NS (black cumin) shows promise in reducing inflammation and oxidative stress associated with diabetic neuropathy. Research suggests potential benefits for treating complications of diabetes with fewer side effects.
Jujube fruit extracts lower oxidative stress markers in rodents. May be useful as antioxidant supplements for diseases with oxidative stress. More research needed due to low study quality.
Researchers studied the impact of functional constipation on quality of life and mental health. The gut-brain axis plays a role in functional gastrointestinal disorders. Traditional treatments have limitations, leading to interest in herbal supplements like ashwagandha and okra for symptom management.
"Moringa, a plant rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds, has been traditionally used to treat various illnesses. Recent studies highlight its potential as a natural alternative to conventional medications. Researchers should explore its benefits in ethnomedicine and other domains."
Extensive structure-activity-relationship studies on natural saponins reveal that replacing ester side chains with amide side chains could generate potent immunostimulants. This research led to the discovery of VSA-1 and VSA-2, which could offer new options for immunostimulatory adjuvants.
Researchers studied the role of oxidative stress and acute phase response in coccidiosis in various animals. Dietary additives like Curcuma longa can reduce oxidative damage and improve antioxidant levels. More research is needed for other animal species.
Piperine from black pepper shows potential in overcoming drug resistance in cancer cells by targeting key pathways and enhancing drug bioavailability. It can improve the effectiveness of chemotherapy when used with other agents.
Polygonatum sibiricum polysaccharide (PSP) improves gut health, reduces inflammation, and may alleviate cognitive impairment by modulating gut-brain axis communication. Important for understanding and treating neurological diseases.
