Antioxidant and inflammatory-modulating properties of ginger and bitterleaf teas.

The present study evaluated the effects of ginger and bitterleaf tea infusions on redox and inflammatory balance in rats. Twenty-four Wistar rats with weights of between 160 and 180 g were assigned into four (4) groups (n = 6). The control group received distilled water, while the remaining groups were administered tea infusions of ginger, bitterleaf, or a combination of both at 5 mg/mL, respectively. Bitterleaf and ginger teas elevated the levels of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and reduced glutathione in rat plasma and liver, while malondialdehyde levels decreased. Furthermore, ginger tea caused an increase in the expression of nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf-2) and reduced tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). The GC-MS analysis of the teas identified 77 chemical compounds, among which gingerol and precocene I were predominant. Collectively, the findings indicate, in particular, that ginger tea may boost antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacity by increasing Nrf-2 levels.

In this paper, we have examined the therapeutic properties and vital energy(生 氣) of traditional Korean Flower Teas with a focus on the actions of warmth energy, heat energy, coolness energy, and coldness energy, which are directly related to the physiological vitality of the human body, as elucidated in the 「Jangbulon」.
 In the context of Sasang constitutional medicine, the flow of vital energy(Qi) is considered the most critical issue in both physiological and pathological aspects. The 「Jangbulon」 elucidates the principles of generating warmth energy, heat energy, coolness energy, and coldness energy the flow of vital energy.
 The warmth energy of the digestive system flows in the upper intestine of the lungs and neck site, heat energy flows in the middle and upper intestine of the spleen and stomach, coolness energy flows in the lower intestine of the liver and small intestine, and coldness energy is explained to flow in the lower intestine of the kidneys and large intestine.
 Leejema connected human metaphysical mental actions to physiological actions in the body through vital energy and discussed the vitality of the human body. In Dongmuyugo he categorized the therapeutic properties of medicinal herbs based on Sasang constitutions and shared theories, treatment principles, and treatment experiences for various medical conditions that he gained through clinical practice.
 Examining representative flower teas for each Sasang type and vital energy, we find that: For Taeeumin, the chicory flower tea imparts coolness energy, the chrysanthemum tea provides warmth energy, the lotus flower tea embodies heat energy, and the plum blossom tea delivers warmth energy.
 For Soeumin, ginseng tea, angelica tea, and ginger tea represent heat energy.
 For Soyangin, houttuynia tea, green tea, and Cornus officinalis flower tea bestow coldness energy. For Taeyangin, the quince tea endows coolness energy, while the persimmon leaf tea provides warmth energy, enhancing energy circulation accordingly.
 This paper offers a fresh perspective on the field of vital energy actions in Sasang constitutional medicine, leveraging the insights from the 「Jangbulon」 and the therapeutic attributes of traditional Korean Flower Teas as outlined in the Dongmuyugo It aims to provide a practical approach to selecting flower teas tailored to one’s Sasang constitution to harmonize mind and body vitality.

Development and Characterization of Bioplastic Synthesized from Ginger and Green Tea for Packaging Applications

The world is suffering from heavy pollution because of synthetic petrochemical plastic used in our daily activities. A possible solution is the use of bioplastic synthesized from natural renewable resources. The present work investigates the development and characterization of polymer bioplastic using ginger tea and green tea to decrease the adverse effect of petrochemical plastic waste for versatile applications. Two kinds of bioplastic samples were produced with two types of tea, ginger tea and green tea, using glycerol, vinegar, starch, and water. SEM (scanning electron microscopy), FTIR (Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy), mechanical (tensile), TGA (thermogravimetric analysis), DSC (differential scanning calorimetry), and time tests of bioplastic degradation analysis were carried out to evaluate the morphological, mechanical, and thermal behaviors of the synthesized tea bioplastics. The research result showed ginger tea bioplastic had a maximum tensile strength of 2.9 MPa and a minimum elongation of 7.46 mm. More than 78% of degradation occurred in ginger bioplastic within 30 days. Compatible thermal and morphological characteristics are also observed in the prepared bioplastic samples.

