The researchers searched several databases for all published controlled trials using omega-3 fatty acids, either as a supplement or as part of a dietary intervention. The studies had to meet three criteria: (1) trials had to compare dietary or supplemental intake of omega-3 fatty acids with a control diet or placebo, (2) studies had to report the incidence of heart attacks or death among people who participated, and (3) trial participants with heart disease had to have been followed for at least six months. Eleven studies met these criteria, with a combined total of roughly 8, 000 individuals each in the treatment group and control groups. The results of the meta-analysis showed that consumption of omega-3 fatty acids through diet or nutritional supplementation significantly reduced the risk of heart disease. The risk of nonfatal heart attack, fatal heart attack, sudden death, and death from all causes in those who consumed omega-3 fatty acids was reduced by 20%, 30%, 30%, and 20%, respectively, compared with the risk in those consuming a control diet or placebo. The results seen in dietary-intervention studies were slightly more pronounced than those observed in nutritional-supplementation studies. However, only 2 of the 11 studies evaluated dietary intervention as a means of increasing omega-3 fatty acid intake, and both of those studies were small and neither well designed. It may, therefore, be premature to conclude that dietary modification is more effective than supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to heart-disease prevention by causing several chemical changes in the blood vessels (dilating blood vessels, suppressing inflammation, and controlling growth of the cells that line the inner part of the arteries). The combined effect keeps arteries wide open, so blood can flow without restriction. Although the authors do not specify an optimal daily intake, trials that tested nutritional supplements of omega-3 fatty acids used 0.3 to 6 grams of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 0.6 to 3.7 grams of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) per day. This is approximately equivalent to consuming 4 to 12 ounces of cold-water fish per day. Good dietary sources of omega-3 fatty acids include cod, salmon, mackerel, halibut, and flaxseed. The analysis suggests that regular intake of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet or in supplement form may lead to a healthier heart and a longer life. All Products Health Shop Ailments Concerns Hair Skincare Fragrances Cosmetics Health Information Search All Any Children with Sickle Cell Disease Need More B Vitamins By Matt Brignall, ND Healthnotes Newswire (April 18, 2002) Based on the results of a newly published clinical trial in the American Journal of Hematology, new recommendations have been made regarding optimal B vitamin intake for children with sickle cell disease.1. Prior research has suggested that children with sickle cell disease require supplementation with folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12.2 3 4 5 This new study is the first to try to identify the optimal intake amount for each vitamin. Researchers administered gradually increasing amounts of folic acid, vitamin B12, and vitamin B6 to 21 children with sickle cell disease. Blood samples were regularly taken to determine the lowest intake level of each vitamin that would provide the maximum lowering of homocysteine, a metabolic by-product that builds up in people with B vitamin deficiency. The optimal intake level of folic acid was found to be 700 mcg per day. Optimal amounts of vitamins B12 and B6 were three times the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA). This translates to 4.2 to 6.0 mcg per day for vitamin B12 and 4.2 to 6.0 mg per day for vitamin B6, depending on the age and sex of the child. To simplify their findings, the authors made a general recommendation for all children with sickle cell disease, regardless of age or sex. They suggest 1 mg of folic acid, 6 mcg of vitamin B12, and 6 mg of vitamin B6 per day. These levels are far below the levels that have been associated with adverse effects. (For example, nerve damage has been reported in some adults consuming 500 mg or more of vitamin B6 per day.6) Sickle cell disease, also called sickle cell anemia, is an inherited disorder characterized by defective manufacture of the oxygen-carrying protein (hemoglobin) in blood cells. It affects approximately 72, 000 people in the U.S., primarily African American children. Currently, the benefits of reducing homocysteine in children with sickle cell disease remain theoretical. The researchers suggest that by reducing homocysteine levels they will protect the cells that line blood vessels from damage. By protecting the vessels, they theorize that they could reduce the incidence of painful crisis, an extremely debilitating episode of pain that occurs commonly in people with sickle cell disease. While more research is needed to support this theory, supplementation with B vitamins appears to be a useful treatment for children with sickle cell disease.

