Chaste tree berry may have a potential in improved pancreatic islet regeneration in reduced risk of development and treatment of Type I and II diabetes, the renowned institute study postulated.
Diabetes is condition caused by insufficient insulin entering the bloodstream in regulation of glucose. The disease is either caused by cells in the pancreas dying off or receptor sites clogged up by fat and cholesterol. In some cases, diabetes is also caused by an allergic reaction of cells in the immune system.
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.
According to the study, diabetes rats induced by streptozotocin treated with extract of chaste tree berry displayed a significant effect in increased volume density of pancreatic islet as well as percentage of β-cells and size of the islet.
Dr. Oche O, the lead researcher said, "plant extracts, (exhibited) regeneration of β-cells along with β-cells repairs, in compared to non-treated diabetic control which showed complete degeneration of the islet cells".
Furthermore, the study also found that the levels of total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, and unconjugated bilirubin which are associated with diabetes were significantly lower in the treated group in comparison to control.
More important, in D-galactose induces pancreatic disorder along in the aging mouse model, treatment of Vitex agnus-castus (VAC) demonstrated potential pancreatic protective and hypoglycemic effects through improved the size of pancreatic islets decreased in aged and D-galactose groups.
In a total of 72 adult female Naval Medical Research Institute (NMRI) mice (weighing 30-35 g) divided into 6 groups of control, VAC hydroalcoholic extract, D-galactose, D-galactose + VAC hydroalcoholic extract, aged, aged + VAC hydroalcoholic extract through subcutaneous injection of D-galactose for 45 days and, VAC hydroalcoholic extract gavaged twice a day in the last 7 days. 24 h after the last drug and extract administrations, group treated with Chaste tree berry extract or combinations of the extract showed increased insulin and decreased serum glucose and in D-galactose level compared to other treatment groups.
The study also found, "Despite the size of pancreatic islets decreased in aged and D-galactose groups, ........... VAC hydroalcoholic extract has hypoglycemic and pancreatic protective effects in natural aged and aging model mice".
In fact, there is also a report indicated that oral administration of once-daily to diabetic rats for the period of 30 days of iridoid glucoside isolated from chaste tree berry may be as effective as glibenclamide, a known hypoglycemic drug, at a concentration of 50 mg/kg b.w.
Promisingly, iridoid glucoside reversed hyperglycemia-induced biochemical changes to near-normal levels.
Collectively, Chaste tree berry may be used as a functional food for the treatment of Type I and Type II diabetes through the hypoglycemic and pancreatic protective effects.

Herbal Cinnamon, The Natural Alternative for Treatment of Infertility, Scientists Say
Scientists may have found a kitchen spice which processes some underline mechanisms in enhancing the rate of fertility, some studies suggested.
Infertility is a condition characterized by the inability of a couple to conceive after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse or the cannot carry the pregnancy full term.
The syndrome affects over 5 million couples alone in the US. Because of the unawareness of treatments, only 10% seek help from professionals.
According to the statistic, about 35% of infertility is caused by the male's inability to fertilize. 35% is caused by the female's inability to conceive, 10% attributes to both, and 10 % is considered a failure with an unknown cause.
Dr, Romero Ramos R, in the study [Risk factors associated to female infertility], wrote, "There were 6 factors with statistical significance: advanced age (p < 0.001), elevated body mass index (p < 0.001), age of onset of sexual activity (p < 0.001), prior pelvic surgeries (p < 0.001), and presence of stress (p < 0.001). Other risk factors such as smoking, chemical, and radiological treatments, pelvic inflammatory disease, exercise, contraceptive use, alcohol intake, drugs, coffee, solvents, glue, and insecticides, were not significant".
In male infertility, according to a case-control study conducted by Dr. Buiatti E and colleagues, about coffee and alcohol consumption, smoking habits, x-ray exposure, usual sitting posture, drug consumption, other nonoccupational risk factors, socioeconomic status, education level, and occupational history are some of the prevalent risk factors associated to male infertility.
