The Herbal use in Reducing and Tratament of HypertensionAbstract: To examine the effect of some herbal remedies in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, especially in hypertension. We performed a literature review in the virtual library LILACS, Scielo, Google Scholar and Pubmed for the years 1990 to 2016. Results and Discussion: found and described 5 herbal medicines. The herbal medicine is widely used but many without scientific backgrounds, thus more studies are needed to prove the efficiency. Devido à alta prevalência de hipertensão e doenças cardíacas, a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), tem estimulado o desenvolvimento de políticas públicas que priorizam a utilização de plantas medicinais no tratamento de doenças, e enfatiza a necessidade de novas pesquisas feitas com plantas e produtos naturais (MARMITT et al., 2016).
Alcohol use disorders are among the most prevalent mental disorders in Brazil and worldwide. This substance is related to the low bioavailability of some important nutrients. In this sense, the present study aimed to relate the impairment in the absorption of nutrients with alcohol consumption. This is a simple literature review, with a search for the topic in databases and analysis of articles from the last 19 years. It has been observed that alcohol can impair intestinal absorption and increase renal excretion of folate. Some vitamins like vitamin A and C, B6, niacin have their absorption impaired by alcohol consumption. The deficiency of some vitamins and minerals, such as some of the complex B and magnesium, mineral that plays a crucial role in various reactions of the body. In this way, it was observed that the ingestion of alcohol, especially regular alcohol, has a direct association with losses in bioavailability and nutrient absorption.