Development of a rapid and efficient analytical method for trace lead determination: Manganese dioxide nanoflower based dispersive solid-phase extraction

Lead (Pb) is a heavy metal that is highly toxic and a major environmental pollutant. Anthropogenic activities are the main sources of Pb release into the air, water and food, from which humans and other organisms become exposed. In this study, a suitable, rapid, and environmental friendly dispersive solid phase extraction procedure based on manganese dioxide nanoflower (MnO 2 NF-DSPE) was developed for the effective enrichment of Pb coupled with flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). Under the optimal experimental conditions, limit of detection (LOD), quantification (LOQ) values and enhancement in detection power (EDP) obtained for the MnO 2 NFs-DSPE-FAAS system were calculated as 6.1 µg/L, 20.3 µg/L and 44, respectively. Three different ginger tea samples were used in recovery studies to investigate the applicability/accuracy of the proposed method. Matrix matching calibration strategy was performed in recovery studies and percentage recoveries were calculated between 106 and 122% with low standard deviation values. • Trace level lead was preconcentrated by DSPE prior to FAAS measurement. • MnO 2 nanoflowers were used as adsorbent in the extraction procedure. • LOD and LOQ for ginger tea matrix were 6.09 µg/L and 20.29 µg/L, respectively. • The detection limit for conventional FAAS system was improved by about 43.7 folds. • Recovery results for the prepared ginger tea were found in the range of 106.1–121.5%.

A study to assess the effectiveness of ginger tea on symptoms of dyspepsia among adults

Introduction: Dyspepsia is a common gastrointestinal (GI) condition around the world. Dyspepsia is a symptom complex that includes a variety of upper GI symptoms such as epigastric pain or burning, early satiety, and post-prandial fullness. Treatment with complementary and alternative medicines, particularly herbal remedies, is one option for treating dyspepsia symptoms. Objectives: The objectives of the study were to evaluate the effectiveness of ginger tea on symptoms of dyspepsia among adults Methods: A one-group pre-test and post-test research design with 30 samples who met the inclusion criteria was used. Demographic and clinical data were collected using a self-structured questionnaire. During the pre-test, a questionnaire (LDQ) was used to assess the severity of dyspepsia symptoms using an interview method. Following the pre-test, 100ml of freshly prepared ginger tea was given once a day, seven days a week, in the morning before meals. The same tool was used for the post-test after seven days of ginger tea administration. Data has been subjected to descriptive and inferential statistics Result: During the pre-test, 13(43.33 %) of the 30 samples had moderate dyspepsia, 9(30%) had severe dyspepsia, and 8(26.67%) had mild dyspepsia, whereas in the post-test, 14(46.67%) had moderate dyspepsia, 12(40%) had mild dyspepsia, and 4(13.33%) had severe dyspepsia. Ginger tea is effective when the pre-test and post-test values are compared. At the p&lt;0.001 level, the calculated paired ‘t’ test value of t = 9.104 was found to be statistically highly significant. Demographic variables such as marital status and clinical variables such as dyspepsia duration and smoking history show a significant association with post-test dyspepsia level at p&lt;0.05. Conclusion: According to the study findings, the overall pre-test symptom score was mild to moderate. The post-test symptom score of dyspepsia patients who were given ginger tea showed a significant reduction in symptom severity. It was concluded that ginger had a greater impact on symptom relief in dyspepsia patients than other foods.

How do others cope? Extracting coping strategies for adverse drug events from social media

Patients advise their peers on how to cope with their illness in daily life on online support groups. To date, no efforts have been made to automatically extract recommended coping strategies from online patient discussion groups. We introduce this new task, which poses a number of challenges including complex, long entities, a large long-tailed label space, and cross-document relations. We present an initial ontology for coping strategies as a starting point for future research on coping strategies, and the first end-to-end pipeline for extracting coping strategies for side effects. We also compared two possible computational solutions for this novel and highly challenging task; multi-label classification and named entity recognition (NER) with entity linking (EL). We evaluated our methods on the discussion forum from the Facebook group of the worldwide patient support organization ‘GIST support international’ (GSI); GIST support international donated the data to us. We found that coping strategy extraction is difficult and both methods attain limited performance (measured with F1 score) on held out test sets; multi-label classification outperforms NER+EL (F1=0.220 vs F1=0.155). An inspection of the multi-label classification output revealed that for some of the incorrect predictions, the reference label is close to the predicted label in the ontology (e.g. the predicted label ‘juice’ instead of the more specific reference label ‘grapefruit juice’). Performance increased to F1=0.498 when we evaluated at a coarser level of the ontology. We conclude that our pipeline can be used in a semi-automatic setting, in interaction with domain experts to discover coping strategies for side effects from a patient forum. For example, we found that patients recommend ginger tea for nausea and magnesium and potassium supplements for cramps. This information can be used as input for patient surveys or clinical studies.