And, the high relative risk was associated with (a) occupation in the radioelectric industry, (b) non-sedentary clerical workers, (c) clerical work in the typographic industry, and (d) occupation in the textile industry,
Cinnamon, a kitchen spice in many cultures, may be best known for its effectiveness in reducing the levels of blood glucose in diabetics and lipid peroxidation through its antioxidant activity(4).
In a total of 45 women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, randomized, 26 women completed 3 months of the study, and 17 women completed the entire 6 months of the study, researchers showed,
* Application of cinnamon exerts a positive effect in the improvement of menstrual cyclicity associated with luteal phase progesterone levels and ovulatory menses without altering insulin resistance or serum androgen levels
* Cinnamaldehyde, a major chemical compound of cinnamon enhances fertility through selectively induced progesterone production and inhibits the production of testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone in human adrenal cells.
* Further differentiation, suggested that cinnamon extract not only reduces insulin resistance in vitro and in vivo by increasing phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity with insulin stimulation in the insulin signaling pathway but also improves menstrual cyclicity in female induced PCOs.
Moreover, in the infertile male rat study conducted by Fırat University, long-term cinnamon bark oil(CPO) improved the effect on testicular oxidant-antioxidant balance and sperm quality with significantly decreasing the abnormal sperm rate and apoptotic germ cell count.
Interestingly, in the study to investigate the likelihood of detrimental effects of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4 ) on the male reproductive system through oxidative stress mechanism and also protective effects of cinnamon bark oil (CBO), researchers at the Firat University conducted an experiment including 28 healthy male Wistar rats.
The tested subjects were divided into four groups, seven rats in each. Group 1 received only olive oil daily; group 2 was treated with 100 mg kg(-1) CBO daily; group 3 was treated with only 0.25 ml kg(-1) CCl4 weekly, and group 4 received weekly CCl4 + daily CBO.
All administrations were made by the intragastric catheter and maintained for 10 weeks.
At the final report, researchers suggested that
* CCl4 administration caused significant decreases in body and reproductive organ weights, testicular catalase (CAT) activity, sperm motility and concentration, and significant increases in lipid peroxidation (LPO) level, abnormal sperm rate and apoptotic index along with some histopathological damages compared with the control group.
* Pretreatment of CBO following the administration of CCl4 significant improvements in absolute weights of testis and epididymis, all sperm quality parameters, LPO level, apoptotic index, and testicular histopathological structure Cl4, compared to the group given CCl4 only.
Taken altogether, Cinnamon may be effective in promoting fertility in both sexes through enhancing the menstrual cycle in women and improving sperm performance in men.

Cranberry Protects Your Gum Against Periodontitis
Periodontitis is a serious case of gingivitis associated with gum infection that damages the soft tissue and destroys the bone that supports your teeth as a result of long-term poor oral hygiene
Periodontitis is preventable if the progression of gingivitis stages is stopped
Gingivitis is a common and mild form of periodontal disease caused by inflammation of the gingiva, leading to symptoms of irritation, redness, and swelling of the gum that lines the base of the teeth.
Gingivitis dental plaques formed around the base of the teeth are sticky biofilm of bacteria associated with the interaction of the food intake and bacteria in the mouth. Over time, if untreated, the condition can lead to periodontitis and advanced periodontitis.
At this early stage, the bone and connective tissue that hold the teeth in place are not yet affected. The problems can be reversed by more frequent and proper brushing and flossing.
Epidemiologically, risk factors induce the onset of gingivitis are smoking or chewing tobacco. diabetes and long-term use of certain medication including oral contraceptives, steroids, anticonvulsants, calcium channel blockers.
Some people under the treatment of chemotherapy may also experience symptoms of gingivitis.
The Colgate Professional in the examined the symptoms advised that if you have experienced some of the symptoms that do not heal themselves in a short time, such as puffy or swollen, or tender, bleeding during brushing or flossing,... and constant bad breath or a bad taste in your mouth, you may have gingivitis.
