Nutrigenomics is the science that examines the response of individuals to food compounds using post-genomic and related technologies (e.g. genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabol/nomic etc.). The long-term aim of nutrigenomics is to understand how the whole body responds to real foods using an integrated approach termed 'systems biology'. The huge advantage in this approach is that the studies can examine people (i.e. populations, sub-populations - based on genes or disease - and individuals), food, life-stage and life-style without preconceived ideas.

Diet is not all about loosing or gaining weight, its therapeutic benefits are often taken lightly by most of us. Planning of a therapeutic diet implies the ability to adopt the principal of normal nutrition to the various regimens for adequacy, correctness, economy and palatability. It requires recognition of the need for dietary supplements such as vitamin and mineral concentrates when the nature of the diet itself imposes severe restrictions, the patient's appetite is poor or absorption and utilization are impaired so that the diet cannot meet the needs of optimum nutrition.
There are several therapeutic benefits of a well balanced diet such as:
•Fuel to perform daily activities
•Nutrients for the body's cells
•Growth and repair of tissue
•Reinforcing the immune system
•Preventing chronic diseases of lifestyle
•Maintaining good mental health
•Ensuring healthy teeth and bones

Periodontal Disease Indices and Colorectal Cancer Risk in Greek Adults: A Cas...asclepiuspdfs
Introduction: The previous researches have recorded positive associations between periodontal disease (PD) and risk of cancer at various locations. The aim of the present case–control study was to investigate the possible associations between PD indices and the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) development in a sample of Greek outpatients referred to a medical and dental private practice. Materials and Methods: A total of 342 individuals were interviewed and underwent an oral clinical examination, and 85 of them were suffered from CRC at various anatomic locations. The evaluation of the possible associations between CRC and PD indices was performed using a regression analysis model. Results: Clinical attachment loss (CAL) (P = 0.042, odds ratio [OR] = 1.78, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.02–3.11) was significantly associated with the risk of developing CRC. CRC family history (P = 0.002, OR = 2.33, 95% CI = 1.35–4.03) and smoking (P = 0.019, OR = 1.96, 95% CI = 1.12–3.45) were also significantly associated with the mentioned risk, whereas smoking was found to be nota confounder regarding the estimated association between moderate/severe CAL with the risk of developing CRC. Conclusion: CAL as an index for PD severity was statistically significantly associated with the risk of developing CRC.
Cancer chemoprevention with dietary phytochemicalsdegarden
Young-Joon Surh
Chemoprevention refers to the use of agents to inhibit, reverse or retard tumorigenesis.
Numerous phytochemicals derived from edible plants have been reported to interfere with a
specific stage of the carcinogenic process. Many mechanisms have been shown to account
for the anticarcinogenic actions of dietary constituents, but attention has recently been
focused on intracellular-signalling cascades as common molecular targets for various
chemopreventive phytochemicals.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

the role of diet & supplements in cancer
1. Role of nutrition in preventing
cancer
By : Somayyeh Nasiripour,Pham.D
Assistant professor of clinical
pharmacy at IUMS
2. • Doll and Peto showed that 75% to 80% of all cancers diagnosed in
the United States in 1970 might have been prevented by altering
lifestyle factors, such as smoking and diet
• estimate that diet could account for approximately 30% of cancer
deaths, similar to the number accounted for by smoking
• Asians have a 25-fold lower incidence of prostate cancer and a 10-
fold lower incidence of breast cancer than inhabitants of Western
countries do, but that rates of these cancers dramatically increase
following migration to the West.
• The importance of lifestyle factors in the development of cancer
was also shown in studies of monozygotic twins (who share all
genes).
• Inherited genetic factors were shown to be responsible for only
about 15% of all cancer cases
3. • Many epidemiologic studies have consistently
linked abundant consumption of foods of
plant origin, such as fruit, vegetables, whole
grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, and tea, with
decreased risk of developing various of
cancers

6. • Phytochemicals derived from the diet
interfere with tumour progression by acting
directly on tumour cells as well as by
modifying the tumour’s microenvironment
7. Direct inhibitory actions on tumour cells.
• Several chemopreventive elicit their anticancer
effects by modulating the enzymatic systems
responsible for neutralizing these carcinogens,.
• For example, isothiocyanates, compounds
found in abundance in cruciferous vegetables,
inhibit tumourigenesis by substituting the
oxygen in the isocyanate group with a sulfur

• For example, phenethyl isothiocyanate from
cruciferous vegetables, curcumin from turmeric,
and resveratrol from grapes have all been shown
to possess strong pro-apoptotic activity against
cells isolated from a variety of tumours.

