The Impact of COVID-19 on Healthy Eating Habits
SARS-CoV-2 which is the causative agent of COVID-19 is a single-stranded RNA virus, commonly spread by respiratory droplets and human-to-human contact. The COVID-19.
Prompt Improvement of Venous Leg Ulcers by Oral Administration of Fish Compound Peptides in a Man with Liver Cirrhosis and Diabetes: A Case Report
We report a case of a 47-year-old man with venous leg ulcers coexisting with liver cirrhosis and diabetes. The patient had received standard wound care for 12 weeks, but the leg ulcers were still worsening. Oral administration of fish compound peptides was used to reduce local protein catabolism and promote granulation tissue formation.
Malnutrition Management in adults in times of Covid-19 Pandemic
Malnutrition is one of the most impactful conditions among the elderly population and affects the mortality rate among chronic conditions.

Dietary Profile and Prevalence of Hypertension in NIDDM
The study has been conducted for observing the dietary profile and prevalence of hypertension in NIDDM patients [1]. It is the study of patients out of 100 in which 50 were males and 50 females were selected to conduct the study. Hypertension (bp) is the very important risk factor for chronic disease burden in India. Studies of India have reported high prevalence of hypertension.
Green Tea Reduces Indomethacin-induced Damage in AGS Cells
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) disrupts mucosal defense through inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) and depletion of endogenous prostaglandins, thus exerts its adverse effects. Tea flavonoids; catechins and its derivatives, in particular, are known to prevent various systemic diseases like ulcer, cancer, atherosclerosis, hypertension, and diabetes that occur due to oxidative stress. Green tea is the most abundant source of catechins and its derivatives.
Quality Attributes of Black Mulberry (Morus Nigra L.) Juice Treated with Ultraviolet Radiation
After exposing the black mulberry juice to ultraviolet light with the intensity of 5, 10 and 20 kJ/m2, their quality analysis have been performed for 4 days at +4 °C and +25 °C. Within the current study the antioxidant activity, Total Phenolic Content (TPC), microbial charges and pH values of the samples have also been investigated. In the UV light exposed samples there existed no meaningful difference in the % DPPH radical scavenging activity level, a small amount of decrease has been detected in the TPC creation process.
