Diabetes and Nut Consumption:


New researches support the people with type 2 diabetes to eat nuts to prevent cardiovascular issues and premature death.

Nuts usually have essential nutrients that could benefit in the betterment of health.

Usually nuts contain high level of unsaturated fatty acids, fibre, vitamin E, folate, and minerals.
The latest researches suggest that consumptions of nuts may reduce the risk of chronic diseases.



Type 2 diabetes and nut consumption

Type 2 Diabetes is the chronic condition in which the body metabolizes the glucose which is the primary source of fuel. Possible complications may include kidney damage and cardiovascular disease.

Boosting up the intake of nuts.

The research proved that intake of nuts greatly reduced the chances of cardiovascular diseases in the patient diabetes.
Almonds, macadamias, pistachios, walnuts, and cashews were found to lower the risk of type 2 diabetes.

Mental Health: Depression


In rare cases physical problems can cause depression but predominantly symptoms of depression are the part of more complex psychiatric problem. The major different types of depression includes,

  • Major depressive disorder
  • Chronic depression and dysthymia
  • Seasonal affective disorder
  • Psychotic depression
  • Bipolar depression.

1.Major Depression

The victim who is found to have major depression feels the long-lasting sense of hopelessness and despair. It is usually characterized by the symptoms that interfere with work, study, sleep and eat.


2.Dysthmia
This is one of the less severe forms of depression, but this found to be existed over the long period of time and the patients found to be completely unhappy.

3.Psychotic depression.
It has been estimated that more than 25% of the people who are supposed to admit in the hospitals are suffering from psychotic depression. These peoples are more frequently found to have hallucinations and delusions.

4.Depressive disorder with seasonal patterns.
This type of depression usually recurs at the same time every time. Usually in the starting in the fall or winter or early summer. It is just little bit more than the winter blues or cabin fever.

What causes depression?
Unfortunately, there is no one cause for the depression it ma be also due to the factors such as biology, emotional and the environmental factors.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is one among the complicated disorder characterized by extreme fatigue. This type of fatigue may worsen the physical or mental activity and doesn’t seems to improve with rest.

This condition is also known as systemic exertion intolerance disease (SEID) OR myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME).

The absolute cause for the chronic diseases is still unknown, but the reason may vary ranging from viral infections to psychological stress.

The symptoms of this diseases include,
  • Fatigue
  • Loss of memory or concentration
  • Sore throat
  • Enlarged lymph nodes in your neck or armpits
  • Unexplained muscle or joint pain
  • Headaches
  • Unrefreshing sleep
  • Extreme exhaustion lasting more than 24 hours after physical or mental exercise

One among the chronic disorder: Crohn's disease

Crohn’s disease is one among the inflammatory bowel disorder. It usually causes the inflammation of our digestive tract, which may lead to the abdominal pain, severe diarrhoea, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition. Inflammation caused by crohn’s disease can involve different areas of the digestive tract in different people.



The infection caused due to this disease usually spreads deep into the layers of affected bowel tissue. Crohn’s disease can be both painful and debilitating and sometimes may lead to the life-threatening diseases.

Still there is no cure for the crohn’s disease therapies can only reduce the signs and symptoms of this disease and bring about the long-term remission.

Autoimmune thyroid diaseases

The autoimmune chronic thyroiditis or Hashimoto' thyroiditis is an inflammatory autoimmune disease of the thyroid, characterized by a lymphocitic chronic infiltration. This pathology is frequently silent, often hands to a gradual but progressive and irreversible hypo-function of the thyroid. It is the most frequent cause of hypothyroidism in the guilty ones of the world to enough contribution of iodine, while it is relatively being rare in the zones to lack iodine. The greatest incidence is the women it is calculated around 3,5 cases for 1000 inhabitants a year. At the base of the pathology there is an inflammatory autoimmune process that brings to the destruction of the thyroid follicles, caused both from a cells-mediate mechanism and from organ specific antibodies. Once activated the lymphocitic T helper it produces different cytokines that perpetuates and the inflammatory process they make autoimmune chronic. Therefore both the inflammatory process and the lymphocitic infiltration leads to a reduction of the synthesis of the thyroid hormones. The bio-humoral mechanism seems to have a secondary role. Sometimes in some occasions we can also be found some antibodies anti TSH receptor blocking (TSHRblokingAb) responsible of the atrophy variant (idiopathic myxedema) or even more rarely anti Receptor of the TSH antibodies (TRAB) responsible of the condition of transient hyperthyroidism or at times permanent that rarely can be found in patients with Hashimoto' thyroiditis (Hashitoxicosis) due to the release of the thyroid hormones from the destroyed thyroid cells. Often the chronic thyroiditis can be are associated with other autoimmune diseases (poly-glandular autoimmune syndrome). The diagnosis founds him on the data of laboratory that underline elevated values of specific antibodies (overall AbTPO). Nevertheless in a low percentage of cases 5-10%, we can find a condition of chronic thyroiditis in absence of specific antibodies. In such case the diagnosis is sustained by the aid of the sonography. The typical picture in fact it is peculiar with a markedly hypochoic thyroid with poor intra-thyroidal vascularization. In many cases is not in demand some treatment because the gullet is small the patient it is often asymptomatic with levels of TSH in the range of the norm and in absence of antibodies. In that case it is not required any therapy a part the use of selenium as anti-oxidant agent and Vitamin D. In patients with hypothyroidism (both subclinical than clinical) the pharmacological treatment was mandatory as the administration of the substitutive therapy with levothyroxine especially in children and in the women that are in pregnancy or to the search of pregnancy. The purpose of the hormone-therapy is that to normalize the TSH values with a first control to 45-60 days and once reached the therapeutic remuneration they are enough hormonal controls TSH and FT4 every 6-12 months. Lasting the therapy in the 50-90% of the cases is assisted to a reduction of the thyroid volume and consistence both for the normalization of the values of TSH and for the reduction of the lymphocytic infiltrate. Besides it is also assisted to a reduction of the antibodies title, to which has been shown the association it contributes using selenium and vitamin D.

Atherosclerosis


Atherosclerosis: Mechanisms, current therapies and the potential of natural products in the prevention and treatment of the disease


Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disorder of medium and large arteries and the underlying cause of heart attacks and stroke, is responsible for more global deaths than any other disease. A slight reduction in morbidity and mortality from atherosclerosis and its complications has been seen recently, at least in the western world, due to lifestyle changes and pharmaceutical interventions (e.g. statins). However, the global burden from this disease is expected to worsen in the near future because of recent increases in risk factors such as diabetes and obesity. Current pharmaceutical treatments for atherosclerosis are associated with considerable residual risk for cardiovascular disease together with various side effects. With the exception of few successes (e.g. ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors), many pharmaceutical leads against established targets have proved disappointing at the clinical level. It is therefore important that further research is carried out on the molecular basis of atherosclerosis together with alternative therapies for its prevention and treatment.

Natural products have received substantial recent interest in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis. However, more research is required that addresses the molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of natural products together with large clinical trials that evaluate their efficacy. We have recently initiated studies on the effects of many natural products, including certain polyunsaturated fatty acids, polyphenols and probiotics, on several key monocyte/macrophage processes associated with atherosclerosis in vitro and various risk factors in vivo together with the underlying mechanisms. These will be presented in the context of molecular mechanisms underlying atherogenesis together with current therapies and those that are being developed.
