Ginger :Raw or cooked? #BlogchatterAtoZ

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on April 8, 2019 13

Ginger is very popular in my kitchen. I add it in my morning cup of green tea, in my curries and I also have ginger infusion water. Ginger tea is a childhood favorite. In green tea or milk tea, I love my ginger.

With milk tea, adding too much ginger early on can curdle the milk. But with green tea, no such problem. Raw ginger has several amazing benefits. But it can be difficult to chew it raw. Adding it to my glass infusion water bottle, helps me have my raw ginger water without trouble.

Can you grow a ginger plant?

Yes. It’s easy. The only thing you need is a piece of ginger root. Just make small nicks, on a piece of ginger tuber and plant it in a little soil. The green shoot will appear and there will be several small ginger tubers appearing below it. Harvest when the green shoots die.

Ginger powder: is it any good?

Nothing like the natural and dried powder is used if you don’t have access to the real thing.

What are the active chemicals in Ginger?

The active ingredients in ginger root are gingerols, shogaol, and paradols. Gingerol is the main bioactive compound in ginger. It has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Benefits of ginger

Antioxidant and anticancer effect

Ginger and some of its components are effective antioxidants in vitro. Due to the antioxidant property, it is considered to exert an anticancer effect. It has potential action in colon cancer. In humans in vivo action needs further research.

The cognitive improvement and neuroprotective effects occur due to the antioxidant effect.

Even dried ginger may have beneficial effects in treating dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease (Ghayur, Gilani, Ahmed, Khalid, Nawaz, Agbedahunsi, Choudhary, Houghton 2008). But this effect in Alzheimer’s disease is not conclusive.

Better digestion and prevents nausea

Several research data show that active ingredients of ginger accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract. But the exact mechanism of action is still not clear.

Ginger also reduces cholesterol and improve lipid metabolism. This makes its role in the prevention of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases significant.

A survey of a group of obstetricians and gynecologists: Most recommend taking an antiemetic (71.3%), and specifically ginger (51.8%), to patients with moderate to severe nausea (Power, Holzman, and Schulkin 2001).

Ginger has been recommended to combat nausea associated with chemotherapy.

Gingerol in ginger helps maintain orodental health by its antibacterial activity.

Ginger is used in many illnesses, such as colds, nausea, arthritis, migraines, and hypertension since ages.

Even when we see the safety profile of ginger, there is an incomplete understanding of the mechanism of action. Thus you need caution while trying any therapeutic uses. But including ginger in your diet will only enhance the taste. Do you include ginger in your diet?

What’s in a Carrot? #BlogchatterAtoZ

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on April 3, 2019 5

Carrot, cilantro, cabbage, cauliflower , coriander, veggies starting with C are many. My new book will be covering most of them. But today I will discuss Carrots. Those lovely orange veggies which rabbits love and I do too! If I was to choose between sweet or savory the gajar ka halwa wins any day. But carrot sticks and dips are a delicious healthy snack which even children love.

Carrot Nutrition secrets

Carrots are a good source of carbohydrates and dietary fibres and minerals like Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Sodium, potassium, Copper, Zinc, Thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin C. It also contains Carotenoids,(5.33 mg/100 g) beta carotene and lutein and phenolic acids.

Carrot calories:126 kJ/100 g

Carrot benefits you must know?

The many micronutrients and bioactive compounds make carrots a functional food with several health-promoting properties.

Carotenoids enhance your immunity They decreased the risk of degenerative diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, age-related macular degeneration, and cataract formation. Carotenoids show promise as a potential inhibitor of Alzheimer’s disease (Zaman et al. 1992).

Phenolics or polyphenols have antioxidant, antimutagenic and antitumor activities. Polyacetylenes one of the bioactive components could be useful in the development of new therapies for Leukemia

Phenolics in carrots are present throughout the roots but are highly concentrated in the periderm tissue (Mercier et al. 1994). The carrot peel accounts for only 11% of the amount of the fresh carrot weight, it could provide 54.1% of the number of total phenolics.

Both carrot powder and grits are a good source of crude protein, crude fiber, iron, calcium, β-carotene and dietary fiber (Singh and Kulshrestha 2008). β-carotene content of dehydrated carrots shows that the shreds lost most β-carotene. This is followed by powder and chops during three months of storage (Suman and Kumari 2002).

Drinking carrot juice lowers systolic pressure but did not diastolic pressure. Drinking carrot juice increased the plasma total antioxidant capacity. Carrot juice and its blends are among one of the most popular non-alcoholic beverages in Germany.

