Herbal Oregano

Oregano is a perennial herb with aromatic and balsamic flavor, of the genusOriganum in the family Lamiaceae, native to western and southwestern Eurasia and the Mediterranean. The herb has been used in traditional medicine as anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral agent and to treat skin burns, cuts and bruises, sore throat, asthma, colds, coughs and flu, etc.

Health Benefits
1. Anti inflammatory effect
In the assessment of two fractions (S1 and S2) of an oregano (Origanum vulgare) extract and testing the anti-inflammatory effects on activated human THP-1 cells, found that a decrease in pro-inflammatory TNF-alpha, IL-1beta and IL-6 cytokines synthesis, as well as an increase in the production of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. These results may suggest an anti-inflammatory effect of oregano extracts and their compounds in a cellular model of atherosclerosis, according to "Supercritical fluid extraction of oregano (Origanum vulgare) essentials oils: anti-inflammatory properties based on cytokine response on THP-1 macrophages" by Ocaña-Fuentes A, Arranz-Gutiérrez E, Señorans FJ, Reglero G.(1).

2. Anti microbial effects
In the evaluation of Oregano essential oil (OEO) and its effect on the growth of natural contaminating molds on the surface of Spanish fermented sausage, found that the use of OEO to inhibit surface fungi did not affect the sausage drying process, pH, water activity, or color changes during ripening. These parameters change in a typical pattern for fermented dry-cured sausages during ripening. At the end of ripening, OEO-treated sausages had lower hardness and greater chewiness than the control but showed similar textural properties to sausages treated with potassium sorbate, according to "Role of Oregano (Origanumvulgare) Essential Oil as a Surface Fungus Inhibitor on Fermented Sausages: Evaluation of Its Effect on Microbial and Physicochemical Characteristics" by Chaves-López C, Martin-Sánchez AM, Fuentes-Zaragoza E, Viuda-Martos M, Fernández-López J, Sendra E, Sayas E, Angel Pérez Alvarez J.(2).

3. Antiurolithic activity
In the evaluation of the crude aqueous-methanolic extract of Origanum vulgare (Ov.Cr) for possible antiurolithic effect, found that Antiurolithic activity in Ov.Cr, possibly mediated through inhibition of CaOx crystallization, antioxidant, renal epithelial cell protective and antispasmodic activities, rationalizes its medicinal use in urolithiasis, according to "Antiurolithic activity of Origanum vulgare is mediated through multiple pathways" by Khan A, Bashir S, Khan SR, Gilani AH.(3).

4. Antioxidants
In the comprison of twenty-five essential oils and their major chemical components, including Oregano, were screened for their possible antioxidant activities by assaying their DPPH free-radical scavenging activity (DFRS), total phenolic contents (TPC), trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC), and ferric thiocyanate (FTC). Based on the TPC and TEAC assays
found that two major chemical components of the essential oils cinnamon bark extra, ajowan, and oregano were trans-cinnamaldehyde (90.61%), eugenol (2.58%), carvacrol (61.20%), p-cymene (37.44%), thymol (77.09%), and p-cymene (10.01%). It is clear that phenolic compounds in the aforementioned essential oils yield a positive correlation with the DFRS, TPC, TEAC, and FTC assays, according to "A study of four antioxidant activities and major chemical component analyses of twenty-five commonly used essential oils" by Huang CC, Wang HF, Chen CH, Chen YJ, Yih KH.(4).

5. Wound healing
In the determination of the efficacy of 3% oregano extract ointment on wound healing found that Oregano extract ointment decreased bacterial contamination and subsequent infection on post-surgical wounds and had equivalent overall scar appearance compared to petrolatum, according to "Oregano extract ointment for wound healing: a randomized, double-blind, petrolatum-controlled study evaluating efficacy" by Ragi J, Pappert A, Rao B, Havkin-Frenkel D, Milgraum S.(5).

6. Liver cancer
In the observation of Carvacrol is one of the members of monoterpene phenol found in the volatile oils of Thymus vulgaris, Carum copticum, origanum andoregano and testing for its anti-hepatocarcinogenic activities found that that carvacrol may induce apoptosis by direct activation of the mitochondrial pathway, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway may play an important role in the antitumor effect of carvacrol. These results have identified, for the first time, the biological activity of carvacrol in HepG2 cells and should lead to further development of carvacrol for liver disease therapy, according to "Anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effect of carvacrol on human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG-2" by Yin QH, Yan FX, Zu XY, Wu YH, Wu XP, Liao MC, Deng SW, Yin LL, Zhuang YZ.(6).