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 periodontitis, researchers examined the effect of cranberry and rice extracts as a potent gingipain inhibitor.
Based on the tested analysis, cranberry and rice extracts interfere with gingipain activity that causes the slow down the progression of adult periodontitis.
Furthermore, the extracts prevented the growth and biofilm formation of periodontal pathogens induced the onset of periodontitis.
Moreover, the extracts also inhibited a broad spectrum of host proteases in the induction of undesirable side effects
As of today, the ideal gingipain inhibitor has yet to be discovered, however, cranberry and rice extracts may be a promising gingipain inhibitor comapred to gingipain N-terminal pro domains, synthetic compounds, antibiotics, antiseptics, antibodies, and bacteria which may induce undesirable side effects
The results strongly suggested that cranberry promotes oral health by inhibiting the onset and progression of periodontitis through its anti-bacterial activity
Taken altogether, cranberry may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of periodontitis, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.

Bromelain Speeds Up Healing of Ecchymosis
Ecchymosis is a discoloration of the skin caused by the bleeding underneath the skin, typically in bruising.
Most cases of ecchymosis are results in which the blood vessels near the surface of the skin burst, particularly in the impact of an injury.
In other words, ecchymosis is associated with blood vessel leaks, and the blood is accumulated under the skin.
The discoloring of the skin is also involved in the clotting factors, that stop the bleeding so that the tissue starts healing.
The progression of ecchymosis is gone through a certain stage from red or purple to black or blue
to brown and to yellow.
Certain medications have been found to induce ecchymosis including:
* Blood thinners, such as aspirin or warfarin
*Antibiotics such as cephalexin, cefaclor, and cefuroxime-axetil can cause ecchymosis by inducing low platelet count
* Corticosteroids
According to the study from the University College Hospital, easy bruising tended to be older (61 vs 52 yrs), on higher daily dosages (1,388 vs 1,067 micrograms), particularly in the long term inhaled corticosteroids users.
Most cases of ecchymosis usually heal on their own within two to three weeks. Most common medications used for the treatment of ecchymosis are pain relievers.
Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) has been used in traditional medicine as an inflammatory agent and to treat pains, strains, and muscle aches and pains and ease back pain and chronic joint pain, skin diseases, etc.
With an aim to find a potential compound for the treatment of ecchymosis, researchers examined the effects of bromelain on ecchymosis postprocedure unwanted effects.
In the reconfirm the effect of bromelain used internationally by physicians on limit ecchymosis secondary to cosmetic, laser, and surgical skin procedures, researchers reviewed the published literature and provide evidence-based recommendations on bromelain for prevention and treatment of postprocedure ecchymosis.
The search on the computerized bibliographic databases Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, and CINAHL on March 23, 2015, identified 7 clinical trials that study the effect of oral bromelain in the prevention and/or treatment of postprocedure ecchymosis compared to no studies that use topical bromelain for the treatment of ecchymosis.
Based on the results, 5 out of 7 randomized controlled trials reported improvement postprocedure ecchymosis in the bromelain-treated group.
Taken altogether, bromelain may be considered a remedy for the treatment of postprocedure ecchymosis, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
Intake of bromelain in the form of supplements should be taken with extreme care to prevent overdose acute liver toxicity.

In order to compare the effect of the combination of fennel extract/vitamin E with ibuprofen on the intensity of pain in primary dysmenorrhea among the students of Tabriz city in 2007-2009, researchers od the joint study lead by the Kosar Department of Shahid Motahhary Hospital carried out an investigation of 68 students from Medical and Tabriz universities, who were living in the dormitory, suffering from primary dysmenorrhea.
All participants were randomly divided into two groups of 34 students each (the two groups used combination of fennel extract/vitamin E and ibuprofen cross-over form in the 2 months).
Application of the combination displayed a mean of peak pain intensity in the first, second, third, sixth, and forty-eight hours in the group was significantly lower than the group that had used ibuprofen.
Also, a combination of fennel extract/vitamin E was more effective than ibuprofen in the first hour (P < 0.03) and second hour (P < 0.04), according to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) tool for ranking the intensity of the pain.
