“…Tea is one of the favorite beverages consumed worldwide ( 11 ). Vast accumulative evidence suggests that the consumption of tea and its components have various potential health benefits ( 12 ), including the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and cancer and its antibacterial, antiangiogenic, antiarthritic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, cholesterol-lowering, neuroprotective, and antiviral effects ( 13 ). Previous studies have indicated that tea consumption is correlated with a lower risk of stroke, depressive symptoms, and cognitive impairment ( 14 , 15 ).…”

BackgroundVast accumulative evidence suggests that the consumption of tea and its components have various potential health benefits. This study used a longitudinal study to examine the causality between tea consumption and frailty in older Chinese people.MethodsThis study employed the longitudinal data from 2008 to 2014 of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS), which were systematically collected through face-to-face interviews. Two thousand four hundred and seventy three participants completed six-follow-up surveys in 2014 and were analyzed in this study. The frailty index recommended by Searle and co-authors, including 44 health deficits, was used. A Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) was applied to determine the risk ratio (RR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) for frailty, and further subgroup analyses were conducted to investigate whether the risk differed stratified by age, sex, and socioeconomic status. Additionally, the interaction between tea consumption with sex and frailty was tested.ResultsOf the 2,473 participants, 14.1% were consistent daily tea drinkers, and 22.6% reported frailty at the 6-year follow-up. Compared to non-tea drinkers, consistent daily tea drinkers reported a significantly lower ratio of having frailty [risk ratio (RR) = 0.54, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.38–0.78], adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics, health behavior, socioeconomic status, and chronic illnesses. In further subgroup analyses, consistent daily tea consumption significantly reduced the risk of frailty for males (RR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.32–0.87) but not females (RR = 0.65, 95% CI: 0.37–1.12); in the young (RR = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.22–0.74) but not in the oldest (aged ≥ 80) (RR = 0.66, 95% CI: 0.40–1.06); informal education (RR = 0.48, 95% CI: 0.28–0.84) but not formal education (RR = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.37–1.03); financial dependence (RR = 0.42, 95% CI: 0.25–0.71) but not financial independence (RR = 0.71, 95% CI: 0.41–1.23). Additionally, females showed a lower tea-mediated risk of frailty in occasional tea consumers (RR = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.29–0.89) and inconsistent tea drinkers (RR = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.37–0.93).ConclusionsHabitual tea consumption can reduce the risk of frailty in older Chinese, and the benefit varied by age, sex, education, and financial support.

“…The aqueous extract of sour tea has the greatest antioxidant activity of all the components. The existence of an adequate supply of mucilage with soluble dietary fibers in the sepals of sour tea is one of its additional properties, it should be emphasized [12]. Within 22-35 days after blooming, there is a rise in mucilage of roughly 15-28%, which results in sour tea.…”

This research investigated the viability of using Hibiscus Sabdarifa sepal mucilage (HSSM) in conjunction with glycerol (10, 15 and 20%, w/w) and carboxymethyl cellulose (1%, w/w) to create a new biodegradable edible film. The microstructural, thermal, mechanical, physical, and antioxidant activities of the films made for use in the packaging sector were tested and assessed. Overall, the results demonstrated that increasing the percentage of glycerol in the optimal amount of Hibiscus Sabdarifa sepal mucilage increased the film thickness, moisture content, solubility, water vapor permeability, and elongation at break (EB%). Significant reductions were seen in the tensile strength, melting point, and glass transition temperature (Tg). The color of the films indicated that, despite becoming faintly green or crimson as the glycerol concentration increased, they remained transparent. In addition, the produced film exhibited notable antioxidant properties. Compared to films without glycerol, glycerol-containing film samples exhibited a uniform surface morphology devoid of cavities and fractures in electron microscope images. In combination with carboxymethyl cellulose, the sepal mucilage of Hibiscus Sabdarifa, a novel and innovative source, led to the production of biodegradable edible films with desirable properties.

Role of the renin–angiotensin system in the pathophysiology of coronary heart disease and heart failure: Diagnostic biomarkers and therapy with drugs and natural products

The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) plays a pivotal role in blood pressure regulation. In some cases, this steering mechanism is affected by various deleterious factors (mainly via the overactivation of the RAS) causing cardiovascular damage, including coronary heart disease (CHD) that can ultimately lead to chronic heart failure (CHF). This not only causes cardiovascular disability and absenteeism from work but also imposes significant healthcare costs globally. The incidence of cardiovascular diseases has escalated exponentially over the years with the major outcome in the form of CHD, stroke, and CHF. The involvement of the RAS in various diseases has been extensively researched with significant limelight on CHD. The RAS may trigger a cascade of events that lead to atherosclerotic mayhem, which causes CHD and related aggravation by damaging the endothelial lining of blood vessels via various inflammatory and oxidative stress pathways. Although there are various diagnostic tests and treatments available in the market, there is a constant need for the development of procedures and therapeutic strategies that increase patient compliance and reduce the associated side effects. This review highlights the advances in the diagnostic and treatment domains for CHD, which would help in subjugating the side effects caused by conventional therapy.
