Benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) is a condition, characterized by an increase in the number of cells of the prostate gland, causing partial, or sometimes virtually complete obstruction of the urinary tract.
According to statistic, BPH commonly starts at age of 30 and symptoms usually cannot be realized until the age of 50.
More than half of men between the age of 60-70 are experiencing symptoms of BPH and only 10% are required treatment.
The suggestion of BPH is associated with nutritional status and eating habits,.
According to the study, 30 male patients with clinically confirmed and treated disease of the prostatic gland, including 15 men (aged 51-75 years) with BPH and 15 men (aged 51-73 years) with PC, improper nutritional status lead to incorrect nutritional habits which fail to improve health status may be the cause of the development of some diet-dependent diseases, such as BPH and prostate cancer(a).
Most symptoms of an enlarged prostate are related to bladder function in urinary excretion, if you experience some of the symptoms of a weak stream of urine, difficulty starting urination, dribbling of urine, especially after urinating,..... and a sense of not fully emptying the bladder, you may develop enlarge prostate.
In a severe case, patients may also develop symptoms of nighttime frequent urination and a strong and sudden desire to urinate,.... and blood in the urine.
As the size of the prostate increase, the sex organ may press on the urethra that not only causes urinary problems but also can cause urinary pain (dysuria or pain with urination).
Most common causes of an enlarged prostate are prostate cancer and prostate infection (prostatitis). However, in compared to a diet of men in the Far East, the risk of the enlarged prostate of men who follow the Western diet is substantially higher. These results suggested that aging, unhealthy diet and lifestyle are associated with an increased risk of enlarged prostate.
Some researchers suggested that a proper diet with vegetable, fruit containing zinc may reduce the risk of the disease from starting(b)(c).
Epidemiological studies indicated that intake of vegetables and fruits accompanied with a healthy lifestyle may be associated with prevented risk and treatment of enlarged prostate(d)(e)(f).
The efficacy may be due to the enhancement of antioxidants affect on overproduction of prostate cells(g)(h).
Types of vegetables that curd Enlarged Prostate (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia(BPH))
1. Tomato
Tomato is a red, edible fruit, genus Solanum, belongings to family Solanaceae, native to South America. Because of its health benefits, the tomato is grown worldwide for commercial purposes and often in the greenhouse.
According to the study by Institute of Biological Chemistry and Nutrition, lycopene found in tomato inhibited the progression and reduced symptoms of BPH.(1)
But, intake of lycopene in the study at Universität Bonn, showed no protection from the development of PCA(5), but consumption of tomato products, lycopene ingestion might also be effective in PCA therapy(2).
Profluss®), the composition of Serenoa repens, selenium and lycopene, displayed significant anti-inflammatory activities in reduced risk of BPH by reducing extension and grading of fluorosis(3) and relieved the BHP symptoms(4).
2. Onion
The onion is a plant in the genus Allium, belongings to the family Alliaceae, a close relation of garlic.
The veggie is often called the "king of vegetables" because of its pungent taste and found in a large number of recipes and preparations of the root also spanning almost the totality of the world's cultures.
Depending on the variety, an onion can be sharp, spicy, tangy, pungent, mild or sweet.
Rich sources of flavonoids in onion may be effective in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)(6).
According to the Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri, intake of onion showed an inverse association to BPH(7).
3. Whole Grain
Wholegrain is cereal grains containing cereal germ, endosperm, and bran.
The study by Beijing Medical University, conducted in 1993-1995 in Beijing of BPH in 413 rural and 419 urban male over 40 years of age, showed an increased BPH incidence with daily intake of total calories, fat and animal protein, and the decreased daily intake of vegetables and whole grain, the sources of phytoestrogens(8).
The study of the University of Illinois in Chicago indicated an inverse association with dietary intake of plant foods, including whole grain cereals(9).
Other researchers suggested that BPH is associated with elevations in plasma estradiol/testosterone ratio, insulin, and insulin-like growth factor-I and daily aerobic exercise can reduce all of these plasma factors, particularly when combined with a low-fat, high-fiber diet consisting of whole grains, fruits, and vegetables(10).
4. Organic soybean
Soybean is genus Glycine, in the family Fabaceae, native to Southeast Asia
One of the legumes that contains twice as much protein per acre as any other major vegetable or grain crop.
Now, it is grown worldwide with a suitable climate for commercial profit and healthy food for people in Asian.
In a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), Application of Anthocyanin, a major chemical constituent in the pigment and potent antioxidant of black soybean, inhibit the volume and suppress the proliferation of the prostate(11) and
The study Central South University, also indicated that soybean isoflavone inhibits prostate hyperplasia through increased expressions of nitric oxide and nitric oxide synthase in rats(12).
Moreover, the soybean Isoflavone also reduced the risk of prostate hyperplasia through increased acid phosphatase and PAP in a dose-dependent manner in rats, according to the Central South University, in Shanghai(13).