These results suggested that fennel and vitamin E combination was more efficacy in blocking the neuron in transmitting pain caused by overexpression prostaglandin hormone in the induction of abdominal muscle constriction in comparison to conventional medicine ibuprofen.
Dr. Nasehi M, the lead author, after taking into account other co and confounders said, "Combination of fennel extract/vitamin E is effective on decreasing the intensity of pain of primary dysmenorrhea, and it is advised to those who cannot use chemical drugs".
In a separate study to investigate the effect of fennel used alone on primary dysmenorrhea symptoms and menorrhea duration, 80 female students satisfied the criteria and guidelines were randomly divided into two groups of intervention (n = 40) and control (n = 40).
The intervention group was given one soft capsule Fennel (30 mg) every 4 hours, 3 days before menstruation till the 5th day, and continued for 3 months. The control group received no medication.
According to the result of the experiments, the fennel treated group exerted a significant decrease of the mean of nausea intensity and weakness from 1.93, and 2.88 after 3 months, in comparison to the control group from 2.37, 6.65 in the control group.
Also in compared to the control group, the fennel group reduced the duration of the menstrual period after two and three months of use.
Moreover, Fennel treated group demonstrated a strong improvement of quality and feelings of well-being after 1 and 3 months.
Taken together, fennel may be considered as a functional food for the treatment of Primary Dysmenorrhea without inducing adverse effects.

Some researchers suggested that the intake of certain herbal medicine may enhance appetite suppression.
According to the Georgetown University Medical Center, the appetite of average daily food intake was decreased only with the herbal formulation, regardless number of single-ingredient in comparison to the effectiveness among herbal formulation and a commonly available(3).

In mice fed with a high-fat diet, ginseng saponin and ginsenosides exerted anti-obesity effects via the modulation of physiological lipid metabolism in vivo or intracellular signaling in cell culture systems and abnormal physiology of leptin, insulin, and adiponectin in energy and lipid metabolism(16).
2. Zingiber Officinale(Ginger
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) or ginger root is the genus Zingiber, belongings to the family Zingiberaceae, native to Tamil, used in traditional and Chinese medicine to treat dyspepsia, gastroparesis, constipation, edema, difficult urination, colic, etc.(17).
According to the Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Slimax (extract of several plants including Zingiber officinale and Bofutsushosan) showed a significant decrease in body weight or inhibited weight gain(18).
Application of composition of a multi-ingredients supplement containing primarily raspberry ketone, caffeine, capsaicin, garlic, ginger, and Citrus aurantium, also improved body composition, waist and hip girth, in an eight-week diet and exercise weight loss program(19).
In a comparison of the weight loss effect of Orlistat, a pharmacological agent promoting weight loss, injection of ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe, Zingiberacae) in male albino rats induced a great ability to reduce body weight without inhibiting pancreatic lipase level, or affected bilirubin concentration, and increased peroxisomal catalase level and HDL-cholesterol(20).
3. Cissus quadrangularis (CQ)
Cissus quadrangularis is an ancient herb used to treat a variety of indications, belongings to the grape family, probably native to India or Sri Lanka.
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design study involving 123 overweight and obese persons (47.2% male; 52.8% female; ages 19-50). conducted by the University of Yaoundé I, Cissus quadrangularis, application of cissus quadrangularis displayed a statistically significant net reduction in weight and central obesity, as well as normalized metabolic syndrome(21).

The combined study of a low-calorie diet and Ephera, in 125 otherwise healthy obese women, showed effectively in reducing BMI. RMR change not compensated for by the herbal medicines tried.
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) change seemed to be affected by constitution and body composition rather than by medicine(11). The Dongeui University study of composition GGEx18( Laminaria japonica, Rheum palmatum, and Ephedra sinica) in high fat diet-induced obese mice suggested that GGEx18 improves obesity through skeletal muscle AMPK and AMPK-stimulated expression of PPARα and its target enzymes for fatty acid oxidation, through inhibited lipid accumulation, and similar activation of genes(12).
