Can positive or negative emotions affect your body’s physical, mental and spiritual health?\nIs a woman more likely to become pregnant if she eats a lot of vegetables or if she were to go on a long, relaxing vacation?\nAre you more likely to do cancer if you have a hot temper?\nDo people who laugh a lot live longer?\nDoes your anxiety or fear of crowds, elevators, blood, heights, spiders, hospitals, or airplanes somehow affect your health?\nMy theory of one sickness, one disease and one health, are set forth in what I call “The New Biology,” not only considers how our diet affects our physiology, but also how our psychology affects our physiology and how our psychology affects our spirituality.\nNot only does the health of your body affect the emotions of your mind, but your thoughts and feelings can affect the health of your entire body.\nBottom line, your mental state is ever so critical. In so many ways, your mental state, if it’s negative, can create more metabolic acids than the acidic foods and drinks that you’re ingesting.\nIn fact, you can create two or three times more metabolic acids from your thoughts or your mental and emotional state than from ingesting highly acidic foods like dairy, animal protein, sugar and alcohol.\nSo your thoughts are critical. Your thoughts or words do become matter, and can affect your physiology in a negative or positive way. Your thoughts do become biology. And the way that thoughts become biology is as follows:\n1) When you have a thought or say a word, it requires electrical or electron energy for the brain cell(s) to produce those actions.\n2) As you carry on with that thought, you are burning or consuming energy in the form of electrons.\n3) When you are consuming energy or using electrons in your thoughts, you are producing biological waste products called acids which are an energetic waste product which can be measured in pH, oxidative reduction potential (ORP), hertz and decibels.\n4) Next, if the metabolic acidic waste products from your thoughts are not properly eliminated through the four channels of elimination which are urination, perspiration, respiration or defecation, then the acidic waste products from your thoughts are moved out into your interstitial fluids and the pushed out into your connective and fatty tissues because it must not be allowed to affect the delicate pH of the blood. This delicate balance of the blood must remain quite constant at 7.365 and the interstitial fluids at 7.2, in order to remain healthy.\n5) What happens next is this. As the excess and overload of acidic waste products are thrown out into the body tissues, this can easily lead to all sorts of symptomologies: lupus, fibromyalgia, Lyme’s, arthritis, muscle pain, fatigue, tiredness, obesity, cancerous breasts, a cancerous prostate, a cancerous stomach and/or bowels, indigestion, acid reflux, heart burn, heart attacks, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s, dementia, autism, and the list goes on and on.\nFor example let’s say you’ve been doing sadness or depression. This downer feeling is coming from a negative experience that you keep looping and re-looping in your head. It’s like a mind movie. It’s a mini-drama that you keep playing over and over. And because you are constantly thinking about it, eventually you even start to be concerned or worried about the fact that you are so preoccupied with the whole affair. So now in addition to the sad drama, you are experiencing upset about the fact that you’re having the drama itself. All of this thinking requires energy and when you’re consuming energy you are also producing metabolic acidic waste products.\nDo you know any angry people? You may not know it, but many people who become angry easily not only get angry at various people, events, and situations, but eventually they are irritated with themselves for being so angry at everything else. Anger, for instance, requires a tremendous amount of energy and emits a great deal of electrical energy. You have undoubtedly felt the vibrational energy of someone who is angry. Or maybe you have felt your own anger and how it can upset your physiology, i.e., especially an upset stomach and bowels with excess acids leading to indigestion, stomach pain, acid reflux or ulcers.\nEven worse, many of these negative emotions are chronic and can be traced all the way back to early childhood experiences. So, at one level or another, it’s been going on for a long time and creating excessive acids all along.\nFor many people, early childhood represents some of the most fearful and vulnerable years. Have you ever wondered why you can’t remember much before age five or six?\nMany of those years are filled with fears and tears, mads and sads and how about the “bads”?\nDo you remember what happened when you were “bad?”\nImagine the acidic waste produced from those experiences. In addition to the punitive experience itself, imagine the acidity a child deals with by simply:\na) remembering such a “bad” experience or\nb) anticipating the possibility of another such “bad” experience…or\nc) both! Some “children” remember these events forever!\nSome chronic emotions begin early:\n“O dear white children casual as birds, Playing among the ruined languages,\nSo small beside their large confusing words,\nSo gay against the greater silences, Of dreadful things you did…”\nIt is during these vulnerable and unprotected years that we often plant eternal seeds of emotion that will yield an unwelcomed harvest of acidic internal results, perhaps throughout one’s entire life.\nThe turmoil between parents and children, not to mention the conflicts between children and children, have been documented by many thousands of social science books and articles.\n“Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them;\nRarely, if ever, do they forgive them.”\nSo, let’s take a look at all of that emotion. Perhaps you are feeling a strong emotion. It could be any emotion.\nFirst of all, emotions are energy in motion. When you are (e)motional, you are energetic, either in a positive or negative way. And if you are energetic, you are literally energy in (e)motion. You are now producing metabolic acidic waste products (lactic acid, uric acid, citric acid, just to name a few) at a very high rate which is a waste product of such (e)motions.\nThe rate of acid production in an (e)motional state can be even greater than that of someone who is jogging or working out. So, your thoughts do become biological or metabolic acids that can make you sick, tired, depressed, angry and even too fat or underweight.\nWhen you start producing acids with your thoughts, words and actions, what happens inside? First, you activate the alkaline-buffering systems of the body in order to neutralize these (e)motional acids. The body begins making a primary alkaline buffer known as sodium bicarbonate. It’s actually made in the stomach cells from salt, water and carbon dioxide from the blood and during its production, it creates a waste product known as hydrochloric acid.\nHydrochloric acid is a poisonous acidic toxin and cannot remain in the blood or in the stomach. So it is dropped down into the gastric pits of the stomach. This is why people get upset stomachs or become constipated when they are (e)motional. This increase of sodium bicarbonate is critical in maintaining the alkaline design of the body, the pH of 7.365 for the blood and for maintaining alkalinity of the interstitial fluids of the interstitium which is the largest organ of the human body. If these metabolic acids, including hydrochloric acid, are not buffered and/or eliminated through the four channels of elimination, they can create serious health challenges in your body, in your mind, and in your soul.\nOn the other hand, positive (e)motions, such as love, peace, hope, faith, joy, forgiveness and charity can be alkalizing to the blood and tissues. These (e)motions require far less energy and can cause you to be relaxed in your mind and stop the playing of some acidic movies in your head. Students of higher consciousness know that you can even enter into a state of bliss wherein you have no thoughts and wherein you are producing zero metabolic acid.\nFor myself, I have decided to call this wonderful place “Young Charity.” That’s because I exercise and meditate every day. And I Love it! And it raises my level of consciousness and positive connection with the world. The connections between “Young” and “Charity” are numerous. My name is Young, of course, but more importantly, being young is a term we normally associate with being youthful, energetic, open, optimistic, and filled with excitement. And the ultimate purpose of life is Charity. And Charity is the sweetest expression of life. So “Young” and “Charity” go together.\nTo be sure, I Love my exercising and it Loves me back in terms of its gifts to me. I find myself Loving this state of bliss daily which I know is helping to alkalize my body. That is why I am addicted to why I Love this type of alkalizing exercise that I do every day. It’s called a Positive Addiction. I Love to have my friends and guests work out with me as I lead them through the steps. I teach them the “Young” version of Yoga. I tell them that it is known as “Younga Yoga.” They Love that. (Well, at least they laugh.) It incorporates proper breathing, stretching, toning, mediation, relaxation, and of course some sweating to remove yesterday’s dietary and metabolic acids and to help bring me into a state of happiness and bliss.\nNow. this next thought is very important! The negative emotions of anger, resentment, and fear­ being the most powerful and acidifying of all emotions are all highly acidic to the blood, interstitial fluids and tissues and in many ways are paralyzing to all bodily functions. Over time, the fear of the unknown is probably the most powerful and acidic of them all. Fear is so devastating to the body that even if you’re on an alkaline diet, overcoming a serious health challenge is practically impossible.\nIn such a dire case, with what may seem to be little or no improvement, you might be wondering if the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet may not be working. You may be asking, “What else am I not doing that I should be? How come I feel the way that I’m feeling? I’m eating the right way, I’m drinking the right alkaline electron rich water, but I can’t seem to achieve the type of extraordinary health and energy that I’m seeking.”\nIn most cases like this, when you are eating and drinking correctly, it will come down to your negative acidic (e)motions or thoughts that are holding you back from achieving extraordinary health, fitness, mental clarity, happiness, and bliss. However, keep this in mind:\nWhen you’re eating an alkaline diet and you are doing everything you know how to do, and yet you are overwhelmed with worry, doubt and negative emotions, thank God you’re eating an alkaline diet! If your body were not seriously in the alkaline direction, you might very well be experiencing a struggle for your life. Your acidic (e)motions can literally kill you. So the alkaline lifestyle and diet is the saving grace. Knowing that should give you the positive hope that you can hang on to, get through the emotional stress, and still come out physically and mentally able.\nHope and positive expectations are always the key, and knowing that you are on an alkaline diet should aid significantly in boosting your hope and confidence. You can live without food for forty days. You can live without water for about four days. You can live without air for maybe four minutes. But you cannot live without hope at all. Hope, positive expectations, confidence in what you are doing, and trust in your own good intentions is the key, and that’s what the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet will do for you. It will give you hope.\nThe leading cause of death in the world today is said to be heart attacks. But people are really having “thought attacks,” NOT “heart attacks.” There are studies showing that over 80% of all heart attacks are (e)motionally triggered. I have said that people don’t die of a heart attack. They die of a “thought attack” that medical science simply refers to as a heart attack because that’s the end result.\nAnd if you have wondered if you can die from a broken heart, the answer is absolutely!And the cause? Acids from your energy in motion or (e)motion. The loss of a cherished love one can increase your metabolic acids from the (e)motion to the point that it can stop your heart from beating and pumping life-giving blood throughout your blood vessels. And we all know or should know that life and death is in the blood, the most important “organ” of the body.\nSo let’s take a moment to talk about what I do when I have a client who’s in a highly negative acid-forming (e)motional situation and all the body fluids, including the blood, will show a decline in the pH even when this person has been eating an alkaline diet.\nIn order to buffer the acidic forming (e)motions, the client will have to hyper-alkalize the blood, interstitial fluids and then the tissues in order to bring the body back into alkaline balance. When the client is hyper-alkalizing, the pH of the urine will increase into the high 8’s and even into the 9’s. Hyper-alkalization is necessary in order to overcompensate for the negative acidic producing (e)motions and to bring the body back to health, energy, vitality, hope, peace, harmony, love and finally charity.\nSo, does a person have a fair chance of healing themselves from a degenerative disease or dis-ease like heart disease or cancer?\nCan you ever achieve a state of blissful happiness?\nCan you recover from the devastating shock of a loss or from having been diagnosed with a scary-sounding health challenge?\nI say “absolutely, YES!” And, I just told you how.\nA chemical drug may temporarily calm a person down, but it will also inhibit the entire spectrum of normal and healthy functioning of the Amygdala. I am assuming here that most of us still value and are interested in the healthy functions of socialization, sexual attraction, and the enjoyment of the myriad of feelings associated with home and hearth. All of these wonderful human experiences and memories are also functions of the Amygdala every bit as much as the feisty adrenal functions responding to “fight and flight.”\nIn our attempts to find a chemical drug to treat almost everything, we (more often than not) create more problems than we eliminate one step forward and two steps backward. I know that attention deficit problems (ADHD) respond to an alkaline regimen….and hyperactivity is an Amygdala function. So it follows that an alkaline lifestyle and diet would produce less overall adrenal “stress” as well (really just the fight or flight mechanism by another name).\nThe pH Miracle electron-rich alkaline lifestyle and diet is calming to the mind and thus calms the negative (e)motions or energy in motion. This appropriate calming of the Amygdala function produces less “stress.” And, with less “stress” you have less metabolic “acid.” And, with less metabolic “acid” you have less sickness, dis-ease, so-called disease, depression and unhappiness.\nCan our emotions cause cancer?\nI have said that cancer is a four letter word “ACID.” When you are doing negative acidic emotions, such as anger, revenge, hate, sadness or depression, you are creating metabolic acids that can cause ANY and ALL cancerous conditions across all body fluids and tissues. If metabolic acids are not removed via urination, perspiration, defecation or respiration, then they are delivered to the interstitial fluids and then to the body tissues. When constant excess acidic waste from negative (e)motions are poured into the body tissues, the body tissues will degenerate causing a cancerous condition. Pharmaceutical companies are creating drugs addressing symptoms that may give you the illusion of feeling better, but they DO NOT deal with the causative metabolic acids from eating and drinking and negative acidic (e)motions. This can only lead to more physical and emotional pain and unnecessary suffering.\nWhen you are in a negative (e)motional state, it can become impossible for you to heal your serious degenerative or acidic health challenge. But, I will say this: if you are willing to commit to change and begin the alkalizing process, even if you are not completely out of your state of fear, anger, depression or anger, you will begin to put more “Young Life,” “Young Energy,” and “Young Charity” into your body, mind and soul.\nI have found over the years that when you start feeling better, you start thinking better. And when you start thinking better, you start doing better. So, you don’t have to have your (e)motions completely under control in order to start losing weight, feeling better, reversing a serious illness, having more sustainable energy and to start being happy and more mentally and spiritually connected.\nWhen you start the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet program, you are then making a conscious decision to try to do a little better. And, when you get on this healing path that leads to “Young Living,” “Young Energy,” and “Young Charity,” this gradual alkalizing process you start having those little and then those big pH miracles. You start feeling better and you start thinking better. And, when you start feeling and thinking better, you realize at some point that you have forgotten your depression and your sadness. Feelings of anger have disappeared and even what you were upset about. You soon forget what you were fearful about in the first place.\nWhy? These changes come about because you feel so good. You are rewriting your epi-genetics with your positive (e)motions. You are taking your alkalizing eraser and erasing all your past life’s negative emotions. On the pH Miracle Lifestyle and Diet your (e)motions or energy in motion will finally be under your control. You will become the master of your mind, body and soul. You will be living an alkaline lifestyle and diet full of energy, happiness, bliss and love. You will be living and breathing “Young Charity.”\nTo learn more about the affect of negative and positive (e)motions on the brain and body and to learn more about “Young Living”, “Young Energy”, and “Young Charity”, read my latest books, The pH Miracle Revised and Updated, The pH Miracle for Diabetes, The pH Miracle for Weight Loss and The pH Miracle for Cancer!\nMay I also suggest starting with our alkalizing support products for opening up the four channels of elimination, hyper-perfusing the blood, interstitial fluids and then tissues with alkalinity, restoring health to the gut, building healthy blood and body cells and finally creating a healthy body, mind and spirit and a life full of joy, peace, happiness, love and charity.\nTo learn more about the blueprint for “Young Living,” “Young Energy,” and “Young Charity,” read my latest books, The pH Miracle revised and updated and The pH Miracle for Cancer – http://www.phoreveryoung.com\nFor additional support I would suggest a supervised pH Miracle Retreat.

Modern scientific investigations have now confirmed that this remarkable plant has over a dozen healing properties.\nIn our continuing effort to educate folks to the vast array of healing agents found in the natural world around us, we are excited to feature peppermint, a member of the aromatic mint family that you may already have squirreled away somewhere in your kitchen cupboard. While most have experienced peppermint as a flavoring agent, or perhaps as a comforting cup of herbal tea, few are aware of its wide range of experimentally confirmed therapeutic properties.\nThe ancients certainly were aware of the mint family’s medicinal value, having been used as herbal medicines in ancient Egypt, Greek and Rome thousands of years ago.[27] Dried peppermint leaves have even been found in several Egyptian pyramids carbon dating back to 1,000 BC.\nToday, modern scientific investigations are revealing an abundance of potential health benefits associated with the use of different components of the peppermint plant, including aromatherapeutic, topical and internal applications.\n1) Irritable Bowel Syndrome – Since the late 90’s it was discovered that enteric-coated peppermint oil capsules are safe and effective in the treatment of this increasingly prevalent disorder.[2] This beneficial effect extends to the pediatric community. In one children’s trial 75% of those receiving peppermint oil had reduced severity of pain associated with IBS within 2 weeks.[3] Another 2005 trial in adults concluded that “Taking into account the currently available drug treatments for IBS Peppermint oil (1-2 capsules t.i.d. over 24 weeks) may be the drug of first choice in IBS patients with non-serious constipation or diarrhea to alleviate general symptoms and to improve quality of life.”[4] In another 2007 trial 75% of patients receiving peppermint oil saw an impressive 50% reduction of “total irritable bowel syndrome score.”[5] Most recently, a study published January of this year found that peppermint oil was effective in relieving abdominal pain in diarrhea predominant irritable bowel syndrome.[6]\n2) Colonic spasm – Peppermint oil has been studied as a safe and effective alternative to the drug Buscopan for its ability to reduce spasms during barium enemas.[7] [8]\n3) Gastric Emptying Disorders – Peppermint has been found to enhance gastric emptying, suggesting its potential use in a clinical setting for patients with functional gastrointestinal disorders.[9]\n4) Functional dyspepsia – A 2000 study published in the journal Ailment Pharmacology and Therapy found that 90 mg of peppermint oil and 50 mg of caraway oil resulted in 67% of patients reporting “much or very much improved” in their symptoms of functional dyspepsia. [10]\n5) Infantile Colic: A 2013 study found that peppermint is at least as effective as the chemical simethicone in the treatment of infantile colic.[11]\nOther studied applications include\n6) Breastfeeding Associated Nipple Pain and Damage: A 2007 study found that peppermint water prevented nipple cracks and nipple pain in breastfeeding mothers.[12]\n8) Allergic rhinitis (hay fever): A 2001 preclinical study found that extracts of the leaves of peppermint inhibit histamine release indicating it may be clinically effective in alleviating the nasal symptoms of allergic rhinitis.[14]\n9) Shingles Associated Pain (Post-Herpetic Neuralgia): A 2002 case study found that topical peppermint oil treatment resulted in a near immediate improvement of shingles associated neuropathic pain symptoms; the therapeutic effects persisted throughout the entire 2 months of follow-up treatment. [15]\n10) Memory problems: A 2006 study found that the simple aroma of peppermint enhances memory and increases alertness in human subjects.[16]\n11) Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea: A 2013 study found that peppermint oil was found to be effective in reducing chemotherapy-induced nausea, and at reduced cost versus standard drug-based treatment.[17]\n14) Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1: Peppermint has been found to have inhibitory activity against acyclovir-resistant Herpes Simplex virus type 1.[22] [23]\n15) Dental Caries/Bad Breath: Peppermint oil extract has been found to be superiorto the mouthwash chemical chlorhexidine inhibiting Streptococus mutans driven biofilm formation associated with dental caries.[24] [25] This may explain why powdered peppermint leaves were used in the Middle Ages to combat halitosis and whiten teeth.\nLike all plant medicines, extreme caution must be exercised when using extracts and especially essential oils. Also, remember that more is not always better. A recent study on the use of rosemary in improving cognitive performance in the elderly found that a lower ‘culinary’ dose (750 mg) was not only more effective in improving cognition (as measured by memory speed) than a higher dose, but the highest dose (6,000 mg) had a significant memory impairing effect.[30] This illustrates quite nicely how less can be more, and why an occasional nightly cup of peppermint tea may be far superior as preventive strategy than taking large ‘heroic’ doses of an herb only after a serious health problem sets in.\nTo order the iJuice Peppermint oil go to: https://www.ijuicenow.com/product-page/ijuice-peppermint-sage-oil\n1) Peppermint oil is a safe and effective alternative for the elimination of colonic spasms instead of Buscopan during a double-contrast barium enema\nSpasmolytic effect of peppermint oil in barium during double-contrast barium enema compared with Buscopan.\nClin Radiol. 2003 Apr;58(4):301-5. PMID: 12662951\nT Asao, H Kuwano, M Ide, I Hirayama, J-I Nakamura, K-I Fujita, R Horiuti\nAIM: To evaluate the efficacy of peppermint oil in barium as a spasmolytic agent during a double-contrast barium enema (DCBE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 383 DCBEs with positive results from occult blood tests were assessed. Patients were assigned to one of four groups: peppermint in barium (n=91), peppermint in tube (n=90), Buscopan (n=105), or no treatment (n=97). After a screening sigmoidoscopy, the DCBEs were performed using air as a distending gas. In the Buscopan group, the DCBE was performed with an intramuscular injection of 20mg Buscopan at the start of the examination. Patients in the no-treatment group underwent DCBE without any spasmolytic agent. A peppermint oil preparation (30ml) was mixed in the barium solution for patients in the peppermint-in-barium group, and the same dose of peppermint oil was included in the enema tube in the peppermint-in-tube group. The presence of spasm on a series of spot films was evaluated without information about the type of spasmolytic agent used. RESULTS: The percentage of patients in the four groups (no treatment, Buscopan, peppermint in tube, and peppermint in barium) with absence of spasm in the entire colon on the series of spot films was 13.4, 38.1, 41.8, and 37.8%, respectively. In the group using peppermint oil or Buscopan, the rate of patients with non-spasm examination was higher than that in no-treatment group (p<0.0005). Peppermint oil had the same spasmolytic effect as the systemic administration of Buscopan in the transverse and descending colon. Peppermint oil had a stronger effect in the caecum and the ascending colon than a Buscopan injection (p<0.005). There was no advantage to placing peppermint oil in the enema tube over mixing it in the barium solution. A total of 157 polyps were found during the DCBE procedures, and no differences were observed in the number of lesions among the four groups. Peppermint oil did not impair image quality. CONCLUSION: Barium solution mixed with peppermint oil was safe and effective for the elimination of colonic spasm during the DCBE procedure, and it could be used instead of Buscopan.\nArticle Published Date : Apr 01, 2003\n2) Enteric-coated peppermint-oil capsules is safe and effective in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome\nEnteric-coated peppermint-oil capsules in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome: a prospective, randomized trial.\nJ Gastroenterol. 1997 Dec;32(6):765-8. PMID: 9430014\nJ H Liu, G H Chen, H Z Yeh, C K Huang, S K Poon\nTo determine the efficacy and tolerability of an enteric-coated peppermint-oil formulation (Colpermin), we conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study in 110 outpatients (66 men/44 women; 18-70 years of age) with symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. Patients took one capsule (Colpermin or placebo) three to four times daily, 15-30 min before meals, for 1 month. Fifty-two patients on Colpermin and 49 on placebo completed the study. Forty-one patients on Colpermin (79%) experienced an alleviation of the severity of abdominal pain (29 were pain-free); 43 (83%) had less abdominal distension, 43 (83%) had reduced stool frequency, 38 (73%) had fewer borborygmi, and 41 (79%) less flatulence. Corresponding figures for the placebo group were: 21 patients (43%) with reduced pain (4 were pain-free), 14 (29%) with reduced distension, 16 (32%) with reduced stool frequency, 15 (31%) with fewer borborygmi, and 11 (22%) with less flatulence. Symptom improvements after Colpermin were significantly better than after placebo (P < 0.05; Mann-Whitney U-test). One patient on Colpermin experienced heartburn (because of chewing the capsules) and one developed a mild transient skin rash. There were no significant changes in liver function test results. Thus, in this trial, Colpermin was effective and well tolerated.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 01, 1997\n3) Peppermint oil improves abdominal symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. – Article 2\nPeppermint oil in irritable bowel syndrome.\nPhytomedicine. 2005 Aug;12(8):601-6.