5. Cruciferous vegetables
Cruciferous vegetables are the group of vegetables belonging to the family Brassicaceae, including cauliflower, cabbage, cress, bok choy, broccoli etc.
Sulforaphane (SFN) an isothiocyanate derived from cruciferous vegetables in the study of its effect in normal (PrEC), benign hyperplasia (BPH1) and cancerous (LnCap and PC3) prostate epithelial cells induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in BPH1, through its activities in effects on cell proliferation, HDAC activity and downstream targets in normal and cancer cells(14).
Ethyl isothiocyanate (PEITC), found in cruciferous vegetables, in the testing on the androgen-influenced growth of the prostate such as benign hyperplasia, regulated the hormone-dependent growth of the prostate, through negated the testosterone-mediated enhancement of the androgen receptor (AR), via down-regulating transcription factor Sp1 expression and Sp1 binding complex formation(15).
6. Squash
Squash is the genus Cucurbita, belongings to family Cucurbitaceae and native to Mexico and Central America.
In North America, squash is divided into summer squash or winter squash, depending on the maturity of squash when harvested, an immature fruit called summer squash and mature fruit called winter squash.
ProstateEZE Max, a herbal formula containing Cucurbita pepo, Epilobium parviflorum, lycopene, Pygeum africanum and Serenoa repens in the study of benign prostate hypertrophy (BPH) demonstrated a positive effect in improvement of physical symptoms of BPH after 3 months of intake(16).
However, the Minneapolis VA Center for Chronic Diseases Outcomes Research in the reviews of 6 phytotherapeutic agents (Serenoa repens, Hypoxis rooperi, Secale cereale, Pygeum africanum, Urtica dioica, Curcubita pepo)from 44 studies, showed no convincing evidence supporting the use of Curcubita pepo alone for treatment of BPH(17).
7. Spinach
Spinach is an edible flowering plant in the genus Spinacia, belongings to the family of Amaranthaceae and native to central and southwestern Asia.
The green leaves vegetable is considered a healthy plant containing vitamins and minerals.
The study of the effect of 3 anti-oxidants [a water-soluble natural anti-oxidant. NAO (200 mg/kg). found in spinach leaves; epigallocatechin-3 gallate, EGCG (200 mg/kg), a major green tea polyphenol; and N-acetylcysteine, NAC (125 mg/kg)] in TRAMP in wild-type male mice suggested the formula improved NAO in reduced hyperplasia at weeks 9 and 13(18).
In a case-control study of prostatic cancer which consisted of 100 patients matched for hospital, age (+/- 3 yr) and hospital admission date (+/- 3 months) to patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH) and hospital controls, conducted by the Kyoto University, researcher found that frequent intake of spinach (RR = 1.96: 1.01-7.73), a typical green and yellow vegetable, was associated with reduced risk BPH and prostate cancer(19).
8. Mushrooms
Mushroom, a standard name of white button mushroom is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus produced above ground on soil or on its food source, belonging to the genus A. Muscaria in the family Amanitaceae.
In the examination of methanol extracts of 19 edible and medicinal mushrooms on 5alpha-reductase activity, scientists indicated that all 19 mushrooms exert inhibited effects of the testosterone-induced growth of the ventral prostate in castrated rats(20).
But the study conducted by Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine, Maebashi suggested oral administration of an extract of mushroom Phellinus linteus induced prostate enlargement(21).
Therefore using mushroom in treating BPH should be taken with care only with the approval of the specialist.

The Effects of Coffee Intake on The Prevalent Risk Factors of Metabolic Syndrome
Moderate intake of coffee daily and regularly may have a therapeutic effect in reduced risk and treatment of metabolic syndrome, some scientists suggested.
Coffee, second to green tea, is a popular and social beverage made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.
According to epidemiological studies, drinking coffee daily has a strong implication in numbers of health benefits, including cancers(1), neurodegenerative diseases(2) and heart diseases(3), diabetes(4),......
Some researchers also showed that intake of coffee beverage may prevent premature death and reduce mortality(5).
Metabolic Syndrome is a group of risk factors associated with the development of cardiovascular disease and types 2 diabetes, including high blood pressure, abnormally high blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels,.....
Although the exact causes of the syndrome are still under-investigated, some researchers suggested that overweight or obesity-induced insulin resistance and inactivity are associated with a closed link to conditions of metabolic syndrome.
Other researchers postulated that metabolic syndrome may be an underlying disorder of energy utilization and storage.
In fact, metabolic syndrome also correlates to numbers of a marker of systemic inflammation, including increased levels of C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and others...
Levels of C-reactive protein is considered as a biomarker of systematic inflammation.
Fibrinogen is a glycoprotein circulated in the blood with coagulated function involving early phase tissue damage or injury.
