This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red wines and grape juices contain phenolic compounds with antioxidant properties that are protective against oxidative stress conditions such as hypertension, insulin resistance and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). This study evaluated the effects of muscadine grapes processed as juice (MJ), wine (MW) and dealcoholized wine (DzW) on blood constituents, antioxidant capacity, and erythrocyte membrane lipids of free living T2D and control, non-diabetic subjects. Two Control groups, MJ- group and control without supplementation (CS); and three T2D groups, MJ, DzW and MW each consumed 150 ml of the grape product daily (except for CS) with meal for 28 days. Dietary information, anthropometry and blood sample analysis for erythrocyte membrane lipids, antioxidant capacity, glycated hemoglobin, insulin and electrolytes were carried out. Liver, renal and cardiac function tests were also evaluated. All tests performed at baseline were repeated 28 days post-treatment. Decreased levels of blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin post supplementation suggest better glycemic control, especially in the T2D- wine group. Low dietary chromium and biotin in all subjects indicate insulin inefficiency in stimulating glucose uptake. Reduced serum sodium and chloride levels among T2D- wine group after supplementation suggest reduced risk for hypertension. High folate and vitamin B12 levels in T2D- DzW indicate a favorable environment for homocysteine clearance and increased insulin sensitivity. Lowered triglyceride, total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol in T2D taking DzW and MW suggest improved lipid metabolism. Decreased alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) in T2D- wine group indicate better insulin sensitivity and reduced risk of impaired liver function. In conclusion, T2D- wine and DzW groups exhibited improved serum lipids, ALT, AST and glutathione compared to T2D- juice group. Also, improved serum electrolyte and cardiac function in T2D- wine group.

Download or read book Bioactives in Fruit written by Margot Skinner and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-06-14 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries we have known that fruit is important for health, but we are only just beginning to fully understand why. Bioactives in Fruit: Health Benefits and Functional Foods aims to summarise some of our current knowledge on the bioactive compounds that are associated with the health benefits of specific fruits with a strong emphasis on the validation of health benefits by human intervention trials. Reflecting the current interest in food and health, the book includes strategies to retain and enhance the bioactives in fruit through breeding, growing conditions, fruit storage, processing into ingredients and production of functional foods. To accomplish this task authors with expertise in biology, chemistry, pharmacology, food science, nutrition, medicine, and horticulture have contributed. They come from universities, government and industry funded research institutes and biotechnology and food companies in Europe, the United States, Asia and New Zealand to give the book a broad perspective. This book, describing fruit bioactives, their health benefits when consumed as a food and related topics regarding their development into fresh or processed functional foods, will be of use to postgraduate students, researchers, functional food product developers, food regulators and anyone who has curiosity about why fruit is good for you. The information contained within will provide plant breeders with new targets for the development of value-added horticultural products, and will also provide nutritionists and dieticians with a useful resource for developing strategies to assist in preventing or slowing disease onset or severity. Bioactives in Fruit: Health Benefits and Functional Foods is a major resource which will be required reading for anyone working in the fields of health and functional foods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of medical drug therapy in medieval times can be seen as an interplay between tradition and innovation. This book follows the changes in the therapy from the Arabic medicine of Ibn S n (Avicenna) to Latin medical scholasticism, aiming to trace both the continuity and the development in the theory and practice of medieval drug therapy. In this delicate balance between change and continuity a crucial role was played by the scientific community through critical rejection or acceptance of new ideas. The drug choices were in most cases rational also from the point of view of contemporary medical theory. The method used in the book for studying these choices could promote the development of a novel methodology for historical ethnopharmacology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, great attention has been paid to polyphenols due to their positive effects on health. One of the most widely-studied phenolic compounds is resveratrol. This molecule, which is naturally present in some foods, shows beneficial effects on various physiological and biochemical processes, thus representing a potential tool for the prevention or the treatment of diseases highly prevalent in our society. Several of these beneficial effects have been observed in human beings, but others only in pre-clinical studies so far, and therefore, it is mandatory to continue with the scientific research in this field. Indeed, new knowledge concerning these issues could enable the development of novel functional foods or nutraceuticals, incorporating resveratrol, suitable for preventing or treating diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, obesity, dislipemia, insulin resistance and diabetes, liver diseases, etc.