Healthnotes Newswire: Hawthorn Extract Improves Exercise Tolerance in People with Congestive Heart Failure . All Products Health Shop Ailments Concerns Hair Skincare Fragrances Cosmetics Health Information Search All Any Hawthorn Extract Improves Exercise Tolerance in People with Congestive Heart Failure. By Darin Ingels, ND Healthnotes Newswire (July 25, 2002) An extract made from hawthorn leaves and flowers (Crataegus sp.) may help improve exercise tolerance in people with moderate congestive heart failure, according to a study in Phytomedicine (2001;8:262 66). Heart failure may be caused by many different factors, but the end result is a weakened heart that has difficulty adequately pumping blood to the rest of the body. People with heart failure often experience shortness of breath or fatigue with exertion, fast heart rate, intolerance to cold, swelling in the legs and ankles, or, in severe cases, pressure in the chest. Conventional medications include digoxin (Lanoxin, diuretics such as furosemide (Lasix or hydrochlorothiazide, and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) designed to stimulate heart contractions, reduce excess fluid accumulation, or dilate arteries to take the strain off the heart. While these medications can be effective, some have toxic side effects and must be monitored very closely. Hawthorn may be a safer substance to consider in cases of mild to moderate heart failure, as an alternative to, or in addition to, prescription medications. German scientists studied the effect of 240 mg per day of a hawthorn extract or placebo for three months in 39 people with moderate heart failure. None of these participants were taking other medications for their heart condition. In the group taking hawthorn, exercise tolerance on a stationary bicycle improved by almost 11%, but decreased by about 17% in those taking a placebo. Those taking hawthorn also reported feeling better overall, whereas no improvement in sense of well-being was noted in the placebo group. Although the results fell slightly short of being statistically significant, these findings suggest a beneficial role of hawthorn in the treatment of heart failure. This study corroborates other studies that demonstrated hawthorn improves exercise tolerance. No adverse side effects were noted in the group taking hawthorn. Other nutrients may also be helpful for treating heart failure. Studies show that 30 to 100 mg per day of coenzyme Q10 can improve heart function. The amount necessary may depend on the severity of heart failure. Taurine, like hawthorn, may also increase the strength of the heart. Studies suggest 4 to 6 grams of taurine per day may be necessary to achieve this benefit. Some doctors recommend supplementing with 500 mg of magnesium per day, although most of the research has been with injectable magnesium. L-carnitine is an amino acid that is important for energy production and has been shown to improve heart function. Some physicians recommend taking 1, 500 mg per day. Although many of these substances are available without a prescription, heart failure should always be treated under the supervision of a doctor. All Products Health Shop Ailments Concerns Hair Skincare Fragrances Cosmetics Health Information Search All Any Air Pollution Compromises Vitamin D Status By Alan R. Gaby, MD Healthnotes Newswire (September 19, 2002) Atmospheric pollution, by blocking some of the ultraviolet rays of the sun, can promote the development of vitamin D deficiency, according to a report in Archives of Disease in Childhood (2002;87:111 3). Severe vitamin D deficiency in children can cause rickets, which leads to permanent deformities of the bones. In adults, severe vitamin D deficiency results in softening of the bones (osteomalacia) and muscle weakness. A milder deficiency of the vitamin can lead to impaired balance, possibly increasing the risk of falling down. In one study, elderly individuals who received a vitamin D supplement (800 IU per day) fell down 47% less often over a one-year period than did those who received a placebo. In the new study, blood levels of vitamin D were measured in two areas of Delhi, India: one with high levels of air pollution and the other with significantly less pollution. The average vitamin D concentration was 54% lower in the former than in the latter. Forty-six percent of the children in the heavily polluted area had subnormal blood levels of vitamin D and in 12% of the children the deficiency was severe enough to cause rickets. In contrast, none of the 31 children living in the less polluted area had vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D is present in only a few foods (e.g., cod-liver oil, egg yolks, and vitamin D-fortified dairy products); most of the vitamin D in the body is produced by a chemical reaction in the skin triggered by exposure to sunlight. People who do not receive adequate amounts of sunlight are at increased risk of developing vitamin D deficiency. Factors that might promote a deficiency include staying indoors, covering one's body when outside, and having dark skin (which filters the sunlight). In addition, people who live at high latitudes receive less sunlight and therefore have a higher incidence of vitamin D deficiency, compared with those who live closer to the equator. Vitamin D deficiency is more common than most people realize, occurring in up to 40% of healthy people in some studies and in more than half of hospital patients on a general medical ward. It does not take a lot of sunlight exposure to prevent vitamin D deficiency. Experts recommend that an elderly person living in a climate with less sun exposure (such as Boston) receive 5 to 30 minutes of sunlight per day, depending on their skin sensitivity. In areas where the sun is stronger (such as Florida), even less exposure time can do the job. Adults who are unable to go out in the sun may benefit from a vitamin D supplement in the amount of 200 to 1, 000 IU per day. Long-term supplementation with more than 1, 000 IU per day should be supervised by a doctor. The Recommended Dietary Allowance of vitamin D for children is 200 IU per day.
