“…When people get stressed about life, the mPFC goes into overdrive. [21][22][23][24] Another brain region associated with depression is the amygdala, or "fear center." This part of the brain is responsible for the fight-or-flight response, which triggers the adrenal glands to release the stress hormone cortisol in response to fear and perceived danger.…”

Bipolar Disorder (BD), formerly manic-depressive illness or manic depression, is a lifelong mood disorder and mental health condition that causes intense shifts in mood, energy levels, thinking patterns, and behavior. These shifts can last for hours, days, weeks, or months, interrupting the ability to carry out daily tasks. The condition is manageable with medications, talk therapy, lifestyle changes, and other treatments, but the therapy results are unreliable in many patients. Most faith traditions have two forms of prayer: discursive and contemplative. Most believers practice discursive prayer. Medical research has shown the statistical healing effects of discursive prayer, but there is considerably less research on contemplative prayer. Hesse reports a method of teaching CP by asking a volunteer to help demonstrate the analogy between human and Divine relationships in the following quoted phases., Therefore, we hypothesize that CP might produce a significant depression improvement in BP patients. Two neurologists double-blind diagnosed five patients complaining of BD and five normal subjects. All cases expressed their belief in God, so CP is prayer, not non-theistic meditation. Patients will be free of medication and selected during depressive episodes. Among the trait markers are frontal alpha asymmetry,55,56, and changes in frontal qEEG cordance. A very stable QEEG pattern, consisting of frontal alpha asymmetry, was observed in all five patients. Hence, this pattern was used to compare QEEG before and after CP. Our main result showed that the focal left frontal Alpha increment disappeared after CP. Conclusion: CP is a promising tool for treating depression, organizing the function interplay among brain networks that subserve Cognition-emotion interactions in the prefrontal cortex.

“…EtOH is the main component of alcoholic beverages. Excessive EtOH consumption causes cellular damage, which further leads to adverse effects on the liver, kidney, heart, intestine, brain, and stomach [1][2][3][4][5]. Based on the report from the World Health Organization in 2018, the death rates caused by alcohol consumption correspond to 5.1% of all deaths worldwide.…”

Our previous studies have evaluated the bioactivities of a fucoidan isolated from Sargassum fusiforme (SF-F). To further investigate the health benefit of SF-F, in the present study, the protective effect of SF-F against ethanol (EtOH)-induced oxidative damage has been evaluated in in vitro and in vivo models. SF-F effectively improved the viability of EtOH-treated Chang liver cells by suppressing apoptosis. In addition, the in vivo test results indicate that SF-F significantly and dose-dependently increased the survival rate of zebrafish treated with EtOH. Further research results show that this action works through decreasing cell death via reduced lipid peroxidation by scavenging intracellular reactive oxygen species in EtOH-stimulated zebrafish. These results indicate that SF-F effectively protected Chang liver cells and zebrafish against EtOH-induced oxidative damage and suggest the potential of SF-F to be used as an ingredient in the functional food industry.