8. Effects on tumour microenvironment.
•Polyphenol found in green tea, potently inhibits vascula endothelial
growth factor receptor-2, a key receptor involved in tumour
angiogenesis.
•ellagic acid,32 a phenolic acid found in high quantities in some fruit,
such as raspberries and strawberries, and delphinidin,33 an
anthocyanidin abundant in blueberries, also block vascular

the activity of another receptor found in perivascular cells, platelet-
derived growth factor receptor

11. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most commonly
diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer
death in the world
Diet has an important role in the development of colorectal
cancer.
In the past few decades, findings from extensive
epidemiologic and experimental investigation have linked
consumption of several foods and nutrients to the risk of
colorectal neoplasia.
Preventative measures, including dietary and lifestyle
modifications, are therefore an attractive strategy to
reduce the global burden of CRC.
12. Diet influences through several
interacting mechanisms
direct effects on immune
responsiveness and inflammation,
indirect effects of over-nutrition
and obesity—risk factors for
colorectal cancer.
gut microbiota
13. • In 1981, Doll and Peto “guestimated” that as
many as 35% of cancer-related deaths and
90% of stomach and large bowel cancer-
related deaths could be attributed to dietary
factors6.
15. Calcium is an essential nutrient for bone and dental health.
The ability of ionized calcium to form insoluble soaps with
tumor-promoting free fatty acids and bile acids in the colonic
lumen led to the hypothesis that calcium was anti-neoplastic
Additional mechanisms include:
inhibition of cell proliferation, promotion of cell differentiation
and apoptpsis, suppression of oxidative DNA damage, and
modulation of CRC-related cell signaling pathways
16. A prospective cohort study with nearly20 years of follow-up
observed an approximately 70% lower risk of CRC comparing
the highest to the lowest quartiles of calcium intake
In contrast, the largest RCT with CRC incidence as a secondary
outcome, did not find any reduction in CRC after a mean of 7
years of supplementation with calcium and vitamin D
However, several limitations, including: high calcium intake at
baseline, poor compliance, complex factorial design, and
insufficient duration of treatment and/or follow-up
In a reanalysis, a 17% reduction of CRC incidence with calcium
supplementation was observed among WHI participants not
already taking calcium or vitamin D at randomization
17. In cohort studies, calcium intake beyond approximately 700−1000
mg/day was found to have minimal incremental effect on
lowering CRC risk and supplemental calcium did not further
benefit participants with high dietary calcium intake
Also, the association between calcium intake and colorectal
neoplasms may differ by anatomic location, with stronger
associations observed for cancers in the distal colon or rectum
The inverse association between calcium and colorectal
neoplasms may be confined to individuals with a high vitamin D
level
18. In summary, predominant evidence indicates an increased
CRC risk among individuals with calcium intake lower
than 700-1000 mg/day.
It would therefore be reasonable to encourage
individuals to increase their calcium intake to a level
above this range,
20. In 1980, Garland and colleges proposed that vitamin D
status accounted for the high mortality rate of CRC in
populations with low solar UV-B radiation exposure
studies supports an inverse association of vitamin D with
adenoma incidence
anti-inflammatory and immune regulatory effects of vitamin
D are particularly compelling and may mediate its role in
vascular, neurologic, autoimmune, and infectious diseases
21. Based on a systematic review, one study suggested that the
benefits associated with serum 25(OH)D may require at
least (30 ng/mL), with optimal levels between (36−40
ng/mL)
Because this level of sufficiency cannot typically be achieved
with currently recommended vitamin D intake of 600 and
800 IU/d for younger and older adults, respectively, some
authorities have called for an increase in recommended
vitamin D intake to ≥1000 IU/d
22. In summary , it would be reasonable to
ensure that patients obtain a sufficient
level of vitamin D to maintain a plasma
level of 25 (OH)D greater than at least 36
ng/mL
24. In the 1970s, Burkitt hypothesized that high fiber intake
protected against CRC based on observations of the low
CRC incidence among Africans who consumed a high
fiber diet
Proposed mechanisms for this hypothesis included:
reduced concentrations of intestinal carcinogens due to
increased stool mass, decreased transit time
