Traditional Indian medicine, herb Salacia oblonga may help treat
diabetes Posted By: News-Medical in Medical Study News Published:
Tuesday, 8-Feb-2005 Printer Friendly Email to a Friend : : : : Herbs
used in traditional Indian medicine to treat diabetes seems to lower
blood sugar and insulin levels in a manner similar to prescription
drugs, a new study reports. Researchers gave extracts of the herb
Salacia oblonga to 39 healthy adults, and the results were promising.
The largest dose of the herb extract - 1,000 milligrams - decreased
insulin and blood glucose levels by 29 and 23 percent, respectively.
: : “These kinds of reductions are similar to what we might see with
prescription oral medications for people with diabetes,” said Steve
Hertzler, a study co-author and an assistant professor of nutrition
at Ohio State University. : : Salacia oblonga, which is native to
regions of India and Sri Lanka, binds to intestinal enzymes that
break down carbohydrates in the body. These enzymes, called
alpha-glucosidases, turn carbohydrates into glucose, the sugar that
circulates throughout the body. If the enzyme binds to the herbal
extract rather than to a carbohydrate, then less glucose gets into
the blood stream, resulting in lowered blood glucose and insulin
levels. : : “Lowering blood glucose levels lowers the risk of
disease-related complications in people with diabetes,” Hertzler
said. “Also, poor compliance with diabetes medications often hinders
the effectiveness of these drugs. It may be easier to get someone to
take an herb with food or in a beverage, as opposed to a pill.” : :
The study appears in a recent issue of the Journal of the American
Dietetic Association. : : Thirty-nine healthy adults participated in
four separate meal tolerance tests. These meals, which were given in
beverage form, were spaced three to 14 days apart. Each participant
fasted for at least 10 hours before consuming the test beverage. : :
Participants were asked to drink about two cups’ worth of the chilled
beverage, which contained zero, 500, 700 or 1,000 milligrams of
Salacia oblonga extract. Afterward, the researchers used the
finger-prick method to draw blood samples from each person every 15
to 30 minutes for three hours. These blood samples were used to
determine insulin and blood glucose concentrations. The biggest
changes in blood glucose and insulin levels usually happen within the
first two hours after eating. : : The beverage that contained the
highest concentration of the herbal extract - 1,000 milligrams -
provided the most dramatic reduction in insulin and blood glucose
levels. Insulin levels were 29 percent lower, while blood glucose
levels were 23 percent lower as compared to the control drink, which
contained no herbal extract. : : As Salacia oblonga can cause
intestinal gas, the researchers had the study participants collect
breath hydrogen samples hourly for eight hours after drinking the
test beverage. The participants collected their breath in small
plastic tubes. The researchers then analyzed these breath samples for
hydrogen and methane content - the level of either substance in the
breath corresponds to the level contained in the colon. : : The
subjects also rated the frequency and intensity of nausea, abdominal
cramping and distention and gas for two days after consuming each
test meal. : : While the test beverages containing Salacia oblonga
caused an increase in breath hydrogen excretion, reports of
gastrointestinal discomfort were minimal, Hertzler said. : : Right
now he and his colleagues are trying to figure out what dose of the
herb is most effective, and when it should be taken relative to a
meal. : : “We want to know how long it takes for the herb to bind to
the enzymes that break down carbohydrates,” Hertzler said. “The
participants in this study took the herb with their meal, but maybe
taking it before eating would be even more effective.” : : The
researchers also want to study the effects of Salacia oblonga in
people with diabetes. : : “A lot of studies show that lowering blood
sugar levels reduces the risk for all kinds of diabetes-related
complications, such as kidney disease and nerve and eye damage,”
Hertzler said. “We want to see if this herb has this kind of effect.”
: : Salacia oblonga is still relatively difficult to find in the
United States, Hertzler said, although there are manufacturers that
sell the herb through the Internet. : : This study was supported by
the Ross Products Division of Abbott Laboratories in Columbus. : :
Hertzler is continuing to conduct Salacia oblonga studies with the
Ross Products Division of Abbott Laboratories. He has no links to the
company beyond this affiliation. : : Hertzler conducted the work with
former Ohio State colleague Patricia Heacock, who is now at Rutgers,
the State University of New Jersey; Jennifer Williams, a clinical
scientist with Ross Products Division, Abbott Laboratories; and Bryan
Wolf, a former research scientists with Ross Products Division

