A form of cancer that affects the rectum or colon (large intestine) is called colorectal (CRC). The main risk factors for CRC include dietary, lifestyle, and environmental variables. Currently natural polyphenols have demonstrated impressive anticarcinogenic capabilities.
Vacuum gas oil (VGO) is a hydrocarbon combination formed during crude extraction, and its consumption may have neurological repercussions. This study investigated the neuroprotective properties of
This present research was carried out to study the effects of spouting periods on the, proximate composition, mineral content, ant-nutritional factor and microbiological content sprouted sesame flour. Sesame seeds were soaked in water for 6 h period 0 h, 24 48 72 96 h. The dried at 70 °C 55 min milled into flour assayed anti-nutrient using standard methods. Results showed that increasing seed significantly (P < 0.05) increased protein (28.92–44.21 g/100 g) ash (9.13–9.93 but decreased...
Nigeria is a multi-ethnic and multicultural country where several traditional soups are indigenous to the various social groups. When prepared with right spices, it can be truly healthy multiple biochemical/nutritional benefits. The objective of study determine some blood parameters, total iron binding capacity (TIBC), polyphenols flavonoid content rats fed in Delta State, Nigeria. A twenty-five mature male albino Wistar were divided into five groups each. Group 1 served as control, 2 given...
Consumption of cassava meal affected by crude oil has significant effects on lipid and protein metabolism. The hepatoprotective action spices is mostly attributed to the suppression oxidation breakdown. This study examined restoration anti-lipidemic potential Monodora myristica (Gaertn.) in rats fed with contaminated oil.
 research involved 36 albino separated into six groups (n = 6). Group 1 (control) consumed without oil. 2 received Groups 3, 4, 5 various extracts M. myristica, i.e.,...
Cooking materials are important factors that basically intended to provide covering, protection and consumers’ choice of food products. The objective the study was determine vitamin profile minerals in serum rats fed maize-plantain pudding cooked using different leaves metallic plates. Different samples were prepared plantain maize flour blended together 1:1 ratio. In animal study, thirty divided into six groups five each. Rats Group A served as control. B given Tween 80. Groups C, D, E F...
Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is commonly used as a culinary flavouring, although research suggest that it toxic to people and laboratory animals, especially in high dosages. The study goal determine the impact of Aframomum sceptrum (ataiko) treatment on hepatic induced toxicity by MSG. Thirty-six albino rats (male) with weight 120 210 g were for study. separated into 6 groups which each group contains six rats. Group 1: normal control. 2: MSG only. 3 4 given then treated 250 350 mg/kg b.wt A....
Humans have a strong link of exposure to aluminium nitrate [Al (NO3)3] toxicity from various sources. This study examined physicochemical properties and varied concentrations bee honey (BH) in ameliorating (Al) toxicity. Thirty albino Wistar rats were used for this study. They separated into six Groups five each. Group 1 served as control, 2 was given Al (NO3)3 only, 3, 4, 5 6 then treated with 10 %, 25 50 % 100 BH daily weeks. Aluminium administered at dose 6.5 mg/kg, intraperitoneally. The...
Traditional maize-plantain puddings are usually cooked in diverse containers such as aluminium plates, cast iron plates and all types of edible plant leaves. This paper therefore, evaluates biochemical markers liver kidney function mature albino male rats fed with pudding delicacy Zingiber officinale (ginger) Musa paradisiaca (plantain) leaves using appropriate standard methods. Data obtained reveal that the activities hepatic marker enzymes; alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate...
Abstract To fill nutrient gaps, supplements are employed in the field of nutrition. The spice Xylopia aethiopica grows wild many African countries and has been used as flavouring for soups. This study evaluates polyphenols antioxidant profile different fractions X. methanol extract. Powdered sample (250 g) was suspended (1.5 litre) 48 hours extract concentrated at 45 °C using water bath to obtain crude which fractionated into n -hexane (n-Hex), chloroform (Chl), diethyl ether (DEE), -butanol...
Humans and animals are constantly exposed to crude petroleum contaminated diets in producing areas of the world. As a result, researches on-going find simple ameliorative agent against diet toxicity. The aim this study was evaluate protective effect Monodora myristica on some biochemical parameters rats fed with oil catfish (CPO-CCD). Thirty male albino were separated into six groups five as follows: group 1: control, 2: CPO-CCD only, 3: plus 1 ml/kg % tween 80, 4: M. water extract (MWE), 5:...
Malaria is associated with increased production of free radicals whose activities be reduced by antioxidants. This present study investigated the antioxidant ability aqueous extract Aframomum sceptrum. Adult albino male mice, eight weeks old, weighing 15g-25g and divided into 6 groups mice per group were used for experiment. Mice inoculated intraperitoneally 0.1ml parasitized blood suspension parasitemia assessed thin films stained Geimsa stain. Aqueous sceptrum was orally administered at...
Abstract The present study aimed to determine bioaccessibility (BA) of polyphenols (PPs) and flavonoids (FLs) compounds Ginger ( Zingiber officinale ) leaves extract after simulated gastrointestinal digestion (GID). One hundred grams Z. (raw dried) was extracted with 200 mL distilled water. Determination PPs BA index were carried on the before (BD) (undigested), post-intestinal without enzymes (PI-DWOEs) (PI-DWEs) using standard methods. results showed significant decrease in...
The purpose of this study is to provide an updated description spices and herbs in terms prospective usage food medicine ingredients as well preservatives. This review makes use systematically insightful scientific databases like PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct Web Science. Following abstract-based selection about 90 possibly relevant papers, 51 studies were thoroughly reviewed discussed. outcomes disclosed that since contain bioactive substances such tannins, alkaloids, phenolic diterpenes,...
The potential for antioxidant compounds to be released from the original food matrix is greatly determined by bioaccessibility. Digestive enzymes have a substantial impact on properties of dietary items after ingestion. present study aimed determine Ocimum africanum leaves aqueous extract (OALAE) before and in vitro digestion. In gastro-pancreatic digestion extracted samples (steamed, air dried fried) was done using artificial gastric fluid, 4 mL intestinal fluid. Antioxidant analyses were...
The objective of the study was to determine ameliorative effect extracts Elaeis guineensis leaves on crude oil induced genotoxicity. One hundred and twenty mature male albino Wistar rats were mobilised for this investigation. acclimatized fourteen days grower's mash. experiment divided into three categories: Pre-treatment, co-treatment, post-treatment. In each category, indiscriminately allotted eight groups. Five made a group. Rats fed mash only constitute Group 1. in 2 with contaminated...
