Beautiful & Healthy Skin with Mediterranean Diet
Plus The Preventive Health Benefits Of Natural Weight-Control, Improving Cardiovascular Function And Helping To Reduce The Risk Of Cancer
In addition to helping shed pounds and reduce body fat, a healthy Mediterranean diet can protect mental functioning, improve memory, keep skin young and also help decrease the risk of cancer.
Nearly everyone suffers from an occasional bout of high blood pressure, typically triggered by factors like stress or strenuous physical activity. These temporary bouts can create tiny holes in the lining of otherwise healthy arteries, providing a place for plaque to collect. Over time, the plaque builds and builds, hardening and clogging the arteries and putting you at increased risk for heart disease.
Clogged arteries also lead to poor circulation, which can have a negative effect on your skin. In order to prevent this from occurring, it's essential to consume foods that won't clog your arteries or raise your blood pressure. That's why it's important to eliminate dangerous trans fats and high-cholesterol foods.
Residents of areas such as Greece and southern Italy who follow a healthy, traditional Mediterranean diet typically enjoy both a higher life-expectancy and a lower incidence of chronic diseases than people living in other parts of the world.
In addition, many of these people have healthy, clear skin and shiny hair because about 40% of the calories in their diet come from unsaturated fats. These healthy fats are usually found in avocados, olive oil, flaxseeds, nuts (especially almonds), and fatty fish including salmon and mackerel. Following a healthy Mediterranean diet also includes eating plenty of whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables, tomato sauce and legumes.
Based on the long-term evidence of people following a Mediterranean diet, improved cardiovascular health as well as young-looking, clear, smooth skin, improved memory and a strong, energized body can be achieved by increasing daily intake of specific essential fatty acids.
Derived from a healthy variety of natural nutritive sources including FISH OIL (rich in Omega 3 fatty acids: DHA and EPA), FLAXSEED (rich in Omega 6 fatty acids: alpha linolenic Acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, palmitic acid and stearic acid) and OLIVE OIL (rich in oleic acid, phenolic antioxidants and squalene) assure optimum daily dietary intake of these precious nutritional factors with proper supplementation.
New Study Demonstrates How A Natural Compound From Olives Provides Effective Defense Against Colon Cancer
Researchers from the University of Granada and the University of Barcelona have shown that treatment with maslinic acid, a triterpenoid compound isolated from olives, results in a significant inhibition of cell proliferation and causes apoptotic death in colon-cancer cells.
Maslinic acid is a natural compound and it is able to induce apoptosis or programmed death in human HT29 colon-cancer cells via the intrinsic mitochondrial pathwayNew research suggest this could be a useful new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of colon carcinoma.
This study is the first to investigate the precise molecular mechanisms of the anti-tumoral and pro-apoptotic effects of maslinic acid against colon-cancer. Chemopreventive agents of a natural origin, often a part of the Mediterranean-type healthy daily diet, may provide a low cost, effective way of controlling such diseases as cancer of the colon.
A wide range of studies in recent years has shown that triterpenoids hinder carcinogenesis by intervening in pathways such as carcinogen activation, DNA repair, cell cycle arrest, cell differentiation and the induction of apoptosis in cancer cells.
Triterpenoids are compounds present in a wide range of plants used in traditional medicine and known to have antitumoral properties. Concentrations of maslinic acid are found in plants with medicinal properties, but its concentration in olives may be as high as 80%.
The results of this important new study could contribute to the development of maslinic acid for use as cancer chemotherapeutic or chemopreventive agents.
Source Of Major Health Benefits In Olive Oil Revealed...
Scientists have identified the constituent of olive oil that gives greatest protection from heart attack and stroke. In a study of the major antioxidants in olive oil, Portuguese researchers showed that DHPEA-EDA, protects red blood cells from damage more than any other part of olive oil.
These recent findings provide the scientific basis for the clear health benefits that have been seen in people who regularly include olive oil in their diet.
Heart disease is caused partly by reactive oxygen, including free radicals, acting on LDL or "bad" cholesterol and resulting in hardening of the arteries. Red blood cells are especially susceptible to oxidative damage because they function as the body's transporters of oxygen.
In the study, published in "Molecular Nutrition & Food Research" researchers compared the effects of key polyphenolic compounds on the red blood cells subjected to oxidative stress by a known free radical generating chemical.
DHPEA-EDA was the most effective and protected red blood cells even at low concentrations. The researchers say the study provides the first evidence that this compound is the major source of the health benefit associated with virgin olive oils, which contain increased levels of DHPEA-EDA compared to other oils. In virgin olive oils, DHPEA-EDA may make up as much as half the total antioxidant component of the oil.
The findings could lead to the production of "functional" olive oils specifically designed to reduce the risk of heart disease. Now that the importance of these compounds have been specifically identified , including olive oil supplements (from Virgin Olive Oil Concentrates) in the daily diet can help assure optimum concentrations of the polyphenolic - rich nutritional factors.
