence and incidence estimates of osteoarthritis (OA), compared to other types of arthritis.
Furthermore, the pain usually gets worse ina change of weather, at night, and in the advanced diseases, and the pain can occur even at rest.
In contrast to the general belief, osteoarthritis only damages the joints of hands, knees, but also cause inflammation of the joints in your hips and spine.
The condition is a slow development disease, often starts in the 40s and 50s, and affects almost all people to some degree by age 80.
The common risk factors of osteoarthritis are aging, gender, improper healing of injured joint at a young age, obesity, and bone deformity. However, people who have a job with tasks that place repetitive stress on a particular joint are associated with the onset of osteoarthritis in most industrial countries.
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, the 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 with the increased risk of the onset of the disease.
On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of aging-related diseases, scientists examined the angelica phytochemical, sodium ferulate, and a polysaccharide fraction on osteoarthritis animal models or in human chondrocytes stimulated by the pro-inflammatory cytokine, Interleukine-1β.
Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China.

Herbal Angelica Induces Apoptosis of Human Neuroblastoma Cells
The brain formed part of the central nervous system is the most complex organ made up of more than billions of nerve cells or neurons.
The functions of the brain are associated with the communication of trillions of connections called synapses and many specialized regions.
A neuron or nerve cell made of a cell body (also called soma), dendrites, and an axon, is a cell in the nervous system that carries electrical impulses.
Neurons are core components of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves that play an essential role in processing and transmitting the information.
Neuroblastoma is cancer developed by the immature nerve cells found in several areas of the body, mostly in and around the adrenal glands.
Cancer most commonly affects children age 5 or younger compared to less often in older children.
According to the statistics provided by the Cancer Net, approximately 800 children are diagnosed with neuroblastoma in the United States.
And 90% of children affected by neuroblastoma are younger than 5.
Sadly, the the-5-year survival rate of cancer is less than 50%.
Most common symptoms are totally depending on the area that has been effected
* Neuroblastoma in the abdomen can induce symptoms of pains, a mass under the skin that isn't tender when touched and changes in bowel habits, such as diarrhea or constipation.
* Neuroblastoma in the chest may cause symptoms including wheezing, chest pain and changes to the eyes, including drooping eyelids and unequal pupil size
Some patients with neuroblastoma may also experience symptoms of back pain, fever, unexplained weight loss, and bone pain.
On finding a natural ingredient for the prevention and treatment of brain cancer, scientists examined the effects of Angelica polymorpha Maxim root extract (APRE) cytotoxicity on neuroblastoma cells (NB).
Angelica or Dang Qui is a herb of Genus Angelica from the family Apiaceae, indigenous to China.
The herb has been used as a Queen herb in traditional Chinese medicine antispasmodic and vasodilatory agent, and to balance the hormones in women for a normal menstrual cycle and menstruation and strengthen heart, spleen, kidneys, and liver for both men and women, etc. In other words, it is used to treat gynecological ailments, fatigue, mild anemia, and high blood pressure. It has analgesic, anti-inflammatory, etc.
According to the final results of the experiment,
* APRE reduced cell viability in NB to a greater extent than in fibroblast cells.
* APRE could inhibit proteins and down-regulated pathways associated with cancer cell proliferation and survival.
* Furthermore, APRE promoted pro-apoptotic protein and inhibited the expression of proteins associated with anti-apoptosis.
* Moreover, APRE depolarized the mitochondria membrane potential and activation of caspase-3 associated with the cell death in the SH-SY5Y cells.
Additional differentiation, researchers said, "APRE, the intrinsic pathway was solely responsible for inducing apoptosis as we also showed that the non-caspase autophagy pathway or ER stress-ROS mediated pathways were not involved".
Taken altogether, herbal angelica may be considered a remedy for the treatment of neuroblastoma, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Chaste Tree Berry, The Best Hepatoprotective Whole Herb Medicine
Chaste tree beery is found to associate with reduced risk of liver damage and diseases through various mechanisms, the recent study suggested
Chaste tree berry is a species of Vitex agnus-castus, genus Vitex, belonging to the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean region, used in herbal medicine for thousands of years as an aphrodisiac herb and considered as Queen herb in treating menstrual problems and discomforts.
In acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity in mice study, oral administration of chaste tree berry increased significantly in the expression of levels of antioxidant in inhibition of free radicals domino' effect and levels of ferric ion in induced hepatotoxicity caused by acetaminophen.
According to the Al-Hikmah University, Hepatoprotective effects of chaste tree berry may also mediate the alternative effects of acetaminophen in serum alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, albumin, and total bilirubin levels which can also contribute to hepatoxicity.