Hyperfibrinogenemia may be considered a component of the metabolic syndrome.
Interleukin 6 is a proinflammatory cytokine produced at the site of inflammation, particularly in the acute phase of infection. Targeting Interleukin 6 may be considered as an effective prevention and treatment of models of chronic inflammatory diseases.
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) plays a key role in systemic inflammation and the acute phase reaction.
In obese patients, the proinflammatory cytokine is also associated to insulin resistance and metabolic abnormalities.
Dr. Marsland AL, the lead author after examining the results of the experiment of 645 community volunteers aged 30 to 54 year.in the study of "Systemic inflammation and the metabolic syndrome among middle-aged community volunteers" said, "Inflammation was positively associated with this common factor, accounting for 54% of its variance and partially mediating statistical aggregation of the component factors comprising the metabolic syndrome".
These results also provided a strong argument of including markers of systemic inflammation in the definition of the syndrome and its role in the induction of pathogenesis.
Furthermore, according to the searching of database from f PubMed and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) for relevant articles published between 1 January 1999 and 31 May 2015, including 11 published reports and 13 studies with a total of 159,805 participants were eligible for our meta-analysis, the relative odd risk ratio of metabolic syndrome between the highest vs lowest category of coffee consumption was 0.872
The review also observed a nonlinear relationship between coffee and coffee caffeine consumption in ameliorated risk of metabolic syndrome, by dose-response analysis.
Additionally, in a cross-sectional population-based survey of 8,821 adults (51.4% female) conducted in Krakow, Poland. to evaluate the coffee and tea consumption and risk of metabolic syndrome, using food frequency questionnaires, observation of the questionnaire returned from participants expressed an interesting association between high coffee consumption of 3 cups and the clusters of lower BMI, waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, triglycerides, and higher HDL cholesterol than those drinking less than 1 cup/day.
The study apparently indicated that people drinking 3 cups of coffee daily and regularly have a favorably ameliorated risk of metabolic syndrome even after adjusting for potential confounding factors.
More importantly, the study also pointed out that high coffee consumption was negatively associated with waist circumference, hypertension, and triglycerides in women but not in men.
Interestingly, in animal evaluation of the effect of coffee drinking on clinical markers of diabetes and metabolic syndrome in Zucker rats including Diabetic Zucker rats with metabolic syndrome and control Zucker rats, researchers at the Fluminense Federal Institute found that after animals received daily doses of coffee drink by gavage for 30 days, coffee treated group expresses a decreased risk of metabolic syndrome through reduced serum glucose, total cholesterol, and triglycerides in compared to non treatment group.
Dr. Abrahão SA, the lead researchers said, "The results demonstrate that treatment with roasted coffee drink, because of its hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effect, is efficient in the protection of animals with metabolic syndrome and diabetes mellitus type 2".
The findings from the above studies suggested that coffee and coffee caffeine drinking daily and regularly have a favorably profound effect in inhibited risk of metabolic syndrome, particularly in women.

Infectious Diseases Caused By Over Growth of Candida - The Anti Intestinal Dysbiosis Therapies
Candida albicans are members of a large group of microorganism whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within the membranes, including yeast(2)(3), fungi(4)(5)(6), and mold(6) that live among the gut flora in the human mouth and gastrointestinal tract.
Non-albicans Candida (NAC) species cause 35-65% of all candidaemias in the general patient population(1).
Dysbiosis is a medical condition in the gastrointestinal tract, caused by either intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) or small intestinal fungal overgrowth.
Some researchers suggested, " dysbiosis may not be the most important factor, rather the products of interaction between diet and the microbiome and "High-protein diets are thought to result in the production of carcinogenic metabolites from the colonic microbiota that may result in the induction of neoplasia in the colonic epithelium"(1).
Dr. Sara Gottfried MD in the article of " Dysbiosis Decoded: Symptoms, Why You Get It, and Link to Autoimmunity, Breast Cancer, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Plus Other Common Conditions" suggested that if you experience 5 of below symptoms, you may be infected by intestinal fungal overgrowth dysbiosis(a).
Here is the list provided by the doctor(a)
* Frequent gas or bloating on most days of the week
* Cramping, urgency, and/or mucus in your poop once per week
* Brain fog, anxiety, or depression
* Food sensitivities
* Missing micronutrients
* Chronic bad breath
* Loose stool, diarrhea, constipation, or a combination
* Diagnosis of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
* History of “stomach bugs,” gastroenteritis, and/or food poisoning
* History of prolonged antibiotics such as for acne or sinusitis
* Carbohydrate intolerance, particularly after eating fiber and/or beans
* Fatigue or low energy
* Use of anti-acids for heartburn, reflux, or a hiatal hernia?