No matter what vehicle you drive, whether it is a passenger car, a van, a Sport Utility Vehicle or a truck, it is subject to common car problems from time to time. Volvo cars are no excuse. Despite this car’s renowned safety features, durable and high quality Volvo Parts, they are prone to wear and tear, especially when abused. In order for your Volvo car to work always at its best, it needs to be maintained. There are thousands of Volvo Parts and Auto Parts stores that can help you do this with ease and convenience, but only one gives you the most comprehensive line of Volvo Parts and Volvo Car Parts store.

Starting problems are among the most common car problems you might encounter while driving your Volvo car. If your engine cranks normally despite low or high temperatures, there must be a problem with the fuel injection system. As we all know, fuel is the lifeblood of the vehicle so if there is insufficient amount of fuel reaching the engine, your car won’t be able to perform as it should. Having reliable Volvo diesel fuel injection parts in your car can guarantee you more efficient delivery of fuel to the engine.

There’s a big difference between a low quality fuel injection than a first-class Volvo fuel injection.

Compared to gasoline injectors, the diesel fuel injectors operate at a higher pressure so they are required to meet higher quality standards. Extreme heat can also cause wear and tear faster than expected so your Volvo fuel injector must be highly resistant to extreme temperatures. High quality fuel injectors are usually made of high alloy chrome steel that can withstand harsh conditions under the hood. You can get this and other Volvo fuel injection parts at Volvo Parts and Car Parts (http://www.voparts.com), a comprehensive Volvo auto parts store specializing in selling highly durable and top quality Volvo Parts.

There is no doubt that blogs are the “it” thing today in the online world. Wherever you surf, blogs are sprouting everywhere like mushrooms, whether they’re used for personal or business purposes. But for starters, what is a blog anyway? It is a diary where you can post your thoughts or feelings or whatnots, except that it is online and the public can read it. But enough of that. Gone were the days when they were used solely for personal reasons. On the business side, they can be a very useful tool to boost your business, and to keep your customers updated on the products and infos you have. But if you’re still struggling to catch up on the latest thing these days and you think you’re not much of a great writer either, let me give you some useful subjects you can write about to give your customers a lot of reasons to keep coming back to your site.

1. News. Okay, so maybe that’s basic. After all, your company or business is the reason you put up a blog, right? Write about the products you sell. Give them a bit of the benefits your potential customers might get for buying them, with a link back to your main site to read the entire sales letter. You can also write about updates to your product. Post news about the industry you’re in. If you’re selling products that help people get better search engine rankings, write about search engine news. Or, if you or your service has been featured on TV, papers, or notable websites, write about it. Don’t forget to post seminars or gatherings where you’ve been invited.

2. History of your business. Maybe this one has already been in your main website, but who cares? People forget it. They come and go and chances are, when they visit your site, they don’t read it. Write about how you began, the reputation and achievements you’ve earned, and the accolades or awards you received, with a link back your site. That way you’ll let them know why they should buy from you, and that you’re a real person who’s building a reputable business. Add some employee’s profile if you have someone working for you, too. If you have nice traffic or site stats, that’s also worth mentioning.

3. Customer’s feedback. When a raving customer emails you about how your product has helped him, share it in your blog. You’re giving your visitors a compelling reason to buy from you.

4. Site of the week / month. Mention a site that doesn’t compete with you but complements to your won. Explain to them why you like it, and why it deserves your accolade.

5. Contests, surveys, trivia, questionnaires. If you’re running a contest, post it in your blog to encourage visitors to join. Get their attention by including the prizes, a bit of the rules, with a link back to your site for more information regarding it. Or put a survey. That could give you information regarding the product you’re selling, as to how you could develop it further.

6. Tip of the day. Write about a new tactic you developed or something you learned and perfected.

So there. Whatever your business is, no doubt there’s always something you’ll definitely want to write about. Give it a try. And it will reward you soon.

Aside replacement and ornamental purposes, mobile phone accessories boost or enhance the use of our cellular devices. There are several types of accessories when it comes to mobile phones. We have operational accessories that helps users to safeguard their phones or enhance their operations. These include battery chargers, hands free kits antenna boosters and batteries.

