In oncology, microbiota balance studies the complex relationship between the body's microbial networks and cancerous development. The billions of microbes that comprise the human microbiota are essential for maintaining homeostasis and affecting a number of physiological functions. Recent research suggests that modifications to this microbial ecosy...

Secondary metabolites in ginger include 6-gingerol, 6-shogaol, 10-gingerol, gingerdiones, gingerdiols, paradols, 6-dehydrogingerols, 5-acetoxy-6- gingerol, 3,5-diacetoxy-6-gingerdiol, and 12-gingerol, all of which account for ginger's well-known pharmacological actions. Six-shogaol and six-gingerol are two of the most important active ingredients....

Since water treatment facilities provide a workable alternative for expelling microplastics from the surroundings, this review examines the overall and stage-by-stage effectiveness of different water treatment techniques in expelling microplastics and the innovations for handling water treatment waste products. Over 80 academic papers over the last...

Ginger is rich in secondary metabolites such as 6-gingerol, 6-shogaol, 10-gingerol, gingerdiones, gingerdiols, paradols, 6-dehydrogingerols, 5-acetoxy-6-gingerol, 3,5-diacetoxy-6-gingerdiol, and 12-gingerol. These compounds are largely responsible for the evidenced pharmacological properties of ginger. Among them, 6-shogaol and 6-gingerol are consi...

COVID-19, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has affected millions of people worldwide, leading to a global health crisis. Sleep is a critical aspect of our health, and disruptions to it can have negative impacts on our immune system and overall well-being. Studies have shown that COVID-19 can lead to sleep disorders, such as insomnia, hypersomnia, an...

A causal association between inflammation and cancer has long been suspected. Multiple lines of compelling evidence from clinical, epidemiologic and laboratory studies support that inflammation plays a critical role in the promotion and progression stages of carcinogenesis. Recent progress in our understanding of the molecular biology of cancer hig...

Oxidative stress is known top-lay an important role in the development and pathogenesis of several chronic diseases such as diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. Exposure to poisons and toxicants results in the generation of pro-oxidant which eventually cause dysfunction in enzymatic activities and defect in the DNA, resulting to altera...

One of the essential hereditary hazard factors for AD (Alzheimer's Disease) is the existence of APOE (Apolipoprotein E4 allele). Multivariate lipoprotein called APOE happens to be crucial for the movement of cholesterol in the brain. Along with other things, it has a crucial function in the breakdown of glucose, neuro-inflammation, and neuronal sig...

The presence of selenium (Se) in foods and the pertinent toxicological data are reviewed. In most regions of the world, the average daily intake of man is thought to be between 60 and 250 micrograms for adults and between 4 and 35 micrograms for infants. The current practice of adding selenium supplements to animal feeds may increase the selenium c...

Worldwide, monosodium glutamate is utilized as a flavor enhancer and is composed of essential amino acids for nutrition. Numerous health issues are thought to be linked to monosodium glutamate. Studies have demonstrated that monosodium glutamate has harmful side effects, notably in animals, such as the development of obesity and diabetes as well as...

The free radical theory of aging suggests that aging is caused by accumulation of damage inflicted by reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, this concept has been very useful in defining the contribution of oxidative damage to the aging process, an increasing number of studies opposes it. The idea that oxidative damage represents only one of many...

A causal association between inflammation and cancer has long been suspected. Multiple evidences from clinical, epidemiologic and laboratory studies support that inflammation plays a critical role in the promotion and progression stages of carcinogenesis. Recent progress in our understanding of the molecular biology of cancer highlights the intrace...

Silymarin, a flavonolignan from the seeds of 'milk thistle' (Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn.)), has been widely used from ancient times because of its excellent hepato-protective action. It is a mixture of mainly three flavonolignans, which are, silybin, silidianin, and silychristin, with silybin being the most active. Silymarin has been used medicin...

Nutraceuticals are products that are also used as medicine other than nutrition. A nutraceutical product may be defined as a substance, which have physiological benefits nor gives protection against chronic diseases. Nutraceuticals may also be used to improve health, delay the aging process, prevent chronic disease, increase life expectancy, or sup...

The Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) is a highly transmittable and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which emerged in Wuhan, China and spread around the world. As of 19 June 2020 data from the World Health Organization (WHO) have shown that more than 8457305 confirmed cases have been...
