Did you know findings from a comprehensive systematic review on the safety and efficacy of Serenoa repens extract (saw palmetto extract) showed it provides symptom relief in patients with chronic prostatitis? 🔍 Adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, the review analyzed 21 studies involving 1666 patients. Saw palmetto extract demonstrated improved symptom relief compared to placebo, offering hope for those suffering from chronic prostatitis. When integrated into multimodal treatment regimens, especially alongside antibiotics, it displayed even better efficacy in managing both Category II and Category III prostatitis. This research 🔬 highlights the potential of saw palmetto extract as a valuable addition to chronic prostatitis treatment. #SawPalmetto #ChronicProstatitis #BreakthroughResearch Reference: Punyala, A., et al.

Canada has one of the highest prevalence of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in the world – estimated 18% vs. 11% globally [1]. This statistic highlights the significance of understanding the underlying mechanisms contributing to IBS. Recent research has shed light on a crucial aspect of IBS pathogenesis: the lower activity of glutathione reductase in IBS patients. This enzyme plays a vital role in maintaining the balance of reduced and oxidized glutathione (GSH) in colonic cells. In IBS patients, the lower glutathione reductase activity leads to an accumulation of oxidized GSH, contributing to a heightened oxidative stress load within the colon [2]. The increased oxidative stress in IBS patients has far-reaching consequences. Not only does it impact the colonic cells directly, but it also alters the immune response within the bowel. This dysregulation of the immune system further exacerbates the pathogenesis of IBS. As healthcare professionals, it is crucial to recognize the intricate interplay between lower glutathione reductase activity, increased oxidized GSH levels, and the subsequent oxidative stress and immune dysregulation in IBS patients. By understanding these underlying mechanisms, you can develop more targeted and effective treatment strategies for your patients. Let's continue to raise awareness and share knowledge about IBS among our healthcare community. Together, we can advance our understanding of this complex condition and improve the lives of those affected. #IBSResearch #IBSPathogenesis #OxidativeStress #GlutathioneReductase #HealthcareProfessionals #IBSAwareness #DigestiveHealth References: 1.

The prevalence of disease associated with chronic inflammation is anticipated to increase for the next 30 years. The World Health Organization ranks chronic disease associated with inflammation as the greatest threat to human health. “While 90% of human disease is related to the activation of the stress system, evidence suggests that excessive inflammation from stress plays critical roles in the pathophysiology of stress-related disease.”* That is why we are excited to share our new Inflammation Management Protocol, developed in collaboration with Dr. Penny Kendall-Reed, ND. This protocol is constructed to help you effectively address excess inflammation in your patients and takes into account that it is key to also treat the associated condition while treating inflammation if it exists to successfully quell the inflammation and treat the present condition. *Source: Front Hum NeuroSci 2021;11:316 Download your copy today:

As a healthcare professional, you know it is crucial for us to be concerned about inflammation levels in your bodies. Chronic inflammation is a key factor in the development and progression of various health conditions. By understanding the role of Glutathione (GSH) in reducing inflammation, you can provide effective support to your patients and promote their overall well-being. Let's dive into the science behind it! 🧪 Inflammatory cytokines, such as TNFa, IL-6, and IL-b, are key players in the inflammatory response. Glutathione helps reduce the production of these cytokines by inhibiting the production of NFKappa B, a protein that triggers cytokine production. By doing so, it helps to regulate and decrease inflammation. (Source: PubMed DOI: 10.1177/014860719902300101) In addition, there is a cyclical relationship between Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and Glutathione. When GSH levels decrease, it leads to an increase in ROS production. On the other hand, an increase in GSH levels helps reduce ROS production. This balance between ROS and GSH is crucial in regulating apoptosis (cell death) and inflammation in the body.
