“…Sage preserves a variety of foods, including meats and cheeses (Hedge, 1992;Tisserand and Balacs,1995). Sage is largely used as a savory food flavouring either as dried leaves or essential oil (Perry et al, 1999;Tsai & Yang, 2011).It is also used traditionally in food preparation. (Cuvelier et al, 1994;Hohmann et al, 1999;Lu and Foo, 2001;Wang et al, 1998;Zupko et al, 2001).…”

Labneh is one of the most popular dairy products in the Middle East and has gained immense popularity due to its higher nutritional value compared to traditional yogurt. Labneh is defined as a concentrated yogurt in which yogurt is concentrated by removing acidic whey from the solid parts. Sage Salvia officinalis and olive oil have many health benefits as good source of antioxidant compounds. In this study, sage powder and olive oil were in Labneh for increasing its health benefits. The incorporated results showed that the sage powder has no influence on pH, chemical composition and rheological properties, while olive oil significantly reduced the hardness and viscosity of Labneh. The treatments of Labneh with sage powder and olive oil were highly accepted in flavor by panelists. This study recommended that the adding of sage powder could be a good source of antioxidant compounds to increase the health benefits of labneh.

“…Here we detected the elevated extent of TNF-α and IL-1β in lung homogenate, which was obviously reduced by EO treatment in rats. In some trials, anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effect of EO and its extract has been identified [18][19][20]. Eucalyptol may regulate cytokine production in the airway through TLR 4 /NF-κB pathway, the mechanisms were to further indentify [21].…”

Eucalyptus oil (EO), an essential oil isolated from Eucalyptus leaves, was examined for its effect on LPS andKlebsiella pneumoniae -induced COPD in rats. The COPD model was induced by instilling intratracheally with LPS and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. P). The test compound, EO (30, 100 and 300 mg/kg), Prednisone Acetate (10 mg/kg) or vehicle was instilled intragastrically after three weeks exposure of LPS and K. P, lasted for 4 weeks. EO significantly reduced amounts of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and blood, and decreased bronchiolitis, emphysematous changes and thickness of bronchioles. It also significantly reduced the increased AB-PAS-positive goblet cells in bronchioles. Prednisone Acetate attenuated pulmonary inflammation and airway mucus hypersecretion, but no significant difference was found on emphysema. Pretreatment with EO markly reduced the production of proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-β in lung homogenate, significantly decreased the elevated malondialdehyde (MDA) level and and increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. These findings indicate that EO could exert an protective effect against LPS plus K. P-induced lung indury via inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines production and improvement of anti-oxidant status. Our results provide evidence that EO might have its potential to be a proper candidate drug in the treatment of COPD.

“…Natural products, medicinal plants, and their derivatives have been used as new sources of alternative therapies to treat or relieve diseases (Gurib-Fakin 2006). T. vulgaris is an essential oil with various potent biological activities, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities (Tsai et al 2011). Numerous studies have demonstrated the irreversible effects of thymol, the main compound of T. vulgaris, on the cell wall, cell membrane, and cellular organelles (Rasooli and Owlia 2005;Tsai 2011;van Vuuren et al 2009).…”