Some accessories come in the form of attachment which are devices that enable you extend your phone to some other object. An example is speaker phone kits that enable you to drive whilst receiving calls and car phone holders that serve as carrying cases for drivers.

Cases form another category of accessories and are purchased to hold the phones. They come in various shapes and there are some that can be worn around the belt.

Then come the technical accessories like games, radiation shields, antenna boosters and ringtone downloads which have more to do with the technical functionality of the device.

Next comes the most common of all accessories – phone covers and face plates which can be found in various fancy designs.

That said, do we really need phone accessories? Yes we do – whether for fun or for protection of our mobile phones.

A Bluetooth device enables you to receive calls with just a small piece of cordless device in your ear. Will you risk driving by trying to reach your phone from the dashboard of you got a call?

While traveling, a travel charger may be needed in addition to the regular one. If you are hard pressed for time to charge the phone but still need to keep it running, you can plug the phone to the car charger whilst on the road to save time and to get the capacity to make and receive calls.

You need that case to protect your phone from scratches. Tech people are in constant interaction with hard objects like tools which can scratch their phones. So getting a case to protect the phone can save you the headache of buying a new phone too soon because of scratches.
If you make or receive a lot of calls, you may wish to keep a spare battery in case you lose power from the current one and not in a position to immediately recharge.
Lastly, if your mates have the same kind of phone as yours, you may want to get a customized ringtone to differentiate yourself. You can’t always be reaching for your phone when you hear that ringtone – it may be someone else’s ringing.

Accessories can be fun or a necessity depending on who is buying. Nevertheless, we should be very careful to buy right. Before you make a purchase, you have to triple check to make sure that the product or service is compatible with your phone. It should fit the phone with ease and if the accessory is electronic in nature, refer to the owner’s manual to check if that’s the right thing you are putting inside the phone.

The first thing that needs to be considered when planning the ultimate wedding is how much time you will give yourself for the planning. In essence; this means what day that you will set the date of the wedding.

This may sound like a trivial matter, but it really is important because it will let you know what the time limit is for making your preparations.

Some weddings can take up to 3-4 months to prepare for and plan. This is pretty typical; depending on how big you are planning for your wedding to be and how fancy etc.

If you are not giving yourself more than a month, then planning is naturally different. Because of the differences in the time that you are giving yourself to planning the wedding, it is best to give the best planning methods and you may use them or not use them as they apply to your case.

One of the most important factors that go with planning a wedding is determining who you will be delegating specific duties to. For example, if you are terrible at choosing flowers, who will you assign to do it for you?

It is always best to try to give different duties to others so that you will not be overwhelmed by them yourself. Let’s take a look at some of the various duties that you can hand out:

· Catering: Who do you believe would be the best person to handle all of the arrangements for the food and drink at your wedding?
· Invitations and seating arrangements: This person will be addressing and mailing out invitations and making sure that people are seated in a fashion that will ensure everyone’s mutual comfort and enjoyment
· Decorations for wedding and reception includes center pieces
· Rehearsal dinners etc.
· Music and/or DJ
· Brides maid and groomsmen gifts and favors
· Gowns, and tuxedos
· Bridal showers/bachelor parties etc.

All of these things are usual must haves when it comes to a wedding, unless of course, you opt not to have bridesmaids or groomsmen in the wedding. All of these things can be murder to try to do on your own as well.

That is why you have to get in touch with people who are capable of taking over some of the menial jobs for you. All of these things seem small at first, but they can quickly add up to quite a bit of money when they are all combined together.

After you have delegated the responsibilities, you should next set a specific time period to have all of the tasks completed. Creating a to-do list and time sheet is a great way to do this. That way, when all of the tasks are finished you can easily check them off.

You should set up specific times and days to discuss the progress of things as well, just in case things are not going so well. In doing this you will be able to help make sure that all things are running smoothly.

You might be wondering what happens when you have done all of this and are ready to get started. First of all, you have to be willing to follow the general wishes of the couple to be wed; that is unless you are the couple and are planning your own wedding.

When planning a wedding on a budget you have to lower your requirements just a bit. For example, you can’t try to have to filet mignon if you are throwing the wedding on a fish stick budget. I have broken down the various aspects of the wedding planning to the last details so that you will get a better idea of what I mean.