This study observed the efficacy of peppermint oil for relieving the symptoms and changes of quality of life (QOL) in diarrhea predominant IBS. This was a prospective double blind randomized placebo-controlled study conducted in the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University during July 2008 to September 2009. Patients who fulfilled ROME II were initially selected but those had red flag signs or any organic disease was excluded from the study. Seventy four patients were enrolled in the study and randomly allocated to receive either peppermint oil or placebo three times daily for six weeks. Changes of symptoms were assessed three week interval during treatment and two weeks after the end of treatment. Data were analyzed by paired and unpaired ‘t’ test. Finally sixty five patients completed the trial. It was observed that, at six weeks of therapy abdominal pain is markedly improved (mean±SD) 4.94±1.30 in peppermint oil group compared with 6.15±1.24 in placebo group and the difference was statistically highly significant (p>0.001). But two weeks after end of trials pain score again increased (6.09±1.93). Other symptoms and quality of life did not improve significantly.

AIM: The aim of the study was to test the effectiveness of enteric-coated peppermint oil in patients with irritable bowel syndrome in whom small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, lactose intolerance and celiac disease were excluded. METHODS: Fifty-seven patients with irritable bowel syndrome according to the Rome II criteria, with normal lactose and lactulose breath tests and negative antibody screening for celiac disease, were treated with peppermint oil (two enteric-coated capsules twice per day or placebo) for 4 weeks in a double blind study. The symptoms were assessed before therapy (T(0)), after the first 4 weeks of therapy (T(4)) and 4 weeks after the end of therapy (T(8)). The symptoms evaluated were: abdominal bloating, abdominal pain or discomfort, diarrhoea, constipation, feeling of incomplete evacuation, pain at defecation, passage of gas or mucus and urgency at defecation. For each symptom intensity and frequency from 0 to 4 were scored. The total irritable bowel syndrome symptoms score was also calculated as the mean value of the sum of the average of the intensity and frequency scores of each symptom. RESULTS: At T(4), 75% of the patients in the peppermint oil group showed a >50% reduction of basal (T(0)) total irritable bowel syndrome symptoms score compared with 38% in the placebo group (P<0.009). With peppermint oil at T(4) and at T(8) compared with T(0) a statistically significant reduction of the total irritable bowel syndrome symptoms score was found (T(0): 2.19+/-0.13, T(4): 1.07+/-0.10*, T(8): 1.60+/-0.10*, *P<0.01 compared with T(0), mean+/-S.E.M.), while no change was found with the placebo. CONCLUSION: A 4 weeks treatment with peppermint oil improves abdominal symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.\nArticle Published Date : Jun 01, 2007\n6) Peppermint oil is effective in relieving abdominal pain in diarrhea predominant IBS transiently\nEfficacy of Peppermint Oil in Diarrhea Predominant IBS – A Double Blind Randomized Placebo – Controlled Study.\nMymensingh Med J. 2013 Jan ;22(1):27-30.

This study observed the efficacy of peppermint oil for relieving the symptoms and changes of quality of life (QOL) in diarrhea predominant IBS. This was a prospective double blind randomized placebo-controlled study conducted in the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University during July 2008 to September 2009. Patients who fulfilled ROME II were initially selected but those had red flag signs or any organic disease was excluded from the study. Seventy four patients were enrolled in the study and randomly allocated to receive either peppermint oil or placebo three times daily for six weeks. Changes of symptoms were assessed three week interval during treatment and two weeks after the end of treatment. Data were analyzed by paired and unpaired ‘t’ test. Finally sixty five patients completed the trial. It was observed that, at six weeks of therapy abdominal pain is markedly improved (mean±SD) 4.94±1.30 in peppermint oil group compared with 6.15±1.24 in placebo group and the difference was statistically highly significant (p>0.001). But two weeks after end of trials pain score again increased (6.09±1.93). Other symptoms and quality of life did not improve significantly. So the study result concludes that peppermint oil is effective in reliving only abdominal pain in diarrhea predominant IBS transiently.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2012\n7) Peppermint is a simple, safe and inexpensive way to relieve spasm during barium enema\nDoes peppermint oil relieve spasm during barium enema?\nBr J Radiol. 1995 Aug;68(812):841-3. PMID: 7551780\nM J Sparks, P O’Sullivan, A A Herrington, S K Morcos\nDepartment of Diagnostic Imaging, Northern General Hospital NHS Trust, Sheffield, UK.\nThe effectiveness of topical peppermint oil added to barium sulphate suspension in relieving colonic muscle spasm during double contrast barium enema examination was assessed in a double blind study. 141 patients were randomized either to a control group (71 patients) examined with standard barium suspension or to the treatment group which received peppermint oil mixed with the barium preparation. No residual spasm was evident in a significant proportion of patients in the treated group (60%) compared with the control group (35%) (p<0.001). The patients’ acceptability of the procedure was good and there were no adverse effects on the overall quality of the examination. In conclusion, the addition of peppermint oil to the barium suspension seems to reduce the incidence of colonic spasm during the examination. The technique is simple, safe, cheap and it may lessen the need for intravenous administration of spasmolytic agents.\nArticle Published Date : Aug 01, 1995\n8) Peppermint oil is a safe and effective alternative for the elimination of colonic spasms instead of Buscopan during a double-contrast barium enema\nSpasmolytic effect of peppermint oil in barium during double-contrast barium enema compared with Buscopan.\nClin Radiol. 2003 Apr;58(4):301-5. PMID: 12662951\nT Asao, H Kuwano, M Ide, I Hirayama, J-I Nakamura, K-I Fujita, R Horiuti\nAIM: To evaluate the efficacy of peppermint oil in barium as a spasmolytic agent during a double-contrast barium enema (DCBE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 383 DCBEs with positive results from occult blood tests were assessed. Patients were assigned to one of four groups: peppermint in barium (n=91), peppermint in tube (n=90), Buscopan (n=105), or no treatment (n=97). After a screening sigmoidoscopy, the DCBEs were performed using air as a distending gas. In the Buscopan group, the DCBE was performed with an intramuscular injection of 20mg Buscopan at the start of the examination. Patients in the no-treatment group underwent DCBE without any spasmolytic agent. A peppermint oil preparation (30ml) was mixed in the barium solution for patients in the peppermint-in-barium group, and the same dose of peppermint oil was included in the enema tube in the peppermint-in-tube group. The presence of spasm on a series of spot films was evaluated without information about the type of spasmolytic agent used. RESULTS: The percentage of patients in the four groups (no treatment, Buscopan, peppermint in tube, and peppermint in barium) with absence of spasm in the entire colon on the series of spot films was 13.4, 38.1, 41.8, and 37.8%, respectively. In the group using peppermint oil or Buscopan, the rate of patients with non-spasm examination was higher than that in no-treatment group (p<0.0005). Peppermint oil had the same spasmolytic effect as the systemic administration of Buscopan in the transverse and descending colon. Peppermint oil had a stronger effect in the caecum and the ascending colon than a Buscopan injection (p<0.005). There was no advantage to placing peppermint oil in the enema tube over mixing it in the barium solution. A total of 157 polyps were found during the DCBE procedures, and no differences were observed in the number of lesions among the four groups. Peppermint oil did not impair image quality. CONCLUSION: Barium solution mixed with peppermint oil was safe and effective for the elimination of colonic spasm during the DCBE procedure, and it could be used instead of Buscopan.\nArticle Published Date : Apr 01, 2003\n9) Peppermint may have therapeutic value in gastric emptying disorders\nEarly effects of peppermint oil on gastric emptying: a crossover study using a continuous real-time 13C breath test (BreathID system).\nJ Gastroenterol. 2007 Jul;42(7):539-42.

Peppermint water is popularly used for the prevention of nipple cracks in the North West of Iran. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of peppermint water in the prevention of nipple cracks during breastfeeding in comparison with the application of expressed breast milk (EBM). METHODS: One hundred and ninety-six primiparous breastfeeding women who gave birth between February and May 2005 in a teaching hospital in Tabriz, Iran, were randomized to receive either peppermint water or EBM. Each woman was followed for up to three visits or telephone calls within 14 days and then by telephone call at week six postpartum. RESULTS: Women who were randomized to receive peppermint water were less likely to experience nipple and areola cracks (9%) compared to women using EBM (27%; p<0.01). Women who used the peppermint water on a daily basis were less likely to have a cracked nipple than women who did not use peppermint water (relative risk 3.6, 95%CI: 2.9, 4.3). Nipple pain in the peppermint water group was lower than the expressed breast milk group (OR 5.6, 95% CI: 2.2, 14.6; p<0.005). CONCLUSION: This study suggests that peppermint water is effective in the prevention of nipple pain and damage. Further studies are needed to assess the usefulness of peppermint water in conjunction with correct breastfeeding techniques.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2007\n13) Inhalation of the essential oil of peppermint may prevent recurrences and exacerbations of pulmonary tuberculosis\n[Use of essential oil of peppermint (Mentha piperita) in the complex treatment of patients with infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis].\nVirol J. 2009 Jan 20;6:8.

This procedure is shown to be most effective in infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis in the phase of resorption of infiltrates and/or closure of decay cavities. The efficiency is determined by the rapid positive changes in a tuberculous process, which appear as a rapider regression of tuberculous inflammation, causing small residual changes. This procedure may be used to prevent recurrences and exacerbations of pulmonary tuberculosis.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 20, 2009\n14) Peppermint may be clinically effective in alleviating the nasal symptoms of allergic rhinitis\nEffects of peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) extracts on experimental allergic rhinitis in rats.\nBiol Pharm Bull. 2001 Jan;24(1):92-5. PMID: 11201253\nT Inoue, Y Sugimoto, H Masuda, C Kamei\nThe present study was carried out to clarify the effects of extracts of the leaves of Mentha piperita L. on experimental allergic rhinitis. The 50% EtOH extract of peppermint inhibited histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells induced by compound 48/80. The effect was dose-dependent and significant inhibition was observed at a concentration of 3 microg/ml. In addition, the 50% EtOH eluate separated from the 50% EtOH extract of peppermint by column chromatography (DIAION HP-20) was also effective in inhibiting histamine release at a concentration of 1 microg/ml. Nasal symptoms, sneezing and nasal rubbing induced by antigen challenge in actively sensitized rats were inhibited by oral administration of the 50% EtOH eluate. Significant inhibition of sneezing and nasal rubbing was observed at doses of 300 and 1000 mg/kg, p.o., respectively. Furthermore, the 50% EtOH eluate inhibited dye leakage into the nasal cavity of rats induced by antigen in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggested that extracts of Mentha piperita L. may be clinically effective in alleviating the nasal symptoms of allergic rhinitis.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2001\n15) Peppermint oil has been used to successfully treat post-herpetic neuralgia\nA novel treatment of postherpetic neuralgia using peppermint oil.\nClin J Pain. 2002 May-Jun;18(3):200-2 PMID: 12048423\nSimon J Davies, Louise M Harding, Andrew P Baranowski\nArticle Published Date : May 01, 2002\nStudy Type : Human: Case Report\n16) The aroma of peppermint enhances memory and increases alertness in human subjects\nModulation of cognitive performance and mood by aromas of peppermint and ylang-ylang.\nNutr Cancer. 2006;55(1):53-62.

Prior to the study, patients were randomly assigned into four groups to receive M. spicata or M.× piperita. Statistical analysis included the χ(2) test, relative risk, and Student’s t-test. Fifty courses were analysed for each group that met our eligibility criteria. The treatment and placebo groups applied essential oils of M. spicata, M. × piperita, or a placebo, while the control group continued with their previous antiemetic regimen. Patients or guardians recorded the number of emetic events, the intensity of nausea over 20 h of chemotherapy, as well as any possible adverse effects that occurred during this time.\nRESULTS: There was a significant reduction in the intensity and number of emetic events in the first 24 h with M. spicata and M.× piperita in both treatment groups (p<0.05) when compared with the control and no adverse effects were reported. The cost of treatment was also reduced when essential oils were used.\nCONCLUSION: M. spicata or M.× piperita essential oils are safe and effective for antiemetic treatment in patients, as well as being cost effective.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2012\n18) Peppermint oil exhibits antiviral activity against herpes simplex viruses type 1 and 2, including an acyclovirresistant strain of HSV-1\nVirucidal effect of peppermint oil on the enveloped viruses herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 in vitro.\nPhytomedicine. 2003;10(6-7):504-10. PMID: 13678235\nA Schuhmacher, J Reichling, P Schnitzler\nThe virucidal effect of peppermint oil, the essential oil of Mentha piperita, against herpes simplex virus was examined. The inhibitory activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) was tested in vitro on RC-37 cells using a plaque reduction assay. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of peppermint oil for herpes simplex virus plaque formation was determined at 0.002% and 0.0008% for HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively. Peppermint oil exhibited high levels of virucidal activity against HSV-1 and HSV-2 in viral suspension tests. At noncytotoxic concentrations of the oil, plaque formation was significantly reduced by 82% and 92% for HSV-1 and HSV-2, respectively. Higher concentrations of peppermint oil reduced viral titers of both herpesviruses by more than 90%. A clearly time-dependent activity could be demonstrated, after 3 h of incubation of herpes simplex virus with peppermint oil an antiviral activity of about 99% could be demonstrated. In order to determine the mode of antiviral action of the essential oil, peppermint oil was added at different times to the cells or viruses during infection. Both herpesviruses were significantly inhibited when herpes simplex virus was pretreated with the essential oil prior to adsorption. These results indicate that peppermint oil affected the virus before adsorption, but not after penetration into the host cell. Thus this essential oil is capable to exert a direct virucidal effect on HSV. Peppermint oil is also active against an acyclovir resistant strain of HSV-1 (HSV-1-ACV(res)), plaque formation was significantly reduced by 99%. Considering the lipophilic nature of the oil which enables it to penetrate the skin, peppermint oil might be suitable for topical therapeutic use as virucidal agent in recurrent herpes infection.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2003\n19) Menthol, a naturally occurring compound from peppermint oil, exhibits some anti-prostate cancer activity\nMenthol regulates TRPM8-independent processes in PC-3 prostate cancer cells.\nBiochim Biophys Acta. 2007 Apr;1770(4):659-65.

We thus investigated the cellular responses of prostate cancer cells to menthol. Here we found that menthol increases [Ca(2+)](i) via Ca(2+) influx mechanism(s) independent of TRPM8 in PC-3 cells. We demonstrated that menthol induces cell death at supramillimolar concentrations in PC-3 cells and the cell death is not suppressed by low extracellular Ca(2+) condition which indicates that menthol-induced cell death is not associated with Ca(2+) influx pathways. In addition, we showed that menthol increases a phosphorylated form of c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in PC-3 cells through TRPM8-independent mechanisms. Thus, our data indicate that there is an apparent lack of causality between TRPM8 activation and menthol-induced cell death and that menthol can regulate TRPM8-independent Ca(2+)-transport and cellular processes.\nArticle Published Date : Apr 01, 2007\n20.

Our present study aimed to characterize and semi-quantify the radiation-induced apoptosis in CNS and the activity of Mentha extracts as neuron-protective agent. Our results through flow cytometry exhibited the significant disturbance and arrest in cell cycle in % of M1: SubG1 phase, M2: G0/1 phase of diploid cycle, M3: S phase and M4: G2/M phase of cell cycle in brain tissue (p < 0.05). Significant increase in % of apoptosis and P53 protein expression as apoptotic biomarkers were coincided with significant decrease in Bcl(2) as an anti-apoptotic marker. The biochemical analysis recorded a significant decrease in the levels of reduced glutathione, superoxide dismutase, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid contents. Moreover, numerous histopathological alterations were detected in brain tissues of gamma irradiated mice such as signs of chromatolysis in pyramidal cells of cortex, nuclear vacuolation, numerous apoptotic cell, and neural degeneration. On the other hand, gamma irradiated mice pretreated with Mentha extract showed largely an improvement in all the above tested parameters through a homeostatic state for the content of brain apoptosis and stabilization of DNA cycle with a distinct improvement in cell cycle analysis and antioxidant defense system. Furthermore, the aforementioned effects of Mentha extracts through down-regulation of P53 expression and up-regulation of Bcl(2) domain protected brain structure from extensive damage. Therefore, Mentha extract seems to have a significant role to ameliorate the neuronal injury induced by gammairradiation.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2012\n21) Peppermint protects against radiation-induced testicular damage\nProtection against radiation-induced testicular damage in Swiss albino mice by Mentha piperita (Linn.).\nBasic Clin Pharmacol Toxicol. 2009 Apr;104(4):329-34.

Animals (Male Swiss albino mice) were given M. piperita leaf extract orally (1 g/kg body weight/day) for three consecutive days before radiation exposure (8 Gy gamma-radiation). Mice were autopsied at 1, 3, 7, 14, and 30 days after irradiation to evaluate the radiomodulatory effect in terms of histological alterations, lipid peroxidation, and acid and alkaline phosphatases levels in testis. Radiation treatment showed reduction in the testis weight during all days of observation, however, in the M. piperita leaf extract-pretreated irradiated group there was a significant increase in testis weight. Radiation treatment induced moderate to severe testicular atrophy with degeneration of germ cells in seminiferous tubules. The tubules were shrunken and greatly depleted of germ cells. Sertoli cells with few germ cells were observed in the lumen. However, animals pre-treated with M. piperita leaf extract and exposed to radiation showed normal testicular morphology with regular arrangement of germ cells and slight degeneration of seminiferous epithelium. Significant decreases in the lipid peroxidation and acid phosphatase level and increase in level of alkaline phosphatase were observed in testis. The M. piperita leaf extract showed high amount of phenolic content, flavonoids content and flavonols. The results of the present study suggest that M. piperita has a significant radioprotective effect and the amount of phenolic compounds, the content of flavonoids and flavonols of M. piperita leaf extract may be held responsible for radioprotective effect due to their antioxidant and radical scavenging activity.\nArticle Published Date : Apr 01, 2009\n22) Extracts from plants in the Lamiacea family inhibit HSV-1, HSV-2 and acyclovir-resistant strains of HSV-1\nAntiviral effect of aqueous extracts from species of the Lamiaceae family against Herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 in vitro.\nPlanta Med. 2006 Dec;72(15):1378-82.

PMID: 17091431\nSilke Nolkemper, Jürgen Reichling, Florian C Stintzing, Reinhold Carle, Paul Schnitzler\nAqueous extracts from species of the Lamiaceae family were examined for their antiviral activity against Herpes simplex virus (HSV). Extracts from lemon balm (Melissa officinalis), peppermint (Mentha x piperita), prunella (Prunella vulgaris), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), sage (Salvia officinalis) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) were screened. Their inhibitory activity against Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), type 2 (HSV-2) and an acyclovir-resistant strain of HSV-1 (ACV (res)) was tested in vitro on RC-37 cells in a plaque reduction assay. The 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC (50)) of the extracts for HSV plaque formation were determined in dose-response studies. All test compounds showed a high antiviral activity against HSV-1, HSV-2 and ACV (res). In order to identify the mode of antiviral action, the extracts were added to the cells or viruses at different stages of infection. Both types of Herpes virus including ACV (res) were considerably neutralized after treatment with the extracts prior to infection. At maximum non-cytotoxic concentrations of the extracts, plaque formation was significantly reduced by > 90% for HSV-1 and HSV-2 and > 85% for ACV (res). In time-response studies over a period of 2 hours, a clearly time-dependent activity was demonstrated. These results indicate that the extracts affect HSV before adsorption, but have no effect on the intracellular virus replication. Therefore, the extracts exert their antiviral effect on free HSV and offer a chance to use them for topical therapeutic application against recurrent HERPES infections.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 01, 2006\n23) Peppermint oil exhibits antiviral activity against herpes simplex viruses type 1 and 2, including an acyclovir resistant strain of HSV-1\nVirucidal effect of peppermint oil on the enveloped viruses herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 in vitro.\nPhytomedicine. 2003;10(6-7):504-10.

The minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBC) of the M. piperita and R. officinalis oils and chlorhexidine were (6000, 2000, 8000 ppm) and (1000, 4000, 1000 ppm) for S. mutans and S. pyogenes, respectively. The decimal reduction time (D) of S. mutans exposed to the oils at their MBC levels was 2.8 min while chlorhexidine showed a longer time. The D values of S. pyogenes on exposure to the MBC levels of M. piperita and R. officinalis oils and of chlorhexidine were 2.14, 4.28 and 2.8 min, indicating a higher efficacy of M. piperita oil. Biofilm formation was performed by growing S. mutans culture with and without essential oils in LB medium in polystyrene tubes. In vitro biofilm inhibitory properties were in the order M. piperita>R. officinalis>chlorhexidine. In vivo experiments on the antibiofilm properties revealed that all concentrations of the oils were significantly (p<0.001) more effective than chlorhexidine.

Gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis led to the identification of 26 and 32 compounds in the essential oils of M. piperita and C. cyminum, respectively. Minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBC) of the oils and chlorhexidine and microbial decimal reduction time (D value) were determined. Antibacterial and in vivo biofilm preventive efficacies of all the concentrations of M. piperita oil were significantly (p<0.001) higher. The biofilm inhibitory properties in planktonic cultures were in M. piperita>chlorhexidine>C. cyminum order. In vivo experiments conducted on male and female volunteers who brushed with essential oil blended toothpastes indicated that lower concentrations of the oils, in particular the M. piperita oil, were significantly higher (p<0.001) and effective during the course of the study as compared to chlorhexidine. In conclusion, there may be a potential role for essential oils in the development of novel anticaries treatments.\nArticle Published Date : Mar 20, 2008\n26) The Complete Illustrated Book of Herbs, Alex Frampton, The Reader’s Digest Association, 2009\n27) A.

