Green Tea: Better Health in Old Age
Since the first, green tea has been known to provide many health benefits. This is because green tea contains antioxidants. A recent study in Japan said the older adults who drink green tea regularly may make them more nimble and independent.
Green tea contains specific antioxidants chemicals - especially a compound known as EGCG - that may help prevent cell damage in the body. Even some experts have also studied the effects of green tea in fighting cholesterol to the risk of certain cancers with mixed results.
For this new study, researchers from Japan to observe the extent of the effects of green tea consumption reduces the risk of weakness and physical disability in older adults. Research involving almost 14,000 adults age 65 and older. Results showed that participants who drank more green tea, are less likely to experience or suffer from "functional disability" during the next three years.
Functional disability in this case refers to the problems associated with a person's ability to perform daily activities, such as doing household chores to basic needs such as clothes and toiletries.
Data show that nearly 13 percent of adults who drank less than a glass of green tea a day, at risk of functional problems. While those who drank at least five cups a day, have a lower risk, which amounted to 7 percent.
Researchers explained that green tea lovers generally have a healthy diet - the more the consumption of fish, vegetables and fruit - and have a better education, lower smoking habits. In addition, they also tend to be more socially active and a lot of support from friends and family.
Tomata Yasutake, lead investigator of the Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine says that although the factor-fakor above have been considered, but green tea itself has the ability to reduce the risk of disability is lower. By Yasutake, people who drank at least five cups a day, one-third less likely to develop disabilities than those who drank less than one cup a day. And those who drank an average of three or four cups a day had 25 percent lower risk.
Other studies also mention that the green tea extract can increase leg muscle strength in elderly women. In general, green tea is considered safe when consumed in moderate amounts. But remember, green tea also contains caffeine, which some people may need to be avoided. In addition, green tea also contains small amounts of vitamin K, which means it can interfere with the work of a drug such as warfarin (to prevent blood clotting). [kompas]

A Dutch study of a number of people aged 55 years and over, proving that high potassium intake may reduce mortality rates.
As quoted by the Daily Mail, regular consumption of pomegranate juice also helped erode the fat around the abdomen. Researchers from the University of Edinburgh believe that pomegranate juice can reduce levels of fatty acids in the blood, known as the nonesterified or NEFA.
Emad Aldujaili and Catherine Tsang, principal researcher at Edinburgh University's School of Health Sciences, said, "Pomegranate juice is beneficial in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, because our results significantly and consistently able to lower blood pressure." [VIVAnews]

3 Ways to Overcome Alternative Stomach Bloating
There are many causes of abdominal bloating. Could be due to trivial conditions, such as colds, but also because of serious illness, such as celiac disease or disorder of the digestive system.
"In addition, the condition of lactose intolerance or poor diet can also cause you to experience stress. When you're stressed, blood flow will be diverted from the digestive organs to the heart and muscles, so that the process of digestion is slower. Production of saliva is reduced, digestive enzymes become less, and can not digest food properly, "says Roberta Lee, MD, an expert in the field of integrative healing of Beth Israel's Continuum Center for Health and Healing, New York, and author of The SuperStress Solution.
To overcome this, there are some things you can do. Here are three suggestions from the experts:
1. Relieve stress
Lee encourages you to relaxation and exercise more often, because they can relieve the stress that can interfere with digestion. "Add food or drinks that contain good bacteria into your daily diet, such as yogurt and kefir. In addition, avoid eating while standing or while calling and playing computer," advises Lee.
2. Acupuncture treatment
"Flatulence is caused by the flow of qi much disturbed. Meanwhile, acupuncture can help to stimulate the qi to flow smoothly. In addition, exercise can also help to keep the qi is blocked," said Anna Perry, L.Ac, acupuncture practitioners of Crocus Hill Medicina Oriental, St. Paul, Minnesota. Frequently walk in the open, so that qi can flow naturally as you relax your mind and body.
3. Improve diet
"Food is not digested properly can make the stomach to be bloated. So, get used to chew your food at least 20 times before swallowing," anjur Karen Raden, MS, RD, a nutritionist from Chicago. In addition, you should consult with a nutritionist to find out what kind of food that can make the stomach to be bloated. "To prevent the digestion does not have to work too hard, you can eat soup or boiled foods. Avoid carbonated drinks as well. It is better to drink ginger tea or chamomile, which is proven to help relieve gas elements in the digestive tract," added the Prince again.[Natural Health, kompas]