Please note that due to its adverse reactions of palpitations, stress, headache and insomnia and stroke, heart attacks, cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, and psychotic effect, the FDA banned the product on 2004, the Dutch Inspectorate for Health Care and the Ministry of Health in Canada have recently requested a market recall of some ephedrine-containing herbal products in response to above adverse reactions. In the Netherlands, the status of Ephedra-containing products is currently reconsidered(13)]

Herbal Cranberry, a Potential and Natural Prevention and Treatment of Esophageal Tumor
The esophagus formed part of the digestive system is a muscular tube that connects the throat (pharynx) with the stomach located behind the trachea and heart and in front of the spine.
Cancer is a group of chronic diseases associated with irregular cell growth that start in the cell on the surface of the inner lining tissue of the specific gland and organ before penetrating into deeper layers to form tumors through unlimited cell cycle division.
Over time, most cancers have become progressively worse and spread to other organs in the body via lymph or blood.
Esophageal cancer is not very uncommon in the US caused by malignant cells of the esophagus due to cell DNA alternation.
Primary esophageal cancer has been found to spread to the bottom of the esophagus, stomach, and chest.
According to the statistics, compared to the US, esophageal cancer is more often diagnosed in other parts of the world and the seventh most common cause of cancer death among men.
Believe it or not, every year, the disease causes the death of 16,000 individuals, including 13,000 men and 3,000 women,
Compared to other cancers the 5-year survival rate for people with esophageal cancer is only 19%.
The exact causes of esophageal cancer are unidentified. However, according to the epidemiological studies, aging, male gender, smoking, excessive alcohol drinking, genetic preposition, obesity, thermal injury to the esophagus are some prevalent factors that increase the risk of the disease.
Some researchers suggested that the increased incidences of esophageal cancer in the Western world over the past few decades may be correlated to the promotion of a high-fat diet.
Dr. Silvano Gallus wrote, "Over the last 30 years, the incidence of squamous-cell carcinoma has decreased in several areas of the world, but adenocarcinoma has risen by over fourfold in the US as well as in Australia and several areas of Europe; its incidence has particularly increased in men".
And, " diets high in saturated fat and cholesterol have been associated with an increased risk (of esophageal cancer)".
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 gastrointestinal tumor, researchers examined the effect of a purified cranberry-derived proanthocyanidin extract (C-PAC) on esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) cell lines, including acid-sensitive JHAD1 and OE33 cells, and esophageal tumor xenografts in athymic NU/NU mice.
According to the tested assays, C-PAC shared a strong activity in inducing the expression of a protein associated with cell death programming mainly in JHAD1 and OE33 cells.
Autophagy that promotes cancer cell growth and anti-apoptosis of JHAD1 and OE33 cells were also inhibited by the injection of C-PAC.
In vitro, C-PAC induced cell death was attributed to deactivation of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathways expression in the promotion of cancer cellular processes, including cell survival, growth, and differentiation.
Additionally, C-PAC not only inhibited the levels of anti-apoptotic proteins such as BCL-xL, Cytochrome C, PARP), pathways involved in the occurrence and progression of cancer, but also exhibited the expression of proteins that induces cell cycle arrest.
Similarly, in vivo, oral delivery of C-PAC significantly inhibited OE19 tumor xenograft growth as the aforementioned activities.
In other words, in vitro and vivo purified cranberry-derived proanthocyanidin extract (C-PAC) eradicate the esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) cells through several mechanisms involved in pro-apoptosis, anti-anti-apoptosis, and blocking cellular division.
Based on the finding, researchers after taking other factors into account wrote, " C-PAC is a potent inducer of EAC cell death and is efficacious in vivo at non-toxic behaviorally achievable concentrations, holding promise for preventive or therapeutic interventions in cohorts at increased risk for EAC, a rapidly rising and extremely deadly malignancy".
Taken altogether, cranberry extract may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of esophageal cancer, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