There are many nutritional, skin care and hair care products that have coconut oil or coconut powder as an active ingredient in their formulations. There is, unfortunately, some of these products on the market that use processed refined coconut oil. Refined, chemically processed coconut oil is no match to cold-pressed virgin (pure) coconut oil when it comes to the health benefits for YOUR body, skin and hair.\nCold-Pressed Virgin coconut oil means pure, unrefined coconut oil which is extracted from cold pressing of coconut kernels. Cold pressing involves pressing and grinding process at lower temperatures to retain the original taste, aroma and nutritional value. Most of the coconut oil available these days are refined ones. Refining process involves bleaching and addition of added artificial fragrances. This is the reason that most of the coconut oils available these days are colorless and don’t have that essence of pure coconut oil. The Nutritional content of these refined coconut oils is far less than virgin coconut oil. Refined coconut oil lacks sweet taste, smell and other vital health benefits.\nIs Coconut oil healthy or Is It Poison?\nThere is a general conception that SATURATED FATS are not good to eat because they would add calories which in turn will make you overweight, less energetic and cause sclerotic plaque in the arteries leading to heart disease. This is why you see a lot of processed foods highlighting ZERO SATURATED FATS or ZERO TRANS FATS on their packaging. Trans fats or the crossing linking of hydrogen ions are BAD for YOU but are SATURATED FATS highs in coconut oil BAD for you also and does coconut oil contain trans fats?\nA recent lecture by a Harvard professor calling coconut oil “pure poison” has gone viral on YouTube, nearing 1 million views on Wednesday.\nIn her talk titled “ Coconut oil and other nutritional errors ,” Karin Michels , who is an adjunct professor of epidemiology at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, says coconut oil is not healthy, calling it “poison” at least three times in the widely-circulated video.\nDr. Michels states, “I can only warn you urgently about coconut oil,” she says. “This is one of the worst foods you can eat.”\nObjective Science vs Subjective Science\n1) Japanese eat very little fat and have fewer heart attacks than Americans\n2) Mexicans eat a lot of fat and have fewer heart attacks than Americans\n3) Chinese drink very little red wine and have fewer heart attacks than Americans\n4) Italians drink a lot of red wine and have fewer heart attacks than Americans\n5) Germans drink a lot of beer and eat sausage but suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans\nEat and drink whatever you like being American is what kills you!\nThis conclusion sounds outrageous but this is what we are dealing with when we understand that the sciences are NOT objective BUT subjective based upon the investigators subjective conclusions.\nThe truth is, there is no way of truly knowing what objectivity is, because we all have our subjective way of experiencing and interpreting the world.\nThis line of thinking is what led Rene Descarte to doubt everything. But, the only thing he knew he could not doubt was that he was doubting. Hence, his famous pronouncement, “I think, therefore I am.” A better translation would’ve been, I doubt, therefore I know I am because I know it is me that is doubting!\nNormal and Low Cholesterol Causes Coronary Heart Disease and Heart Attacks\nThe largest and longest study on saturated fats and hyper-cholesterol causing coronary heart disease is called the Framingham study. This landmark study started in the 50’s showing that a high-fat diet does NOT cause heart disease! In fact, the higher the cholesterol the lower the risk of coronary heart disease showing the protective benefits of high cholesterol. It is important to note that 80 percent of all people developing coronary heart disease and are at a risk for a heart attack have normal or low cholesterol. The following is the graphic results of this HUGE study that has been kept a secret from the population Worldwide.\nMaren also lost over 70 pounds of acidic bound fat following an alkaline lifestyle and diet, including liberal amounts of coconut oil.\nThe Real Truth About Coconut Oil!\nCoconut oil is a medium chain saturated fatty acid; it is not a long chain saturated fatty acid like various fatty meats, butter, cheese, various seed oils etc. Medium chain saturated fatty acids (MCSFAs) are also known as medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). Similarly, long chain saturated fatty acids (LCFAs) are known as long chain triglycerides (LCTs).\nBenefits of MCSFAs over LCSFAs\nUnlike LCSFAs, MCSFAs break down easily putting a lesser burden on your alimentary canal.\nMCSFAs permeate easily through cell membranes and hence are easily absorbed by your body.\nMCSFAs are transferred directly to your liver from the small and large intestines. Hence, they are readily converted into energy and are not stored as fats (as in case of LCSFAs)\nMCSFAs can be metabolized at a faster rate than LCSFAs.\nHence, coconut oil is a medium chain saturated fatty acid and is surely one of those saturated fats which is healthful NOT harmful and surely NOT poisonous!\nCoconut oil as an anti-inflammatory:\nBenefits of oral consumption of Coconut Oil\nCoconut oil contains a fatty acid known as lauric acid. Lauric acid is commonly found in breast milk (this is why coconut oil is an active ingredient in various baby care products). This lauric acid has anti-fungal, anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties. Coconut oil is considered a natural immunity booster for ages.\nMCSFAs present in coconut oil transforms or destroys various harmful viruses, bacteria, fungi present in your body.\nMCSFAs present in coconut oil stimulates body metabolism process which in turn brings back all the natural mechanisms like body detoxification, cells repair and growth back on track eventually enhancing your body immunity\nCoconut oil works amazingly well in dealing with leaky gut syndrome (and fat malabsorption) because MCSFAs present in coconut oil are easily absorbed by your body.\nCoconut oil helps in weight loss because MCSFAs present in coconut oil goes straight from the small and large intestines to liver where they are converted into energy increasing your energy level. Due to this increased energy level, you would feel satisfied (fuller) and a disciplined diet program, like the pH Miracle diet would be easier for you.\nCoconut oil for skin and hair: Benefits of topical application\nTopical application of coconut oil is not a new concept. Coconut oil can moisturize your scalp and your body amazingly well. Psoriasis flakes are very dry in nature and quite itchy as well, particularly the scalp psoriasis. Hence, using coconut oil on your scalp can be a soothing experience for you. Pleasing smell of coconut oil is a great news for those who are looking for some natural topical alternatives to those steroids based topical ointments. Coconut oil’s pleasant smell and non sticky nature readily make it an amazing choice for topical application on the skin.\nVirgin coconut oil is consumed orally as well as applied on skin to take care of psoriasis.\nOral consumption of coconut oil is possible in two ways:\n1. Consuming it as a whole – Take one teaspoonful of virgin coconut oil twice a day, in the morning before breakfast and at night before sleep. You should not eat or drink anything before and after taking it for at least 1 hour to get the best benefits.\n2. As an alternative to cooking oil/butter – Thanks to the heat withstanding properties of coconut oil, it can be used as a regular cooking oil in baking, cooking and frying. You can also use it as a spread on bread or as salad dressing.\n3. Topical application of coconut oil: Generally, it is advised to apply coconut oil on your skin after taking bath/shower and properly massage it to make sure it is well absorbed by the body. Coconut oil is absorbed by the body readily. Do not forget to massage coconut oil on your scalp also. It is amazingly good for scalp psoriasis.\nWhere to Buy the Best Cold-Pressed Organic Virgin Coconut oil\nAvailability of virgin coconut oil in general departmental stores is suspicious. Always buy cold-pressed organic virgin coconut oil by checking the packing label. It should clearly mention that it is cold pressed and unrefined and organic. You can purchase virgin coconut oil from various health stores or online shopping portals like at: http://www.ijuicenow.com\nGood to know: Benefits of Coconut Water\nApart from coconut oil, coconut water is also fortified with a lot of health benefits. Drinking coconut water can improve digestion, reduces acid reflux and is a rich source of various electrolytes (calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium and phosphorus). Drinking coconut water has numerous health benefits with almost no side effects. The recommended dosage is 15-20 ounces of coconut water a day.\n78 HUMAN HEALTH BENEFITS and USES FOR COCONUT OIL! and GROWING! (Check back daily on this article for updates on the scientific benefits of COCONUT OIL)\n1. Use Coconut Oil with instead of vegetable or seed oils. Coconut oil naturally has a high temperature point, is highly stable due to its high saturated fat content, and imparts very little “coconut” flavor to your foods.\n2. In your Coconut oil instead of dairy creamer. Yes – that’s right, use coconut oil, not cows milk which is high in lactose, a sugar that may cause cancer!\n3. To wash your face with Coconut oil instead of soap. It sounds strange, but oil washes impurities out better than soap and it doesn’t dry your skin! It takes a week to get use to it – the skin on your face is so use to being dried out by soap and facial cleansers that it’s producing extra oil to counteract it. So, it’ll take a little bit of time for your skin to stop producing all that extra oil.\n4. Brush your teeth with Coconut Oil. Coconut oil has many antimicrobial properties which can make it good for eliminating or transforming bacteria and yeast in your mouth. To make your own toothpaste, simply add 2 tablespoons of coconut oil (melt it in surgical stainless steel cookware very briefly so that it’s softened) to 2-3 tablespoons of pHour salts – http://www.phoreveryoung.com . Mix to form a paste and spread on your toothbrush. (The pHour Salts will whitens your teeth because of the sodium and potassium bicarbonate).\n5. Coconut oil pulling. This is similar to the previous use in that it helps with oral hygiene. Oil pulling has long been a popular practice in India and with Ayurvedic practitioners. It involves swishing oil around your mouth for 20 minutes before spitting it out. The idea behind the practice is to remove bacteria and yeast from your teeth and mouth, which can then alleviate various other health challenges (including arthritis and fatigue).\n6. Coconut oil as a body moisturizer. Our skin absorbs whatever creams we put on it (think of all the topical pain relief medications that work because it gets absorbed through our skin). So, instead of pumping random chemicals from your moisturizers into your skin, many people choose to use coconut oil instead. You can use it at the end of your shower so that it’s more easily absorbed and before your skin has had a chance to dry.\n7. Coconut oil as a sun-screen. This is not a high SPF sunscreen, but a 2013 study found that coconut oil absorbs 20% in the UVB region (this equates to something under SPF 10 –). So definitely use coconut oil and stay alkaline so the skin pH is over 7.2 for preventing sun burn.\n8. Coconut oil as a hair conditioner. Use coconut oil as a hair conditioner, or use iJuice Conditioner and Shampoo which has a coconut base – http://www.ijuicenow.com . You don’t need much and just rub it into the scalp and hair.\n9. Coconut as a supplement. Using iJuice coconut oil as a supplement can help with weight loss and increasing your “HDL” cholesterol while lowering your “LDL” cholesterol.\n10. Coconut oil as a massage oil. Coconut oil doesn’t get absorbed into your skin quickly, which ensures your skin stays slippery for longer period of time thereby making it perfect for you to enjoy a long and relaxing massage!\n11. Coconut oil for reducing scars.\n12. Coconut oil for treating lice. There have been several studies showing it’ efficacy.\n13. Coconut oil to soften cracked heels .\n14. Coconut oil as a hair serum. Use it to smooth away any frizz just like you would use hair serum for.\n15. Coconut oil as a buttery spread. Because coconut oil is solid at room temperature, it’s usually at a perfect spread consistency when heated just a little. It’s perfect for spreading on some Paleo bread .\n16. Coconut oil to prevent and treat fungal infections. It’s an easy and cheap cure for things like Athlete’s Foot.\n17. Coconut oil as a glaze. When cold, coconut oil becomes solid very quickly. This gives it a white glaze appearance. Perfect to top onto chilled desserts !\n18. Coconut oil to season cast iron pans . Instead of using rancid vegetable and seed oils, try using coconut oil.\n19. Coconut oil to improve Parkinson’s disease .\n20. Coconut oil to condition wooden cutting boards .\n21. Coconut oil to bake with instead of butter. Coconut oil can be used as a replacement for butter in a lot of recipes.\n22. Coconut oil as an easy way to make coconut butter. Here’s my recipe for coconut butter.\n23. As an eye make-up remover. This is my personal favorite – why use chemicals in the delicate areas around your eyes when coconut oil works just as well!\n24. As a natural remedy for diaper rash .\n25. To add to your protein shake .\n26. To relieve itching from bug bites .\n27. To help lower high blood pressure. A study found that coconut oil reduced blood pressure in rats.\n28. To lessen the damaging effects of dementia .\n29. To heal wounds. A study on rats found extra virgin coconut oil to speed up the healing process (when compared to not using any oil).\n30. To reduce puffiness around the eyes . Don’t forget that eating an anti-inflammatory diet will also help with this!\n31. As a lip balm. And it tastes great too.\n32. To enhance nutrient absorption. Many nutrients are fat-soluble, which means that your body cannot absorb them if there’s not enough fat in what you eat. Coconut oil has been shown to be better than several other oils at this for certain nutrients.\n35. To improve your memory. A 2004 study found coconut oil to improve cognitive functions in Alzheimer patients.\n36. To make lotion bars. One of my favorite lotion bars from a local honey producer contains just 3 ingredients: beeswax, coconut oil, and olive oil.\n37. To make soap , shampoo and hair conditioner .\n38.

Rub a little bit up your nose to stop it from drying out in the winter time when your heating is on.\n54. To fuel your workouts. Yes, fat is a fuel, and a lot of your body runs on saturated fats (which is the main fat in coconut oil).\n55. To build more muscle. Body builders have long used MCT oil (a component of coconut oil) to help them build muscle.\n56. As a testosterone booster.\n57. As first aid. It’s great to put on cuts and scrapes after washing the wound.\n58. To kill off candida yeast growth.\n59. To help cure small intestinal bacterial overgrowth.\n60. To decrease an insulin spike. It takes longer for your body to digest fats, and so any carbohydrates you eat with the fats will take longer to digest thereby lessening any spikes in your insulin.\n61. To stimulate your thyroid .\n62. To burn fat around your stomach. A 2009 study concluded that: “It appears that dietetic supplementation with coconut oil…seems to promote a reduction in abdominal obesity.”\n63. To remove chewing gum from hair .

Epub 2015 Nov 1. PMID: 26545671\nDiuli A Cardoso, Annie S B Moreira, Glaucia M M de Oliveira, Ronir Raggio Luiz, Glorimar Rosa\nINTRODUCTION: saturated fat restriction has been recommended for coronary arterial disease, but the role of coconut oil (Cocos nucifera L.) extra virgin, lauric acid source in the management of lipid profile remains unclear.\nOBJECTIVE: to evaluate the effect of nutritional treatment associated with the consumption of extra virgin coconut oil in anthropometric parameters and lipid profile.\nMETHODS: we conducted a longitudinal study of 116 adults of both sexes presenting CAD. Patients were followed in two stages: the first stage (basal-3 months), intensive nutritional treatment. In the second stage (3-6 months), the subjects were divided into two groups: diet group associated with extra virgin coconut oil consumption (GDOC) and diet group (DG). Held monthly anthropometric measurements: body mass, waist circumference (WC), neck circumference (PP), body mass index (BMI). Gauged to collected blood pressure and blood samples were fasted for 12 hours, for total cholesterol analysis and fractions apoproteins (Apo A-1 and B), glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), insulin (I). Comparing the averages at the beginning and end of the study employing the paired Student t-independent. And set the diastolic blood pressure by BMI using ANOVA. Analyses were performed using the SPSS statistical package, being significant p<0.05.\nRESULTS: the mean age of the population was 62.4± 7.7 years, 63.2% male, 70% elderly, 77.6% infarcted, 52.6% with angina, hypertension and dyslipidemia 100%. In the first stage the nutritional treatment reduced body weight, WC, BMI and PP and insulin concentrations, HbA1C, HOMA-IR and QUICK, without changing the other parameters. In the second stage of the study, it was observed that the GDOC maintained the reduction of body mass, BMI, WC, with a significant difference between groups for DC (-2.1 ± 2,7 cm; p<0.01). In addition, there was an increase in HDL-C concentrations, Apo A, with significant difference in GD, only for HDL-C (3.1± 7.4 mg/dL; p = 0.02).\nCONCLUSION: it was observed that the nutritional treatment associated with extra virgin coconut oil consumption reduced the CC and increased HDL-C levels in patients with CAD.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2014\n2. Although permethrin lotion is still effective for some people, coconut and anise spray can be a significantly more effective alternative treatment\nClinical trial showing superiority of a coconut and anise spray over permethrin 0.43% lotion for head louse infestation, ISRCTN96469780.\nEur J Pediatr. 2010 Jan ;169(1):55-62. Epub 2009 Apr 3. PMID: 19343362\nIan F Burgess, Elizabeth R Brunton, Nazma A Burgess\nPermethrin is the most widely used pediculicide, but evidence of resistance from several countries and anecdotal reports from Germany suggest that permethrin lotion is now less effective. We designed a randomized, controlled, parallel group trial involving 100 participants with active head louse infestation to investigate the activity of a coconut and anise spray and to see whether permethrin lotion is still effective, using two applications of product 9 days apart. The spray was significantly more successful (41/50, 82.0%) cures compared with permethrin (21/50, 42.0%; p<0.0001, difference 40.0%, 95% confidence interval of 22.5% to 57.5%). Per-protocol success was 83.3% and 44.7%, respectively. Thirty-three people reported irritant reactions following alcohol contact with excoriated skin. We concluded that, although permethrin lotion is still effective for some people, the coconut and anise spray can be a significantly more effective alternative treatment.\nArticle Published Date: Jan 01, 2010\n3. Coconut oil was found to be beneficial in female patients with Alzheimer’s dementia\n[COCONUT OIL: NON-ALTERNATIVE DRUG TREATMENT AGAINST ALZHEIME´S DISEASE]\nNutr Hosp. 2015 ;32(6):2822-7.

PMID: 26667739\nIván Hu Yang, Jose Enrique De la Rubia Ortí, Pablo Selvi Sabater, Sandra Sancho Castillo, Mariano Julián Rochina, Noemí Manresa Ramón, Inmaculada Montoya-Castilla\nBACKGROUND: Alzheimer’s dementia is the most prevalent nowadays. As for treatment, there is no definitive cure drug, thus new therapies are needed. In this regard the medium chain triglycerides are a direct source of cellular energy and can be a nonpharmacological alternative to the neuronal death for lack of it, that occurs in Alzheimer patients.\nOBJECTIVE: to evaluate the impact of coconut oil in the development of Alzheimer’s dementia, in any degree of dementia. Also determine whether this improvement influences within variables such as sex and suffering or not Type II Diabetes Mellitus.\nMATERIAL AND METHODS: a prospective study was conducted in patients with Alzheimer’s dementia, with a control and an intervention group which was administered 40 ml/day of extra virgin coconut oil. The parameters evaluated were the mini test scores Lobo cognitive test, pre and post intervention in both groups.\nRESULTS: it was observed in subjects taking the product, a statistically significant increase in test score MECWOLF and therefore an improvement in cognitive status, improving especially women’s, those without diabetes mellitus type II, and severe patients.\nCONCLUSION: this study, although preliminary, demonstrated the positive influence of coconut oil at the cognitive level of patients with Alzheimer’s, this improvement being dependent on sex, presence or absence of diabetes and degree of dementia.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 31, 2014\n4.

PMID: 30056419\nJosé Enrique de la Rubia Ortí, Mar Rsquo Ia Pilar García-Pardo, Eraci Drehmer, David Sancho Cantus, Mariano Julián Rochina, Maria Asunción Aguilar Calpe, Iván Hu Yang\nBACKGROUND: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder (mainly in women), and new therapies are needed. In this way, ketone bodies are a direct source of cellular energy and can be obtained from coconut oil, postulating that coconut oil could be a new non-pharmacological alternative in AD patients.\nOBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to detect changes in the main cognitive functions of patients with AD after following a coconut oil enriched Mediterranean diet, and to determine whether there are differences in function of stage or sex.\nMETHODS: A prospective, longitudinal, qualitative, analytic, experimental study was carried out in 44 patients with AD, who were randomly divided into two homogenous groups of 22 patients each: an experimental group of patients who followed a coconut oil enriched Mediterranean diet for 21 days and a control group. In order to determine the cognitive changes after the intervention, we carried out the 7 Minute Screen, which analyses temporal orientation, visuospatial and visuoconstructive abilities, and semantic and episodic memory.\nRESULTS: After intervention with coconut oil, improvements in episodic, temporal orientation, and semantic memory were observed, and it seems that the positive effect is more evident in women with mild-moderate state, although other improvements in males and severe state were also shown.\nCONCLUSIONS: The isocaloric coconut oil enriched Mediterranean diet seems to improve cognitive functions in patients with AD, with differences according to patient sex and degree of severity of the disease, although more studies in this line are needed.\nArticle Published Date : Jul 19, 2018\n6.

The randomised, double-blind, clinical trial involved 40 women aged 20-40 years. Groups received daily dietary supplements comprising 30 mL of either soy bean oil (group S; n = 20) or coconut oil (group C; n = 20) over a 12-week period, during which all subjects were instructed to follow a balanced hypocaloric diet and to walk for 50 min per day. Data were collected 1 week before (T1) and 1 week after (T2) dietary intervention. Energy intake and amount of carbohydrate ingested by both groups diminished over the trial, whereas the consumption of protein and fibre increased and lipid ingestion remained unchanged. At T1 there were no differences in biochemical or anthropometric characteristics between the groups, whereas at T2 group C presented a higher level of HDL (48.7 +/- 2.4 vs. 45.00 +/- 5.6; P = 0.01) and a lower LDL:HDL ratio (2.41 +/- 0.8 vs. 3.1 +/- 0.8; P = 0.04). Reductions in BMI were observed in both groups at T2 (P < 0.05), but only group C exhibited a reduction in WC (P = 0.005). Group S presented an increase (P < 0.05) in total cholesterol, LDL and LDL:HDL ratio, whilst HDL diminished (P = 0.03). Such alterations were not observed in group C. It appears that dietetic supplementation with coconut oil does not cause dyslipidemia and seems to promote a reduction in abdominal obesity.\nArticle Published Date: July 01, 2009\n7.

PMID: 25163649\nKim Sooi Law, Nizuwan Azman, Eshaifol Azam Omar, Muhammad Yusri Musa, Narazah Mohd Yusoff, Siti Amrah Sulaiman, Nik Hazlina Nik Hussain\nBACKGROUND: Breast cancer is the most common cancer amongst Malaysian women. Both the disease and its treatment can disrupt the lives of the woman and adversely affect all aspects of life and thus can alter a woman’s quality of life. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on the quality of life (QOL) of patients diagnosed with breast cancer.\nRESULTS: The mean age of breast cancer patients was 50.2 (SD = 13.5) years. There were significant mean score differences for functioning and global QOL between groups (α < 0.01). The intervention group also had better scores for symptoms including fatigue, dyspnea, sleep difficulties, and loss of appetite compared to the control group. Although there are deteriorations for sexual enjoyment, the intervention group exhibited improvement in breast functioning and symptom scores for body image, sexual function, future perspective, breast symptoms, and systemic therapy side effects.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 31, 2013\n8. Coconut oil may have therapeutic value in treating acute aluminium phosphide poisoning\nSuccessful treatment of acute aluminium phosphide poisoning: possible benefit of coconut oil.\nHum Exp Toxicol. 2005 Apr;24(4):215-8.