25. Recently, a meta-analysis summarized the prospective evidence and
reported a 10% decreased risk of CRC per additional 10 g/day total
dietary fiber intake
. In the absence of data to indicate any adverse consequences
to a high fiber intake, it is reasonable to recommend individuals
consume a high-fiber diet,
27. B vitamins, including folate (vitamin B9), riboflavin (vitamin B2),
pyridoxine (vitamin B6) and cobalamin (vitamin B12), and
methionine are essential for DNA methylation, synthesis,
stability and repair.
Folate deficiency results in genomic hypomethylation and
defects in DNA synthesis, both of which can contribute to colonic
carcinogenesis
Dietary intake and circulating levels of folate have been inversely
associated with CRC especially among alcohol drinkers
28. Contrary to the antineoplastic role in healthy tissues,
folate may induce growth and progression of
preexisting neoplasms through enhanced DNA
synthesis in rapidly replicating neoplastic cell and
stimulation of inflammatory immune response
pathways
In a recent meta-analysis of 13 RCTs, neither overall
nor CRC-specific incidence was increased by daily 2.0
mg folic acid supplementation, an order of magnitude
greater than the dose typically delivered by
fortification
29. Given the potential dual role of folate in normal
tissues and neoplasms, the timing of folate
introduction may be a critical determinant of anti-
cancer benefi
Indeed, folate intake 12−16 years before diagnosis
rather than recent intake was associated with lower
CRC risk and a strong inverse association with
adenoma was observed for folate intake 4−8 years
before diagnosis in 2 large cohorts
Some RCTs have found that folic acidsupplementation
reduces adenoma recurrence only among individuals
with low baseline folate levels
31. Antioxidants, reactive oxygen species scavengers, protect cells
from oxidative stress that can initiate and promote
carcinogenesis by inducing gene mutations, DNA damage,
genome instability, cell proliferation, and inflammation
Carotenoids (e.g., beta carotene, vitamin A precursor, and
lycopene), vitamin C, and vitamin E have potent anti-oxidative
and antiinflammatory properties.
Selenium has no such action itself but is required for the anti-
oxidative activity of selenoenzymes
32. Selenium Supplementation reduced CRC incidence by 61% in
the secondary analysis of a RCT among patients with a history
of non-melanoma skin cancer (the National Prevention of
Cancer (NPC) study)
However, no such benefit was observed in the large Selenium
and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial (SELECT)
33. lower baseline selenium level among participants of the NPC
study may have contributed to the observed benefit. There is
evidence for a U-shaped relationship between selenium
status and
protection from cancer, with an optimal circulating level of
selenium within the range of 130−150 microgr/L
Selenium requirements may vary among individuals due to
genetic variation in selenoenzymes
34. In summary, although adequate antioxidant intake
may be essential for overall health,
recommending routine use of antioxidant
supplements is unlikely to prevent CRC, particularly
in populations without significant nutrient
deficiencies.
36. • High-fat diets increase the intestinal excretion of bile
acids, which can be metabolized by the gut bacteria to
cancer-promoting agents
• (NHS) indicated that high intake of total fat, specifically
animal saturated and monounsaturated fat, but not
vegetable fat, linoleic acid or cholesterol, increased
colon cancer risk.
• placebo-controlled RCT showed that omega-3 PUFA
administration of 2 g daily for 6 months decreased
polyp number, size and overall burden in patients with
familial adenomatous polyposis
• omega-6 PUFAs have pro-inflammatory effects; these
are attributed to antagonism of omega-3 PUFAs
38. • Sulfur in the diet can arise from inorganic sulfate used in
the preservation of processed foods and beverages, and
the sulfur-containing amino acids from protein, such as
methionine, cysteine, and taurine
• These sulfur compounds are metabolized to hydrogen
sulfide (H2S) by gut bacteria through reduction and
fermentation reactions
• H2S has been implicated in inflammatory disorders
associated with risk of CRC, such as ulcerative colitis, and
directly with CRC.
• Dietary sources of sulfur, such as red meat, animal protein
and wine, have also been associated with ulcerative colitis
onset and relapse
39. • Other sources of sulfur include the allyl sulfur
components from garlic and cruciferous
vegetables, such as cabbage, brussel sprouts, and
broccol
• In contrast to the inorganic sulfur and sulfur-
containing amino acids, allyl sulfur compounds