* Autoimmunity, or an autoimmune condition such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, psoriasis, or multiple sclerosis
* Sinus congestion
The therapies that Inhibit Intestinal Dysbiosis Caused by Over Growth of Candida
1. Probiotics
Probiotics are live micro-organisms conferred a health benefit on the host and found to benefit the digestive system(363), including inflammatory bowel disease(364).
According to Dalian Medical University, there are many causes of dysbiosis, such as prolonged period intake of antibiotic used widely in conventional medicine for the treatment of bacterial infection(365).
Dr. McFarland LV at the University of Washington said that the use of probiotics to restore the balance of undisturbed microbiota in a healthy individual is most effective than patients with the most disruptive event and probiotic therapy and pre-existing disrupted microbiota and then most probiotic therapy(366).
2. Prebiotics
Prebiotic, the non-digestible food ingredients and the most prevalent forms of prebiotic is nutritionally classed soluble fiber(367), including Galactooligosaccharide, stimulated the production of number and/or activity of bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria(368) and/or activity in the digestive system(369) in ways claimed to be beneficial to health of the host, by counteracting to the overgrowth of bad bacteria(371)(372), including candida albicans.
3. High fiber foods
Fiber is the indigestible portion of plant foods having two main components soluble and insoluble fiber, consisted non-starch polysaccharides such as arabinoxylans( woods and cereal grains), cellulose(a linear chain of several hundred to many thousands of linked D-glucose unit) and many another plant component.
While it is beneficial for alleviating symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome(373), such as diarrhea and/or constipation and abdominal discomfort, it is also a prebiotic(374) which is beneficial to health of the host by enhancing the production of good bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract(375) and counteracting to the overgrowth of bad bacteria, including candida albicans.
4. Avoid allergic foods
Eating allergic foods often causes symptoms of digestive disorders(376), including gas, stomach pains, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, etc. as allergen-producing L. lactis strains(377) induced imbalance of bacteria in digestive systems, that can lead to overgrowth of bad bacteria quickly.
5. Regular intake of Allium satvum (garlic)
Allium satvum is a species in the onion family Alliaceae, native to Central Asia.
Garlic beside is best known for its effectiveness in treating hypertension(378), hyper cholesterol(379), blood thinner(380) and cancer(381), it also contains a high amount of phytoncides that inhibits the growth of microorganisms(382) and phytoalexin called allicin which processes anti-oxidative(383)(384) and anti-microbial effects(385).
The herb would be helpful to keep a healthy digestive system and prevent the growth out of control of bad bacteria.
6. Enhances the immune system
Living healthy and eating healthy foods such as whole grain, fresh fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds, beans and legumes provide your body with necessary nutrients, including antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, that not only optimizes the digestive absorption but also enhances the immune system(386)(387)in fighting against inflammation(389) and infection(388) caused by virus and bacteria.
7. UVC therapy
Light therapy is considered as a type of treatment of exposing to daylight or to specific wavelengths of light, used to accelerate wound healing(390), hair growth, and improved blood properties(391).
Statistical analysis found in vitro candida strains were sensitive to UVC(392) and photodynamic therapy with malachite green(393).
8. Exercise
Exercise is important in enhancing the immune system(394) to reduce the likelihood of getting yeast infections(385) but also put your body in a better position to fight off the candida.
9. Reduce stress
Signs of stress may be cognitive, emotional, physical or behavioral, signs of poor judgment, a generally negative outlook, can depress the immune system(395) and impair the digestive system(396), causing psoriasis(397), a chronic autoimmune disease and gastrointestinal tract infection(396), leading to more favorable conditions for unhealthy candida to multiple.
10. Specific sexual practices and sexual behavior
A study in the USA revealed that a 75% percent of women have had candida yeast overgrowth at some points in their lives in comparison to only 45% of men. Sexual practices such as receptive anal and oral sex and douching increase the risk of infectious candida(398).
Risk of vulvovaginal candidiasis also increases in women who have sex with several women partners(399)(400). If you noticed changes in your body such as thick, cheese-like discharges, pain during sex and an itchy burning sensation, check with your doctor immediately.

Weight Loss And Weight Maintenance Problems? Try This Legume, Scientists Say
According to the University of Calgary study, dried peas fiber may have a profound and positive effect in induced and sustained weight loss in overweight and obese subjects.
Obesity is a medical condition characterized by excess body fat accumulated over time.
Overweight is a condition of excess body weight relative to the height.
According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity.
Statistic shows, 68% of the American population are either overweight or obese.
The article written by LOUISE LUCAS AND ALAN RAPPEPORT and posted on Financial Times, suggested, " Diet aids are often more successful at shedding dollars than pounds – for manufacturers as well as consumers and "The weight-management industry, worth $11-billion in retail sales according to data company Euromonitor, should by rights be a major beneficiary of the times".
However, how many people have followed through all those programs? How many people have maintained weight reduction? The answers are debatable, depending on who you talk to.