Dr. Ajiboye TO said, " Vitex doniana fruits possess antioxidant properties and halted acetaminophen-mediated oxidative rout on cellular proteins, lipids and DNA, made possible by β-sitosterol, platycodin D, apigenin, saikosaponin, chrysin and ellagitanin, (the antioxidants) in the extract".
Furthermore, ethanol extract Vitex glabrata (EEVG) on carbon tetrachloride-induced liver damage in rats, .displayed also antioxidant activity in inhibited superoxide dismutase, GSH, lipid peroxidation (LPO), catalase, and peroxidase levels in liver homogenate.
Pre-treatment of the extract illustrated a strong inhibited effect against levels of LPO in CCl(4)-intoxicated livers and reduced the elevated serum levels of chemical compounds which can cause liver damage
In fact, the extract displays an enormous hepaprotective effect similar to those of silymarin through enhancing antioxidant mechanisms of its components, predominantly artemetin.
According to the The Vinayaka Mission’s College of Pharmacy study, in the CCl4 induced hepatic injury in albino rats, vitex extract not only is comparable to the standard drug, silymarin (100 mg/kg, p.o.), but also altered serum biomarker enzyme levels which were damage through injection of CCI4, to near normal in treated rats.
Taking together, there is no doubt that Chaste tree berry may process a protective effect in reduced risk of harmful chemicals and drugs induced liver damage, but the injection of the large amount should be taken with care.

Herbal Bilberry Improves Your Lipoprotein Parameters in Human Trials
The lipoprotein profiles or lipoprotein parameters are a general term comprised the traditional lipoprotein profile include total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and triglyceride.
Total cholesterol is the total amount of cholesterol in your blood, including the low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or “bad”) cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or “good”) cholesterol.
The healthy ratio of blood cholesterol is less than 4 of the low-density lipoprotein to 1 of high-density lipoprotein.
Where low-density lipoprotein is produced by the liver or from food sources needed for the cells to build strong membranes, produce steroid hormones, vitamin D, and bile to aid the digestive system in absorbing nutrients and fluids.
And high-density lipoprotein produced by the liver or from the external sources needed to return the low-density lipoprotein back to the liver.
Triglycerides, an important measure of heart health is the fat in the blood caused by the over-consumption of foods containing fat, carbohydrates, and simple sugars.
Factors that affect your lipoprotein profiles can be unpreventable including age, gender, race, and genetic preposition and preventable such as diet, weight, physical activity, and smoking.
Some researchers suggested that people who are obese are at a substantially higher risk of poor lipoprotein profiles.
Dr. Pandolfi C, the lead scientist wrote, "Lipid pattern has resulted in overlapping both in the two studied populations and in the two subgroups of pre- and postmenopausal women, while greater concentrations of Lp(a), (p < 0.001) and t-PA (p < 0.05) have been found in obese populations vs controls".
Bilberry is a species of low-growing shrubs in the genus Vaccinium, belongings 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.
In the urgency on finding natural sources of the plant-based compound for the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), researchers investigated regular consumption of bilberries in CVD risk reduction.
Women (n=25) and men (n=11) selected to the study received 150 g of frozen stored bilberries 3 times a week for 6 weeks. All parameters associated with the risk CVD were measured by standard assays.
In both sexes, the consumption of bilberries led to a decrease in the parameters of lipoprotein profiles, including total cholesterol, LDL-C, TG, and a positive increase in HDL-C.
However, in men, additionally, favorable changes were observed in total cholesterol (P=.004), reduced oxidative stress, and HDL-C, but an increase in LDL-C compared to women group.
In other words, the regular intake of bilberries can be important to reduce CVD risk, by promoting a decrease of LDL-C/TG and an increase of HDL-C.
Furthermore, in order to reveal more information about bilberry against CVD risk, researchers compared consumed dried sea buckthorn berries (SBs), sea buckthorn oil (SBo), sea buckthorn phenolics ethanol extract mixed with maltodextrin (SBe+MD, 1:1), or frozen bilberries on metabolic profiles.
In a total of 80 women selected to complete this randomized crossover study for 30 d, all interventions induced a significant effect on the overall metabolic profiles, particularly in lipid parameters observed both in participants who had a metabolic profile that reflected higher cardiometabolic risk at baseline (group B) and in participants who had a lower-risk profile (group A).
However, the bilberries treatment group caused beneficial changes in serum lipids and lipoproteins in group B, whereas the opposite was true in group A.
The finding clearly suggested bilberries modulated the parameters of lipids and lipoproteins depending on the risk of CVD.
Dr. Larmo PS, after taking into account co and confounders wrote, "Berry intake has overall metabolic effects, which depend on the cardiometabolic risk profile at baseline (including bilberry)".
Taken altogether, bilberry may be considered a functional remedy for the promotion of lipid-protein profiles in reducing the risk of CVD, pending to the validation of a larger sample size and multicenter human study.