Processing of carrots into products like canned slices, juice, concentrate, pickle, preserve, cake, and halwa are ways to include carrot in your diet throughout the year. Carrot pomace containing about 50% of the carotenoids.

Best ways to include carrot in your diet

Cook it with a little butter/oil for best absorption. Sweet or savory either way carrots are amazing

Vege sandwich with carrots, carrot cakes, pancakes, Carrot halwa Ghee and khoya are a must for the right taste. The one in Dilli haat Rajasthan stall is outstanding.

For a healthy snack try, carrot sticks with a dip.

Salad with carrots.

Add it to fried rice, pulao, khichdi, noodles, soups mixed veg, chicken stir fries, veg soups or chicken soups that taste amazing, Idli, poha, daal, fritters, anything, and everything can have carrots.

Apollo Hospital Proton Therapy : Only centre in SouthEast Asia

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on April 3, 2019 25

Radiation therapy is a common mode of treatment for all major malignancies. Sometimes it’s the only mode of treatment and sometimes it’s given before surgery or after surgery.

Whenever you give External beam radiation therapy, Photons are used as energy molecules to kill the cancer cells. One main problem, with such a powerful mode of therapy, is, also its power. The photons are so powerful, that they not only kill the cancer cells, their energy also injuries surrounding normal tissues. This is the reason, side effects occur after life-saving radiotherapy and are also its limitations. But proton therapy can be a solution to this problem.

Is proton therapy available in India?

Previously Sout East Asia had no dedicated centre for Proton Beam therapy. Also, the cost of treatment abroad was exorbitant. This is where South East Asia’s only Proton therapy Cancer centre brings us hope. Apollo Proton Cancer Centre is a ray of sunshine for people in India. A previously unavailable treatment option is now possible in India. The Apollo Proton Cancer Centre houses state of the art technology, superior infrastructure and excellent research facility, spread across a vast 4 acres in Chennai.

But before you understand, why this is a big deal, you need to know what is proton therapy.

What is Proton therapy?

Proton therapy is an advanced type of radiation therapy where protons are the energy molecules used for treatment. The unique nature of these heavy subatomic particles(protons), make them rapidly lose energy after reaching the target.

PROTON beam therapy (Image credit proton.apollohospitals.com)

How does Proton beam Radiation therapy work?

Proton beam radiation therapy (PBRT), uses the unique physical properties of protons ( Bragg Peak). The heavier subatomic particles can deliver their energy more precisely to the tumor, with less scattering to surrounding tissues. At the end of its path, maximum energy is dissipated and negligible radiation passes on further.

Is proton therapy better than traditional radiation?

What does this mean?

This means that while cancer cells are killed, the damage to surrounding tissue is much less, unlike in traditional radiotherapy. Even with higher doses of radiation, the effect on normal tissue is much less which lowers the immediate and long term side effects.

What kind of malignancy is Proton treatment useful for?

Pediatric cases
Head neck cancer: It is used both for primary treatment and adjuvant therapy for Head neck cancer
Skull-base tumors
Brain
Lung
Breast
Liver
Prostate
It is recently showing promise in nasopharynx, oropharynx, nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses, periorbital tumors, skin, and salivary gland, or to reirradiation.
Other cancers: like rectal, pancreatic, esophageal, lung breast cancer, prostate.
For patients with Hodgkin’s and non-Hodgkin lymphoma PBT has scope for consolidation therapy after chemotherapy.

Why Apollo Proton Cancer Centre is a boon?

Proton therapy finally available in India
Groundbreaking treatment option for cancer
Better quality of life after treatment
More precise

Beetroot ,juice, powder:Benefits and worries #BlogchatterAtoZ

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on April 2, 2019 28

Beetroot, juice, powder, capsules you can’t ignore the numerous benefits of this little red vegetable. If you check the many e-commerce portals you will be surprised by the number of nutriceuticals selling this goodness in little capsules. But no one can beat the real deal, that’s the vegetable, fresh from the farm to your kitchen approximately!
Red beetroot is finding its name among famous veggie peers when it comes to health benefits. It is a root veggie and scientifically known as beta vulgaris rubra.
It’s not only health promoting but also a disease preventing functional food. My fondest memory of beetroot is a delicious veggie side dish my mom used to cook in winters. Your childhood food memories go a long way in building adult habits and health.