Green tea Inhibition Tuberculosis
Two million people worldwide die each year from tuberculosis. World Health Organization (WHO) reported in Indonesia in 2006 found 14.4 million cases of tuberculosis with 38 deaths per 100,000 population. As many as 98 percent of deaths occur in the productive age population.
Although it has been available antituberculosis drugs (TB), TB remains a major global health problem. The causes, characteristics of the bacteria that causes TB, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is able to evade the human immune system so it is sometimes less effective therapy.
Inconsistent treatment of drug resistance due to mutations causing mycobacteria chromosome so as to avoid the effects of drug action, became an obstacle.
Departing from the condition of these concerns, three semesters VII student of Faculty of Medicine, University of March Solo, namely Afandi Dwi Harmoko, Yasjudan Rastrama, and Trisna Adhy Wijaya, analyzed several studies and concluded that green tea (Camellia sinensis) may be used as adjuvant therapy (supporting) for the existing TB therapies. This is because green tea contains polyphenol compounds that can inhibit the proliferation of mycobacteria, namely epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Each gram contains 30-50 grams of green tea EGCG.
Actually black tea also contains polyphenols EGCG, but not as much as green tea. Black tea production process makes the content of EGCG reduced.
"It's very interesting because in our country there are lots of green tea, but less than optimal utilization of health," Hassanain said Thursday (2/2).
One third of the references used are research students Anand PK, Kaul D, and M Sharma in India in 2006 about the polyphenols in green tea can inhibit proliferation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This research suggests that mycobacteria die after 12 hours of being exposed to EGCG from green tea.
Enhance the immune
According to Hassanain, EGCG has a mechanism as an immunomodulator, which boosts the immune system that can kill mycobacteria as well as lower the immune system that can damage normal cells. The mechanism is not found in anti-TB drugs in use today.
Other benefits of EGCG is an antioxidant that is 10 times more powerful than antioxidant vitamins C and 100 times stronger than vitamin E.
In addition, EGCG can also inhibit the growth of Taco (tryptophan aspartate-containing coat protein) in macrophages. Macrophages are the immune cells that destroy defective cells as well as turn off harmful substances, such as bacteria or viruses. On the other hand, macrophages can not destroy mycobacteria because it is protected by Taco, a protein produced macrophages.
"Taco Mikobakterium use to protect itself so it can not be destroyed by macrophages. EGCG in green tea can inhibit the growth of Taco, "Hassanain said.
For separating EGCG from green tea, according to Yasjudan, can be done with green tea extract with meserasi extraction method, which is soaked in a solvent of chloroform, methanol 95 percent, and ethyl acetate, then take the juice. This method can be extracted without damaging the stability of EGCG.
"We hope there is more research on this, especially the effective dose of EGCG for supportive therapy and its side effects," Hassanain said.
The results of the analysis of the three students who poured in a scientific paper received second prize in the Scientific Writing Contest Student National Medical Scientific Airlangga Writing Competition with the theme "Tropical Infectious Diseases" held in October 2011. [kompas]

4 Foods that are Bad for Digestion
In theory, what is actually put in the mouth can be digested by our digestive organs. But changes in the process of food preparation (frying), coupled with a passive lifestyle, make the stomach often "fussy" in response to food intake. Limiting the intake of certain types is a wise way to avoid stomach upsets. Four of these foods for example.
1. Foods high in fat and fried foods
Good foods high in fat or fried may trigger a negative response to the abdomen, such as heartburn (heartburn) or acid reflux. Foods high in fat can also cause the color to be pale stools called steatorrhea, the excess fat in feces. People suffering from irritable bowel syndrome are also advised to avoid foods high in fat, including cream and butter.
2. spicy foods
People who already suffer from heartburn or irritable bowel syndrome should reduce the food is too spicy.
3. dairy products
Dairy products are an easily digestible source of calcium the body, but for those who suffer from lactose intolerance can be a pain after enjoying dairy products. Symptoms include abdominal bloating, frequent bowel movements, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea.
4. alcohol
Alcohol may make the body relax, but unfortunately have also picked up the esophagus to relax. The result is heartburn or heartburn. Hearburn occurs when stomach acid churning up into the esophagus or throat.
Alcohol drinking habits will also make the stomach lining is inflamed which can interfere with absorption of nutrients from food. Too much alcohol will also cause diarrhea and stomach cramps. [FOXNews, kompas]

