Epub 2016 Oct 31. PMID: 27810402 Abstract Title:  Impact of intermittent fasting on health and disease processes. Abstract:  Humans in modern societies typically consume food at least three times daily, while laboratory animals are fed ad libitum. Overconsumption of food with such eating patterns often leads to metabolic morbidities (insulin resistance, excessive accumulation of visceral fat, etc.), particularly when associated with a sedentary lifestyle. Because animals, including humans, evolved in environments where food was relatively scarce, they developed numerous adaptations that enabled them to function at a high level, both physically and cognitively, when in a food-deprived/fasted state. Intermittent fasting (IF) encompasses eating patterns in which individuals go extended time periods (e.g., 16-48h) with little or no energy intake, with intervening periods of normal food intake, on a recurring basis. We use the term periodic fasting (PF) to refer to IF with periods of fasting or fasting mimicking diets lasting from 2 to as many as 21 or more days. In laboratory rats and mice IF and PF have profound beneficial effects on many different indices of health and, importantly, can counteract disease processes and improve functional outcome in experimental models of a wide range of age-related disorders including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancers and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer&#039;s disease Parkinson&#039;s disease and stroke. Studies of IF (e.g., 60% energy restriction on 2days per week or every other day), PF (e.g., a 5day diet providing 750-1100kcal) and time-restricted feeding (TRF; limiting the daily period of food intake to 8h or less) in normal and overweight human subjects have demonstrated efficacy for weight loss and improvements in multiple health indicators including insulin resistance and reductions in risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The cellular and molecular mechanisms by which IF improves health and counteracts disease processes involve activation of adaptive cellular stress response signaling pathways that enhance mitochondrial health, DNA repair and autophagy. PF also promotes stem cell-based regeneration as well as long-lasting metabolic effects. Randomized controlled clinical trials of IF versus PF and isoenergetic continuous energy restriction in human subjects will be required to establish the efficacy of IF in improving general health, and preventing and managing major diseases of aging. https://greenmedinfo.com/article/review-impact-intermittent-fasting-health-and-disease-processes#comments Alzheimer's Disease Cancers: All Cardiovascular Diseases Diabetes Mellitus: Type 2 Parkinson's Disease Stroke Fasting/Caloric Restriction Alzheimer's disease Cancers: All Cardiovascular Diseases Diabetes mellitus: Type 2 Intermittent Fasting Parkinson's disease stroke Review Wed, 30 Nov 2016 20:30:18 +0000 greenmedinfo 139657 at https://greenmedinfo.com Nature's Solutions: 20 Natural Agents Backed by Science to Prevent and Aid Stroke Recovery https://greenmedinfo.com/content/natures-solutions-20-natural-agents-backed-science-prevent-and-aid-stroke-reco <div class="copyright">This article is copyrighted by GreenMedInfo LLC, 2024<br/><strong><a href="/greenmedinfocom-re-post-guidelines">Visit our Re-post guidelines</a></strong></div><p><img alt="" src="//cdn.greenmedinfo.com/sites/default/files/ckeditor/blank.justin/images/Nautres_Solutions-20_Natural_Agents_Backed_by_Science_to_Prevent_and_Aid_Stroke_Recovery-GreenMedInfo.jpg" /></p> <p><span style="font-size:18px;"><em><strong>Research shows 20 natural substances like curcumin and therapies like music improve stroke outcomes by reducing risk factors, protecting brain cells, and aiding regeneration, without the concerning side effects of pharmaceuticals</strong></em></span></p> <p><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Stroke is a leading cause of disability and death worldwide, with over 17 million new cases annually.<sup>[1]</sup> Unfortunately, current medical interventions like clot-busting pharmaceuticals have a very narrow treatment window and provide only modest benefits.<sup>[2]</sup> Rehabilitation efforts also have limited effectiveness at alleviating post-stroke cognitive, motor, and speech disorders over the longer term.<sup>[3]</sup></span></p><p><a href="https://greenmedinfo.com/content/natures-solutions-20-natural-agents-backed-science-prevent-and-aid-stroke-reco" target="_blank">read more</a></p> https://greenmedinfo.com/content/natures-solutions-20-natural-agents-backed-science-prevent-and-aid-stroke-reco#comments Acupuncture Astaxanthin Cannabinoids Cerebral Stroke Curcumin Ginkgo biloba Green Tea L-Carnitine Lion's Mane (Hericium Erinaceus) Magnesium Melatonin Music Omega-3 Fatty Acids Resveratrol Rosemary Vinpocetine Vitamin D healing foods natural health stroke Fri, 23 Feb 2024 11:00:00 +0000 GMI Research Group 288803 at https://greenmedinfo.com Stroke (Aphasia) Recovery Technique Brings Tears of Joy https://greenmedinfo.com/blog/stroke-aphasia-recovery-technique-brings-tears-joy <div class="copyright">This article is copyrighted by GreenMedInfo LLC, 2016<br/><strong><a href="/greenmedinfocom-re-post-guidelines">Visit our Re-post guidelines</a></strong></div><div title="Page 1"> <div> <p class="rtecenter"><img alt="Aphasia, The Relevance of the Minor 3rd" src="//cdn.greenmedinfo.com/sites/default/files/ckeditor/lrossi/images/aphasia_music_greenmedinfo.png" style="width: 600px; height: 400px;" /></p> <p><em><span style="font-size:16px;"><strong><span style="color: rgb(20, 24, 35); font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 19.32px;">There are millions who suffer from stroke related aphasia, but no effective drug-based treatments exist.

Epub 2017 Jul 27. PMID: 28749412 Abstract Title:  Multi-Targeting Andrographolide, a Novel NF-κB Inhibitor, as a Potential Therapeutic Agent for Stroke. Abstract:  A key focus in the field of drug discovery has been motivated by the neuroprotection of natural compounds. Cerebral ischemia is a multifaceted pathological process with a series of mechanisms, and a perspective for the development of neuroprotectants from traditional herbal medicine or natural products is a promising treatment for this disease. Natural compounds with the effects of anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation, anti-apoptosis, and neurofunctional regulation exhibit therapeutic effects on experimental ischemic brain injury. Conferring to the pharmacological mechanisms underlying neuroprotection, a study found that androgapholide, a diterpene lactone compound, exhibits varying degrees of neuroprotective activities in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models of stroke. The neuroprotective mechanisms of andrographolide are suggested as: (I) increasing nuclear factor E2-related factor 2-heme oxygenase (Nrf2-HO-1) expression through p38-mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) regulation, (II) inducing cerebral endothelial cells (CEC) apoptosis and caspase-3 activation, (III) down regulating Bax, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and (IV) inhibiting hydroxyl radical (OH(-)) formation, and activating transcription factor NF-κB signaling pathways. Recently, several researchers have also been trying to unveil the principal mechanisms involved in the neuroprotective effects of andrographolide. Therefore, this review aims to summarize an overview on the neuroprotective effects of andrographolide and exemplifies the essential mechanisms involved. This paper can provide information that andrographolide drug discovery may be a promising strategy for the development of a novel class of neuroprotective drug. https://greenmedinfo.com/article/review-aims-summarize-overview-neuroprotective-effects-andrographolide-and-exe#comments Andrographolide Stroke Anti-Inflammatory Agents Antioxidants Heme oxygenase-1 up-regulation Neuroprotective Agents NF-kappaB Inhibitor Nrf2 activation Andrographolide Anti-Inflammatory Agents Antioxidants stroke Animal Study In Vitro Study Tue, 08 Aug 2017 23:37:36 +0000 greenmedinfo 151372 at https://greenmedinfo.com
