Honey and Cancer: Sustainable Inverse Relationship Particularly for Developing Nations—A ReviewEvidence-based Complementary and Alternative Medicine - Tập 2012 - Trang 1-10 - 2012
Nor Hayati Othman
Honey and cancer has a sustainable inverse relationship. Carcinogenesis is a
multistep process and has multifactorial causes. Among these are low immune
status, chronic infection, chronic inflammation, chronic non healing ulcers,
obesity, and so forth. There is now a sizeable evidence that honey is a natural
immune booster, natural anti-inflammatory agent, natural antimicrobial agent,

Tualanghoney (TH) is rich in flavonoids and phenolic acids and has significant
anticancer activity against breast cancer cells comparable to the effect of
tamoxifen (TAM),in vitro. The current study evaluated the effects of TH when
used in combination with TAM on MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. We observed that TH
promoted the anticancer activity of TAM in both the estrogen
receptor-(ER-)responsive an... hiện toàn bộ
Angelicae Dahuricae Radix Inhibits Dust Mite Extract-Induced Atopic Dermatitis-Like Skin Lesions in NC/Nga MiceEvidence-based Complementary and Alternative Medicine - Tập 2012 - Trang 1-7 - 2012

We examined whether Angelicae Dahuricae Radix (AR) suppresses the development of
atopic dermatitis (AD)-like skin lesions induced byDermatophagoides farinaein
NC/Nga mice. To investigate the effect of AR, we measured the AD severity score,
measured plasma levels of IgE and histamine, and performed histological analysis
in NC/Nga mice. We also confirmed the anti-inflammatory effects of AR by

This paper is an attempt to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic
activities and the possible mechanism of action of tender leaf extracts ofShorea
robusta, traditionally used in ailments related to inflammation. The
acetic-acid-induced writhing and tail flick tests were carried out for analgesic
activity, while the anti-inflammatory activity was evaluated in carrageenan-and

Chinese medicine (CM) practice, as a knowledge‐based industry, has not embraced
knowledge management (KM) techniques widely. However, KM may facilitate the
adaptation and promotion of evidence‐based CM. A KM framework was introduced to
its activities in evidence‐based CM through the development of a CM portal. A
codification strategy was used to codify and store knowledge systematically in a

Polygonum multiflorumRadix (PMR) has long history in hair growth promotion and
hair coloring in clinical applications. However, several crucial problems in its
clinic usage and mechanisms are still unsolved or lack scientific evidences. In
this research, C57BL/6J mice were used to investigate hair growth promotion
activity and possible mechanism of PMR andPolygonum multiflorumRadix Preparata

The self‐controlled follow‐up pilot study was set up to examine the maintenance
of engagement in physical activity by a group of older adults in a thermal spa
resort, as a consequence of the inclusion of additional physical education
sessions within their usual care offers. A cohort of 42 participants (70.4 ± 4.5
years) underwent three weeks of thermal treatment with additional physical

Herbal remedies are regularly used to complement conventional therapies in the
treatment of various illnesses in Africa. This may be because they are
relatively cheap and easily accessible and are believed by many to be safe,
cause fewer side effects, and are less likely to cause dependency. On the
contrary, many herbs have been shown to alter the pharmacokinetics of
coadministered allopathic medi... hiện toàn bộ
