Introduction

Pomegranate, (Punica granatum L in Latin), belongs to the family Punicaceae which includes only one genus and two species. The tree is native from Iran to the Himalayas in northern India and has been cultivated since ancient times throughout the Mediterranean region of Asia, Africa and Europe.

Pomegranate offers abundant benefits for the cardiovascular system by preventing damage to arterial walls, promoting healthy blood pressure levels, improving blood flow to the heart, and preventing or reversing atherosclerosis.

Pomegranate may benefit people with diabetes and those at risk for the disease. It helps lower after-meal blood sugar levels and protects the cardiovascular system from diabetes-induced damage.

Pomegranate shows promise in killing prostate cancer cells, whether the cells are hormone-sensitive or not. Pomegranate also helped halt the progression of prostate cancer in men who had undergone surgery or radiation for the disease.

Pomegranate may fight the degeneration of joint tissue that leads to painful osteoarthritis, and may protect the brain against oxidative stress-induced changes that can lead to Alzheimer’s. Pomegranate extracts—alone or in combination with the herb gotu kola—help kill the bacteria that contribute to dental plaque, while helping to heal gum disease. Pomegranate also appears to protect the health of the skin and liver.

Function

1.Anti-cancer of rectum and colon, esophageal carcinoma,liver cancer,lung cancer,carcinoma of tongue and skin.

2.Restrain to human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) and many kinds of microbe and virus.

3.Anti-oxidant, coagulant, descenting blood pressure and sedation.

4.Resist to anti-oxidance, senescence inhibition and skin whitening

5.Treat kinds of symptoms caused by high blood sugar, hypertension.

6.Resist to atherosclerosis and tumour.

Application

Pomegranate P.E. can be made into capsules, troche and granule as healthy food. Besides, it has good solubility in water plus the solution transparence and brilliance color, has been widely added into the beverage as the functional content.

Ingredients
Chicken-1kg
Freshly Ground Pepper-3 Tbsp
Curry leaves- plenty of
Green chilly-3-4(slits)
Turmeric-1/4tsp
Chicken Masala-1 1/2tsp
Coconut pieces-10(opt)
Cashew nuts-10(opt)
Ginger-Garlic Paste-2tbsp
Coconut Oil-4tbsp
Big onion-3
Tomato-2-3 small
Thick Coconut milk-1/2cup(opt)
Salt-to taste

Method
 
Clean and Cut chicken  into small pieces ,wash thoroughly and keep aside.
Heat a non stick pan .
Add coconut oil and fry coconut pieces into light brown colour.
To this add curry leaves and fry.
Now add ginger-garlic paste.
Saute for few seconds.
Then add finely chopped onion ,green chilly and salt.
Saute till it become light golden in colour.
Now its time to add turmeric powder and chicken masala powder.
Saute well for 5 minutes in low flame .
Now add pepper powder and saute .
Then add  finely chopped tomato and cook for few minutes .
To this add cashew nuts ,mix well.
Finally add chicken pieces ,cover the pan and cook in medium flame .
Stir well occasionally.
Check the salt .Finally when the chicken is fully done(u can see the oil is oozing out from the gravy and the chicken is fully covered with gravy) add thick coconut milk .
Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes.
Finally sprinkle 1tbsp of coconut oil and few curry leaves .
Yummy Pepper chicken is ready to serve

Jose S. Pulido, M.D., Professor of Opthalmology & Molecular Medicine, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Alan D. Marmorstein, Ph.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine discuss the importance of genetic testing in diagnosing macular degeneration. Three cases are outlined that have been referred to as Adult Onset Foveomacular Dystrophy, Macular Degeneration, and Best Disease. Genetic testing can be used to make these diagnoses and researchers are at the threshold of new and exciting treatments. Over the past few years Dr. Marmorstein’s laboratory has been involved in a study of stem cell models of Best Disease and other retinal degenerative diseases. Details can be found on the NIH web site. DNA is being collected along with skin fibroblasts from patients with Best Disease Adult Vitelliform Dystrophy Autosomal Recessive Bestrophinopathy, autosomal dominant vitreoretinal choroidopathy, and retinitis pigmentosa due to mutations in BEST1. The skin fibroblasts are being reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells which can be differentiated into retinal pigment epithelial cells. This is the cell where Bestrophin, the product of the BEST1 gene is expressed and that’s where the pathogenic problem that results in these diseases occurs. Clinical trials are already underway using iPS cell derived retinal pigment epithelial cells for the treatment of age-related Macular Degeneration. It also allows the consideration of the same process to therapeutically treat Best Disease and Adult Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy, Autosomal Recessive Bestrophinopathy and models of the diseases can be generated of the diseases in the laboratory. This can help with the understanding of the processes that cause the disease and allow for the testing of potential therapeutic compounds to determine if they have an effect on these specific patients.