One thing for sure, most weight programs are not working to their promises, for whatever reasons, otherwise, the statistic should show a rate reduction of obesity in the US, over the years.
The health line in its website indicates, there are as much as 20 reasons, "Why You're Not Losing Weight" in the article with the same title,
1. Maybe You Are Losing Without Realizing It
2. You're Not Keeping Track of What You're Eating
3. You're Not Eating Enough Protein
4. You're Eating Too Many Calories
5. You're Not Eating Whole Foods
6. You're Not Lifting Weights
7. You're Binge Eating (Even on Healthy Food)
8. You're Not Doing Cardio
9. You're Still Drinking Sugar
10. You're Not Sleeping Well
11. You're Not Cutting Back on Carbohydrates
12. You're Eating Too Often
13. You're Not Drinking Water
14. You're Drinking Too Much Alcohol
15. You're Not Eating Mindfully
16. You Have a Medical Condition That is Making Things Harder
17. You're Addicted to Junk Food
18. You've Been Starving Yourself For Too Long
19. Your Expectations Are Unrealistic
20. You're Too Focused on "Dieting"

Dried pea is a small but nutritionally mighty member of the legume family, genus Pisum belongings to the family Fabaceae with a healthy source of proteins, fibers, vitamins, and minerals.
In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study, with overweight and obese (BMI = 25-38) adults randomized to either a 15 g/d yellow pea fibre supplemented group or isocaloric placebo group for 12 weeks (n = 30/group), researchers found that peas fiber displays a significant effect in weight reduction through various mechanisms, including improvement of metabolic syndrome and gut microbiota expression.
Metabolic syndrome is associated with weight gain due to its effects in increased odds of low HDL and high triglycerides relative in compared to participants with continuously stable weights(4).
According to the Université de la Méditerranée, gut microbiota expression is correlated to host weight. And microbial changes in the human gut were proposed to be one of the possible causes of obesity(5).
Dr. Jennifer E Lambert, the lead author said, " feeding the prebiotic fiber oligofructose for 12 weeks reduced levels of the orexigenic hormone ghrelin and increased levels of the anorexigenic hormone PYY in overweight adults which corresponded with lower self-reported energy intake [13]. In the long-term, these changes in postprandial peptide secretion may promote weight loss through reductions in ad libitum food intake", and "Both bacterial abundance and composition can be altered with lifestyle changes. Indeed, part of the role of intestinal bacteria in weight control has been elucidated through the study of patients receiving bariatric surgery".
Additionally, in the examined the nutritional effects and acceptability of two high-fiber hypocaloric diets differing in sources of fiber: (a) beans or (b) fruits, vegetables, and whole grains of 2 men, 18 women, mean age = 46.9, and mean BMI = 30.6. with participants completed 3-day food diaries in each of the two baseline weeks, researchers indicated that
*. There is no difference in the outcome of the fiber intake of all groups. Both diets increased fiber intake from 16.6 in compared to baseline.
*. Fiber intake showed a consistent effect in reduced weight status overtreatment in both groups with mean weight loss was 1.4 kg.
*. The returned questionnaire also addressed the hunger decreased and fullness increased during the testing period in both groups.
*. Both diets were rated as potentially acceptable as long as six months.
The findings suggested that bean and fruits, vegetables, and whole grains fiber demonstrated a similar efficacy in increased satiation and reduced hunger in induced weight loss.
.
Interestingly, in a total of 173 women and men, with a mean body mass index of approximately 36 kg m(-2) (one-fifth with diabetes type 2) randomised to a high-fibre bean-rich diet with fibre intakes of 35.5 (18.6) g day(-1) for women and 42.5 (30.3) g day(-1) for men, or a low-carbohydrate diet, researchers found that in 123 (71.1%) completers at 16 weeks
*. The mean (SD) weight loss of both groups was 4.1 (4.0) kg.
*, Fiber dietary group expresses a higher weight loss of 5.2 in compared to 4.5 kg in low-carbohydrate group.
3. High-fiber diet shows a better decreased low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol and total cholesterol levels compared to a low-carbohydrate diet.
Dr. Tonstad S, the led author said."After 52 weeks, the low-carbohydrate (n = 24) group tended to retain weight loss better than the high-fiber group (P = 0.06), although total cholesterol remained lower with the bean-rich diet (P = 0.049)."
Taking all together, there is no doubt that fibers of bean or other sources as functional foods, may have strong implication in induced weight loss and weight management for overweight and obese subjects.
The amounts of fiber intake should be consulted with your doctors to prevent overdoses constipation.

Beware of These Symptoms of Perforated Appendicitis, A Life Threatening Condition
Appendicitis is a condition of inflammation of the appendix.
The condition is classified as an emergency, in many incidences, required the removal of the appendix.
Early diagnosis is easily treated with 100% recovery.