It produces phosphine gas, which is a mitochondrial poison. Unfortunately, there is no known antidote for aluminium phosphide intoxication, but our recent experience with a case showed that rapid prevention of absorption by coconut oil might be helpful. In the present case, we used the same protocol in a 28-year-old man who had ingested a lethal amount (12 g) of aluminium phosphide with suicidal intent and was admitted to hospital approximately 6 hours postingestion. The patient had signs and symptoms of severe toxicity, and his clinical course included metabolic acidosis and liver dysfunction. Treatment consisted of gastric lavage with potassium permanganate solution, oral administration of charcoal and sorbitol suspension, intravenous administration of sodium bicarbonate, magnesium sulphate and calcium gluconate, and oral administration of sodium bicarbonate and coconut oil. Conservative and supportive therapy in the Intensive Care Unit was also provided. The patient survived following rapid treatment and supportive care. It is concluded that coconut oil has a positive clinical significance and can be added to the treatment protocol of acute aluminium phosphide poisoning in humans.\nArticle Published Date: Apr 01, 2005\nStudy Type: Human: Case Report\n9. Virgin coconut oil is superior to mineral oil in treating atopic dermatitis in a pediatric population.\nThe effect of topical virgin coconut oil on SCORAD index, transepidermal water loss, and skin capacitance in mild to moderate pediatric atopic dermatitis: a randomized, double-blind, clinical trial.\nMara Therese Padilla Evangelista, Flordeliz Abad-Casintahan, Lillian Lopez-Villafuerte\nDepartment of Dermatology, Jose R. Reyes Memorial Medical Center, Manila, Philippines.\nAtopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin disease characterized by defects in the epidermal barrier function and cutaneous inflammation, in which transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is increased and the ability of the stratum corneum to hold water is impaired, causing decreased skin capacitance and hydration. This study investigated the effects of topical virgin coconut oil (VCO) and mineral oil, respectively, on SCORAD (SCORing of Atopic Dermatitis) index values, TEWL, and skin capacitance in pediatric patients with mild to moderate AD, using a randomized controlled trial design in which participants and investigators were blinded to the treatments allocated. Patients were evaluated at baseline, and at 2, 4, and 8 weeks. A total of 117 patients were included in the analysis. Mean SCORAD indices decreased from baseline by 68.23% in the VCO group and by 38.13% in the mineral oil group (P < 0.001). In the VCO group, 47% (28/59) of patients achieved moderate improvement and 46% (27/59) showed an excellent response. In the mineral oil group, 34% (20/58) of patients showed moderate improvement and 19% (11/58) achieved excellent improvement. The VCO group achieved a post-treatment mean TEWL of 7.09 from a baseline mean of 26.68, whereas the mineral oil group demonstrated baseline and post-treatment TEWL values of 24.12 and 13.55, respectively. In the VCO group, post-treatment skin capacitance rose to 42.3 from a baseline mean of 32.0, whereas that in the mineral oil group increasedto 37.49 from a baseline mean of 31.31. Thus, among pediatric patients with mild to moderate AD, topical application of VCO for eight weeks was superior to that of mineral oil based on clinical (SCORAD) and instrumental (TEWL, skin capacitance) assessments.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 09, 2013\n10. Caprylic triglyceride impoved certain cases of mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease\nClick here to read the complete article.\nRetrospective case studies of the efficacy of caprylic triglyceride in mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease.\nSteven Douglas Maynard, Jeff Gelblum\nUnion Associated Physicians Clinic, Terre Haute, IN, USA ; Indiana University School of Medicine, Terre Haute, IN, USA.\nUnder normal conditions, the adult human brain is fueled primarily by glucose. A prominent feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is region-specific decreases in cerebral glucose metabolism. Ketone bodies are a group of compounds produced from fat stores during periods of low glucose availability that can provide an alternative to glucose for brain metabolism. Consumption of sufficient quantities of caprylic triglyceride (CT) increases plasma concentrations of ketone bodies and may be beneficial in conditions of compromised glucose metabolism, such as AD. The present study describes the use of CT in mild-to-moderate AD in routine clinical practice. Case records from eight patients with extensive monitoring of cognitive function using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and who had received CT for≥6 months were reviewed. All were outpatients aged ≥50 years, cared for in standard practice, had a diagnosis of probable AD of mild-to-moderate severity (MMSE 14-24), and had received CT for at least 6 months in addition to other approved pharmacotherapy for AD. Response to CT administration asmeasured by MMSE scores varied by patient. However, the rate of decline in MMSE scores appeared slower than previously published reports for patients treated with pharmacotherapy alone. Profiling of individual patients may provide insight regarding those most likely to benefit from addition of CT to currently approved AD pharmacotherapy.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 31, 2012\nStudy Type: Human: Case Report\n11.

Epub 2017 Dec 14. PMID: 29387131\nSurarong Chinwong, Dujrudee Chinwong, Ampica Mangklabruks\nThis open-label, randomized, controlled, crossover trial assessed the effect of daily virgin coconut oil (VCO) consumption on plasma lipoproteins levels and adverse events. The study population was 35 healthy Thai volunteers, aged 18-25. At entry, participants were randomly allocated to receive either (i) 15 mL VCO or (ii) 15 mL 2% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) solution (as control), twice daily, for 8 weeks. After 8 weeks, participants had an 8-week washout period and then crossed over to take the alternative regimen for 8 weeks. Plasma lipoproteins levels were measured in participants at baseline,week-8, week-16, and week-24 follow-up visits. Results. Of 32 volunteers with complete follow-up (16 males and 16 females), daily VCO intake significantly increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 5.72 mg/dL (p = 0.001) compared to the control regimen. However, there was no difference inthe change in total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglyceride levels between the two regimens. Mild diarrhea was reported by some volunteers when taking VCO, but no serious adverse events were reported. Conclusion. Daily consumption of 30 mL VCO in young healthy adults significantly increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. No major safety issues of taking VCO daily for 8 weeks were reported.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 31, 2016\n12. Coconut oil is superior to mineral oil in treating dry skin\nA randomized double-blind controlled trial comparing extra virgin coconut oil with mineral oil as a moisturizer for mild to moderate xerosis.\nDermatitis. 2004 Sep ;15(3):109-16. PMID: 15724344\nAnna Liza C Agero, Vermén M Verallo-Rowell\nDepartment of Dermatology, Makati Medical Center, Makati City, Philippines.\nBACKGROUND: Xerosis is a common skin condition (1) characterized by dry, rough, scaly, and itchy skin, (2) associated with a defect in skin barrier function, and (3) treated with moisturizers. People in the tropics have effectively used coconut oil as a traditional moisturizer for centuries. Recently, the oil also has been shown to have skin antiseptic effects. A moisturizer with antiseptic effects has value, but there are no clinical studies to document the efficacy and safety of coconut oil as a skin moisturizer.\nOBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the effectivity and safety of virgin coconut oil compared with mineral oil as a therapeutic moisturizer for mild to moderate xerosis.\nMETHODS: A randomized double-blind controlled clinical trial was conducted on mild to moderate xerosis in 34 patients with negative patch-test reactions to the test products. These patients were randomized to apply either coconut oil or mineral oil on the legs twice a day for 2 weeks. Quantitative outcome parameters for effectivity were measured at baseline and on each visit with a Corneometer CM825 to measure skin hydration and a Sebumeter SM 810 to measure skin lipids. For safety, transepidermal water loss (TEWL) was measured with a Tewameter TM210, and skin surface hydrogen ion concentration (pH) was measured with a Skin pH Meter PH900. Patients and the investigator separately evaluated, at baseline and at each weekly visit, skin symptoms of dryness, scaling, roughness, and pruritus by using a visual analogue scale and grading of xerosis.\nRESULTS: Coconut oil and mineral oil have comparable effects. Both oils showed effectivity through significant improvement in skin hydration and increase in skin surface lipid levels. Safety was demonstrated through no significant difference in TEWL and skin pH. Subjective grading of xerosis by the investigators and visual analogue scales used by the patients showed a general trend toward better (though not statistically evident) improvement with coconut oil than with mineral oil. Safety for both was further demonstrated by negative patch-test results prior to the study and by the absence of adverse reactions during the study.\nCONCLUSION: Coconut oil is as effective and safe as mineral oil when used as a moisturizer.\nArticle Published Date: Aug 31, 2004\n13. Oil pulling can be explored as a safe and effective alternative to Chlorhexidine\nThe Effect of Coconut Oil pulling on Streptococcus mutans Count in Saliva in Comparison with Chlorhexidine Mouthwash.\nJ Contemp Dent Pract. 2016 ;17(1):38-41. Epub 2016 Jan 1. PMID: 27084861\nMamta Kaushik, Pallavi Reddy, Roshni Sharma, Pooja Udameshi, Neha Mehra, Aditya Marwaha\nOBJECTIVES: Oil pulling is an age-old practice that has gained modern popularity in promoting oral and systemic health. The scientific verification for this practice is insufficient. Thus, this study evaluated the effect of coconut oil pulling on the count of Streptococcus mutans in saliva and to compare its efficacy with that of Chlorhexidine mouthwash: in vivo. The null hypothesis was that coconut oil pulling has no effect on the bacterial count in saliva.\nMATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized controlled study was planned and 60 subjects were selected. The subjects were divided into three groups, Group A:\nSTUDY GROUP: Oil pulling, Group B:\nSTUDY GROUP: Chlorhexidine, and Group C:\nCONTROL GROUP: Distilled water. Group A subjects rinsed mouth with 10 ml of coconut oil for 10 minutes. Group B subjects rinsed mouth with 5 ml Chlorhexidine mouthwash for 1 minute and Group C with 5 ml distilled water for 1 minute in the morning before brushing. Saliva samples were collected and cultured on 1st day and after 2 weeks from all subjects. Colonies were counted to compare the efficacy of coconut oil and Chlorhexidine with distilled water.\nRESULTS: Statistically significant reduction in S. mutans count was seen in both the coconut oil pulling and Chlorhexidine group.\nCONCLUSION: Oil pulling can be explored as a safe and effective alternative to Chlorhexidine.\nCLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Edible oil-pulling therapy is natural, safe and has no side effects. Hence, it can be considered as a preventive therapy at home to maintain oral hygiene.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 31, 2015\n14.

PMID: 29081890\nLaurie K Mischley, Richard C Lau, Rachel D Bennett\nOBJECTIVES: The goal of this study is to describe modifiable lifestyle variables associated with reduced rate of Parkinson’s disease (PD) progression.\nMETHODS: The patient-reported outcomes in PD (PRO-PD) were used as the primary outcome measure, and a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to assess dietary intake. In this cross-sectional analysis, regression analysis was performed on baseline data to identify the nutritional and pharmacological interventions associated with the rate of PD progression. All analyses were adjusted for age, gender, and years since diagnosis.\nRESULTS: 1053 individuals with self-reported idiopathic PD were available for analysis. Foods associated with the reduced rate of PD progression included fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, nuts and seeds, nonfried fish, olive oil, wine, coconut oil, fresh herbs, and spices (P<0.05). Foods associated with more rapid PD progression include canned fruits and vegetables, diet and nondiet soda, fried foods, beef, ice cream, yogurt, and cheese (P<0.05). Nutritional supplements coenzyme Q10 and fish oil were associated with reduced PD progression (P = 0.026 and P = 0.019, resp.), and iron supplementation was associated with faster progression (P = 0.022).\nDISCUSSION: These are the first data to provide evidence that targeted nutrition is associated with the rate of PD progression.\nArticle Published Date: Dec 31, 2016\n15.

This is an open-label pilot study on four weeks of virgin coconut oil (VCO) to investigate its efficacy in weight reduction and its safety of use in 20 obese but healthy Malay volunteers. Methodology. Efficacy was assessed by measuring weight and associated anthropometric parameters and lipid profile one week before and one week after VCO intake. Safety was assessed by comparing organ function tests one week before and one week after intake of VCO. Paired t-test was used to analyse any differences in all the measurable variables. Results. Only waist circumference (WC) was significantly reduced with a mean reduction of 2.86 cm or 0.97% from initial measurement (P = .02). WC reduction was only seen in males (P<.05). There was no change in the lipid profile. There was a small reduction in creatinine and alanine transferase levels. Conclusion. VCO is efficacious for WC reduction especially in males and it is safe for use in humans.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2011\n18. Coconut oil exhibits beneficial properties for cardiovascular health\nEffect of combination therapy of Fatty acids, calcium, vitamin d and boron with regular physical activity on cardiovascular risk factors in rat.\nJ Oleo Sci. 2012 ;61(2):103-11. PMID: 22277894\nM R Naghii, P Darvishi, Y Ebrahimpour, G Ghanizadeh, M Mofid, M Hedayati, A R Asgari\nThe effect of consumption of fatty acids and selected nutrients, along with regular physical activity, on cardiovascular risk factors in rats was investigated.Male rats were divided into the seven groups: Group 1: regular food and drinking water, Group 2: same as Group. 1 + physical activity (whole body vibration; WBV), Group 3: same as Group. 2 + calcium, vitamin D, boron, Group 4: same as Group. 3 + canola oil, Group 5: same as Group. 3 + sunflower oil, Group 6: same as Group. 3 + mix of sunflower oil and canola oil, Group 7: same as Group. 3 + coconut oil. Rats were treated for 8 weeks, and analysis of the frozen plasmas was performed. A- Analysis between the treatment groups and control revealed that vibration training in Group 2 increased body weight (P = 0.04), plasma creatin kinase (CK), (P = 0.02), and estradiol (E2), (P = 0.03). Rats in Group 5 consumed less food and plasma levels of cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) increased significantly (P = 0.02) in Group 6 and in Group 7 (p<0.05). B- Analysis of data among Group 4 – 7 (the oil consuming groups) and Group 3 revealed significant differences in cholesterol (Chol), LDL-C, HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), C- reactive protein (hs-CRP), estradiol (E2), atherogenic index (AI), and risk factor (RF), (p<0.05). In addition, plasma levels of testosterone (T) and free testosterone (FT) in Group 7 had a remarkable but non-significant increase. As a result of vibration training, a similar trend was observed for vitamin D in Group 2-7. The findings show that WBV is effective in improving health status by influencing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. Moreover, canola oil and sunflower oil, separately, showed beneficial impacts on CVD risk factors; whereas their combination had negative impacts on lipid profile. Coconut oil revealed to be efficient to provide health benefits in terms of CVD treatments.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2012\n19.

The anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic effects of VCO were assessed. In acute inflammatory models, VCO showed moderate anti-inflammatory effects on ethyl phenylpropiolate-induced ear edema in rats, and carrageenin- and arachidonic acid-induced paw edema. VCO exhibited an inhibitory effect on chronic inflammation by reducing the transudative weight, granuloma formation, and serum alkaline phosphatase activity. VCO also showed a moderate analgesic effect on the acetic acid-induced writhing response as well as an antipyretic effect in yeast-induced hyperthermia. The results obtained suggest anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic properties of VCO.\nArticle Published Date : Feb 01, 2010\n20.

PMID: 28126466\nF Nafar, J P Clarke, K M Mearow\nAlzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that has links with other conditions that can often be modified by dietary and life-style interventions. In particular, coconut oil has received attention as having potentially having benefits in lessening the cognitive deficits associated with Alzheimer’s disease. In a recent report, we showed that neuron survival in cultures co-treated with coconut oil and Aβ was rescued compared to cultures exposed only to Aβ. Here we investigated treatment with Aβ for 1, 6 or 24 h followed by addition of coconut oil for a further 24 h, or treatment with coconut oil for 24 h followed by Aβ exposure for various periods. Neuronal survival and several cellular parameters (cleaved caspase 3, synaptophysin labeling and ROS) were assessed. In addition, the influence of these treatments on relevant signaling pathways was investigated with Western blotting. In terms of the treatment timing, our data indicated that coconut oil rescues cells pre-exposed to Aβ for1 or 6 h, but is less effective when the pre-exposure has been 24 h. However, pretreatment with coconut oil prior to Aβ exposure showed the best outcomes. Treatment with octanoic or lauric acid also provided protection against Aβ, but was not as effective as the complete oil. The coconut oil treatment reduced the number of cells with cleaved caspase and ROS labeling, as well as rescuing the loss of synaptophysin labeling observed with Aβ treatment. Treatment with coconut oil, as well as octanoic, decanoic and lauric acids, resulted in a modest increase in ketone bodies compared to controls. The biochemical data suggest that Akt and ERK activation may contribute to the survival promoting influence of coconut oil. This was supported by observations that a PI3-Kinase inhibitor blocked the rescue effect of CoOil on Aβ amyloid toxicity. Further studies into the mechanisms of action of coconut oil and its constituent medium chain fatty acids are warranted.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 22, 2017\n24.

PMID: 27679437\nDevi Lekshmi Sheela, Puthiyaveetil Abdulla Nazeem, Arunaksharan Narayanankutty, Jeksy Jos Manalil, Achuthan C Raghavamenon\nThe coconut oil (CO) contains 91 % of saturated fatty acids in which 72 % are medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) like lauric, capric and caprylic acids. In contrast to animal fat, coconut oil has no cholesterol. Despite this fact, CO is sidelined among other vegetable oils due to the health hazards attributed to the saturated fatty acids. Though various medicinal effects of CO have been reported including the hypolipidemic activity, people are still confused in the consumption of this natural oil. In silico analyses and wet lab experiments have been carried out to identify the hypolipidemic properties of MCFAs and phenolic acids in CO by using different protein targets involved in cholesterol synthesis. The molecular docking studies were carried out using CDOCKER protocol in Accelery’s Discovery Studio, by taking different proteins like HMG- CoA reductase and cholesterol esterase as targets and the different phytocompounds in coconut as ligands. Molecular docking highlighted the potential of lauric acid in inhibiting the protein targets involved in hyperlipidemics. Further, validation of in silico results was carried out through in vivo studies. The activity of key enzymes HMG- CoA reductase and lipoprotein lipase were found reduced in animals fed with lauric acid and CO.\nArticle Published Date : Sep 26, 2016\n25.

Epub 2016 Aug 15. PMID: 27430387\nYudai Nonaka, Tetsuo Takagi, Makoto Inai, Shuhei Nishimura, Shogo Urashima, Kazumitsu Honda, Toshiaki Aoyama, Shin Terada\nCoconut oil has recently attracted considerable attention as a potential Alzheimer’s disease therapy because it contains large amounts of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) and its consumption is thought to stimulate hepatic ketogenesis, supplying an alternative energy source for brains with impaired glucose metabolism. In this study, we first reevaluated the responses of plasma ketone bodies to oral administration of coconut oil to rats. We found that the coconut oil-induced increase in plasma ketone body concentration was negligible and did not significantly differ from that observed after high-oleic sunflower oil administration. In contrast, the administration of coconut oil substantially increased the plasma free fatty acid concentration and lauric acid content, which is the major MCFA in coconut oil. Next, to elucidate whether lauric acid can activate ketogenesis in astrocytes with the capacity to generate ketone bodies from fatty acids, we treated the KT-5 astrocyte cell line with 50 and 100μM lauric acid for 4 h. The lauric acid treatments increased the total ketone body concentration in the cell culture supernatant to a greater extent than oleic acid, suggesting that lauric acid can directly and potently activate ketogenesis in KT-5 astrocytes. These results suggest that coconut oilintake may improve brain health by directly activating ketogenesis in astrocytes and thereby by providing fuel to neighboring neurons.\nArticle Published Date : Jul 31, 2016\n26. Coconut oil has antimicrobial activity on Candida species\nIn vitro antimicrobial properties of coconut oil on Candida species in Ibadan, Nigeria.\nJ Med Food. 2007 Jun;10(2):384-7. PMID: 17651080\nD O Ogbolu, A A Oni, O A Daini, A P Oloko\nDepartment of Medical Microbiology&Parasitology, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria.\nThe emergence of antimicrobial resistance, coupled with the availability of fewer antifungal agents with fungicidal actions, prompted this present study to characterize Candida species in our environment and determine the effectiveness of virgin coconut oil as an antifungal agent on these species. In 2004, 52 recent isolates of Candida species were obtained from clinical specimens sent to the Medical Microbiology Laboratory, University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria. Their susceptibilities to virgin coconut oil and fluconazole were studied by using the agar-well diffusion technique. Candida albicans was the most common isolate from clinical specimens (17); others were Candida glabrata (nine), Candida tropicalis (seven), Candida parapsilosis (seven), Candida stellatoidea (six), and Candida krusei (six). C. albicans had the highest susceptibility to coconut oil (100%), with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 25% (1:4 dilution), while fluconazole had 100% susceptibility at an MIC of 64 microg/mL (1:2 dilution). C. krusei showed the highest resistance to coconut oil with an MIC of 100% (undiluted), while fluconazole had an MIC of>128 microg/mL. It is noteworthy that coconut oil was active against species of Candida at 100% concentration compared to fluconazole. Coconut oil should be used in the treatment of fungal infections in view of emerging drug-resistant Candida species.\nArticle Published Date : Jun 01, 2007\n27. Coconut oil is traditionally used in Indonesian folk medicine for wound management\n[Wound management with coconut oil in Indonesian folk medicine].\nChirurg. 2002 Apr;73(4):387-92. PMID: 12063927\nM Sachs, J von Eichel, F Asskali\nKlinik für Allgemein- und Gefässchirurgie, Klinikum der Johann-Wolfgang Goethe-Universität, Theodor-Stern-Kai 7, 60596 Frankfurt am Main.\nThe medical plants which are used to treat wounds and injuries by the ethnic group of Ngada on Flores, an Eastern Indonesian island, will be presented. Additionally, the coconut oil used to treat wounds and to conserve medicinal plants will be analysed biochemically. The people of Ngada use the following plants for wound treatment: seeds of the betel nut (Areca catechu L.), fruits of papaya (Carica papaya L.), leaves of the Indian Hydrocotyle (Centelle asiatica L.), the rhizome of turmeric (Curcuma domestica Val. and Curcumara xanthorrhiza Roxb.), leaves of betel (Piper betel L.). Coconut oil is particularly useful because of its biochemical structure: unlike olive oil and animal fatty tissue, it consists of short-chained and saturated fatty acids. These qualities in coconut oil prevent it from becoming oxidized and rancid, thus making it suitable for the preservation of medicinal plants and for wound treatment.\nArticle Published Date : Apr 01, 2002\n28.

PMID: 19767885\nK Govindan Nevin, Thankappan Rajamohan\nDepartment of Biochemistry, University of Kerala, Kariavattom, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala 695 581, India.\nBecause coconut oil extracted by wet process (virgin coconut oil, VCO) is gaining popularity among consumers, this study was conducted to evaluate VCO compared with coconut oil extracted by dry process (copra oil, CO) for their influence on lipid parameters, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant status in rats coadministered with cholesterol. VCO, CO, and cholesterol were fed in a semi-synthetic diet to 24 male Sprague-Dawley rats for 45 days. After the experimental period, lipid and lipid peroxide levels and antioxidant enzyme activities were observed. Chemical composition and antioxidant properties of the polyphenolic fraction from VCO and CO were also analyzed. The results showed that lipid and lipid peroxide levels were lower in VCO-fed animals than in animals fed either CO or cholesterol alone. Antioxidant enzyme activities in VCO-fed animals were comparable with those in control animals. Although the fatty acid profiles of both oils were similar, a significantly higher level of unsaponifiable components was observed in VCO. Polyphenols from VCO also showed significant radical-scavenging activity compared with those from CO. This study clearly indicates the potential benefits of VCO over CO in maintaining lipid metabolism and antioxidant status. These effects may be attributed in part to the presence of biologically active minor unsaponifiable components.\nArticle Published Date : Aug 01, 2009\n31.

PMID: 25805601\nS S Nair, J J Manalil, S K Ramavarma, I M Suseela, A Thekkepatt, A C Raghavamenon\nVirgin coconut oil (VCO) is an unrefined kernal oil, prepared from Cocos nucifera L., having substantial nutritional and medicinal value. Experimental studies have suggested its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunostimulatory and hypolipidemic effects. The present study assesses its effect on formalin-induced chronic inflammation and cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced systemic toxicity in murine models. Oral administration of VCO effectively reduced formalin-induced paw oedema in mice with more or less similar efficacy as that of diclofenac. The CTX-induced hike in blood urea, creatinine, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and liver marker enzymes in mice was marginally decreased by VCO (8 g/kg body weight) ingestion orally. The liver and kidney catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities, together with cellular glutathione and TBARS levels, were found to be improved in these animals. Overall the study reveals the protective efficacy of VCO against secondary toxicity induced by CTX possibly through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.\nArticle Published Date : Mar 23, 2015\n32.

