Lack of Vitamin E with other anti oxidants work in synergy will likely to cause the following sickness:- Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive disease of the retina wherein the light-sensing cells in the central area of vision (the macula) stop working and eventually die. It is a disease associated with aging that gradually destroys sharp, central vision. Central vision is needed for seeing objects clearly and for common daily tasks such as reading and driving. AMD affects the macula, the part of the eye that allows you to see fine detail. AMD causes no pain. Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual impairment and blindness in the United States and the developed world among people of 65 years of age and older. It has been shown that Vitamin E alone does not attentuate the development or progression of AMD. However, studies focusing on efficacy of Vitamin E combined with other antioxidants, like zinc and Vitamin C, indicate a protective effect against the onset and progression of AMD. Alzheimer's Disease Alzheimer's disease is a wasting disease of the brain. An observational trial conducted by The Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health found that when vitamin E is taken daily in large doses (400-1000IU) in combination with vitamin C (500-1000mg) the onset of Alzheimer's was reduced between 64 and 78%. Recent studies shown that Alzheimer's disease is no longer confined to elderly people but young ones as well from the age of 40 onwards and it is possible that with amount of free radicals around us most diseases will no longer be confined to elderly people. Parkinson Disease In May 2005, The Lancet Neurology published a study suggesting that vitamin E may help protect against Parkinson's disease. Individuals with moderate to high intakes of dietary vitamin E were found to have a lower risk of Parkinson's. Beta Carotene Carotenoids are a class of natural fat-soluble pigments found primarily in plants. Carotenoids are responsible for many of the red, orange, and yellow hues of plant leaves, fruits, and flowers. The most widely studied and well-understood nutritional role for carotenoids is their provitamin A activity because the body can convert them into retinol which is an active form of vitamin A. Deficiency of vitamin A is a major cause of premature death particularly among children. Carotenoids act as biological antioxidants, protecting cells and tissues from the damaging effects of free radicals and singlet oxygen. Carotenoids particularly beta-carotene, are also believed to enhance the function of the immune system. Researchers now believe that poor communication between cells may be one of the causes of the overgrowth of cells other than the activity of free radical, a condition which eventually leads to cancer. By promoting proper communication between cells, carotenoids may play a role in cancer prevention. Lack of carotenoids is found to be associated with chronic disease, including heart disease and various cancers. Buckwheat Buckwheat contains chiro-inositol which, in research, shows to be effective in lowering the symptoms of  type II Diabetes. According to a study conducted by John Hopkins Medical Institute, subjects who consumed the greatest amount of buckwheat had the lowest blood pressures. Buckwheat contains vitamin P, which contains the flavonoid rutin. Rutin is known for its effectiveness in reducing the cholesterol count in the blood. Rutin is also known to keep capillaries and arteries strong and flexible and so is beneficial for varicose vein problems which means that it can be helpful to maintain rigid blood vessels, and also can help people who bleed or bruise easily from damage.

What are the effects of nutrients on our health ? Nutrients can have marked effect on health. In the field of nutritional study, some nutrients are essential in maintaining the proper health and function of our bodies and without such nutrients our bodies systems will go astray and become malfunction, for instance, lack of vitamin C will produce scurvy disease and lack of vitamin B1 one will likely to get beriberi. Which are the best nutrients ? The naturally occurred nutrients are the best such as those derived from the plants as they can be readily absorbed by our bodies hence the term “bioavailability” which has been used to refer that the product can be readily absorbed by our bodies as compared with synthetic ones which usually are made from chemicals or inorganic materials. It is therefore most appropriate to know what are the essential nutrients which our bodies required and some of them are as stated below. Vitaman A- Vitamin A which plays an important role in vision, bone growth and formation of bones and teeth, repair of body tissues, reproduction, cell division, and cell differentiation (in which a cell becomes part of the brain, muscle, lungs, blood, or other specialized tissue.) Vitamin A helps to regulate the immune system, which in turn helps to prevent or fight off infections by making white blood cells destroy harmful bacteria and viruses. Vitamin A also may help lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) to fight infections