7. Anti cataractogenesis
In the assessment of the antioxidant effect of Origanum vulgare extract against selenite-induced cataractogenesis, found that Ov extract have revealed a significant protective effect against selenite induced cataract when injected 1 and 2 day (2 times) before selenite injection. There is a protective effect of Ov against selenite induced cataract formation. It is supposed that the anticataract effect of Ov extract could be based on direct or indirect antioxidant mechanisms, according to "Prevention of selenite-induced cataractogenesis by Origanum vulgare extract" Dailami KN, Azadbakht M, Pharm ZR, Lashgari M.(7).

8. Prolongevity effects
In the demonstration of the oregano-cranberry (OC) mixture and its effect on longevity in the Mexican Fruit fly, found that OC extends lifespan and promotes reproduction partly through DR-independent pathways, and short-term supplementation have varied impact on longevity and reproduction. This also suggests a positive interaction between non-genetic interventions in promoting longevity and provides guidance for using botanicals as aging interventions in humans. according to "Prolongevity effects of a botanical with oregano and cranberry extracts in Mexican fruit flies: examining interactions of diet restriction and age" by Zou S, Carey JR, Liedo P, Ingram DK, Yu B.(8).

9. Cognitive effects
In the investigation of the extract from oregano leaves, with a specified range of active constituents and theirs effect on the modulation of mood, anxiety, cognition, sleep regulation and appetite found that extract prepared from leaves of oregano, a major constituent of the Mediterranean diet, is brain-active, with moderate triple reuptake inhibitory activity, and exhibits positive behavioural effects in animal models. We postulate that such an extract may be effective in enhancing mental well-being in humans, according to "Monoamine reuptake inhibition and mood-enhancing potential of a specified oregano extract" by Mechan AO, Fowler A, Seifert N, Rieger H, Wöhrle T, Etheve S, Wyss A, Schüler G, Colletto B, Kilpert C, Aston J, Elliott JM, Goralczyk R, Mohajeri MH.(9).

10. Antimalarial, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities
In the determination of the the effects of 46 compounds of essential oil fromoregano leaves on antimalarial, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities.found that the aqueous extract had the highest antioxidant activity with an IC50=4.8±0.2 mg/L (DPPH assay). Concerning antimalarial activity, Origanum compactum essential oil and ethyl acetate extract showed the best results with an IC50 of 34 and 33 mg/mL, respectively. In addition, ethyl acetate extract (30 mg/L) and ethanol extract (56 mg/L) showed activity against human breast cancer cells (MCF7). Theoregano essential oil was considered to be nontoxic, according to "Oregano: chemical analysis and evaluation of its antimalarial, antioxidant, and cytotoxic activities" by El Babili F, Bouajila J, Souchard JP, Bertrand C, Bellvert F, Fouraste I, Moulis C, Valentin A.(10).

Most Common Diseases of 50 Plus: Thyroid disease: Silent thyroiditis Treatments In Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective

Thyroid disease

Thyroid disease is defined as a condition of malfunction of thyroid. Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is over active and produces too much thyroid hormones.

Silent thyroiditis

Silent thyroiditis is the inflammation of the thyroid gland. Patients with silent thyroiditis are experience back and forth between hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. The disease classically present with a triphasic course: a brief period of thyrotoxicosis due to release of preformed thyroid hormone that lasts for 1 to 3 months, followed by a more prolonged hypothyroid phase lasting up to 6 months, and eventual return to a euthyroid state. However, the types and degree of thyroid dysfunction are variable in these disorders, and individual patients may present with mild or more severe cases of thyrotoxicosis alone, hypothyroidism alone, or both types of thyroid dysfunction(a).