PMID: 15329324\nDepartment of Biochemistry, University of Kerala, Kariavattom, Thiruvananthapuram 695 581, India.\nOBJECTIVES: The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of consumption of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on various lipid parameters in comparison with copra oil (CO). In addition, the preventive effect of polyphenol fraction (PF) from test oils on copper induced oxidation of LDL and carbonyl formation was also studied.\nDESIGN AND METHODS: After 45 days of oil feeding to Sprague-Dawley rats, several lipid parameters and lipoprotein levels were determined. PF was isolated from the oils and its effect on in vitro LDL oxidation was assessed.\nRESULTS: VCO obtained by wet process has a beneficial effect in lowering lipid components compared to CO. It reduced total cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, LDL, and VLDL cholesterol levels and increased HDL cholesterol in serum and tissues. The PF of virgin coconut oil was also found to be capable of preventing in vitro LDL oxidation with reduced carbonyl formation.\nCONCLUSION: The results demonstrated the potential beneficiary effect of virgin coconut oil in lowering lipid levels in serum and tissues and LDL oxidation by physiological oxidants. This property of VCO may be attributed to the biologically active polyphenol components present in the oil.\nArticle Published Date : Sep 01, 2004\n33.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the virgin coconut oil on lipid peroxidation in the bone of an osteoporotic rat model. Normal female Sprague-Dawley rats aged 3 months old were randomly divided into 4 groups, with 8 rats in each group: baseline, sham, ovariectomised (OVX) control group, and OVX given 8% VCO in the diet for six weeks. The oxidative status of the bone was assessed by measuring the index of lipid peroxidation, which is malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration, as well as the endogenous antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase (GPX) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the tibia at the end of the study. The results showed that there was a significant decrease in MDA levels in the OVX-VCO group compared to control group. Ovariectomised rats treated with VCO also had significantly higher GPX concentration. The SOD level seemed to be increased in the OVX-VCO group compared to OVX-control group. In conclusion, VCO prevented lipid peroxidation and increased the antioxidant enzymes in the osteoporotic rat model.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2011\n34.

PMID: 29079969\nSunil K Panchal, Sharyn Carnahan, Lindsay Brown\nIncreasing prevalence of obesity and metabolic syndrome warrants identification of potential therapeutic options for intervention. This study tested commercially available Virgin Coconut Oil and Coconut Nourish, as coconuts are rich sources of lauric and myristic acids. Male Wistar rats were fed either corn starch diet (C); high-carbohydrate, high-fat diet (H); high-carbohydrate, high-virgin coconut oil diet (HV); or high-carbohydrate, high-coconut Nourish diet (HN) for 16 weeks. Metabolic, liver, and cardiovascular health parameters were measured during and at the end of the study. Virgin coconut oil lowered body weight (C 386±8g, H 516±13g, HV 459±10g), blood glucose concentrations (C 4.2±0.1 mmol/L, H 5.4±0.2 mmol/L, HV 4.6±0.2 mmol/L), systolic blood pressure (C 127±5mmHg, H 149±4mmHg, HV 133±3mmHg,) and diastolic stiffness (C 25.0±1.7, H 31.4±1.2, HV 25.2±2.3,) with improved structure and function of the heart and liver. Coconut Nourish increased total body lean mass (C 255±10g, H 270±16g, HN 303±15g) and lowered plasma total cholesterolconcentrations (C 1.6±0.2 mmol/L, H 1.7±0.1 mmol/L, HN 1.0±0.0 mmol/L), systolic blood pressure (C 127±5mmHg, H 149±4mmHg, HN 130±3mmHg) and diastolic stiffness (C 25.0±1.7, H 31.4±1.2, HN 26.5±1.0), improved structure and function of the heart and liver but increased plasma concentrations of triglycerides (C 0.3±0.1 mmol/L, H 1.1±0.4 mmol/L, HN 1.8±0.2 mmol/L) and non-esterified fatty acids (C 1.2±0.3 mmol/L, H 3.3±0.8 mmol/L, HN 5.6±0.4 mmol/L). Thus, the fiber and protein in coconut Nourish and the medium-chain saturated fatty acids in virgin coconut oil may improvecardiovascular and liver complications in obesity.\nArticle Published Date : Oct 26, 2017\n35.

PMID: 23305031\nDepartment of Biochemistry, University of Kerala, Thiruvananthapuram, 695 581, India.\nEffect of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on lipid levels and regulation of lipid metabolism compared with copra oil (CO), olive oil (OO), and sunflower oil (SFO) has been reported. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed different oils at 8% level for 45 days along with synthetic diet. Results showed that VCO feeding significantly lowered (P<0.05) levels of total cholesterol, LDL+ VLDL cholesterol, Apo B and triglycerides in serum and tissues compared to rats fed CO, OO and SFO, while HDL-cholesterol and Apo A1 were significantly (P<0.05) higher in serum of rats fed VCO than other groups. Hepatic lipogenesis was also down regulated in VCO fed rats, which was evident from the decreased activities of enzymes viz., HMG CoA reductase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and malic enzyme. In addition, VCO significantly (P<0.05) increased the activities of lipoprotein lipase, lecithin cholesterol acyl transferase and enhanced formation of bile acids. Results demonstrated hypolipidemic effect of VCO by regulating the synthesis and degradation of lipids.\nArticle Published Date : Oct 31, 2012\n36.

This study investigated the effects of adjuvant use of coconut oil and HAART on testicular morphology and seminal parameters in Sprague- Dawley rats. Twelve adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 153~169 g were distributed into four groups (A-D) and treated as follows: A served as control (distilled water); B (HAART cocktail- Zidovudine, Lamivudine and Nevirapine); C (HAART + Virgin coconut oil 10 mL/kg) and D (Virgin coconut oil 10 mL/kg). After 56 days of treatment, animals were killed and laparotomy to exercise the epididymis for seminal fluid analyses done whilst testicular tissues were processed for histomorphometric studies. Result showed a significant decline in sperm motility (P<0.05) and count (P<0.0001) in HAART-treated animals while there was insignificant changes in other parameters in groups C and D except count that was reduced (P<0.0001) when compared with controls. Histomorphological studies showed HAART caused disorders in seminiferous tubular architecture with significant (P<0.01) decline in epithelial height closely mirrored by extensive reticulin framework and positive PAS cells. Adjuvant Virgin coconut oil + HAART resulted in significant decrease in seminiferous tubular diameter (P<0.05), but other morphometric and histological parameters were similar to control or Virgin coconut oil alone (which showed normal histoarchitecture levels). While derangements in testicular and seminal fluid parameters occurred following HAART, adjuvant treatment with Virgin coconut oil restored the distortions emanating thereof.\nArticle Published Date : Sep 30, 2016\n38.

Although CO forms the predominant dietary constituent in south India, VCO is being promoted for healthy life due to its constituent antioxidant molecules. High fructose containing CO is an established model for insulin resistance and steatohepatitis in rodents. In this study, replacement of CO with VCO in high fructose diet markedly improved the glucose metabolism and dyslipidemia. The animals fed VCO diet had only 17 % increase in blood glucose level compared to CO fed animals (46 %). Increased level of GSH and antioxidant enzyme activities in VCO fed rats indicate improved hepatic redox status. Reduced lipid peroxidation and carbonyl adducts in VCO fed rats well corroborate with the histopathological findings that hepatic damage and steatosis were comparatively reduced than the CO fed animals. These results suggest that VCO could be an efficient nutraceutical in preventing the development of diet induced insulin resistance and associated complications possibly through its antioxidant efficacy.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2015\n39.

Epub 2010 Jun 3. PMID: 20523108\nDepartment of Biochemistry, University of Kerala, Thiruvananthapuram, India.\nOBJECTIVES: The present study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of a topical application of virgin coconut oil (VCO) on excision wounds in young rats.\nMETHODS: Three sets of experiments with 3 groups of female Sprague-Dawley rats each consisting of 6 animals were used for studying wound closure time, antioxidant status and biochemical parameters. Group 1 was the control; groups 2 and 3 were treated with 0.5 and 1.0 ml VCO, respectively, 24 h after wound creation for 10 days. After the experimental period, the healing property of VCO was evaluated by monitoring the time taken for complete epithelization as well as levels of various parameters of the wound’s granulation tissue. The collagen solubility pattern, glycohydrolase activity, and histopathology of the granulation tissue were also analyzed. The antioxidant status during wound healing was monitored continuously for 14 days.\nRESULTS: VCO-treated wounds healed much faster, as indicated by a decreased time of complete epithelization and higher levels of various skin components. Pepsin-soluble collagen showed a significant increase in VCO- treated wounds, indicating a higher collagen cross-linking. Glycohydrolase activities were also found to be increased due to a higher turnover of collagen. Antioxidant enzyme activities, and reduced glutathione and malondialdehyde levels were found to be increased on the 10th day after wounding, which were found to have returned to normal levels on day 14 in the treated wounds. The lipid peroxide levels were found to be lower in the treated wounds. A histopathological study showed an increase in fibroblast proliferation and neovascularization in VCO-treated wounds compared to controls.\nCONCLUSION: The beneficial effect of VCO can be attributed to the cumulative effect of various biologically active minor components present in it.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2010\n40. Roselle seed oil reduces hyperlipidemia and hypercholesterolemia\nHypolipidemic and Hypocholesterolemic Effect of Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) Seeds Oil in Experimental Male Rats.\nJ Oleo Sci. 2017 ;66(1):41-49. PMID: 28049927\nRehab F M Ali, Ayman M El-Anany\nThe current investigation aimed to evaluate the influence of roselle seeds oil (RSO), coconut oil (CNO) and binary mixture of them on serum lipids of experimental rats. Fatty acid composition of native and blended oils was determined. Thirty five male Albino rats (145- 160 g) were used throughout this study. The rats were fed AIN-93G diet containing 10% fat from CNO, RSO, B1 (25%RSO+ 75 %CNO), B2 (50 %RSO+ 50 %CNO or B3 (75 %RSO+ 25 % CNO) for eight weeks. Blood samples were collected at the beginning, every two weeks during the experiment, and at the end of the experiment. At the time of sacrifice, organs weights in relation to their body weights were immediately recorded. Substitution of 25, 50 and 75 % of CNO with equal amounts of RSO reduced saturated fatty acids by 16.04, 32.58 and 48.77 %, respectively in blended oils. The content of linoleic (C18:2) increased from not detected level in CNO to 9.81, 19.67 and 29.48 % in CNO blended with 25, 50 and 75 % of RSO, respectively. The relative liver weights of rats fed CNO was significantly higher than that of those fed RSO and blended oils. Mixing CNO with various levels of RSO attenuates the adverse effect in the relative liver weights which caused by CNO administration. At the end of the experiment, blinding coconut oil with 25, 50 and 75 % of roselle oil inhibited the elevation in total cholesterol by 9.69, 28.16 and 36.16 %, respectively compared to CNO rats. Rats fed diet containing CNO for 8 weeks had significantly the highest content (126.49 mg/dl) of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, while those fed 100 % RSO (as a source of lipids) had the lowest concentration of LDL-C (64.32 mg/dL). Atherogenic index (AI) values of rats submitted B1, B2 and B3 were about 1.12, 1.23 and 1.28 times as low as those of rats fed CNO diet, respectively. The results of this study indicate that roselle seeds oil (RSO) reduces hyperlipidemia and hypercholesterolemia in rats fed diet rich in saturated fatty acids.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2016\n41.

PMID: 29387575\nAdemola Clement Famurewa, Fidelis Ebele Ejezie\nObjective: Literature has confirmed the pathogenic role of cadmium (Cd) and its exposure in the induction of dyslipidemia implicated in the development and increasing incidence of cardiovascular diseases. The current study explored whether polyphenolics isolated from virgin coconut oil (VCO) prevent Cd-induced dyslipidemia and investigate the underlying mechanism of action, in rats.\nMaterials and Methods: Rats were pretreated with VCO polyphenols (10, 20 and 50 mg/kg body weight; orally) 2 weeks prior to concurrent Cd administration (5 mg/kg) for 5 weeks. Subsequently, serum concentrations of lipid and lipoprotein cholesterol and cardiovascular risk ratios were determined. Hepatic activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) as well as reduced glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were analyzed.\nResults: Sub-chronic Cd administration significantly increased the serum levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol and very low density lipoprotein cholesterol while markedly reduced high density lipoprotein cholesterol. Hepatic activities of SOD and CAT as well as GSH content were suppressed by Cd, whereas MDA level was obviously increased. The co-administration of VCO polyphenol with Cd remarkably restored lipid profile and cardiovascular risk ratios and stabilized antioxidant defense systems comparable to control group.\nConclusion: This is the first study presenting that polyphenols isolated from VCO prevent Cd-induced lipid abnormalities and cardiovascular risk ratios by improving antioxidant defense systems.\nArticle Published Date : Dec 31, 2017\n42.

We studied the effect of different dietary lipids on the outcome of a permanent ischemic stroke rat model.\nMETHODS: Wistar rats were fed diets containing 7% commercial oils (S, soybean; O, olive; C, coconut; G, grape seed) for 35 d. Stroke was induced by permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion. Coronal slices from ischemic brains and sham-operated animals were supravitally stained. Penumbra and core volumes were calculated by image digitalization after 24, 48, and 72 h poststroke. Homogenates and mitochondrial fractions were prepared from different zones and analyzed by redox status, inflammatory markers, ceramide, and arachidonate content, phospholipase A2, NOS, and proteases.\nRESULTS: Soybean (S) and G diets were mainly prooxidative and proinflammatory by increasing the liberation of arachidonate and its transformation into prostaglandins. O was protective in terms of redox homeostatic balance, minor increases in lipid and protein damage, conservation of reduced glutathione, protective activation of NOS in penumbra, and net ratio of anti-to proinflammatory cytokines. Apoptosis (caspase-3, milli- and microcalpains) was less activated by O than by any other diet.\nCONCLUSION: Dietary lipids modulate NOS and PLA2 activities, ceramide production, and glutathione import into the mitochondrial matrix, finally determining the activation of the two main protease systems involved in programmed cell death. Olive oil appears to be a biological source for the isolation of protective agents that block the expansion of brain core at the expense of penumbral neurons.\nArticle Published Date : Oct 31, 2015\n43.

PMID: 16216548\nKimberly M Hargrave, Michael J Azain, Jess L Miner\nConjugated linoleic acid (CLA) induces a body fat loss that is enhanced in mice fed coconut oil (CO), which lacks essential fatty acids (EFA). Our objective was to determine if CO enhancement of CLA-induced body fat loss is due to the lack of EFA. The CLA-EFA interaction was tested by feeding CO and fat free (FF) diets for varying times with and without replenishment of individual EFA. Mice fed CO during only the 2-week CLA-feeding period did not differ from control mice in their adipose EFA content but still tended (P=0.06) to be leaner than mice fed soy oil (SO). Mice raised on CO or FF diets and fed CLA were leaner than the SO+CLA-fed mice (P<0.01). Mice raised on CO and then replenished with linoleic, linolenic, or arachidonic acid were leaner when fed CLA than mice raised on SO (P<0.001). Body fat of CO+CLA-fed mice was not affected by EFA addition. In summary, CO-fed mice not lacking in tissue EFA responded more to CLA than SO-fed mice. Also, EFA addition to CO diets did not alter the enhanced response to CLA. Therefore, the increased response to CLA in mice raised on CO or FF diets appears to be independent of a dietary EFA deficiency.\nArticle Published Date : Oct 15, 2005\n44.

PMID: 18521965\nA warm water crude extract of coconut milk and a coconut water dispersion were investigated for their antiulcerogenic effects in male Wistar albino rats. Ulcers were induced in the male rats by subcutaneous administration of indomethacin (40 mg/kg) using standard procedures. The ulcer inhibition rate (UIR) was taken as a measure of the cytoprotection offered by test substances. Coconut milk (2 mL daily oral feeding) produced a stronger percentage (54%) reduction in the mean ulcer area than coconut water (39%). The effect of coconut milk was similar to the effect of sucralfate that reduced the mean ulcer area by 56% in this study. Sucralfate is a conventional cytoprotective agent. The results showed that coconut milk and water via macroscopic observation had protective effects on the ulcerated gastric mucosa. It is concluded that coconut milk offered stronger protection on indomethacin-induced ulceration than coconut water in rats.\nArticle Published Date : Jul 01, 2008\n44. Coconut oil supplementation combined with exercise training for 30 days promotes beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system of spontaneous hypertensive rats\nClick here to read the complete article.\nCoconut oil supplementation and physical exercise improves baroreflex sensitivity and oxidative stress in hypertensive rats.\nAppl Physiol Nutr Metab. 2015 Apr ;40(4):393-400. Epub 2015 Feb 9. PMID: 25659569\nNaiane F B Alves, Suênia K P Porpino, Matheus M O Monteiro, Enéas R M Gomes, Valdir A Braga\nThe hypothesis that oral supplementation with virgin coconut oil (Cocos nucifera L.) and exercise training would improve impaired baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) and reduce oxidative stress in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) was tested. Adult male SHR and Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) were divided into 5 groups: WKY + saline (n = 8); SHR + saline (n = 8); SHR + coconut oil (2 mL·day(-1), n = 8); SHR + trained (n = 8); and SHR + trained + coconut oil (n = 8). Mean arterial pressure (MAP) was recorded and BRS was tested using phenylephrine (8 μg/kg, intravenous) and sodium nitroprusside (25 μg·kg(-1), intravenous). Oxidative stress was measured using dihydroethidium in heart and aorta. SHR + saline, SHR + coconut oil, and SHR + trained group showed higher MAP compared with WKY + saline (175 ± 6, 148 ± 6, 147 ± 7 vs. 113 ± 2 mm Hg; p<0.05). SHR + coconut oil, SHR + trained group, and SHR + trained + coconut oil groups presented lower MAP compared with SHR + saline group (148± 6, 147 ± 7, 134 ± 8 vs. 175 ± 6 mm Hg; p<0.05). Coconut oil combined with exercise training improved BRS in SHR compared with SHR + saline group (-2.47± 0.3 vs. -1.39 ± 0.09 beats·min(-1)·mm Hg(-1); p<0.05). SHR + saline group showed higher superoxide levels when compared with WKY + saline (774± 31 vs. 634 ± 19 arbitrary units (AU), respectively; p<0.05). SHR + trained + coconut oil group presented reduced oxidative stress compared with SHR + saline in heart (622± 16 vs. 774 ± 31 AU, p<0.05). In aorta, coconut oil reduced oxidative stress in SHR compared with SHR + saline group (454± 33 vs. 689 ± 29 AU, p<0.05). Oral supplementation with coconut oil combined with exercise training improved impaired BRS and reduced oxidative stress in SHR.\nArticle Published Date : Mar 31, 2015\n45.

