Many cholesterol-lowering compounds are naturally present in the human food supply. Each of these compounds can be isolated, purified, and subsequently used as additives in food products and dietary supplements designed specifically for reducing plasma LDL cholesterol concentration. Thisrnchapter focuses ...
If you've got a bad case of tummy bloat (whether it's gas or water retention), try these 19 delicious foods that help with bloating, like avocado and banana.
or lipoteichoic acid might be released into the medium and interact with TLR-2, as LGG-CM also exhibited radioprotective properties. This finding marked the first instance where TLR-2 was implicated in mediating a probiotic-based biological impact. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory effects of VSL#...
Radiation therapy, sometimes referred to simply as “radiotherapy,” is a treatment method that uses beams of high-energy radiation to destroy tumor cells [22]. Radiation therapy is available in several forms, the most common of which is X-rays, although proton beam therapy is another option [...
The carrot (main) fermentation of the şalgam beverage is naturally completed between 3 and 10 days at temperatures ranging from 10 to 35°C [4]. In this study, the dough and carrot fermentations were completed in 4 and 8 days during the production of şalgam with different chloride sa...
Discussion The presented technology reduced cecal SE carriage in one of the two trials, taking advantage of the remarkable character of MccJ25, a naturally occurring AMP. AMPs are ancient host defense effector peptides, produced by organisms across all biological domains as part of the innate ...
Introduction β-glucan, a viscous soluble dietary fibre found naturally in oats and barley, has several potentially beneficial physiological effects including reducing postprandial glycaemic responses (PPGR) [1,2] and serum cholesterol [3,4,5]. In 2010, the ability of β-glucan to reduce PPGR ...
We recently reported that oral delivery of tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA), a naturally occurring bile salt proven to reduce ER stress both in vitro and in vivo, dramatically decreases the clinical, histological and biochemical signs of inflammation in four different IBD mouse models through reducing...
In higher organisms, the chelated metal is usually iron (Fe), and the porphyrin is protoporphyrin IX, thus forming the naturally occurring MP, heme (Fe-Protoporphyrin IX, FePPIX). In physiological systems, heme is a key constituent of specific proteins, which either bind oxygen, as in ...