more effectively. Vitamin A promotes healthy surface linings of the eyes and the respiratory, urinary, and intestinal tracts. When those linings break down, it becomes easier for bacteria to enter the body and cause infection. Vitamin A also helps the skin and mucous membranes function as a barrier to bacteria and viruses. It helps to reduce the black spot due to the process of aging. Vitamin A also helps to reduce free radical and any lack of Vitamin A will affect the functionality of the skin cells which will result in lack of elasticity, dryness, roughness and dullness of the skin. Vitamin A that is found in colorful fruits and vegetables is called provitamin A carotenoid. They can be made into retinol in the body. Common provitamin A carotenoids found in foods that come from plants are beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, and beta-cryptoxanthin Among these, beta-carotene is most efficiently made into retinol. Deficiency of vitamin A may lead to night blindness, dry eyes, rough skin, impaired bone growth and susceptibility to respiratory infections. Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) Any excess of Vitamin B that is not used by our body will be discharged hence it is important that we do consume enough of Vitamin B everyday. Vitamin B1 helps to protect the nervous system and aids the function of heart, digestive system, stomach and intestine. Deficiency of Vitamin B1 will cause Beriberi which is a disease of the nervous system including weight loss, emotional disturbances, impaired sensory perception, weakness and pain in the limbs, irregular heartbeat and swelling of bodily tissues. Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin)- Deficiency of Vitamin B2 causes ariboflavinosi and the symptoms may include cracks in the lips, high sensitivity to sunlight, inflammation of the tongue, seborrheic dermatitis or pseudo-syphilis particularly affecting the scrotum or labia majora and the mouth, pharyngitis, hyperemia and edema of the pharyngeal and oral mucosa. Vitamin B2 helps to regenerate cells, assist the normal growth of skin, nails and hairs. Vitamin B2 also helps to improve vision and reduce tiredness of eyes. A German study found that previously it had been assumed that no plant contains a significant amount of vitamin B12, but the study revealed that Seabuckthorn not only contains all the vitamins B, its vitamin B12 content is as high as in liver. The clinical study shows that a lack of vitamin B12 causes skin disorders, anemia, digestive disorders, nerve damage, lack of appetite, irregular menstruation period, loss of memory, neurodegeneration and dysfunction of the mucous membranes. Vitamin E Vitamin E which is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is an antioxidant vitamin involved in the metabolism of all cells. It protects vitamin A and essential fatty acids from oxidation in the body cells and prevents breakdown of body tissues. It protects body cells against the effects of free radicals, which are potentially damaging by-products of energy metabolism. Free radicals can damage cells and may contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease and cancer. It also may protect against the development of cancers by enhancing immune function. Vitamin E can prevent the development of cancer and increase the immunity. Recent study conducted by medical and nutritional institute revealed that natural Vitamin E is more acceptable by our body than the synthetic one. Natural vitamin E exists in eight different forms or isomers, four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. All isomers have a chromanol ring, with ahydroxyl group which can donate a hydrogen atom to reduce free radicals and hydrophobic side chain which which allows for penetration into biological membranes. There is alpha, beta, gamma and delta form of both tocopherols and tocotrienols. Preliminary research has led to a widely held belief that vitamin E may help prevent or delay coronary heart disease. Researchers are fairly certain that oxidative modification of LDL cholesterol promotes blockages in coronary arteries that may lead to atherosclerosis and heart attacks. Vitamins E and other antioxidants remove wastes including peroxides, ailing and dead cells from blood thus avoiding damages to the artery walls. It is found that vitamin E may be important for prevention of neurodegeneration in humans [ aging and oxidation stress in neyurodegeneration- hiro Urano et.al]. Experiments also show that muscle lesions can be prevented with vitamin E [ Effect of Age and Dietary Fish on tocopherol status of C57BL/6Nia Mice- Simin Nikbin Meydani LIPIDS 33(11):1123-1129 (1998)] In 1960 a research institute discovered that a cell cultivate outside the body will die after undergoing about 60-70 subdivisions however if Vitamin E were to be added to it the cell will die after undergoing about 120-140 subdivisions. This means that the life expectancy is doubled ! It is therefore concluded that Vitamin E will delay the oxidation of cell which in turn will delay the process of aging. Vitamin E is the best anti-oxidant. Vitamin E helps to relieve cramp and stiffness of limbs.