The Treatments

In traditional Chinese medicine perspective
The below TCM herbal medicine has been proven to be effective in treating inflammatory diseases
1. Deer antler
Deer antler base (Cervus, Lu Jiao Pan) has been recorded in the Chinese medical classics Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing 2000 years ago and is believed to nourish the Yin, tonify the kidney, invigorate the spleen, strengthen bones and muscles, and promote blood flow. In China, deer antler base has been extensively used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to treat a variety of diseases including mammary hyperplasia, mastitis, uterine fibroids, malignant sores and children’s mumps. According to the study by the Dalian University of Technology, both in vitro and in vivo pharmacological studies have demonstrated that deer antler base possess immunomodulatory, anti-cancer, anti-fatigue, anti-osteoporosis, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-bacterial, anti-viral, anti-stress, anti-oxidant, hypoglycemic, hematopoietic modulatory activities and the therapeutic effect on mammary hyperplasia(51).

2. Brown seaweed Sargassum
According to the study by the Southern Cross University, the therapeutic effects of Sargassum spp. are scientifically plausible and may be explained partially by key in vivo and in vitro pharmacological activities of Sargassum, such as anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antiviral activities(52).

3. Callicarpa L. (Verbenaceae)
According to the study by the Second Military Medical University, a variety of ethnomedical use of Callicarpa has been recorded in many ancient Chinese books. Phytochemical investigation of this genus has resulted in identification of more than 200 chemical constituents, among which diterpenes, triterpenoids and flavonoids are the predominant groups. The isolates and crude extract have exhibited a wide spectrum of in vitro and in vivo pharmacological effects involving anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, neuroprotective, anti-amnesic, antitubercular, antioxidant, antimicrobial and analgesic activities. Preparations containing Callicarpa species exerted good efficacy on clinical applications of gynecological inflammation, internal and external hemorrhage as well as acne vulgaris and chronic pharyngitis, etc(53).

General Health: Cerebral aneurysm - The Types

Types of Cerebral aneurysm

A. Cerebral aneurysm classification based on angioarchitecture
Dr. Pritz MB. at the Indiana University School of Medicine, suggested that Only aneurysms in which preoperative imaging studies and operative findings were sufficient for classification were included. All 329 reviewed aneurysms could be divided into 2 groups: fusiform (n=16) and saccular (n=313). Fusiform aneurysms could be subdivided into 2 types: simple (no branch vessel; n=10) and complex (one or more side branches; n=6). Saccular aneurysms could be subdivided into 3 groups: those not associated with a branch vessel (n=31), those associated with a side-branch vessel (n=125), and those located at a bifurcation (n=157). Each of these categories of aneurysms could be classified further based on its association with a conducting, primary, secondary, tertiary, or side-branch vessel. Classification of cerebral aneurysms according to this scheme adequately described all reviewed aneurysms. Grouping aneurysms according to this approach focuses on similarities in angioarchitecture and potential rheologic properties that should prove useful for evaluation ofaneurysm growth, rupture, and treatment(1).

B. Cerebral aneurysms classified both by size and shape
Others researchers suggested that Cerebral aneurysms are classified both by size and shape
B.1. In sizes
1. Diameter of less than 15 mm is classified into Small aneurysms
2. Large aneurysms with size from 15 to 25 mm
3. Giant aneurysms with size from 25 to 50 mm
4. Super giant aneurysms for any aneurysms with size over 50 mm.

B.2. In shapes
1. Berry or Saccular aneurysms
Saccular aneurysms are the most common form of cerebral aneurysm and refers to any aneurysm with a saccular outpouching, including berry aneurysms. Berry aneurysm, is a saccular aneurysm with a neck or stem resembling a berry.
2. Dissecting aneurysmsis is defined as a condition of splitting or dissection of an arterial wall as a result of bleeding into the weakened wall splits the wall.
3. Fusiform aneurysm is also known as Richet's aneurysma is a localized dilation of an artery in which the entire circumference of the vessel is distended. The result is an elongated, tubular, or spindlelike swelling(2).

Obesity is a medical condition of excess body fat accumulated overtime, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relatively to the height. According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered over weight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity. According to the statistic, 68% of American population are either overweight or obese.

You can calculate your BMI index BMI= weight (kg)/ height (m2)

The Studies of Body weight loss and weight maintenance in relation to habitual caffeine intake and green tea supplementation

In the Investigation of the effect of a green tea-caffeine mixture on weightmaintenance after body weight loss in moderately obese subjects in relation to habitual caffeine intake, indicated that High caffeine intake was associated withweight loss through thermogenesis and fat oxidation and with suppressed leptin in women. In habitual low caffeine consumers, the green tea-caffeine mixture improved WM, partly through thermogenesis and fat oxidation(1).