Coconut oil reduces prostate weight to body ratio\nEffects of coconut oil on testosterone-induced prostatic hyperplasia in Sprague-Dawley rats.\nJ Pharm Pharmacol. 2007 Jul;59(7):995-9. PMID: 17637195\nMaría de Lourdes Arruzazabala, Vivian Molina, Rosa Más, Daisy Carbajal, David Marrero, Víctor González, Eduardo Rodríguez\nBenign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the benign uncontrolled growth of the prostate gland, leading to difficulty with urination. Saw palmetto lipid extracts (SPLE), used to treat BPH, have been shown to inhibit prostate 5a-reductase, and some major components, such as lauric, myristic and oleic acids also inhibit this enzyme. Coconut oil (CO) is also rich in fatty acids, mainly lauric and myristic acids. We investigated whether CO prevents testosterone-induced prostate hyperplasia (PH) in Sprague-Dawley rats. Animals were distributed into seven groups (10 rats each). A negative control group were injected with soya oil; six groups were injected with testosterone (3 mg kg(-1)) to induce PH: a positive control group, and five groups treated orally with SPLE (400 mg kg(-1)), CO or sunflower oil (SO) (400 and 800 mg kg(-1)). Treatments were given for 14 days. Rats were weighed before treatment and weekly thereafter. Rats were then killed and the prostates were removed and weighed. CO (400 and 800 mg kg(-1)), SPLE (400 mg kg(-1)) and SO at 800 mg kg(-1), but not at 400 mg kg(-1), significantly reduced the increase in prostate weight (PW) and PW:body weight (BW) ratio induced by testosterone (% inhibition 61.5%, 82.0%, 43.8% and 28.2%, respectively). Since CO and SPLE, but not SO, contain appreciable concentrations of lauric and myristic acids, these results could be attributed to this fact. In conclusion, this study shows that CO reduced the increase of both PW and PW:BW ratio, markers of testosterone-induced PH in rats.\nArticle Published Date : Jul 01, 2007\n47. Coconut oil is superior to safflower oil in enhancing the absorption of tomato carotenoid in an animal model\nCoconut Oil Enhances Tomato Carotenoid Tissue Accumulation Compared to Safflower Oil in the Mongolian Gerbil (Meriones unguiculatus).\nJ Agric Food Chem. 2012 Aug 7. Epub 2012 Aug 7. PMID: 22866697\nLauren E Conlon, Ryan D King, Nancy E Moran, John W Erdman\nEvidence suggests that monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats facilitate greater absorption of carotenoids than saturated fats. However, the comparison of consuming a polyunsaturated fat source versus a saturated fat source on tomato carotenoid bioaccumulation has not been examined. Our goal was to determine the influence of coconut oil and safflower oil on tomato carotenoid tissue accumulation in Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) fed a 20% fat diet. Coconut oil feeding increased carotenoid concentrations among many compartments including total carotenoids in the serum (p = 0.0003), adrenal glandular phytoene (p = 0.04), hepatic phytofluene (p = 0.0001), testicular all-trans lycopene (p = 0.01), and cis-lycopene (p = 0.006) in the prostate-seminal vesicle complex compared to safflower oil. Safflower oil-fed gerbils had greater splenic lycopene concentrations (p = 0.006) compared to coconut oil-fed gerbils. Coconut oil feeding increased serum cholesterol (p = 0.0001), and decreased hepatic cholesterol (p = 0.0003) compared to safflower oil. In summary, coconut oil, enhanced tissue uptake of tomato carotenoids to a greater degree than safflower oil. These results may have been due to the large proportion of medium chain fatty acids in coconut oil which might have caused a shift in cholesterol flux to favor extrahepatic carotenoid tissue deposition.\nArticle Published Date : Aug 06, 2012\n48. Coconut oil has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities\nAnti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic activities of virgin coconut oil.\nPharm Biol. 2010 Feb;48(2):151-7. PMID: 20645831\nS Intahphuak, P Khonsung, A Panthong\nMcCormick Faculty of Nursing, Payap University, Chiang Mai, Thailand. sophaphan_in@yahoo.com\nThis study investigated some pharmacological properties of virgin coconut oil (VCO), the natural pure oil from coconut [Cocos nucifera Linn (Palmae)] milk, which was prepared without using chemical or high-heat treatment. The anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic effects of VCO were assessed. In acute inflammatory models, VCO showed moderate anti-inflammatory effects on ethyl phenylpropiolate-induced ear edema in rats, and carrageenin- and arachidonic acid-induced paw edema. VCO exhibited an inhibitory effect on chronic inflammation by reducing the transudative weight, granuloma formation, and serum alkaline phosphatase activity. VCO also showed a moderate analgesic effect on the acetic acid-induced writhing response as well as an antipyretic effect in yeast-induced hyperthermia. The results obtained suggest anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic properties of VCO.\nArticle Published Date : Feb 01, 2010\n49. Coconut oil exhibits beneficial properties for cardiovascular health\nEffect of combination therapy of Fatty acids, calcium, vitamin d and boron with regular physical activity on cardiovascular risk factors in rat.\nJ Oleo Sci. 2012 ;61(2):103-11. PMID: 22277894\nM R Naghii, P Darvishi, Y Ebrahimpour, G Ghanizadeh, M Mofid, M Hedayati, A R Asgari\nThe effect of consumption of fatty acids and selected nutrients, along with regular physical activity, on cardiovascular risk factors in rats was investigated.Male rats were divided into the seven groups: Group 1: regular food and drinking water, Group 2: same as Group. 1 + physical activity (whole body vibration; WBV), Group 3: same as Group. 2 + calcium, vitamin D, boron, Group 4: same as Group. 3 + canola oil, Group 5: same as Group. 3 + sunflower oil, Group 6: same as Group. 3 + mix of sunflower oil and canola oil, Group 7: same as Group. 3 + coconut oil. Rats were treated for 8 weeks, and analysis of the frozen plasmas was performed. A- Analysis between the treatment groups and control revealed that vibration training in Group 2 increased body weight (P = 0.04), plasma creatin kinase (CK), (P = 0.02), and estradiol (E2), (P = 0.03). Rats in Group 5 consumed less food and plasma levels of cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) increased significantly (P = 0.02) in Group 6 and in Group 7 (p<0.05). B- Analysis of data among Group 4 – 7 (the oil consuming groups) and Group 3 revealed significant differences in cholesterol (Chol), LDL-C, HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), C- reactive protein (hs-CRP), estradiol (E2), atherogenic index (AI), and risk factor (RF), (p<0.05). In addition, plasma levels of testosterone (T) and free testosterone (FT) in Group 7 had a remarkable but non-significant increase. As a result of vibration training, a similar trend was observed for vitamin D in Group 2-7. The findings show that WBV is effective in improving health status by influencing cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. Moreover, canola oil and sunflower oil, separately, showed beneficial impacts on CVD risk factors; whereas their combination had negative impacts on lipid profile. Coconut oil revealed to be efficient to provide health benefits in terms of CVD treatments.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 01, 2012\n50. Coconut and olive oil consumption is associated with higher levels of testosterone and antioxidants in the testes of rats\nDietary lipids modify redox homeostasis and steroidogenic status in rat testis.\nPhytother Res. 2010 Feb;24(2):163-8. PMID: 18549927\nGraciela E Hurtado de Catalfo, María J T de Alaniz, Carlos A Marra\nOBJECTIVE: The present study explored the effect of dietary oils on lipid composition, antioxidant status, and the activity of the main steroidogenic enzymes in the testis. METHODS: Forty Wistar rats were randomly assigned to one of four groups (n = 10) fed for 60 d on the same basal diet plus different lipid sources as commercial oils: soybean, olive, coconut, or grapeseed. After sacrifice, testicular lipids and fatty acid composition, free radical biomarkers, antioxidant levels, hormones, and steroidogenic enzymes were determined. RESULTS: The lipid composition of diets produced significant changes in neutral/phospholipids, free/esterified cholesterol, and plasmalogen proportion. Fatty acid patterns of these lipids were also strongly modified, influencing the double bond index. We also found a close correlation between the type of diet and the generation of free radicals. The oxidative stress in testes was higher with the grapeseed oil-supplemented diet and decreased with the other diets in this order: soybean oil > olive oil > coconut oil. Animals fed with the olive oil and coconut oil diets showed the highest testicular levels of antioxidants in addition to significantly high levels of testosterone and 3beta- or 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzymes. CONCLUSION: Different oils in the diets strongly modified the homeostasis of the testicular antioxidant defense system and, in consequence, affected steroidogenic function, showing a clear correlation with the damage induced. According to our results, an appropriate mixture of olive and soybean oils could be a healthy recommendation.\nArticle Published Date : Feb 01, 2010\n51. Ylang ylang oil and lemongrass oil are suitable to be used as green repellents for mosquito control, which are safe for humans, domestic animals and environmental friendly\nEfficacy of Thai herbal essential oils as green repellent against mosquito vectors.\nActa Trop. 2015 Feb ;142:127-30. Epub 2014 Nov 28. PMID: 25438256\nMayura Soonwera, Siriporn Phasomkusolsil\nRepellency activity of Thai essential oils derived from ylang ylang (Cananga odorata (Lamk.) Hook.f.&Thomson: Annonaceae) and lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf: Poaceae) were tested against two mosquito vectors, Aedes aegypti (L.) and Culex quinquefasciatus (Say). There were compared with two chemical repellents (DEET 20% w/w; Sketolene Shield(®) and IR3535, ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate 12.5% w/w; Johnson’s Baby Clear Lotion Anti-Mosquito(®)). Each herbal repellent was applied in three diluents; coconut oil, soybean oil and olive oil at 0.33 μl/cm(2) on the forearm of volunteers. All herbal repellent exhibited higher repellent activity than IR3535 12.5% w/w, but lower repellent activity than DEET 20% w/w. The C. odorata oil in coconut oil exhibited excellent activity with 98.9% protection from bites of A. aegypti for 88.7±10.4 min. In addition, C. citratus in olive oil showed excellent activity with 98.8% protection from bites of C. quinquefasciatus for 170.0±9.0 min. While, DEET 20% w/w gave protection for 155.0±7.1-182.0±12.2 min and 98.5% protection from bites of two mosquito species. However, all herbal repellent provided lower repellency activity (97.4-98.9% protection for 10.5-88.7 min) against A. aegypti thanC. quinquefasciatus (98.3-99.2% protection for 60-170 min). Our data exhibited that C. odorata oil and C. citratus oil are suitable to be used as green repellents for mosquito control, which are safe for humans, domestic animals and environmental friendly.\nArticle Published Date : Jan 31, 2015\n52.

(629, 'An Acidic pH Linked to Alzheimer’s', 'https://phoreveryoung.wordpress.com/2018/08/23/an-acidic-ph-linked-to-alzheimers/', 'An Acidic pH Linked to Alzheimer’s\nAn estimated 5.7 million Americans are currently living with Alzheimer’s and the emotional pain that comes along with it. According to Robert O. Young, PhD, “the cause of Alzheimer’s is the result of the inability of the glymphatic system of the brain to remove acidic metabolic waste that is then buffered by alkaline buffers leading to the buildup of plaque. The plaque buildup in the brain is a defensive mechanism to protect healthy brain cells from acidic metabolic waste and then breakdown. Therefore, the true cause of dementia and Alzheimer’s is damage to healthy brain cells due to the buildup of metabolic acidic waste not properly being eliminated via the glymphatic system and then dumped into the interstitial fluids and removed by the lymphatic system via bowels, kidneys or pores of the skin. The following scan illustrates the brain degeneration caused by the buildup of acidic waste.\nTHE LINK BETWEEN pH AND ALZHEIMER’S\nJust recently scientists have claimed that they have discovered new evidence that one of the plausible roots of Alzheimer’s disease could be a simple acid-alkaline pH imbalance in certain fluid areas of the brain.\nIn a new study from John Hopkins Medicine , mice with an Alzheimer’s gene were given histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors. The experiment successfully reversed the pH problem and improved the capacity for amyloid beta clearance.\n“By the time Alzheimer’s disease is diagnosed, most of the neurological damage is done, and it’s likely too late to reverse the disease’s progression,” says Professor of Physiology at the Johns Hopkins University, Rajini Rao.\n“That’s why we need to focus on the earliest pathological symptoms or markers of Alzheimer’s disease, and we know that the biology and chemistry of endosomes is an important factor long before cognitive decline sets in.”\nNearly 20 years ago, scientists at Johns Hopkins and New York University discovered that endosomes, compartments that ferry molecules within cells, are larger and more abundant in the brains of people destined to develop Alzheimer’s disease. This hinted at an underlying problem that could lead to an accumulation of amyloid protein in spaces around neurons, says Prof. Rao.\nTo shuttle their cargo from place to place, endosomes use chaperones – proteins that bind to specific cargo and bring them back and forth from the cell’s surface.\nWhether and how well this binding occurs depends on the proper pH level inside the endosome, a delicate balance of acidity and alkalinity, that makes endosomes float to the surface and slip back down into the cell.\nEmbedded in the endosome membrane are proteins that shuttle charged hydrogen atoms, known as protons, in and out of endosomes. The amount of protons inside the endosome determines its pH.\nWhen fluids in the endosome become too acidic, the cargo is trapped within the endosome deep inside the cell. When the endosome contents are more alkaline, the cargo lingers at the cell’s surface for too long.\nAccording to Robert O. Young, PhD., it all begins in the fluid spaces of the brain and certain cells called astrocytes. Astrocytes are responsible for cleaning up memory-destroying amyloid beta metabolic acid bound plaques between neurons. Normally, they do their job, and the metabolic acidic waste is eliminated during sleep preventing plaque buildup. But, when astrocytes are over-whelmed by the buildup of metabolic waste from bran cells, the acid bound plaque begin to build up within the brain to prevent damage to healthy brain cells, causing the hallmark signs of Alzheimer’s.\nIt turns out that this problem is caused by a simple pH imbalance inside crucial nutrient-transport fluid parts of brain cells. Scientists gave an HDAC inhibitor (a drug usually reserved for treating blood cancers) to pH imbalanced astrocytes with the Alzheimer’s genetic variant, and as internal pH was restored to a normal 7.365, astrocyte function and acid bound plaque cleanup was significantly improved.\n“Simply improving the the alkaline pH environment around these brain cells improved overall function and clearance of the damaging acidic bound plaque as the body’s way of protecting healthy brain cells from the metabolic waste that was NOT eliminated during a restful sleep by the glymphatic system,” according to Robert O. Young, PhD. In fact Dr. Young suggests that ALL sickness and disease, including ALL cancers are the result of an over-acidification of the blood and then interstitial fluids due to an inverted way of living, eating, drinking, breathing and thinking.”\nStart your day with a glass of alkaline water with chlorophyll and lemon\nAdding lemon juice to your alkaline chlorophyll water will help in detoxing and alkalizing your body. You may think lemons are acidic, but lemon juice is actually alkaline-forming in the body. It’s the easiest (and tastiest) way to bring up the pH levels of your body fluids while ensuring your body is fully hydrated and ready to start the day clean and energetic. To purchase pure chlorophyll and lemon juice powders go to: http://www.ijuicenow.com\nFinally, drinking alkaline chlorophyll water with lemon will neutralize the toxic acidic waste of hydrochloric acid in the stomach that is created when the stomach is producing sodium bicarbonate to alkalize acidic foods or liquids ingested or to buffer metabolic acidic waste in the blood, interstitial fluids and intracellular fluids of the body and especially the brain.\nSteer clear of ALL sugars – Sugar in Any Form is Poison\nStay clear of ALL high sugar fruit, high sugar fruit juices, sugar junk foods and processed foods which are heavily acidic. As your body has a tendency to skew acidic over alkaline, it is important to reduce acid-promoting foods in your regular diet. Other acidic foods to be steer clear of include:\nall animal protein, including beef, chicken, duck, pork, and even fish\nall dairy products, including milk, cheese, yogurt and especially ice cream\nalcohol, including so-called nutritional products that contain alcohol or glycerin\nEat ALL green vegetables, sprouts, grasses and low sugar fruit\nall leafy greens such as kale, spinach, arugula and butter lettuce\nall low sugar fruit including cucumber, avocado, lemon, lime, green peppers, green olives and tomato\nall sprouts including bean, broccoli, alfalfa, etc.\nall green oils such as hemp, olive, and avocado\nall grasses including wheat grass, barley grass, lemon grass, oat grass, kamut grass, etc.\nseeds and nuts, especially almond and hazel nut milks\nWhat promotes your body to become more alkaline? Green vegetables green grasses, cold-pressed green oils and and green fruit! So steam those greens, munch on some raw sprouts, or blend a little broccoli and avocado into a smoothie. A vegetable-heavy, plant-based diet can tilt the pH scales in your favor in maintaining the alkaline design of the body.\nManage physical and emotional stress better\nPhysical and emotional stress increases metabolic acidic waste that impairs your body’s ability to detoxify these inflammatory toxins via the lungs, kidneys, bowels and skin. Too little sleep and too little low-impact exercise does it, too. When the body is in deep sleep the glymphatic system removes toxic acidic metabolic waste from the brain. If this does not happen the increase in brain acidosis leads to the death of brain cells. Balance your lifestyle, practice meditation techniques, and get plenty of movement and rest in to ensure that your body and especially your brain cells are not swimming in a pool of acid.\nThe glymphatic system is a functional acidic waste clearance pathway for the vertebrate central nervous system (CNS). The pathway consists of a para-arterial influx route for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to enter the brain parenchyma , coupled to a clearance mechanism for the removal of interstitial fluid (ISF) and extracellular solutes from the interstitial compartments of the brain and spinal cord .\nThe name “glymphatic system” was coined in 2012 by the Danish neuroscientist Maiken Nedergaard in recognition of its dependence upon glial cells and the similarity of its functions to those of the peripheral lymphatic system . This system activates only when you are in deep sleep, removing metabolic acidic waste from the functioning of brain cells. When these metabolic acids build-up they can cause brain damage leading to cognitive disfunction and the condition dementia, leading to Alzheimers.\nTo learn how to prevent or reverse the symptoms of dementia and Alzheimer’s dis-ease read, The pH Miracle revised and updated and The pH Miracle for Cancer – http://www.phoreveryoung.com\nTo order alkalizing food, juices, nutritional supplements and light therapy for the brain go to: http://www.phoreveryoung.com , wwwijuicenow.com, http://www.innerlightblue.com , http://www.phmiracle.com and http://www.phmiraclestore.com\nHari Prasad, Rajini Rao.

It does not smell either like brewed coffee or coffee essential oil which is made from roasted coffee. When roasted there is a change in the chemical and aromatic composition of coffee beans. Our Green coffee oil comes from a coffee farm in the South of Brazil organic certified by BCS Öko Garantie and the Brazilian Government Agency of Organic Program.\nGreen Coffee Bean Essential Oil is becoming increasingly popular in the cosmetics industry due to its high level of chlorogenic acid, which is a powerful antioxidant, and significant amounts of fatty acids and phytosterols which promote excellent moisture retention and rapid skin penetration.

This condition will show numerous colloidal symplasts of crystalized lactic acid associated with a mold called aspergillus niger. If you look closely at the edge of the colloidal symplast you will see a green tint associated with the acid, lactic acid. Lactic acid is a major metabolic acid associated with ALL sickness and disease beginning with enervation, then inflammation, then induration, then ulceration and finally degeneration or the symptoms associated with multiple sclerosis.\nMultiple sclerosis and the condition of metabolic acidosis can be determined through a Full Body 3D Bio-Electro Functionality testing which will quantify the chemistry and pH of the interstitial fluids of the largest organ of the body called the Interstitium.\nThe ideal pH of the Interstitium is 7.365. In the condition of Multiple Sclerosis the interstitial fluid pH will be less than 7.2, a sure sign of metabolic acidosis and the symptoms of inflammation and degeneration associated with MS. This would also be the same condition of the interstitial fluids of the Interstitium in ANY cancerous condition.\nIn the prevention of any inflammatory and/or degenerative or cancerous condition, it is critical to determine the chemistry and especially the pH of the Interstitial fluids and compare this data with the chemistry, including the pH of the blood plasma.\nWith this critical information a good doctor can prevent a serious health challenge and determine the efficacy of ANY treatments, whether medical or alternative.\nhttp://www.drroberyoung.com and http://www.phoreveryoung\nShare on X

Iodide is a form of iodine that is preferentially taken up by the thyroid gland. This product also supports the body’s normal detoxification of environmental, metabolic, gastrointestinal and respiratory acids, including the removal of heavy metals. Potassium Iodide helps shield (or block) the absorption of harmful radioactive iodine by the thyroid following a nuclear emergency.\nPotassium iodide is a salt, similar to table salt. Its chemical symbol is KI. It is routinely added to table salt to make it iodized. Potassium iodide, if taken in time and at the appropriate dosage, blocks the thyroid gland’s uptake of radioactive iodine and thus could reduce the risk of thyroid cancers and other diseases that might otherwise be caused by exposure to radioactive iodine that could be dispersed in a severe nuclear accident.\n• Potassium iodide is a blocker of thyroid radio-iodine uptake.\n• Supports the immune function\n• Promotes breast and prostate health\n• Combats iodine deficiency that causes hypothyroidism\n• Assist in regulation of healthy pulse and blood pressure\n• Promotes the destruction of harmful cells\n• Helps to decrease high blood sugar and cholesterol levels\n• Detoxifies the body from heavy metals, radioactive elements , free radicals and metabolic acids\n• Helps those who are overweight by improving the function of the gastro-intestinal tract\n• Improves the structure of hair and nails and helps them grow\n• Helps to detoxify smokers from strontium and cadmium\nIn stock & shipped within 2-3 business days. This item contains 150 tablets. Because of the volume of orders for KI, we cannot change or cancel your order once placed so please make sure that your order and address are correct.\nYoung pHorever Product Specifications\nThis product is Hypoallergenic & Pharmaceutical grade.\nThe United States government mandates the distribution of Potassium Iodide to the population within 10 miles of any nuclear power plant. The following information is taken directly from The U.S. Nuclear Regulation Commissions (NRC) website. links have been provide below.\nPotassium iodide is a salt, similar to table salt. Its chemical symbol is KI. It is routinely added to table salt to make it “iodized.” Potassium iodide, if taken in time and at the appropriate dosage, blocks the thyroid gland’s uptake of radioactive iodine and thus could reduce the risk of thyroid cancers and other diseases that might otherwise be caused by exposure to radioactive iodine that could be dispersed in a severe nuclear accident.\nWhat is the role of potassium iodide in radiological emergency preparedness?\nPotassium iodide is a special kind of protective measure in that it offers very specialized protection. Potassium iodide protects the thyroid gland against internal uptake of radioiodines that may be released in the unlikely event of a nuclear reactor accident. The purpose of radiological emergency preparedness is to protect people from the effects of radiation exposure after an accident at a nuclear power plant. Evacuation is the most effective protective measure in the event of a radiological emergency because it protects the whole body (including the thyroid gland and other organs) from all radionuclides and all exposure pathways. Administering KI can be a reasonable, prudent, and inexpensive supplement to in-place sheltering and evacuation.\nDoes this rule imply that America’s nuclear reactors are less safe?\nIn 2001, the NRC revised of its emergency preparedness regulation that requires that States with a population within the 10-mile emergency planning zone of commercial nuclear power plants consider including potassium iodide as a protective measure for the general public to supplement sheltering and evacuation in the unlikely event of a severe nuclear power plant accident. The rule does not imply that the present generation of nuclear power plants are less safe than previously thought. On the contrary, present indications are that nuclear power plant safety has significantly improved since the existing emergency preparedness requirements became effective after the Three Mile Island-2 accident in 1979.\nWhy does the rule require States to consider the use of potassium iodide instead of mandating its use?\nCan individual members of the public obtain potassium iodide?\nFDA has approved potassium iodide as an over-the-counter medication. As with any medication, individuals should check with their doctor or pharmacist before using it.\nThe United States Government provides Potassium Iodide to the population within 10-mile EPZ around nuclear power plants?\nThe population closest (within the 10 mile EPZ) to the nuclear power plant are at greatest risk of exposure to radiation and radioactive materials. The purpose of radiological emergency preparedness is to protect people from the effects of radiation exposure after an accident at a nuclear power plant. Evacuation is the most effective protective measure in the event of a radiological emergency because it protects the whole body (including the thyroid gland and other organs) from all radionuclides and all exposure pathways. However, in situations when evacuation is not feasible, in-place sheltering is substituted as an effective protective action. In addition, administering potassium iodide is a reasonable, prudent, and inexpensive supplement to both evacuation and sheltering. When the population is evacuated out of the area, and potentially contaminated foodstuffs are interdicted, the risk from further radioactive iodine exposure to the thyroid gland is essentially eliminated.\nUnited States Nuclear Regulatory Commission:\nFrequently asked questions about Potassium Iodide.\nFederal Policy on the Use of Potassium Iodide (10 CFR Part 50 RIN 3150–AG11)\nShare on X