If burst, or perforate, spilling infectious materials into the abdominal cavity can be life-threatening.
And depending to each patients condition, treatment of appendicitis perforate may opt for conservative treatment by means of an intravenous antibiotic therapy to solve acute abdomen pain, planning a routinary interval appendectomy (IA) after some months or an immediate appendectomy(4).
Examples are quoted directly from the joint study led by the Institute for Maternal and Child Health - IRCCS Burlo Garofolo
[Patient 1. immediate appendectomy
This 5-year old girl showed the following symptoms: 5 days fever, abdominal pain, and vomit. Leukocytes and PCR were 18 × 103 and 16 (mg/dl) respectively.
The US showed perforated appendicitis associated with an inflammatory mass.
We decided to perform an immediate video-assisted appendectomy through a subumbilical incision for the laparoscopic operative trocar insertion.
We found a subhepatic necrotic appendix surrounded by an abscess.
To dissect and extract the appendix, it was necessary to enlarge the subumbilical incision and create a second access in the left iliac fossa. Nasogastric tube (NT) and vesical catheter (VC) were placed. Surgery time was 165 min.
Oral feeding started on day 4. Hospital stay was 9 days.
She was treated with a triple antibiotic therapy (ampicillin/sulbactam 50 mg/kg every 8 h, metronidazole 10 mg/kg every 8 h, tobramycin 5 mg/kg in a single dose) for 9 days.
In the postoperative stage, an infection of the subumbilical wound was observed.
Patient 2: immediate appendectomy
This 4-year old girl reported having abdominal pain and fever for 3 days. Leukocytes and PCR were 24 × 103 and 20 mg/dl respectively.
The US showed a thickening of the appendix with a pericecal effusion without a secure image of the abscess.
An immediate video-assisted appendectomy was performed through a single enlarged subumbilical incision.
We found a necrotic appendix with an inflammatory mass involving the right tube and ovary.
The tube wall was very fragile and during the procedure, a tubal lesion led to a partial tube removal. NT and VC were placed. Surgery time at 70 min.
Oral feeding started on day 3. Hospital stay was 10 days. Our standard triple antibiotic therapy was continued for 10 days.
In the postoperative stage, a subumbilical wound infection was observed](4).
Dr. Edoardo Guida and colleagues said, " In the case of perforated appendicitis with an abscess and coprolith is an initial conservative case management followed by a routine interval appendectomy performed not later than 4 months after discharge"(4).
Therefore, to rule out perforated appendicitis, you must understand the signs and symptoms of below and act accordingly
1. Abdominal pain and upper respiratory tract infection
Although appendicitis is the condition that most commonly requires emergent abdominal surgery in the pediatric population, less than 2% of the disease occurs in infants and it is even more uncommon in neonates.
There is a report of a rare case of a 14-month-old child presenting with abdominal pain first diagnosed with upper respiratory tract infection and then admitted to Paediatric Surgery Department with a final diagnosis of acute appendicitis, according to the FONDAZIONE IRCCS CA’ GRANDA – Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico(1).
2. Symptoms of vomiting, fever, pain, anorexia, diarrhea, abdominal tenderness, peritonitis, temperature 38.0 degrees C or more, abdominal distension, Leukocytosis, small-bowel obstruction (SBO), contrast enemas and perforated appendicitis.
According to some researchers, if you experience all these symptoms persistently over 3 days or more, you may be in the early stage of appendicitis. Please check with your doctors right the way.
In the study to identify the presenting symptoms and signs in this age group and examine their subsequent management and outcome, by the The Scarborough Hospital, indicated that in 27 children less than 3 years old (mean 23 months) comprised 2.3% of all children with appendicitis in the series, the most common presenting symptoms were vomiting (27), fever (23), pain (21), anorexia (15), and diarrhea (11).
The average duration of symptoms was 3 days, with 4 or more days in 9 children. Eighteen children were seen by a physician before the correct diagnosis was made; 14 were initially treated for an upper respiratory tract infection, otitis media, or a urinary tract infection.
The most common presenting signs were abdominal tenderness (27), peritonitis (24), temperature 38.0 degrees C or more (21), abdominal distension (18), Leukocytosis (<12.0 x 10(3)/mm(3)) was found in 18, tenderness was localized to the right lower quadrant (RLQ) in 14 and was diffuse in 10.
Abdominal radiographs demonstrated findings of a small-bowel obstruction (SBO) in 14 of 21 patients, a fecalith in 2, and a pneumoperitoneum in 1. Contrast enemas were performed in 6 children, 5 of whom had a phlegmon or an abscess. Perforated appendicitis was found in all 27 patients. An appendectomy was performed in 25 and an RLQ drain was placed in 18(2).
