The present volume focuses on the latest research data from basic science and clinical intervention studies that indicate that a balanced ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids and a high antioxidant intake from fruits and vegetables, along with olive oil, contribute to a lower rate of heart disease and increased longevity. These benefits are especially pronounced in the population of Crete, indicating that this diet is particularly healthy. Moreover, descriptions of the diets of Greece, Italy, Spain and the Maghreb are given for the first time, pointing to their differences as well as to their common dietary patterns; these are followed by chapters on the nutritional and metabolic contributions of antioxidants, wine, olive oil and fatty acids.

Book Health Benefits of Olive Leaf Extract

Download or read book Health Benefits of Olive Leaf Extract written by Anna Boss and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Olive Leaf Extract (OLE) has been used for many of years to benefit human health, but investigation of the scientific basis of these effects is relatively recent. OLE polyphenols have shown therapeutic effects on a wide range of ailments including cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer. Although recent literature has described a link between these ailments and a protective effect of OLE, the mode of action is less clear. Genes that respond to OLE were investigated to determine underlying mechanisms that correlate to health benefits. A double blind placebo (PBO) controlled trial design was performed. Gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy male volunteers (n=29) were analysed using RNA samples for Affymetrix arrays following an 8-week intervention with a 20ml daily consumption of either OLE or PBO. The difference between groups was determined using an adjusted linear model. Analysis of the human samples indicated a down-regulation of genes important in inflammatory pathways, lipid metabolism and cancer with OLE. Gene expression was verified by real-time-PCR for three genes (EGR1, COX-2 and ID3). Further investigation was carried out using in vitro cell models to determine the inflammatory pathways utilised by OLE. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing protein (NOD)2-WT, NOD2-G908R, Human Embryonic Kidney 293 (HEK)BlueTM-2 and HEKBlueTM-4 cells were analysed for inflammatory response to OLE. These models demonstrated OLE interacts with both intracellular and membrane bound receptors to downregulate inflammatory pathways. Lastly the apoptosis/ proliferation effects of OLE in cancer models were investigated. OLE had an inhibitory effect in MCF-7 (breast) and LNCaP (prostate) cancer cell lines. A 70% survival with OLE treatment was used for real-time-PCR analysis to measure differential gene expression. Gene expression suggests an anti-inflammatory effect could be inhibiting cancer cell proliferation. The results presented here support a gene expression level manipulation by OLE creating health benefits to humans through effects on inflammatory and metabolic pathways. Future studies with a larger study group, including both male and female participants, looking into direct effects of lipid metabolism and reduced inflammation are warranted.

Neuroprotective Effects of Phytochemicals in Neurological Disorders explores the advances in our understanding of the potential neuroprotective benefits that these naturally occurring chemicals contain. Neuroprotective Effects of Phytochemicals in Neurological Disorders explores the role that a number of plant-based chemical compounds play in a wide variety of neurological disorders. Chapters explore the impact of phytochemicals on neurotraumatic disorders, such as stroke and spinal cord injury, alongside neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease, as well as neuropsychiatric disorders such as depression and schizophrenia. The chapters and sections of this book provide the reader with a big picture view of this field of research. Neuroprotective Effects of Phytochemicals in Neurological Disorders aims to present readers with a comprehensive and cutting edge look at the effects of phytochemicals on the brain and neurological disorders in a manner useful to researchers, neuroscientists, clinical nutritionists, and physicians.