(633, 'A California Jury Found Roundup Does Cause Cancer – A Big Reason For Buying Pesticide Free Organic Produce!', 'https://phoreveryoung.wordpress.com/2018/08/11/a-california-jury-found-roundup-does-cause-cancer-a-big-reason-for-buying-pesticide-free-organic-produce/', 'A California Jury Found Roundup Does Cause Cancer – A Big Reason For Buying Pesticide Free Organic Produce!\nAugust 10th, 2018 , a California court found that Monsanto (just acquired by the German Company Bayer) glyphosate Roundup does cause cancer, a jury has declared in an unprecedented trial into the health dangers of Monsanto’s weedkiller.\nAfter three days of deliberations, jurors on Friday sided with terminally-ill groundsman Dewayne Johnson, 46, who has just weeks to live, awarding him $250 million in punitive damages, plus nearly $40m in compensatory damages, bringing the total to $289m.\nSpecifically, in eight weeks of proceedings, the jury was left convinced that Monsanto’s product caused Johnson’s cancer.\nYou can read the entire story here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-6049007/Roundup-cancerous-jury-declares.html\nStudy Links Genetically Modified Organism’s (GMO’s) To Cancer, Liver/Kidney Damage & Severe Hormonal Disruption!\nThere is great news to report however, as this major GMO study has now been republished following its controversial retraction (under strong commercial pressure), with even more up to date information and a response to previous criticisms. You can read more about that here .\nThe study has now been published by Environmental Sciences Europe. (source)\nThe chronic toxicity study examined the health impacts on rats of eating  commercialized genetically modified (GM) maize, alongside Monsanto’s NK603 glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup.\nThe study found severe liver and kidney damage as well as hormonal disturbances in rats fed with GM maize in conjunction with low levels of Roundup that were below those permitted in most drinking water across Europe. Results also indicated high rates of large tumors and mortality in most treatment groups.\nThis study has now successfully passed through multiple rounds of rigorous peer review. Again, the study shows that Roundup-treated GM corn as well as the herbicide used on it increases cancer in rats. There are a number of studies that demonstrate the potential health risks of GM plants, this one in particular drew heavy criticism from industry scientists.\n“The major criticisms of the Seralini manuscript were that the proper strain of rats was not used and their numbers were too small. Neither criticism is valid. The strain of rat is that which is required by the FDA for drug toxicology, and the toxic effects were unambiguously significant. In fact, Monsanto published a similar study in the same journal eight years before using the same number and strain of rats. Their study was for 90 days and claimed no harm. In contrast, the Seralini study was for two years and did not see any tumors until after nine months. Therefore, it is clear that the short 90-day feeding paradigm is not sufficiently long to detect the carcinogenic effects of GM products. It takes a long time before low-level exposure to environmental toxins affect health. For example, a recent associated press report documented the dramatic increase in birth defects and cancer in areas  of Argentina that have grown GM soy for a decade. Given these facts, what was the justification of the editorial decision to retract the Seralini Manuscript?” (source)\nOther Studies Regarding GMOs and Herbicides\n1. Multiple Toxins From GMOs Detected In Maternal and Fetal Blood\nThe study used blood samples from thirty pregnant women and thirty non-pregnant women. The study also pointed out that the fetus is considered to be highly susceptible to the adverse affects of xenobiotics (foreign chemical substance found within an organism that is not naturally produced.)  This is why the study emphasizes that knowing more about GMOs is crucial, because environmental agents could disrupt the biological events that are required to ensure normal growth and development.\n2. DNA From Genetically Modified Crops Can Be Transferred Into Humans Who Eat Them\n“Our bloodstream is considered to be an environment well separated from the outside world and the digestive tract. According to the standard paradigm large macromolecules consumed with food cannot pass directly to the circulatory system. During digestion proteins and DNA are thought to be degraded into small constituents, amino acids and nucleic acids, respectively, and then absorbed by a complex active process and distributed to various parts of the body through the circulation system. Here, based on the analysis of over 1000 human samples from four independent studies, we report evidence that meal-derived DNA fragments which are large enough to carry complete genes can avoid degradation and through an unknown mechanism enter the human circulation system. In one of the blood samples the relative concentration of plant DNA is higher than the human DNA. The plant DNA concentration shows a surprisingly precise log-normal distribution in the plasma samples while non-plasma (cord blood) control sample was found to be free of plant DNA.” (2)\nThis still doesn’t mean that GMOs can enter into our cells, but given the fact GMOs have been linked to cancer (later in this article) it is safe to assume it is indeed a possibility. The bottom line is that we don’t know, and this study demonstrates another cause for concern.\n3. New Study Links GMOs To Gluten Disorders That Affect 18 Million Americans\nImmune activation and allergic response\nThe Institute for Responsible technology is a world leader in educating policy makers and the public about GMO foods and crops. The institute reports and investigates on the impact GM foods can have on health, environment, agriculture and more.\n4. Study Links Genetically Modified Corn to Rat Tumors\nIt was a very significant study, which obviously looks bad for the big bio tech companies like Monsanto, being the first and only long-term study under controlled conditions examining the possible effects of a diet of GMO maize treated with Monsanto roundup herbicide.\nThis study has since been retracted, which is odd, because the journal it was published in is a very well-known, reputable peer-reviewed scientific journal. In order for a study to be published here it has to go through a rigorous review process.\nIt’s also important to note that hundreds of scientists from around the world have condemned the retraction of the study. This study was done by experts, and a correlation between GMOs and these tumors can’t be denied, something happened.\nGM Crop Production is Lowering US Yields and Increasing Pesticide Use\n5. Glyphosate Induces Human Breast Cancer Cells Growth via Estrogen Receptors\nA study is published in the US National Library of Medicine (4) and will soon be published in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology. Several recent studies showed glyphosate’s potential to be an endocrine disruptor. Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that can interfere with the hormone system in mammals. These disruptors can cause developmental disorders, birth defects and cancer tumors. (6)\nGlyphosate exerted proliferative effects only in human hormone-dependent breast cancer. We found that glyphosate exhibited a weaker estrogenic activity than estradiol. Furthermore, this study demonstrated the additive estrogenic effects of glyphosate and genisein which implied that the use of contaminated soybean products as dietary supplements may pose a risk of breast cancer because of their potential additive estrogenicity. (6)\n6. Glyphosate Linked To Birth Defects\nA group of scientists put together a comprehensive review of existing data that shows how European regulators have known that Monsanto’s glyphosate causes a number of birth malformations since at least 2002. Regulators misled the public about glyphosate’s safety, and in Germany the Federal Office for Consumer Protection and Food Safety told the European Commission that there was no evidence to suggest that glyphosate causes birth defects. (7) (link might not work for some, if not you can access that report HERE )\nOur examination of the evidence leads us to the conclusion that the current approval of glyphosate and Roundup is deeply flawed and unreliable. In this report, we examine the industry studies and regulatory documents that led to the approval of glyphosate. We show that industry and regulators knew as long ago as the 1980s and 1990s that glyphosate causes malformation – but that this information was not made public. We demonstrate how EU regulators reasoned their way from clear evidence of glyphosate’s teratogenicity in industry’s own studies to a conclusion that minimized these findings in the EU Commission’s final review report (7)\nHere is a summary of the report:\nMultiple peer-reviewed scientific literature documenting serious health hazards posed by glyphosate\nIndustry (including Monsanto) has known since the 1980′s that glyphosate causes malformations in experimental animals at high doses\nIndustry has known since 1993 that these effects could also occur at lower and mid doses\nThe German government has known since at least 1998 that glyphosate causes malformations\nThe EU Commission’s expert scientific review panel knew in 1999 that glyphosate causes malformations\nThe EU Commission has known since 2002 that glyphosate causes malformations. This was the year DG SANCO division published its final review report, laying out the basis for the current approval of glyphosate\nAnother study published by the American Chemical Society, from the university of Buenos Aires, Argentina also showed that Glyphosate can cause abnormalities. (8)\nThe direct effect of glyphosate on early mechanisms of morphogenesis in vertebrate embryos opens concerns about the clinical findings from human offspring in populations exposed to glyphosate in agricultural fields (8)\n7. Study Links Glyphosate To Autism, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s\nWhen you ingest Glyphosate, you are in essence altering the chemistry of your body. It’s completely unnatural and the body doesn’t resonate with it. P450 (CYP) is the gene pathway disrupted when the body takes in Glyphosate. P450 creates enzymes that assist with the formation of molecules in cells, as well as breaking them down. CYP enzymes are abundant and have many important functions. They are responsible for detoxifying xenobiotics from the body, things like the various chemicals found in pesticides, drugs and carcinogens. Glyphosate inhibits the CYP enzymes. The CYP pathway is critical for normal, natural functioning of multiple biological systems within our bodies. Because humans that’ve been exposed to glyphosate have a drop in amino acid tryptophan levels, they do not have the necessary active signalling of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is associated with weight gain, depression and Alzheimer’s disease. (9)\n8. Chronically Ill Humans Have Higher Glyphosate Levels Than Healthy Humans\nA new study out of Germany concludes that Glyphosate residue could reach humans and animals through feed and can be excreted in urine. It outlines how presence of glyphosate in urine and its accumulation in animal tissues is alarming even at low concentrations. (10)\n9. Studies Link GMO Animal Feed to Severe Stomach Inflammation and Enlarged Uteri in Pigs\nA study by scientist Judy Carman, PhD that was recently published in the peer-reviewed journal Organic Systems outlines the effects of a diet mixed with GMO feed for pigs, and how it is a cause for concern when it comes to health. (11) Scientists randomized and fed isowean pigs either a mixed GM soy and GM corn (maize) diet for approximately 23 weeks (nothing out of the ordinary for most pigs in the United States), which is unfortunately the normal lifespan of a commercial pig from weaning to slaughter. Equal numbers of male and female pigs were present in each group. The GM diet was associated with gastric and uterine differences in pigs. GM pigs had uteri that were 25% heavier than non-GM fed pigs. GM-fed pigs had a higher rate of severe stomach inflammation with a rate of 32% compared to 125 of non-GM fed pigs.\nThe study concluded that pigs fed a GMO diet exhibited a heavier uteri and a higher rate of severe stomach inflammation than pigs who weren’t fed a GMO diet. Because the use of GMO feed for livestock and humans is so widespread, this is definitely another cause for concern when it comes to GMO consumption. Humans have a similar gastrointestinal tract to pigs, and these GM crops are consumed widely by people, especially in the United States.\n10. GMO risk assessment is based on very little scientific evidence in the sense that the testing methods recommended are not adequate to ensure safety. ( 12 )(13)(14)\nDeficiencies have been revealed numerous times with regards to testing GM foods.\n“The risk assessment of genetically modified (GM) crops for human nutrition and health has not been systematic. Evaluations for each GM crop or trait have been conducted using different feeding periods, animal models and parameters. The most common results are that GM and conventional sources include similar nutritional performance and growth in animals. However, adverse microscopic and molecular effects of some GM foods in different organs or tissues have been reported. While there are currently no standardized methods to evaluate the safety of GM foods, attempts towards harmonization are on the way. More scientific effort is necessary in order to build confidence in the evaluation and acceptance of GM foods.” ( 12 ) ( 15 )\nThe Russian government has ordered all relevant agencies to examine whether or not to continue imports of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) into the country. http://www.naturalnews.com/042325_GMO_ban_Russia_genetically_modified_crops.html\n( All other sources not listed here are highlighted throughout the article)\nhttp://www.enveurope.com/content/26/1/13\n(1)https://www.uclm.es/Actividades/repositorio/pdf/doc_3721_4666.pdf\n(2)http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0069805\n(3) http://rt.com/usa/gmo-gluten-sensitivity-trigger-343/\n(4)http://responsibletechnology.org/media/images/content/Press_Release_Gluten_11_25.pdf\n(5)http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0278691512005637\n(6) http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23756170\n(7) http://earthopensource.org/files/pdfs/Roundup-and-birth-defects/RoundupandBirthDefectsv5.pdf\n(8) http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/tx1001749\n(9) http://www.mdpi.com/1099-4300/15/4/1416\n(10) http://omicsonline.org/open-access/detection-of-glyphosate-residues-in-animals-and-humans-2161-0525.1000210.pdf\n(11) http://www.organic-systems.org/journal/81/8106.pdf\n(12)http://static.aboca.com/www.aboca.com/files/attach/news/risk_assessment_of_genetically_modified_crops_for_nutrition.pdf\n(13) Reese W, Schubert D.

This condition of the blood plasma leads to light headedness, cold hands, cold feet, forgetfulness, muddle thinking or brain fog, stroke, heart attack, tumor formation and internal bleeding, just to name a few.\nI have been studying the acid/alkaline conditions of the blood for over thirty years and have determined that all sickness and disease or body warming from acid rain is caused by the over-acidification of the blood and interstitial fluids. The following is a picture of the compartments, just below the dermis, that hold the acid rain until it can be released through perspiration, urination or defecation. The interstitial fluid compartments makes up the largest organ in the human body and is called the colloidal connective tissue of the Schade or the Interstitium.\nScientists have been studying the acid/alkaline conditions at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea. Natural carbon dioxide vents on the sea floor are showing scientists how carbon emissions will affect marine life.\nThe only way of reducing the impact of ocean acidification is the urgent reduction in CO2 emissions.\n“Studies have shown that the seas have become more acidic since the industrial revolution,” states Carol Turley. of the Plymouth Marine Laboratory.\n“It’s clear that marine food webs as we know them are going to alter, and biodiversity will decrease,” he told BBC News.\n“Those impacts are inevitable because acidification is inevitable – we’ve started it, and we can’t stop it.”\nCorals construct their external skeletons by extracting dissolved calcium carbonate from seawater and using it to form two minerals, calcite and aragonite. Molluscs use the same process to make their shells.\nAs water becomes more acidic, the concentration of calcium carbonate falls. Eventually there is so little that shells or skeletons cannot form.\nThe oceans are thought to have absorbed about half of the extra CO2 put into the atmosphere in the industrial age. This has lowered its pH by 0.1 pH is the measure of acidity and alkalinity.\nThe vast majority of liquids lie between pH 0 (highly acidic) and pH 14 (highly alkaline); 7 is the midpoint of the pH scale. Seawater is mildly alkaline with a “natural” pH of about 8.350.\nThe IPCC forecasts that ocean pH will fall by “between 0.14 and 0.35 units over the 21st Century, adding to the present decrease of 0.1 units since pre-industrial times.”\nAround the vents which Dr Hall-Spencer’s team investigated, in the Mediterranean Sea near the Italian coast, CO2 bubbling into the water forms a sort of natural laboratory for studying the impacts of acidified water on marine life.\nGlobally, the seas now have an average pH of about 8.1 – down about 0.1 since the dawn of the industrial age.\nAround the vents, it fell as low as 7.4 in some places. But even at 7.8 to 7.9, the number of species present was 30% down compared with neighboring areas.\nCoral was absent, and species of algae that use calcium carbonate were displaced in favour of species that do not use it.\nSnails were seen with their shells dissolving. There were no snails at all in zones with a pH of 7.4.\nMeanwhile, sea grasses thrived, perhaps because they benefit from the extra carbon in the water.\nThese observations confirm that some of the processes seen in laboratory experiments and some of the predictions made by computer models of ocean ecosystems do also happen in the real world.\n“I can’t count the number of times that scientific talks end with ‘responses have not yet been documented in the field’,” said Elliott Norse, President of the Marine Conservation Biology Institute (MCBI).\n“This paper puts that to rest for several ecologically important marine groups.”\nThe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggests that without measures to restrain carbon dioxide emissions, ocean pH is likely to fall to about 7.8 by 2100.\nThis suggests that some of the impacts seen around the Mediterranean vents might be widespread. “I think we will see the same pattern in other parts of the world, because we’re talking about keystone species such as mussels and limpets and barnacles being lost as pH drops,” said Dr Hall-Spencer. The IPCC suggests that some areas, notably the Southern Ocean, might feel the impacts at lower concentrations of CO2.\nLast month, scientists reported that water with CO2 levels high enough to be “corrosive” to marine life was rising up off the western US coast.\nBottom water naturally contains more CO2 than at shallower depths. This scientific team argues that human emissions have pushed these levels even higher, contributing to pH values as low 7.5 in waters heavily used by US fishermen.\n“If [pH 7.8] is a universal ‘tipping point’, then it indicates that sections of the western coast waters off North America may have passed this threshold during periods when this upwelling of waters high in CO2 occurs,” commented Carol Turley from Plymouth Marine Laboratory (PML), who was not involved in the Mediterranean Sea study (PML is not affiliated with Plymouth University).\nOrganisms such as coral are also damaged by rising temperatures, and studies are ongoing into the combined effect of a warming and acidifying ocean.\nSeagrasses were among the few beneficiaries of more acid waters. There is much to learn. Scientists will announce the inauguration of the European Project on Ocean Acidification (Epoca), a four-year, 16m euro (£12.5m) initiative aiming to find some answers.\nStudying the impacts may prove easier than doing anything about them.\n“The reason that the oceans are becoming more acidic is because of the CO2 emissions that we are producing from burning fossil fuels,” observed Dr Turley.\nThe following picture is the Acid Rain over Los Angeles, California.\n“Add CO2 to seawater and you get carbonic acid; its simple chemistry, and therefore certain with a pH of less than 3.00.\n“This means that the only way of reducing the future impact of ocean acidification is the urgent, substantial reduction in CO2 emissions.”\nAccording to Dr. Young, “ocean acidification is the macro view of our oceans becoming sick and tired and the primary causative factor in global warming. The death and extinction of marine life is the result of this acidification which can be prevented with alkalizing measures. Such measures would include stop dumping sewage waste and garbage into our oceans.”\n“Body acidification is the micro view of our internal oceans becoming sick and tired and the primary causative factor in body warming or all sickness and dis-ease. The death and extinction of the human race will be a result of an over-acidification of the blood and interstitial fluids due to an inverted way of living, eating, breathing and thinking. This is what scientist have determined happened to the extinction of the Mayan Race. We can prevent all sickness and disease (cancer, heart dis-ease, diabetes, etc.) and the potential extinction of the human race by learning how to maintain the alkaline design of our body.\nTo learn

(637, 'What Is Our Greatest Health Risk?', 'https://phoreveryoung.wordpress.com/2018/07/01/what-is-our-greatest-health-risk/', 'What Is Our Greatest Health Risk?\n“The World is not dangerous because of those who do harm, but because of those who look at it and do nothing.” – Albert Einstein\nThe biggest health threat to the Human Body is electromagnetic pollution. The explosion of Samsung phones, iPhones WiFi, WiMax, 4G network, video game consoles, remote-control toys, electric cars and the soon to be released the 5G network, has fundamentally changed our electrical environment. You can’t see it, you can’t taste it, you can’t touch it, you can’t smell it; but the air all around us is increasingly filled with electromagnetic radiation (EMR) that is penetrating our bodies and disrupting our body chemistry – perhaps forever.\nEvery moment of every day, invisible fields of toxic fields of energy are striking our bodies like tiny darts, triggering dozens of bio-chemical reactions, which undermine our health and stealthily lay the groundwork for sickness and disease.\nAs Nobel-prize nominee, Dr. Robert Becker described in “The Body Electric,” our brains; our hearts and every one of the seventy trillion cells in our bodies operate on electrical impulses. These minuscule electrical fields can easily be disrupted by the electropollution around us, especially when frequency wavelength is in the brainwave region (0-33 hertz), or matches up with and resonates with electrically-charged particles like ions and chemicals or organs of the body.\nDr. Becker also found that healing only takes place if the current at the point of injury is negatively charged. When it turns positive, the healing process shuts down. So, even our ability to heal is fundamentally dependent upon electrical fields and thus subject to interference from ambient EMR.\nIn the 1960s NASA found that astronauts would lose up to 50% of their bone mass in just weeks without the presence of the earth’s natural electromagnetic field. Later an artificial version of the earth’s electromagnetic field was added to the spacecraft, which reduced the problem.\nHuman life could not exist without the presence of natural electromagnetic fields. But what about the explosion of artificial magnetic fields around us, how are these burgeoning signals affecting us? Since the early 1960s, there has been an ongoing debate between scientists, government, industry and the military as to the health impacts on humans from electromagnetic radiation. In fact more than 16,000 studies have tackled the issue. Now, more than 6000 studies connect wireless and other EMR with more than 122 biological effects.\nAnother 10,000 fail to find the connection. US regulators and policy-makers are using these numbers as a rationale to continue to approve the deployment of unproven technologies. They typically claim that there is no consensus in the science. Despite the science showing a better than 1 in 3 chance (38%) that wireless technologies are causing harmful bio-effects, these regulators and policy-makers are betting that these ‘untested’ technologies won’t make us sick.\nThe US government is neither tracking the health effects of these newly adopted technologies nor has it funded a single non-classified study on the biological effects of wireless technologies since the late 1990’s. During that time twelve new ubiquitous technologies have been rolled-out, including public WiFi, 3rd generation (3G) cell phones, 3G Cellular networks, Bluetooth, WiMax, DECT cordless phones, 4G and 5G cell phones have now been deployed in cars with GPS, phones and devices. Meanwhile the fourteen international scientists, who produced the BioInitiative Report ( www.bioinitiative.org ) document more than two thousand, mostly independent studies, which connect wireless and other EMR with the following: DNA damage, brain cancer, Alzheimer’s, breast cancer, children’s cancers (leukemia), immune system dysfunction, cardiac symptoms, alteration of melatonin production, inflammation and electromagnetic sensitivity. The 630 page report also links numerous modern age symptoms such as headaches, sleep disturbances, concentration issues, fuzzy thinking, joint and muscle pain and memory loss to wireless.\nAs science is often crippled by abstract experiments with unproven simplifying assumptions, a better way to judge and validate scientific findings may be to look at the key health trends:\nBeginning in the 1980’s at the advent of the ‘wireless revolution’ a profound change in our national health began to quietly unfold. It began with the emergence of a bevy of previously-unknown auto-immune diseases like chronic fatigue (CFS), lupus, environmental illness (EI) and fibromyalgia. Soon an explosion in neurological disorders began with Lou Gehrig’s disease (ALS), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s all showing a dramatic increase. Next, the incidence of certain cancers began to suddenly rise such as melanoma, testicular, lymphoma, breast and prostate cancers. Then, in the 1990s, ailments like diabetes, attention deficit disorder (ADD/ ADHD) and Autism began to explode.\nIn the past fifteen years sleep disturbances and mood disorders have sky-rocketed. In the 1970s only about 4% suffered from sleep issues. It is now closer to 60%.\nMeanwhile more than 18 million Americans are clinically diagnosed as depressed. Depression in children is growing at 23%. It should be no surprise that the top selling pharmaceutical drugs are for pain, depression, and sleep.\nWhat has happened to our health?\nIt might surprise you to know that the 1950s, when there were few health clubs; the American diet was loaded with fat; vitamin supplements were rare; executives downed three martinis at lunch and everyone smoked like a smokestack, may have been the healthiest decade ever. Expectations for getting cancer were only 1 in 6; it is now 1 in 2 for men. Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis and most modern autoimmune diseases were unheard of. Neurological disorders like Parkinson’s and ALS were rare. Diabetes was only beginning to emerge and heart disease for young people was unusual.\nIn the previous three decades, we had extended the average life expectancy from 55 to 72 years – a 31% gain. Well here’s the good news: we now live to 80 – 8 more years. But more than half of that eight year gain is spent in a nursing home, suffering from either dementia, or Alzheimer’s.\nWhat has happened to our health?\nDespite the many advances in medicine during the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the US and other industrialized nations have been experiencing explosions in disease and pervasive ill-health. While many scientists and the pharmaceutical industry are rushing to find drugs to manage the symptoms of these illnesses, almost no progress has been made to find root causes. Theories abound on the causes and underlying factors for the big six diseases: cancer, heart disease, diabetes, neurological disorders (Alzheimer’s et al), autoimmune disorders and allergies (asthma).\nWe hear incessantly about the importance of an alkaline diet and daily exercise; the impacts from smoking; and exposures to chemicals and other toxins in our environment. When you add highly acidic electromagnetic fields of energy you have the main actors in the emerging health drama!\nIs electro pollution a unifying factor in the exploding diseases that are making us all so sick?\nThere has been two landmark events that shed new light on the science, linking EMR from wireless technologies to broad health impacts, dozens of biological effects and virtually all of the currently exploding diseases.\nMeanwhile in a spectacular announcement that received very little coverage in August 2010, noted epidemiologist, Samuel Milham, MD makes the link between the growth of electrification and the incidence of four of the big six diseases. In “Dirty Electricity: Electrification and the Diseases of Civilization.” Dr. Milham connects dirty electricity with heart disease, cancer, diabetes, neurological disorders like ALS and suicide.\nDirty electricity refers to unusable electrical energy, which is caused by the interference of electronics on the power lines within your home, office or public building. It is virtually everywhere. Dirty electricity is created by fluorescent lights, dimmer switches, cell phone chargers, plasma TVs, laptop computers and the dramatic increase of electronics all around us. Seven studies have shown that what is considered electrical noise on power lines is also biologically-active. (Havas, Milham, Morgan et al). These studies, many of which were performed in schools, shows that this electrical noise may be causing, or worsening health conditions such as Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), chronic fatigue, diabetes (glucose rise) and asthma.\nFour of the dis-eases most associated with inflammation – cancer, heart disease, diabetes and neurological disorders are directly linked to dirty electricity. Both Dr. Zorach Glaser’s bibliography and the BioInitiative Report ( www.bioinitiative.org ) separately connect electrical fields from wireless technologies with inflammation.\n“Inflammation is a symptom of increased metabolic, dietary and environmental acidity, such as lactic acid, which can be measured in the extracellular fluids including the blood and the interstitial fluids which makes up more than 66 percent of all body fluids,” according to Robert O Young PhD.\nIn addition, Dr. Young states, “the inflammation connection can be confirmed through pH and chemistry testing of the body fluids and is the most important health issue of our time.” Electromagnetic frequencies from wireless technologies according to Dr. Young causes inflammation and inflammation leads to:\nNeurological disorders like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS and MS\nAttention Deficit Disorder, as TIME Magazine proposed in “The Fires Within,” then the mystery of these diseases, which have been exploding since the advent of the wireless revolution in the 1980’s has been finally solved!\nMeanwhile a World of the smart grid, super WiFi, 4G and 5G even a more toxic cellular network of electromagnetic pollution is all around us and flooding our body. With these powerful and ‘untested’ wireless technologies which have been deployed Worldwide, the time has never been better to pause and ask the question:\nAre YOU willing to continue to use these wireless technologies when WE now KNOW they are making us sick and tired?\nTo attend a health and fitness Retreat go to: www.phmiracleretreat.com\nAttend a World Conference in San Antonio, Texas

