BOSTON, Aug. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Mangos are one of the most popular fruits1 in the world, grown in more than 100 countries2 globally and consumed by an extremely diverse population. Now, two new studies funded by the National Mango Board and presented as posters during the American Society for Nutrition's Annual Conference (Nutrition 2023) show mangos may play a role in risk reductions for vascular issues while helping to improve antioxidant levels among relatively healthy adult men and women who are overweight or obese.

Key Points: 
  • Mangos are one of the most popular fruits in the world, grown in 100+ countries and consumed by a diverse population.
  • "It's likely the unique matrix of vitamins and bioactive compounds synergistically working together that resulted in our findings," says Young Hong.
  • Following the first 12 weeks, participants took a 4-week washout break then switched groups and consumed the alternate snack for another 12 weeks.
  • Findings from the second study show a significant increase of glutathione peroxidase (GPX), a powerful antioxidant enzyme.

MORRISTOWN, N.J., April 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- PLT Health Solutions, Inc is launching a novel ingredient to support immune health. Called Spectramune® Immune Defense Complex, the ingredient is a patented, synergistic combination of ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) and Haritaki (Terminalia chebula). Clinical study data looking at immune biomarkers showed significant improvements across a broad range of immune cells – targeting innate, cell-mediated and humoral immunity. These markers are linked to the first line of immune defense (innate), support for the slower immune response that the body mounts in response to unfamiliar pathogens (cell-mediated) and support for the remembered/antibody response from exposure to new pathogens and vaccinations (humoral). Spectramune is mild tasting and 70-80% water-soluble, allowing it to be used in a variety of product forms from tablets, capsules and soft gels to functional foods and beverages - and in a broad range of immune support formulations.

Key Points: 
  • New Spectramune® Immune Defense Complex is Clinically Demonstrated to Enhance Innate, Cell-Mediated and Humoral Immunity

Cranberry juice can prevent recurrent UTIs, but only for some people

You might have also heard cranberries prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Key Points: 
  • You might have also heard cranberries prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs).
  • The review didn’t look at the use of cranberry for the treatment of UTI – and cranberry juice cannot cure a UTI on its own.

Remind me, what is a UTI?

    • About one-third of women will have one at some point in their life.
    • They’re also common among elderly people and those with bladder issues caused by spinal cord injury or other conditions.
    • Typically, a UTI feels like peeing razor blades and the urine can be smelly, cloudy, and sometimes has blood in it.

What medicinal properties do cranberries have?

    • The First Peoples of North America have long known the benefits of eating cranberries, including their benefits for bladder problems.
    • Cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon) – a native fruit of North America – have a high concentration of proanthocyanidin, which protects the cranberry plant against microbes.
    • It was this apparent ability that researchers concluded was responsible for the cranberry’s medicinal properties.

The evolution of the evidence

    • The first Cochrane compilation of four clinical trials on this topic – published in 1998 – concluded the evidence was too poor to determine efficacy.
    • A Cochrane Review involves identifying of all the available peer-reviewed academic evidence on a health care or health policy topic.
    • As one of Cochrane’s most popular reviews, and the ever increasing volume of evidence, updating the review was important.

What’s new?

    • The recent increased volume of high-quality evidence has shown cranberry products work for people who experience recurrent UTI or are susceptible to UTI.
    • Recurrent UTIs are defined as two or more UTIs within six months, or three or more UTIs within a year.
    • We asked 5 experts

      What is still unclear is the formulation and dosage of cranberry products.
