Bhopal- A team of scientists at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Bhopal have in a review identified the biomolecular relationships between Covid-19, ageing, and diabetes. The review, published in the journal Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, presented that existing drugs used to treat diabetes, obesity and ageing can potentially be used to treat Covid-19. Similar naturally existing biomolecules were also explored in combination for the Covid treatment. "There are classes of compounds such as polyphenols found in plant-based food, curcumin (found in turmeric), and resveratrol (found in grapes), have been shown to not only slow down the ageing process, but also possess anti-viral properties," said Dr. Amjad Husain, Principal Scientist, and CEO of Innovation and Incubation Center for Entrepreneurship (IICE), IISER Bhopal, in a statement. Some other polyphenols that the researchers have identified as being useful for both Covid-19 treatment and comorbidity conditions such as diabetes and ageing may include catechins (present in green tea, cocoa and berries), procyanidins (found in apples, cinnamon and grape skin), and theaflavin (found in black tea). The researchers also present evidence of some existing potential anti-ageing drugs such as Rapamycin that can be explored for the Covid-19 treatment because of the common biochemical pathways associated with these diseases. Another such example is a drug Metformin , which is usually used to control blood sugar. The review showed that at the molecular level, there are intersecting pathways that are common to diabetes, ageing, and Covid-19. All three conditions are associated with oxidative stress and lowering of the immune response and complications arising from them lead to the onset of numerous other diseases such as cardiovascular disorders, eye diseases, neuropathy (nerve diseases), and nephropathy (kidney problems). The researchers believe that an ideal therapeutic candidate for Covid-19 should be able to target the pathways that are common to diabetes, ageing and the SARS-CoV-2 infection. Further, computational studies showed that lipids present in cell membranes play an important role in coronavirus infectivity. Natural compounds such as polyphenols may affect the binding of the virus to host receptors and the molecular interactions required for virus replication and release, thereby stopping the infection in its early stages, the team explained.

अगर आप हरे-भरे इलाकों में रहते हैं तो आपको हृदय का रोग विकसित होने की संभावनाएं कम होती हैं। एक नए अध्ययन में यह बात सामने आई है। ईएससी कांग्रेस 2021 में प्रस्तुत किए गए निष्कर्षों से संकेत मिलता है कि पूरे अध्ययन के दौरान उच्च हरे भरे वाले ब्लॉकों के निवासियों में कम हरे भरे वाले ब्लॉकों की तुलना में किसी भी नई कार्डियोवैस्कुलर स्थितियों को विकसित करने की 16 प्रतिशत कम संभावनाएं थीं। यूनिवर्सिटी ऑफ मियामी, अमेरिका के विलियम ऐटकेन ने कहा, "जब कोई क्षेत्र उच्च हरापन बनाए रखता है और जब हरापन बढ़ता है, तो समय के साथ हरेपन के उच्च स्तर हृदय की स्थिति और स्ट्रोक की कम दरों से जुड़े होते हैं।" एटकेन ने कहा, "यह उल्लेखनीय था कि ये संबंध केवल पांच वर्षों में दिखाई दिए, पॉजिटिव पर्यावरणीय प्रभाव के लिए अपेक्षाकृत कम समय में।" अध्ययन के लिए, टीम में 65 वर्ष और उससे अधिक आयु के 2,43,558 यूएस मेडिकेयर लाभार्थी शामिल थे जो 2011 से 2016 तक मियामी के एक ही क्षेत्र में रहते थे। पांच साल के अध्ययन के दौरान दिल का दौरा, आलिंद फिब्रिलेशन, दिल की विफलता, इस्केमिक हृदय रोग, उच्च रक्तचाप और स्ट्रोक / क्षणिक इस्केमिक हमले सहित नई हृदय स्थितियों की घटनाओं को प्राप्त करने के लिए मेडिकेयर रिकॉर्ड का उपयोग किया गया था। पृथ्वी की सतह से परावर्तित दृश्य और निकट-अवरक्त (अदृश्य) सूर्य के प्रकाश की मात्रा का आकलन करने के लिए उपग्रह छवियों का उपयोग किया गया था। पौधों से क्लोरोफिल आमतौर पर ²श्य प्रकाश को अवशोषित करता है और निकट-अवरक्त प्रकाश को दर्शाता है, इसलिए दोनों को मापने से वनस्पति की मात्रा का संकेत मिलता है। शहर के ब्लॉकों की हरियाली को तब निम्न, मध्यम या उच्च के रूप में वर्गीकृत किया गया था। प्रतिभागियों को इस आधार पर वर्गीकृत किया गया था कि वे 2011 में निम्न, मध्यम या उच्च हरियाली वाले ब्लॉकों में रहते थे। 2016 में उन्हीं निवासियों और उनके ब्लॉक की हरियाली के लिए प्रक्रिया को दोहराया गया था। टीम ने ब्लॉक-स्तरीय हरेपन के आधार पर किसी भी नए हृदय रोग के विकास की बाधाओं और नई हृदय स्थितियों की संख्या का विश्लेषण किया। फॉलो-अप के दौरान कार्डियोवैस्कुलर स्थिति विकसित करने वाले प्रतिभागियों में, उच्च हरियाली वाले क्षेत्रों में कम हरेपन वाले ब्लॉकों की तुलना में 4 प्रतिशत कम नई बीमारियां विकसित हुईं। (एजेंसी) यह भी पढ़े► कोविड महामारी के दौरान बच्चों का बढ़ा वजन : अध्ययन

Despite three months of scorching heat, summer is full of reasons to invest in well-being, from seasonal fruits and vegetables, long days and international and national food days to keep reminding you of your promise of good health to your mind and body. let's remember the goodness of these crunchy ol' nuts: Packs A Nutritional Punch Walnuts are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids and offer other heart-healthy fats, protein, fibre, and vitamins (including vitamin B6), among others. Munching on these on a daily basis may reduce the risk of heart disease, improve brain health, ensure a healthy gut, and help in weight management. Infact, Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI)'s Eat Right During Covid-19 guidelines mention foods with omega-3, zinc, selenium, protein and vitamin B to help maintain a healthy immune system and play a role in our body's healing and recovery. And each of these nutrients is present in walnuts. Now, while no single food can prevent or treat illness, it is important to eat a balanced diet. Also, Read► Eating walnut linked to healthy life in women Easy To Incorporate In Meals Munching on a handful of walnuts isn't the only way to reap the health benefits of this nutritious food. They are incredibly delicious and crunchy, and boast great potential on the cooking front because of their ability to absorb flavours and work equally well in both sweet and savoury dishes. To add some much-needed excitement to your daily meals, you can pair these with a variety of food groups, including fruits and veggies, dairy, and breads and cereals, to name a few. Toss it into your salad, cake, or ice cream, blend it with fruits and veggies for your morning smoothie or grind it into a paste to use in dips or gravy, or simply make a trail mix -- there are so many creative ways to work them into your diet. Easy To Store Contrary to popular belief, walnuts can easily remain fresh at home provided you store them away from moisture, light, and warmth. Shelled or unshelled, put the walnuts into a resealable bag or an airtight container and place it in the refrigerator or freezer based on the period of use. If you're going to use them within a month, keep them in the refrigerator or move them to the freezer. Making everyday healthy is not an easy task, but with walnuts in your daily meals, you may get a few steps closer. Read More► Why opt for walnuts