What other research institutions and universities said about Seabuckthorn In China the experts noted that seabuckthorn berries are used to treat stomach problems and cardiovascular diseases, strengthen the immune system and ward off senility. Subhuti Dharmananda, Ph.D., Director, Institute for Traditional Medicine, Portland, OR had published a research paper under the name of Seabuckthorn wherein he concluded that Seabuckthorn is helpful in cancer therapy, in treating cardiovascular diseases, gastric ulcers, liver cirrhosis and Skin. A.S.Eidelnant of all-Russian Research Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants,Moscow,Russia in his seminar paper Seabuckthorn- Unique Medicinal and food plant it was, inter alia, reported that Seabuckthorn has high content of vitamins, polyphenols, isoprenoids and other biologically active compounds and these biologically active principals interact with each other to exhibit synergistic effects. The oil normalize lipid, protein and carbohydrate metabolism. He also found that Seabuckthorn oil is used in medicine in therapy of malignant tumors, in treatment of skin disorders, gynecological and gastric diseases, in normalizing the body immunity and that Seabuckthorn oil exhibits a high anti-microbial activity. He also concluded that Seabuckthorn oil are useful as antioxidant and anti-X-ray agents Aruna Agrawal* & Dr. G.P. Dubey a lecturer of the Department of Basic Principles, Faculty of Ayurveda, Institute of Medical Sciences, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi – 221 005 (India) in a paper entitled Multi-Dimentional application of Seabuckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoide) - a prevention and management strategies of age related psychosomatic deficits reported that Seabuckthorn oil was used in a clinical test and it was found that there was an improvement in clinical symptomatology and body immunity, with adaptogenic property, reduction in anxiety and depression scores including overall feeling of well being and that Seabuckthorn may be proposed as an remedial measure for the prevention and management of age related neuropsychophysiological deficits caused due to aging process. There was no any adverse effect even after its prolonged application. The Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) of India is currently set sight on Seabuckthorn to take on the harmful effects of nuclear radiation. The DRDO says that the plant found in the snowy peaks of Ladakh, is helpful in treating claims wounds, ulcers and high cholesterol and can be used for protection against ‘‘nuclear terrorism’’. Seabuckthorn was proclaimed as ‘‘wonder plant’’ or ‘‘Sanjivani Butti’’ by the research scientists of DRDO. Apart from developing edibles with the plant, experts said it has a potential of being used in as many as 200 products including medicines for treatment of memory loss, cholesterol, ulcers, cancers and as an anti-microbial to prevent drug resistance. DRDO is currently researching the potential radiation protection application of Seabuckthorn and its therapeutic value as a ‘‘Nutraceutical’’ (combination of nutrient and pharmaceutical). It was also found out that Seabuckthorn fruits and leaves are highly nutritious and have great pharmaceutical value and are a rich source of vitamin C, E, K caroteniods, flavonoids and phytosterols. Seabuckthorn is used in about two hundred industrial products including life saving drugs and herbs to treat cancer, heart ailments, ulcers, hepatic disorders, burns and brain disorders. Due to high contents of antioxidants, seabuckthorn oil is being extensively used as anti-inflammatory, anti bacterial, analgesic and for promotion of tissue regeneration Study performed by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Medical Plant Resource Development and Research Institute, Beijing, shows that Seabuckthorn Seed Oil has a 65.5% inhibition rate on gastric ulcers as compared to 55.2% for cimetidine 200mg and 0% for control group and another study performed by the Pathological & Physiological Study Group Of the Gansu Provincial Tumor Institute, China, concludes that Seabuckthorn Oil has definite anti-cancer activity. The experiment results showed the inhibiting rates of grafting tumors are all over 30% (p less than 0.05 or less than 0.01) when injected into the abdominal cavity three separate times. An article in Indian Journal of Nuclear Medicine, Vol. 19, No. 4, December, 2004, 113 entitled Studying Pharmacodynamics Using Nuclear Medicine Techniques: Evaluation of Seabuckthorn by Ravi Kashyap, Lilly Ganju, M.K.Chopra, Yogendra, Padwad of Institute of Nuclear Medicine & Allied Sciences (INMAS), Defence Institute of Physiology Allied Science (DIPAS) and Brig. S.K.Mazumdar Marg, Delhi-110054 reported that an inflammatory model of adjuvant induced arthritis in rats were created and Seabuckthorn was administered on the rats and it was concluded that Seabuckthorn extract has a significant anti-inflamatory activity which should be further evaluated to be used as an alternative approach for the treatement of arthritis. The study by the Department of Gastroenterology, Baogang Hospital, Shanghai Second Medical University, Shanghai 201900, China conducted the clinical test to find out the effect of Seabuckthorn on cirrhotic patients and the results shown that the serum levels of TNFalpha, IL-6, laminin and type IV collagen in group A who were taking orally the sea buckthorn extract, 15 g 3 times a day for 6 months were significantly higher than those in the control group. After a course of Seabuckthorn treatment, the serum levels of LN, HA, collagen types III and IV, total bile acid (TBA) decreased significantly as compared with those before and after treatment in the control group. The Seabuckthorn notably shortened the duration for normalization of amino transferases. Hence it was concluded that Seabuckthorn may be a hopeful drug for prevention and treatment of liver fibrosis. Whether it is sufficient to rely on Seabuckthorn alone as health supplement ? Though seabuckthorn has many beneficial effect to our health however by itself one cannot get the best out of it and also one will not be able to get the unexpected effect as that contained in Bio-Zen Life ! According to researchers nutrients must be taken in appropriate combination and proportion to produce the synergy effect so that the nutrients not only can be recycled but also to produce the mark effect on our health. Bio-Zen Life will unleash the unexpected result and help you to enjoy your life again as it contain not only the essential nutrients but also the right type of nutrients to produce the synergy effect, like Chinese medicine, the practitioners never prescribed a single herb but a combination of many herbs in the proportion as they deem proper, this is so in order to induce the synergy effect.