Today, most all fluids being tested are a portion of the extracellular fluids which represent only 20% of all body fluids. The extracellular fluids which include the blood plasma is around 5 liters compared to the interstitial fluids which is 20 liters.  The plasma is buffered to maintain a constant pH of 7.365 to 7.4. The interstitial fluids collect all of the acidic waste from metabolism, respiration, diet and environment from the extracellular fluids and holds these acidic wastes in compartments for alkalization and then elimination via the lymphatic system and then through the pores of the skin. The compartments containing the interstitial fluids makes up what is call the largest organ of the body – the Interstitium.\nCurrently medical science knows very little about this organ and its purpose and yet it is of critical importance in the prevention and treatment of ALL sickness and disease, including cancer.\nIf you would like to learn more about the Interstitium and the importance of the pH and chemistry of the Interstitial Fluids, read the published scientific article, “Alkalizing Nutritional Therapy in the Treatment and Reversal of All Cancerous Conditions,” by Robert O Young CPT, MSc, DSc, PhD, Naturopathic Practitioner and Galina Migalko, MSc, MD, NMD\nAs it pertains to the question above there is only one place in the World where you can have a quantitative analysis of the interstitial fluids, including pH, chemistry and other metabolic markers compared to the conventional blood tests of the extracellular blood plasma fluids. This will then give the client/patient a more comprehensive analysis for diagnosis and the efficacy of the treatment protocol recommended by the physician.\nhttp://www.drrobertyoung , http://www.universalmedicalimaging.com , http://www.phmiracleretreat.com\nNote: The following are the calculations used to determine the percentages and liters of all the fluids of the body:\nMale = 60% Female = 50% Babies = 75% Elderly = 45% Calculation: 1 Kg = 1 L water volume. 150# = 70Kg. 60% of 70Kg. = approx 40Kg. 40Kg = 40L. Fluid compartments. 2 main ones. ICF = 2/3 volume of fluid in body. ECF = 1/3 volume of fluid in body. Plasma = 20% Interstitial fluid = 80% Calculation: 40L = fluid volume. 2/3 = 25L of ICF. 1/3 = 15L of ECF. NB: Blood = 3-4% of weight.\nShare on X (Opens in new window) X\nShare on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest', '[-0.030426746234297752, -0.06568002700805664, 0.008466132916510105,

And to further increase a healthy lifestyle attitude, many people are moving to reduce their intake of animal flesh and dairy products.\nScientists have found that people who follow a strict plant-based alkaline diet reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by 40%! Such people also reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by 40%! Even patients with blocked arteries with plague had an excess of 90% success rate in unblocking their arteries, partially or fully!  Patients with risk of hypertension decreased their risk by almost 35%! Also, vegetarians showed very low levels of cholesterol and low-density lipoproteins, also known as the bad cholesterol wrongly when the real problem was the result of an acidic lifestyle and diet. Furthermore, the plant-based alkaline diet has also proven more effective in reducing acidic or toxic weight held in the connective and fatty tissue which is the true cause of obesity helping people with increased weight loss.\nNow the question arises as to how vegetarian and vegan diets protect the heart and vascular system. There seem to be ample reasons why and how plant-based alkaline diets prove healthier for the heart than the heavy animal flesh diets. It has come to light that plants, in general, divulge more benefits in reducing metabolic and dietary acids, while eating meat increases acidic and toxic waste with certain risks to the heart and vascular system specifically. For example, plants are highly rich in fiber phytonutrients, which are known as a source to reduce the acids that cause inflammation or oxidative stress.\nAlmost six to eight million adults in the U.S. don’t eat fish, meat or poultry. Several million more have eliminated red meat but still eat fish or chicken. Heart disease is responsible for more than 600,000 deaths in the U.S. each year, and it maintains to be the leading cause of death around the globe. These findings highlight that people are more indulged in diets that are animal flesh and blood inclusive rather than plant-based and alkaline based.\nHowever, these numbers prove that if people would move towards a vegetarian and then alkalizing plant-based diet and also move away from consumption of animal flesh and blood, that this alone would improve humanity’s heart condition, health, wellness and fitness substantially. As Dr. Kahleova states, “with a dash of hope and positivity, heart disease may be the world’s leading cause of death but it doesn’t have to be.”\nhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5466944/\nThe pH Miracle revised and updated, The pH Miracle for Diabetes, The pH Miracle for Weight Loss, The pH Miracle for Cancer, Alkalizing Nutritional Therapy in the Prevention and Treatment of Any Cancerous Condition , Metabolic and Dietary Acids Are the Fuel That Lights the Fuse That Ignites Inflammation That Leads to Cancer and The Cause and Cure for Atherosclerosis and Coronary Artery Disease by Robert O.

Well welcome to the club! It seems there’s always a new diet trend that promises to help you lose weight, gain muscle, have more energy and “look” fit. With all of the trendy diets in and out of the media it’s easy to get confused on what to eat and which diet plan to choose. Today I’m diving into, and breaking down, the top 6 asked about diets that have peaked people’s curiosity with their promise to deliver real results.\nThe trendy ketogenic diet is all the rage for weight loss and it seems to be one that everyone is asking most about. This program focuses on a low carb and high healthy fat diet with protein falling into the moderate consumption window. The Ketogenic Diet which is also referred to as “Keto” works to deplete the body’s glucose storage so your body burns fat. It does this by limiting the amount of carbohydrates consumed. In the Keto diet people are aiming to consume around 5-10% of their total calories as carbohydrates. Of course, as with any diet these numbers fluctuate based off of the individual but 5-10% is the goal.\nThe point of the Ketogenic diet is to put your body into a state of ketosis where the body begins to burn fat for fuel instead of sugar. This is great for fat loss, improving insulin resistance and managing the symptoms from chronic conditions. To get into ketosis, carbs and sugars need to be limited to the bare minimum. This means no pastas, breads, oats, cereals or anything else considered a grain containing any significant amount of carbohydrates. This also means sugar whether refined or from a natural source (like honey) is strictly prohibited.\nSo you may be thinking, what can you eat on this diet? The Ketogenic Diet is composed mostly of healthy fats including avocados, nuts, full fat dairy, seeds, and healthy oils like MCT, olive oil and more. It also encourages a lot of vegetable consumption which is beneficial for any health goal. The vegetable choices tend to lean towards the non-starchy vegetable group such as spinach, kale, cucumbers, cauliflower, asparagus and any dark leafy greens.\nOne of the biggest downfalls of the Keto Diet is that it doesn’t emphasize the quality of the foods especially when it comes to the protein sources. Abiding by Keto Diet could mean an organic certified humane chicken breast but it could also mean a highly preserved, hormone injected, factory farmed slice of bacon. There’s no regulation or standard for quality in the Keto Diet.\nKeto has made a name for itself for its impressive ability to aid in weight loss, it’s extreme improvement in energy levels and the impressive health benefits for people suffering with any kind of chronic disease.\nThis Diet Could Change Your Life\nFor your average American the weight loss benefits and increased energy alone are tempting and convincing results. For people with chronic conditions this may be considered a life-changing diet as followers note significant improvements in their overall health, reduced symptoms and slowed disease progression while adhering to a Ketogenic Diet. In some cases, Keto is actually being utilized as a treatment protocol for patients suffering from some chronic diseases.\nIf you don’t like strict diets then Keto is definitely not for you. Although there’s no real calorie counting here it is important that I mention: to stay in a state of ketosis you have to maintain a certain percentage of carbohydrates consistently. For a lot of people this may be extremely frustrating and, for many, it just may not work with their lifestyle.\nIf the Keto concepts interests you, but without the strictness you’re going to love its sister-diet Paleo.\nFor most of humankind existence we have eaten in a hunter-gatherer fashion. Hundreds of years ago things like spray butter or colorful cereals didn’t exist and maybe that is for good reasons. If we’re being honest, our bodies are slightly confused by these types of processed foods and has trouble breaking them down properly for clean digestion. The Paleo Diet takes us back in time joining our hunter-gatherer ancestors removing dairy products, grains, refined sugar, flour, and anything processed.\nThe Paleo Diet focuses on nourishing the body with foods that were consumed by our ancestors. This includes protein, vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds and healthy fats. This diet is perfect for people who are looking for a healthy lifestyle change. There is no counting calories or percentages, simply eat whole foods whenever you’re hungry. Avoiding processed foods likely increases the quality and nutrient density of the food as well. Paleo encourages good quality meats and vegetables to live the healthy paleo lifestyle.\nPaleo takes us back to the basics. A good rule of thumb is if a caveman didn’t eat it then you shouldn’t either. What I like most about Paleo is it is extremely easy to follow. There’s a clear list of foods that you can and can’t eat and there’s no measuring or weighing or calculating to figure out if you’re accurately following this diet. Paleo is simple! Get rid of the processed foods and replace them with nutrient-rich, whole foods. This diet can realistically work for anyone at any age. It helps replace bad eating habits with healthier alternatives. This is for people who want a really sustainable, overall healthy lifestyle-type diet.\nAlthough Paleo is easy to adhere, sustainable and nutrient dense it is not necessarily for everyone. Paleo is a great diet for most people with the exception of some high-level athletes who may find it more challenging. The lack of carbs can leave some athletes feeling weak and less able to perform.\n3. The Alkaline Diet (Dr. Robert Young’s pH Miracle Diet) aka Tom Brady’s Diet, Tony Robbin’s Diet, Kelly Ripa’s Diet, Gwyneth Paltrow’s Diet, David Beckham/s Diet, Prince Harry and Meghan.s Diet, Madonna’s Diet, Elle Macpherson’s Diet, Cindy Crawford’s Diet, Serena William’s Diet, just to name a few.\nPutting aside your personal feelings towards the Patriots NFL team, there is no debating that Tom Brady’s health and performance at the age of 40 is something to take note of. Tom Brady has stated that his diet and physical regimen has allowed him to play as a quarterback for the Patriots well into his 30s and now into his 40s. His diet is very similar to the Alkaline Diet which focuses on creating an alkaline state in the body by choosing foods that fight acidity and promote alkalinity.\nYes, we’re taking it all the way back to high school chemistry class with a lesson on pH. Our bodies function ideally between a pH of 7.35 and 7.45 meaning were slightly alkaline. The Alkaline diet and the diet that Tom Brady seemingly follows is based on the idea of eliminating things that create acidity in the body. This includes eliminating alcohol, grains, conventional meats, eggs, processed foods, flour and refined sugar. Dairy is limited to yogurt and kefir strictly for the benefits of the probiotics. All other dairy is a no-go for the alkaline diet.\nLearn more about the Alkaline Diet: http://www.drrobertyoung.com\nHow To Achieve Tom Brady’s Peak Performance\nMaybe you’re not trying to win the next Super Bowl but I’m sure you could still benefit from the amazing properties of an alkaline based diet. Tom Brady does this by fueling his body with alkalizing foods like brussel sprouts, kale, sweet potatoes and even dandelion greens. He avoids things like GMOs, dairy, MSG or high sodium foods, processed foods and even nightshade vegetables for their inflammatory properties. His chef explained that he tries to shop as organic, local and natural as possible.\nAlkaline Living, Is It For You?\nOnce again this is a diet that doesn’t require counting or measuring or calculating. It is simple and straightforward as to what you can and can’t eat making it easy to follow. The Alkaline Diet is known for many health benefits including its ability to aid in the protection of bone density and muscle mass. It also lowers inflammation in the body which may single handedly be the reason that at age 40 Tom Brady is still out on the field. In addition to those benefits being slightly alkaline helps the overall immune function and metabolism. To learn more about the extensive benefits check out this article – https://phoreveryoung.wordpress.com/ and https://www.amazon.com/Robert-O.-Young/e/B001ILKCSU/ref=sr_tc_2_0?qid=1528001410&sr=8-2-ent\nThe Whole 30 diet is designed as a reset for your health in which you focus on consuming whole foods for 30 days. Seems pretty logical right? The answer is yes because it is. Once again there is no counting or weighing or calculating for this diet you are strictly eating real foods for 30 days. The goal is to strip away the processed foods that cause the sickness and illness in our bodies in the first place.\nThis diet came about by Melissa Hartwig who realized the need for a truly healthy 30 day reset diet plan. The processed foods we so regularly consume lead to all sorts of health issues including inflammation, hormone imbalances, leaky gut, energy issues and food sensitivities just to name a few. Eating whole foods will help you to get rid of things in your diet that harm the gut microbiome and create inflammation which is now linked to almost any condition you can think of. The goal is to eat whole foods that have not been processed for 30 days to reset your health.\nBasically, The Whole 30 Diet is paleo on steroids. The Whole 30 Diet doesn’t allow for sugar of any kind which includes maple syrup and raw honey. This diet cuts out sneaky sugars and the unnatural ingredients in things like artificial sweeteners, alcohol and soy products. During the 30 days you are not supposed to consume any grains, legumes or dairy products. Instead you will be eating vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, eggs, fish, meat, poultry, and some healthy oils and fats.\nCan You Actually Do This For 30 Days?\nIf you’re looking for total body reboot this is the plan for you! It is great for people wanting to rebalance the body and reset. It works extremely well for all health goals and it is only for 30 days…You can do anything for 30 days, right?\nThe two diets or eating styles that I am always getting questions about is Intermittent Fasting and Carb Cycling. There seems to be a lot of confusing chatter about these two and what they actually entail. Although they are considered less of a diet and more of a healthy eating style they are extremely important and have been proven to show amazing results for fat loss, weight management, energy, and even brain clarity.\nWhen was the last time you fasted? If you’re new to this whole “fasting” trend then you may be totally confused and thinking “why in the world would I purposely fast? Isn’t that something we would want to avoid?”\nFasting is extremely beneficial for weight loss, focus, energy and the promotion of less insulin resistance in the individual. Fasting has been widely used among many cultures for spiritual reasons as well. A fast can last anywhere from 14 hours to days, weeks and even months.\nThe newest fasting diet trend is Intermittent Fasting which pushes your fasting window from a regular 12 hours fasting window (the amount of time between dinner and the followings days breakfast) to anywhere between a 14 and 20 hours.\nIntermittent Fasting typically looks like eating your meals anywhere between noon and 8pm at night. Some people push it further and break the fast near 1 or 3pm but it is all a personal preference and its best to start small and build up over time.\nWho said you shouldn’t skip breakfast? Intermittent Fasting actually proves to be a really beneficial reason to skip breakfast or at least to push it off a few hours.\nWhen fasting intermittently you aren’t actually reducing calories but rather shifting them to later in the day. If you normally eat 2,000 calories/day don’t stop, simply push all those calories closer together. With Intermittent Fasting you eat more per meal but with less meals while keeping the daily caloric intake the same.\nHow Do You Do Intermittent Fasting?\nIntermittent Fasting is extremely flexible and you can alternate the days you choose to fast. If you want to try this Monday, Wednesday, Friday go ahead! If you’d prefer to do the fasting over the weekend that works too. It is flexible and you can always start with one day at a time. Since hunger is often mistaken for thirst make sure to drink plenty of water the morning during a fasting day.\nIs Intermittent Fasting For Me?\nIntermittent fasting is great for any lifestyle. It’s easy and simple to follow but definitely something you want to ease into. Start with a 12 hour fast and increase it over time to 14, 16 and even 20 hours. Play around with the amount of days you fast each week. Everyone is different so finding a healthy balance is always the best option for you! Also, never forget to listen to your body. If you are hungry make sure you eat! A little trick to new fasters: drink a glass of water right when you wake up.\nSome women may find intermittent fasting difficult resulting in low energy and potentially even causing hormonal imbalances. It is even more crucial for women to listen to their bodies and not deprive themselves as women tend to have a more powerful defense response to lack of food or starvation sensations. Read more about this here\nOpposite to Paleo, intermittent fasting is extremely beneficial for athletes due to its ability to help preserve and encourage muscle growth. It can be paired with Keto, Carb Cycling or any other diet! You can plan your fasting days based around your workout style and training regimen to optimize energy and recovery times.\nCarb Cycling is exactly what it sounds like; the cycling of carbs. The whole idea of this eating style is to eat high carbs on certain days and low carb on other days. No calorie counting or restrictions necessary with this type of eating style. This fluctuation between high and low carb days helps with weight loss, satiation and cravings, balancing hormones, and energy. It is also a beneficial eating style for people trying to manipulate their food to maximize lean muscle growth.\nCarb cycling is amazing for getting past a weight loss/gain plateau. When you’re feeling stuck and your diet and training regimen isn’t yielding the results they once did, maybe it’s time to switch it up and try something new like carb cycling.\nIf you like carbs and don’t see the appeal of a no-carb or low-carb diet like Keto or Paleo this could be the perfect option for you! Carb cycling is great for someone who enjoys a healthy balance of carbohydrates but would also love the weight loss benefits of alternating high and low carb days. This is especially helpful for individuals who do not want to cut out carbs depriving themselves of foods they enjoy. It is also important to note that cutting out a food group to just reintroduce it later can cause the weight to return. This is a problem seen in so many of the weight loss diets out there. Carb Cycling works well because you never completely cut something out, yet you still reap the benefits of low carb days and high carb days.\nHere is a great article further explaining carb cycling, how to do it, who it benefits, and what it can look like day to day.\nThe best diet for you is the healthy one that you will actually follow long term. I don’t mean the one you start on Monday and you’ve quit by Wednesday. Which of these diets or eating styles seem like they could work for you and your lifestyle long term?\nBefore you jump into any of these diets in hopes that you will lose that extra 10 pounds for summer, please wait. Diets and healthy lifestyle changes take time and are something you need to commit to for weeks, even months to see real results. Pick a diet that you will genuinely enjoy and one that works for your lifestyle.\nMy Secret: All Of These Diets Will Work\nI’ll let you in on a little secret. Every single diet discussed above will work for you. They all focus on limiting sugar, preservatives and processed foods replacing them with more whole food nutrient-dense options. That is a recipe for success for just about everyone!\nThere are a plethora of different diets out there with new ones introduced regularly.\nOne of the most important things to know about any diet program is that it works best if and when it becomes a healthy lifestyle habit. Diets only work for a finite amount of time, whereas healthy lifestyle changes are the true way to achieve and maintain long-term results.\nRyan Marcotte before and after pictures following Dr. Young’s pH Miracle lifestyle and diet for 12 weeks.

Who is the Seventh doctor?', 'https://phoreveryoung.wordpress.com/2018/05/31/there-are-actually-seven-doctors-who-is-the-seventh-doctor/', 'There Are Actually Seven Doctors. Who is the Seventh doctor?\nThe Seventh Doctor is LOVE! and is the Greatest of ALL Doctors!\nLove is what makes the World go round. It is love that heals a broken heart. Love is the the theory of everything.\nWhen Albert Einstein proposed the theory of relativity, very few understood him, and what I will reveal now to transmit to mankind will also collide with the misunderstanding and prejudice in the world.\nI assume you are aware of Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity but are you familiar with Einstein’s proposed theory of love that controls everything? His theory was magically brought to the Big Screen in two incredible movies several years ago, The Theory of Everything or the life of Stephen Hawking and the movie Interstellar. Both of these movies shared the ultimate and simple hypothesis of Einstein that there is a universal force that controls everything and that force is LOVE!\nI have been giving great thought concerning this theory of love in relationship to a Mother’s Love and how a Mother loves her new born child. From my own perspective, as a man, how could I ever understand this love and its power other than knowing it is real having been on the receiving end of my own Mother’s love. My Mother loved me dearly. She was always looking out for me and trying to protect me. It has been said that a child is like a Mother’s heart running around outside her body. This statement of love makes sense to me because a woman has the God given power to give of herself in love to bring into the World a manifestation of that love – a child! .\nIn the words of John Lennon’s song, “all YOU need is love, all YOU need is love, all YOU need is love, all YOU need is love.” Can you hear yourself singing this Beatles song in your head – that is a simple example of the power of love.\nSeveral months ago and while I was asleep I felt this power of love in a dream where I saw and heard myself singing a song to someone who I love and care about, Fly Me To The Moon. In the morning when I awoke from my dream I was singing this love song again having never sung this song before wondering how this was possible. And then I remembered that from love my parents brought me into the World! From love God organized the Universe and Worlds without number! From love God gave HIS only begotten son! From love God promised each of us eternal life! From love the sun shines upon us all! For love is light and light is love and without love there would be no light just darkness! I suddenly realized that we long and live for love! Love is all we need and what makes our World go round.\nThere is an extremely powerful force that, so far, science has not found a formal explanation to. It is a force that includes and governs all others, and is even behind any phenomenon operating in the universe and has not yet been identified by science. This universal force is LOVE.\nWhen scientists looked for a unified theory of the universe they forgot the most powerful unseen force – LOVE. Love is Light, that enlightens those who give and receive it. Love is gravity, because it makes some people feel attracted to others. Love is power, because it multiplies the best we have, and allows humanity not to be extinguished in their blind selfishness. Love unfolds and reveals. For love we live and die for. Love is God and God is Love.\nThis force explains everything and gives meaning to life. This is the variable that we have ignored for too long. Maybe because we are afraid of love because it is the only energy in the universe that man has not learned to drive at will.\nTo give visibility to love, I made a simple substitution in what I believe is my most important equation ever discovered. If instead of E = mc2, we can accept that the energy to heal the world can be obtained through love multiplied by the speed of light squared, we will arrive at a very important conclusion! And that conclusion is, LOVE! The equation is now complete as follows: L = E = mc2.\nLOVE is THE most powerful force there is in the World, in the Galaxy, in the Universe and in the Worlds without number! LOVE is the missing link in Einstein’s theory of reality and when added completes his equation. LOVE is the source of all energy, all power, all healing and of ALL creation!\nIn Love that brings healing light,\nRobert O Young CPT, MSc, DSc, PhD, Naturopathic Practitioner\nwww.drrobertyoung.com ,