3. An abdominal mass, guarding, rebound tenderness, rigidity, diffuse or focal tenderness, diarrhea, emesis, fever, pain, and anorexia
According to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, the common physical signs of an abdominal mass, guarding, rebound tenderness, rigidity, and diffuse or focal tenderness and common symptoms are diarrhea, emesis, fever, pain, and anorexia with the most common presenting symptom was abdominal pain (94%); the most common sign was abdominal tenderness (95.8%)(3).

Abdominal radiographs demonstrated findings of a small-bowel obstruction (SBO) in 14 of 21 patients, a fecalith in 2, and a pneumoperitoneum in 1. Contrast enemas were performed in 6 children, 5 of whom had a phlegmon or an abscess. Perforated appendicitis was found in all 27 patients. An appendectomy was performed in 25 and an RLQ drain was placed in 18(2).
3. An abdominal mass, guarding, rebound tenderness, rigidity, diffuse or focal tenderness, diarrhea, emesis, fever, pain, and anorexia
According to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, the common physical signs of an abdominal mass, guarding, rebound tenderness, rigidity, and diffuse or focal tenderness and common symptoms are diarrhea, emesis, fever, pain, and anorexia with the most common presenting symptom was abdominal pain (94%); the most common sign was abdominal tenderness (95.8%)(3).

The Phytochemicals That Suppress Over Growth of Candida, Scientists Say
Candida albicans are members of a large group of microorganism whose cells contain complex structures enclosed within the membranes, including yeast(2)(3), fungi(4)(5)(6), and mold(6) that live among the gut flora in the human mouth and gastrointestinal tract.
Non-albicans Candida (NAC) species cause 35-65% of all candidaemias in the general patient population(1).
Phytochemicals are various biologically active compounds found in plants.
The major function of these chemical compound is to protect the host plant against oxidation
Today, the name list of phytochemicals found in plants are only represented a tiny fraction of entire phytochemicals family.
According to general belief, human will never find a complete list of phytochemicals in plants which contains millions of known and unknown species.
In human, intake of phytochemical regularly from food sources is found to exhibit certain health benefits, including
* To act as an antioxidant against free radical overexpression in the initiated change of cellular DNA - the early onset of developing certain types of cancer(a)
* To act as hormones modulator against the imbalance of hormone in the host(b).
* To act as enzymes stimulator again the st imbalance of ratio of host antioxidant and ROS levels(c).
High levels of free radical facilitated oxidative stress are associated with the risk of chronic physical and mental health.
Imbalance of ratio of ROS species and antioxidant enzymes in the host tissue have played an essential role in the initiated expression of healthy cell cytotoxicity that can alternate DNA transcription in precipitated the development of chronic ailments such as overgrowth of candida.
* To act as anti-infection agent(d) against microorganisms which cause inflammation due to acute and chronic infection.
In many cases, biofilm(microorganisms with cells stick to each other on a surface) formation(7) gene mutations(8) and over expression of genes(9)(10) are often associated with increased candida resistance toward antifungal drugs.
The Anti Over Growth of Candida Phytochemicals
1. L-glutamine
L-glutamine is one of the 20 amino acids encoded by the standard genetic code and used to treat certain gastrointestinal disorders(342)(343) by serving as a source of fuel for the cells that line the gastrointestinal tract.
According to Ankara University, L-glutamine inhibited the over growth of candida through its antimutagenic and antimicrobial activities(344).
2. N-acetyl-glucosamine
N-acetyl-glucosamine is a monosaccharide derivative of glucose that supports the digestive track function and maintains healthy intestinal lining by stimulating cell growth in the intestinal tract(345).
According to National Institute of Plant Genome Research, GIG2 (GlcNAc-induced gene 2). involved in the metabolism of N-acetylneuraminate (sialic acid), effectively decreased fungal burden in the mouse model(346).
3. Rice-bran oil Extracted
from the germ and inner husk of rice, containing a compound gamma-oryzanol(347) showed to reduce the risk of gastric ulcers caused by stress while at the same time maintaining gastrointestinal motility(348).
According to Manipal Academy of Higher Education (Deemed University, rice bran oil immobilized lipase from Candida, a potential pathway for fungal overgrowth(349).
4. Pancreatic enzymes supplements
Pancreatic enzymes found as supplements and in certain foods allow more bacteria to grow in the intestine by enabling the food to be digested a lot easier(350). Insufficient pancreatic enzymes can quickly encourage Candida overgrowth in the digestive tracts(351).
5. Butyric acid
Butyric acid, a fatty acid occurring in the form of esters in animal fats and plant oils, was effective in inhibited pathogenic organisms(352) through improved digestion and promoted intestinal health(353) by producing bacteria to feed on lactic acid, then multiplying and revving up their production(354).
Butyric acid also consists anti-inflammatory property(355) and strengthens the intestinal mucosal barrier. (356).