This 8 Tension Reducer Food Recommendations of Experts
Adopt a healthy diet and balanced is one way to prevent and reduce high blood pressure and hypertension. Experts believe that the consumption of foods derived from vegetable (plant) and a diet high in fruits is closely associated with low blood pressure.
Given the importance of the influence of diet on the development of hypertension, the experts who are members of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommends 8 (eight) foods that are believed to help lower blood pressure:
1. Celery
A physician and medical director of the Institute of Hipertension Saint Thomas Hospital in Nashville, Mark Houston, recommends celery can be a natural remedy for lowering blood pressure. These recommendations are not new. Traditional Chinese medical experts have even been prescribing celery or celery root as a cure for patients with hypertension for more than a century.
How it works: Celery contains phytochemicals known as phthalides, which can relax the muscle tissue in the artery wall, thereby increasing blood flow and in turn lowers blood pressure.
How much: Research shows that eating four stalks of celery every day may help in lowering blood pressure. To increase protein intake, add a tablespoon of fresh peanut butter or almond butter - both are known to have a high content of monounsaturated fats (good for the heart).
2. Marine fish
Content of marine fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids, known for its benefits in cardiovascular health. In particular, omega-3 to treat hypertension and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. Salmon, tuna, mackerel, cod, herring, and sardines are one of the best sources of omega 3.
How it works: omega-3 fatty acids are essential fatty acids. The human body can not produce omega 3, so we need to get from the food we eat. Omega-3 acts as a natural blood thinner, making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body.
How much: According to the joint guidelines of the FDA and EPA, two to six-ounce servings of fish per week is a safe amount for most people, including pregnant women and nursing mothers. If you bruise easily, have a bleeding disorder or take blood-thinning medication, you should consult your doctor first.
3. Broccoli
Many nutrition experts hailed as a super food because broccoli contains a powerful antioxidant and serves as an anti-inflammatory. Even the vegetables are also quite effective in lowering blood pressure.
How it works: Broccoli is a food with a complete nutrient content because it contains fiber, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and vitamin C, all the nutrients that help lower blood pressure. A cup of steamed broccoli provides more than 200 percent of vitamin C you need every day.
How much: For optimal benefit you can eat on a regular basis. For variety, you can eat them raw with salsa or hummus, or steamed with olive oil and lemon.
4. Dandelion
For more than a century, dandelion has been used as a drug used to treat various disease conditions and widely used in several countries in Asia and Europe. All parts of this plant is edible, from leaves to roots. In addition to lower blood pressure, this plant is also good for the heart, eyes and skin.
How it works: Dandelion is a natural diuretic, which helps reduce blood pressure by removing sodium without loss of potassium. Excess sodium in the body can increase blood pressure by constricting blood vessels, while potassium helps regulate it. Dandelion is also loaded with magnesium, which dissolves blood clots and stimulates the production of nitric oxide, helping you to relax and dilate blood vessels so blood flows better.
How much: You can eat fresh dandelion leaves in salads, sauteing root, or dried in the form of drinking dandelion tea. Enter a dandelion in your diet as often as you can.
5. Oat grain
Many research showed that consumption of wheat in hypertensive patients may be an alternative antihypertensive drugs, or reduce it by half. Even patients who regularly consumed a variety of grain products tend to experience a significant decrease in blood pressure.
How it works: oat fiber and magnesium both have beneficial effects on blood pressure. Regular consumption of oats may destroy existing plaque buildup in blood vessels.
How much: Consumption of at least one serving (about three-fourths cup) of whole grain oats per day, or at least six servings per week.
6. Black beans
Black bean can work like a magic potion to regulate blood sugar and lowers blood cholesterol levels, both of which contribute to maintaining blood pressure remained within normal conditions.
How it works: black beans is a solid food source of fiber and magnesium, which is important to keep the pressure remains healthier. In addition, folic acid content in it also helps in lowering blood pressure (particularly systolic blood pressure) by relaxing blood vessels and improve blood flow.
How much: One cup of cooked black beans provide 256 micrograms of folate.
7. Berries
Berries are one of the most nutritious foods on the planet because of the high content of fiber and antioxidants. Blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries are the types of berries that have a great ability to help lower blood pressure, thanks to fiber content, vitamin C, potassium, and other plant compounds.
How it works: A cup of strawberries offers 136 percent of the daily value for vitamin C. And blueberries contain a compound called pterostilbene that helps prevent the buildup of plaque in arteries.
How much: Eat at least one serving (one cup) of fruit per day, fresh or frozen.
8. Low-fat milk
In a Dutch study with adult respondents 55 years and older, researchers found that low-fat dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt can help prevent hypertension.
How it works: The amount of fat in a simple low-fat milk is important because it increases the bioavailability of calcium, making it easier for the body to absorb.
How much: In a 2006 study at Harvard Medical School, researchers found that people who eat more than three servings per day of low fat milk showed a decrease in systolic blood pressure by 2.6 points. The fall is better than those who ate less than half a serving per day. So, it would not hurt if you include skim milk, cheese, and yogurt into the daily diet. [caring, kompas]