What does Beetroot have?

It’s a source of nitrogen and is a good way of increasing nitric oxide production inside the body. Nitric oxide helps relax the endothelial muscle and helps in hypertension control.
Beetroot’s effect on the vasculature is largely attributed to its high inorganic nitrate content (250 mg∙kg−1 of fresh weight).

Hypertension
Atherosclerosis
Type 2 Diabetes
Dementia

There is high bioavailability of beetroot’s inorganic dietary nitrate is well established. Some reports suggest almost full absorption following digestion.

Oral antibacterial treatment
Antibacterial mouthwashes reduce beneficial bacteria in the oral cavity and gut . This lowers production if the beneficial nitric oxide

Betalain pigments: This has potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and chemo-preventive activity in vitro and in vivo.But the bioavailability of the pigment inside the human body is limited as seen from several studies. Further studies are needed in this field.

100 gram of beetroot has the following nutrients(source)

Calories: 43
Water: 88%
Protein: 1.6 grams
Carbs: 9.6 grams
Sugar: 6.8 grams
Fiber: 2.8 grams
Fat: 0.2 grams

Micronutrients in Beetroot

Beetroot is a rich source of phytochemicals like ascorbic acid, carotenoids, phenolic acids, magnesium, potassium, iron, and flavonoids.

Beetroot juice
A number of studies report that beetroot, in the form of a juice supplement, protects against oxidative damage to DNA, lipid and protein structures in vitro.22 other varieties of fruits and veggie juices including carrot, tomato, orange, and pineapple were also tested. Only Pomegranate juice showed antioxidant activity(measured by FRAM) more than beetroot
Store bought juices may have undesirable amounts of sugar and this should be kept in mind while drinking them especially for those who are diabetic. Excessive sugar should always be avoided.

Supplementation with beetroot juice diminishes muscular fatigue associated with high-intensity exercise.
Beetroot capsules are also available to provide the benefit of beetroot all year around.

How to cook beetroot?

In a stir fry with potatoes, peas and seasonal veggies. It’s best to peel and boil beetroot and other veggies before you stir fry them.

You can pressure cook in a double boiler system, inside a pressure cooker. MethodIn a bowl take cubed potatoes, beetroot, julienned ginger, salt, black pepper and butter in a tightly covered steel tiffin box. Place it in the pressure cooker with water just up to half the height of the tiffin box(the tiffin box should not be floating) Then pressure cook. (Recipe credit mom)

Pancake with beetroot: Peel, mash beetroot and use it in your pancake batter. Don’t forget to add orange juice or lemon juice to balance the flavors. It gives a lovely reddish pink hue to the pancakes.
As a salad, mixed veggie fritter or as a part of your chicken stew, beet will be a powerful addition to any diet. Eat it as a savory or a sweet dish , beet will not disappoint!

Precaution with beetroot

Due to its high nitrate content and ability to produce nitric oxide, the safety profile for medicinal use of beetroot in pregnancy and breastfeeding is not known.
Kidney disease: Eating too many beets might make kidney disease worse. Since beetroot contains oxalates, there’s a risk of kidney stones with excessive beetroot supplementation.

If you take beet capsules you must know this

The right dose of beet will need to be checked against factors like age, body weight, kidney, and liver function. There is insufficient data about the dose range for beet. Just because it’s natural, it’s not necessarily safe! Dosages are always important and always consult your doctor before taking nutriceuticals with bioactive compounds.

Have you eaten beetroot? Let me know in the comments below about a favorite beetroot dish and get featured in the book of veggies coming out in May!

Asparagus:Also a medicinal plant

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on April 1, 2019 13

I first ate asparagus at the Le Dupleix in Pondicherry. Green asparagus sautéed lightly in butter. Asparagus is a touch of spring green in your summer soup bowl. Its scientific name is Asparagus officinalis and its popular name is sparrow grass. This month I will be taking you through the world of vegetables while I take part in BlogchatterAtoZ challenge and the Ultimate Blogging Challenge. This is my third time doing A to Z challenge. It’s always pain and pleasure!

Why am I writing about veggies this month?

The story is long, but the main idea came because I love eating vegetables. My mom gets all the credit for this because her cooking made veggies delicious. Unlike fruits, vegetables need to be cooked the right way to keep their nutritional value and taste.

If you want to stay healthy you need a balanced diet and veggies form an important part of it.

Questions you will get answers to this month

Which veggies are good for you?