and glucosinolates possess antineoplastic effects
• multiple mechanisms including: inhibition of
carcinogen-activating enzymes, detoxification of
carcinogens, induction of apoptosis, arrest of cell
cycle progression, modulation of inflammation,
and suppression of angiogenesi
41. A recent meta-analysis indicated an
approximately 20% higher risk of CRC per
100 g/day increase in red meat and 50 g/day
increase in processed meat
The risk increases linearly with increasing
intake of red and processed meats up to
approximately 140 g/day; beyond this level,
the risk increase is less pronounced
42. mechanism
Meat is an abundant source of sulfurcontaining amino
acids, saturated fats and,
in the case of processed meat, inorganic sulfur used as a
preservative.
Heme iron in red meat can induce oxidative stres,
colonocyte proliferation and the endogenous formation
of N-nitroso compounds (NOCs), which are potent
carcinogens
High consumption of heme iron (but not other forms of
iron have all been associated with increased risk of
colorectal tumors
43. Thus, based on current evidence it would
be reasonable to recommend substitution
of poultry or fish for red and processed
meat as a strategy for CRC prevention
45. Dairy products may protect against colorectal neoplasia
because of their high content of calcium, other
micronutrients and bioactive constituent
Constituents in milk other than calcium may also contribute
to the antineoplastic activity, including conjugated linoleic
acid (CLA) that has antioxidant, antiinflammatory and
immune modulatory properties
A recent meta-analysis of 19 cohort studies indicate a
nonlinear, inverse association between milk intake and CRC
risk
no substantial change in CRC incidence below ~200 g/day
and the greatest reduction over consumption of 500-800
g/day
46. In summary, there is probable evidence that milk
consumption protects against CRC.
The potential anti-CRC effect of yogurt also
deserves further investigation.
Thus, it may be reasonable to encourage intake of
milk, and possibly yogurt, for CRC prevention.
48. • Fruits and vegetables may protect against CRC
because of high levels of several potential
anticarcinogenic compounds that we have
already discussed, including: fiber, folate,
other B vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
49. In 11 of 21 cohort studies, a weak inverse association was reported between
fruit or vegetable intake and CRC; in other studies no association was
detected
The relationship seems more evident for distal colon cancer than for other
anatomic sites
a recent meta-analysis found a significant nonlinear relationship between
fruit and vegetable intake and CRC incidence, with the greatest risk
reduction associated with increasing fruit intake up to about 100 g/day and
vegetable intake to about 100-200 g/day, with little evidence for further
reduction with higher intake
50. In summary,
considering the well-established cardiometabolic benefits of
adequate fruit andvegetable intake
it would be reasonable to recommend increasing intake among
populations with very low consumption
52. • whole grains contain bran, which are rich
sources of various substances with anticancer
properties, including fiber, antioxidants, and
phytochemicals
53. In summary, based on convincing evidence, it would be reasonable to recommend
increasing intake of whole grains to help reduce risk of CRC.
In addition, whole grain also represents a source of high-quality carbohydrate, as assessed
by a low glycemic index, due its slow digestion and absorption
, been associated with decreased fasting insulin level and improved insulin sensitivity
Given the well-established role of insulin in promoting colonic growth, whole grain may
exert its beneficial effect on colorectal carcinogenesis by lowering insulin
55. • a combination of nutrients and foods may
demonstrate stronger associations with CRC
risk compared with specific nutrients or food
type
56. the western patterns:
• high consumption of processed and red meats, refined
grains, soda and sweets,
• associated with increased CRC risk
• western dietary pattern after diagnosis may increase
the risk of cancer recurrence & mortality
• Several components of a western diet have been
associated with obesity and weight gain
• Greater intake of red and processed meat related to
increased levels of inflammatory and dysregulated
metabolic biomarkers.
57. prudent pattern,
• high intakes of fruits, vegetables, fish, poultry
and whole-grain products.
• Was associated with lower risk of rectal
adenomas
58. • The Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension
(DASH) diet, originally designed for blood
pressure control, has been associated with a
lower CRC risk
