Sugar is one of the purest foods made, from natural sources, and has never been known to contain any toxic or harmful components. Intensive investigations by the U.S. Food and Dmg Administration resulted in a book in 1986 on the health and safety factors of sugar (cane and beet) in the diet (18). The conclusion was that sugar has no deleterious effect on health in regard to heart disease, diabetes, or other metaboHc disorder. 

Ascorbic acid also forms soluble chelate complexes with iron (142—145). It seems ascorbic acid has no effect on high iron levels found in people with iron overload (146). It is well known, in fact, that ascorbic acid in the presence of iron can exhibit either prooxidant or antioxidant effects, depending on the concentration used (147). The combination of citric acid and ascorbic acid may enhance the iron load in aging populations. Iron overload may be the most important common etiologic factor in the development of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, arthritis, and possibly other disorders. The synergistic combination of citric acid and ascorbic acid needs further study, particularly because the iron overload produced may be correctable (147). 

Insulin is a peptide hormone, secreted by the pancreas, that regulates glucose metabolism in the body. Insufficient production of insulin or failure of insulin to stimulate target sites in liver, muscle, and adipose tissue leads to the serious metabolic disorder known as diabetes mellitus. Diabetes afflicts millions of people worldwide. Diabetic individuals typically exhibit high levels of glucose in the blood, but insulin injection therapy allows diabetic individuals to maintain normal levels of blood glucose. 

Selective AR agonists are undergoing clinical trials for cardiac arrhythmias and pain (Ai) cardiac imaging and inflammation (A2a) colon cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and dry eye (A3). Selective AR antagonists are either in or advancing toward clinical trials for kidney disorders (Ax) Parkinson s disease (A2a) diabetes and asthma (A2B) cancer and glaucoma (A3). 

Type 2 diabetes is a heterogeneous and progressive endocrine disorder associated with insulin resistance (impaired insulin action) and defective function of the insulin-secreting (3-cells in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. These endocrine disorders give rise to widespread metabolic disturbances epitomised by hyperglycaemia. The present classes of antidiabetic agents other than insulin act to either increase insulin secretion, improve insulin action, slow the rate of intestinal... 

In central diabetes insipidus a hypophysial malfunction, caused by different diseases as well as head injuries, neurosurgery, or genetic disorders, leads to AVP hyposecretion. This type of diabetes insipidus can successfully be treated by the exogenous administration of AVP or AVP analogues (e.g. desmopressin). 

Obese people are predisposed to diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The term diabesity (sometimes referred to as syndrome X or metabolic syndrome ) reflects the intricate association between these disorders. 

Disorders of lipoprotein metabolism involve perturbations which cause elevation of triglycerides and/or cholesterol, reduction of HDL-C, or alteration of properties of lipoproteins, such as their size or composition. These perturbations can be genetic (primary) or occur as a result of other diseases, conditions, or drugs (secondary). Some of the most important secondary disorders include hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus, renal disease, and alcohol use. Hypothyroidism causes elevated LDL-C levels due primarily to downregulation of the LDL receptor. Insulin-resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus result in impaired capacity to catabolize chylomicrons and VLDL, as well as excess hepatic triglyceride and VLDL production. Chronic kidney disease, including but not limited to end-stage... 

In nephrogenic diabetes insipidus the kidney s ability to respond to AVP is impaired by different causes, such as drugs (e.g. lithium), chronic disorders (e.g. sickle cell disease, kidney failure) or inherited genetic disorders (X-linked or autosomal NDI). This type of diabetes insipidus can not be treated by exogenous administration of AVP or AVP analogues. Instead, diuretics (hydrochlorothiazide combined or not with amiloride) and NSAI (indomethacin) are administrated to ameliorate polyuria. 

TNF is a pleiotropic cytokine exerting a wide range of cellular responses, that affect biological processes such as lipid metabolism, coagulation, and insulin resistance and the function of endothelial cells. As a major proinflammatory cytokine TNF is also involved in progression of diseases like cancer, Alzheimer, Diabetes type II, cardiovascular, pulmonary or neurological disorders, and many autoimmune diseases. Blocking the action of TNF clearly reduces its inflammatory potential on various autoimmune disorders like Crohn s disease, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and psoriasis. 

Diabetes mellitus is a complicated, chronic disorder characterized by either insufficient insulin production by the beta cells of die pancreas or by cellular resistance to insulin. Insulin insufficiency results in elevated blood glucose levels, or hyperglycemia As a result of the disease, individuals with diabetes are at greater risk for a number of disorders, including myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident (stroke), blindness, kidney disease, and lower limb amputations. 

Many individuals with type 2 diabetes are able to control the disorder with diet, exercise, and oral antidiabetic drugp. However, about 40% of those with... 

The nurse encourages the patient to talk about die disorder, express concerns, and ask questions. Allowing diese patients time to talk may help them begin to cope with their diabetes. 

The glucocorticoids are administered with caution to patients with renal or hepatic disease hypothyroidism, ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, peptic ulcer disease, inflammatory bowel disease hypertension, osteoporosis, convulsive disorders, or diabetes. The glucocorticoids... 

Geen tea Camellia sinensis Reduces cancer, lowers lipid levels, helps prevent dental caries, antimicrobial and anti oxidative effects Contains caffeine (may cause mild stimulant effects such as anxiety, nervousness, heart irregularities, restlessness, insomnia, and digestive irritation) Contains caffeine and should be avoided during pregnancy, by individuals with hypertension, anxiety, eating disorders, insomnia, diabetes, and ulcers. 

New active substances for treatment of AIDS, cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, (and from 2008) autoimmune or other immunological disorders and viral diseases. 

Thus, in diseases resulting from mutations of mtDNA, an affected mother would in theory pass the disease to all of her children but only her daughters would transmit the trait. However, in some cases, deletions in mtDNA occur during oogenesis and thus are not inherited from the mother. A number of diseases have now been shown to be due to mutations of mtDNA. These include a variety of myopathies, neurologic disorders, and some cases of diabetes mellitus. 

Another condition involving ceruloplasmin is aceru-loplasminemia. in this genetic disorder, levels of ceruloplasmin are very low and consequently its ferroxidase activity is markedly deficient. This leads to failure of release of iron from cells, and iron accumulates in certain brain cells, hepatocytes, and pancreatic islet cells. Affected individuals show severe neurologic signs and have diabetes mellitus. Use of a chelating agent or administration of plasma or ceruloplasmin concentrate may be beneficial. 

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder where glucose metabolism in the body is impaired. Type 1 diabetes is an early onset disease in which the pancreatic cells lose the function of insulin secretion either by genetic disposition or by a viral attack. Type 2 diabetes is a late onset disease developed due to insufficient insulin secretion or insulin resistance resulting in impaired glucose metabolism. 

The neuropeptide Y (NPY) belongs to a family of peptides that includes peptide YY and pancreatic polypeptide, and it is associated with several diseases such as asthma, immune system disorders, inflammatory diseases, anxiety, depression and diabetes mellitus. NPY is found in the central and peripheral nervous system, and its biological functions are mediated by interactions with five receptor sub-types, i.e. Yl, Y2, Y4, Y5 and Y6. Several studies indicate that the feeding behavior is influenced by interactions between NPY and Yl and Y5. Deswal and Roy used Cerius descriptors and genetic function approximation QSAR to investigate the structural determinants for the inhibition potency of 24 compounds with the general structure 4 for the NPY Y5 receptor [31]. The best QSAR (H = 0.720,...