Which are the ones which are to be avoided when you have certain diseases? What is the right way to cook certain veggies?

Are potatoes bad?

Vegetables have carbohydrates, should you skip them while going on a keto diet?

What about canned, smoked pickled vegetables? Are they any good?

How to cook veggies just right?

What kind of cookware helps you keep nutritional value best?

Plant protein sources and much more.

While I didn’t do a theme reveal for this challenge, I plan to document behind the scenes of this book throughout this month. Now A for Asparagus , what you must know!

What’s the main Edible part of Asparagus

Its young shoots are used as a spring vegetable and is popular across the world.

Nutritional goodness of Asparagus

Energy: Twenty kcal per 100gram.

Water is 93% of asparagus’ and it’s a low calorie food. It’s rich in dietary fibres and a good source of plant protein.

It contains vitamin B6, calcium, magnesium, and zinc in high amounts .It is also a source of beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, vitamin K, thiamin, riboflavin, rutin, niacin, folic acid, iron, phosphorus, potassium, copper, manganese, selenium, chromium.

The amino acid asparagine gets its name from asparagus, as the asparagus plant is relatively rich in this compound.

Cooking with Asparagus

Only the young shoots are eaten. When it starts to bud, the shoots become woody and lose their taste. Its commonly used in stir-fries, soups, veg side dishes.

Sauteed wild Asparagus — sautéed wild Asparagus By `Xufanc - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0, Link`

Young fresh asparagus shoots should be a perk, straight and firm. They are cut at an oblique angle giving them the characteristic look. You can boil them, blanch them, roast, grill or saute them. All you need is the right seasoning and you are set. Butter and olive oil goes well with this veggie. Cheese, garlic, and asparagus is another delicious combo.

Year around imports makes asparagus no more seasonal.

Where can you find them in India?

If you want to grow them in your kitchen garden seeds are also available.In India, you can order online from Bigbasket and Amazon.

Medicinal properties

Asparagus species are medicinal plants growing in the temperate Himalayas. In India, it’s different parts are used for their medicinal properties and is known as shatavari .

Their functions include

The active ingredients have antioxidants, immunostimulants, anti-inflammatory, antihepatotoxic, antibacterial, antioxytocic, and other effects on the reproductive system.

The roots of Asparagus are the main source of the drug shatawar. This crude drug is used for increasing appetite and the secretion of milk in lactating women.

Shoots contain thiophene, thiazole, aldehyde, ketone vanillin, asparagusic acid, and its methyl and ethyl esters used as flavors.

Green asparagus (Asparagus officinalis) prevents hypertension by its inhibitory effect on angiotensin-converting enzyme activity in the kidney. This effect is seen in rats and data regarding the effect on humans are awaited.

White Asparagus is grown by a special method and is a delicacy. It’s supposed to be less bitter than green ones.

Asparagus: Effect on your body

Asparagus is best had in the season when it’s available fresh. It has asparagusic acid in it. It’s broken down in the body into sulphurous compounds, which produces a typical asparagus urine smell. While everyone does produce this typically smelly pee, there occurs a variation in the ability to smell it. Genetic differences in the olfactory receptors make the ability to smell this different for people. What this means for your kidney function is not clear.

Mission Shakti :What I liked

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on March 30, 2019 0

I liked playing one game of cards.That’s bluff.I lost inevitably.That’s one reason why I never tried poker.I am not very good at hiding what I feel.

That’s why I liked what Mission Shakti stands for.I can’t claim to grasp everything about #Mission Shakti but this is what I understood from various sources.

Things about Mission Shakti for the uninitiated (Source)

Mission Shakti is India’s anti-satellite(A-SAT) weapon initiative by DRDO and ISRO

It was launched from Odisha’s Balasore DRDO’s testing range.

Mission Shakti shot down an out of service Indian satellite.

The technology is complicated and not shared by any nation.

A low orbit satellite by unknown nation lying low and spying on India will be dealt quickly,quietly.

This technology will probably have commercial use both global and domestic.

For avoiding open warfare with enemy nations is in the card,we need good eyes in the sky,space,land,water and underground.

Even the walls listen so this high security news is mostly under wraps.Indian scientist have been researching this since 2012.

You can talk logic with people who understand about good will and humanity .What about those who are envious of everything India stands for ?Theres no way for people like that except scare them so much that they will think twice about treading on your toes.

Bargaining chips especially ones which are subtle can be great for diplomatic conversations in the present and the future.