5. Fructo-oligosaccharides(FOS)
Fructo-oligosaccharides(FOS) is a class of oligosaccharides used as an artificial or alternative sweetener(357), extracted from fruits and vegetables such as bananas, onions, chicory root, garlic, asparagus, barley, wheat, tomatoes, and leeks(358). It is inulin-type prebiotics(359), stimulated the growth of friendly bacteria in the intestine track to counter react to other bad bacteria(360)(362) such as candida. Oligosaccharides also induce gas formation, through increasing fecal biomass and water content of the stools, for improvement of bowel habits(361),

Coffee Drinkers, Beware of Adverse Effect of Iron Deficient Anemia, Scientists Warn
Anemia is a medical condition characterized by reduced numbers of healthy red blood cells or hemoglobin that bind the oxygen for the body needs.
Iron deficiency anemia is a type of anemia caused by insufficient levels of iron, the substance that plays an essential role for production hemoglobin.
Patients with iron deficiency anemia may induce symptoms of tiredness and shortage of breath due to oxygen deficiency.
Most people believe that the condition can easily be cured by intake of iron supplement. However, according to my experience, iron is hard to absorb in supplement form, even in an empty stomach.
Intake of iron supplements in patients with iron deficiency anemia may experience symptoms of stomach cramps, nausea, and diarrhea.
In severe cases, iron insufficiency may facilitate symptoms of extreme fatigue, weakness, pale skin chest pain, fast heartbeat, headache, inflammation, brittle nails..... and dizziness.
Some researchers suggested that in the prevention of digestive symptoms, a small amount of food intake together with the supplement may be required in some people.
Others advised that iron supplement should not be taken together with high fiber foods, such as whole grains, raw vegetables, bran and foods or drinks with caffeine.
Please make sure that you do not take milk, calcium, and antacids with iron supplements
More importantly, intake of the iron supplement may also interact with some medicine such as tetracycline, penicillin, and ciprofloxacin as well as diminishing efficacy of drugs used for Parkinson disease and seizures.
Genetic alternation and slow, chronic blood loss within the body such as stomach peptic ulcer, a hiatal hernia, a colon polyp or colorectal cancer are the major causes of iron deficiency anemia.
According to Dr. Aime Crespo at Children's Hospital Boston, genetic mutation of deficiency of the TMPRSS6 protein is associated to the cause for the body to produce too much hepcidin, a hormone that inhibits iron absorption by the intestine.
Truly, the long-term diet of iron deficiency and chronic use of a drug that induces gastric bleeding such as aspirin are also associated with the prevalent risk factor in the occurrence of iron deficiency anemia.
Coffee, a popular and social beverage all over the world, particularly in the West, is a drink made from roast bean from the Coffea plant, native to tropical Africa and Madagascar.
Dietary iron beside is an important mineral for our body to make oxygen-carrying proteins hemoglobin for red blood cells and myoglobin for muscle functioning, the mineral also is needed for a wide variety of metabolic processes, including oxygen and electron transport, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis......
Coffee may interfere with digestive track function in absorbed nonheme iron from dietary sources, a respectable study suggested.
According to the lead author of the study, a cup of coffee intake showed to reduce iron absorption from a hamburger meal by 39%, in compared to 64% of tea, a potent inhibitor of iron absorption.
Even more interestingly, ingested a cup of drip coffee or instant coffee with a meal composed of semipurified ingredients, the rate of iron absorption was reduced from 5.88% to 1.64 and 0.97%, respectively
In the time length basic, coffee exhibited same degree of iron inhibition regardless an hour before or after the meals.
Furthermore, the authors also found that the change of concentration of coffee intake may also interfere with the rate of inhibition.
In the prevention of dietary consumption that induces iron deficiency, intake of iron inhibited beverage such as tea and coffee are recommended to add iron enhanced absorption foods into their diet such as ascorbic acid and meat, fish and poultry;... and reduced intake calcium.
Importantly, depletion of iron stores may only have minimum effect on enhanced iron absorption in people who follow an inadequate dietary situation, thus increased risk iron deficient anemia without even knowing it.
There is an algorithm established by the University of Göteborg, that calculate the amount of iron absorption without injection of dietary enhancers and inhibitors.
This algorithm is based on the study used basal dose absorption of 40% in compared to different amounts of dietary factors known to influence iron absorption by measuring iron absorption from 24 complete meals with mean iron absorption in 31 subjects who served a varied whole diet labeled with heme- and nonheme-iron tracers over a period of 5 days.
However, researchers of the study also said, "This algorithm has several applications. It can be used to predict iron absorption from various diets, to estimate the effects expected by dietary modification, and to translate physiologic into dietary iron requirements from different types of diets".
The findings suggested that coffee may have inhibited effect in reduced digestive system functioning in the absorption of dietary iron.
Therefore, people with iron deficient anemia should take only coffee with an extra portion of iron enhancers in their meal.
People who drink too much coffee may want to reduce numbers of a cup per day.
