Avatar f tn as regards liver i have no idea, try to google oxidative stress and weed, if weed can increase oxidative stress it is definitely bad Is it as dangerous as alchohal? no, alcool can be much more dangerous than hbv itself even on those with no hbv.
17456918 tn?1460948562 never, cirrhosis happens only to a small percentage after a life of active immune system/oxidative stress that damages the liver, there is hypotesis that keeping oxidative stress normal no damage will happen to the liver, the experience of hepatitis technologies is that lowering oxidative stress cirrhosis will regress even with active hbv+hcv infection, so keeping oxidative stress normal will probably allow cirrhosis to never develop even in the small minority with active immune systems also vi
Avatar f tn My TPO antibodies skyrocketed when I was hyperthyroid (a cause of oxidative stress). Selenium is an antioxidant (which improves oxidative stress) and is the subject of many studies in regards to reducing TPOAb levels. The results have been anything from 21% reduction in TPOAb to completely normalizing TPOAb levels. Smoking has been identified as a resistance factor to selenium supplementation. Not that surprising to read this since smoking is a major cause of oxidative stress.
Avatar f tn They tested the effect of dietary supplementation of olive oil and its phenolic fractions (hydrophilic or lipophilic) on oxidative stress and liver fatty acid composition of rats treated with the oxidative-stress-inducing herbicide 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). All rats given 2,4-D were reported to show signs of significant liver damage.
Avatar m tn HCV, HBV, alcohol abuse, Steatosis, and hepatotoxic pharmaceutical drugs may all create extreme Oxidative Stress and trigger the process of Fibrogenesis. That being said, the reasonable method to deal with the pathology of HCV and the metabolic changes induced in the host is to bolster the metabolic pathways that HCV alters. In other words, to try to correct those HCV-induced metabolic alterations by oral supplementation of added nutrient metabolites into the HCV-altered biosynthetic pathways.
Avatar n tn s capacity to compromise immune function and enhance oxidative stress. The role of alcohol use in HCV acquisition has been more of a mystery.
Avatar f tn I am now almost 63 and feel so weak and awful bone and muscle pain . Now I have a terrible pain and tender on left side like under rib. Could all these past illnesses come back and attack the spleen for example? I had some blood work done about 3 months ago and all looked fine. I go back to Dr. 11/30th. How can I tell them or should I ask for them to find out why I still feel this way. Are you at any liberty to suggest how to approach my Doctor?

Avatar m tn Japanese researchers found that cherry angiomas were associated with oxidative stress. Excessive oxidative stress can damage DNA and cause mutations in cells. Consuming a diet containing antioxidants to improve your immune system and avoiding pollutants and chemicals in the environment helps to prevent and combat this.
Avatar n tn Any patient treated with atypical antipsychotics should be monitored for symptoms of hyperglycemia including polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia, and weakness. Patients who develop symptoms of hyperglycemia during treatment with atypical antipsychotics should undergo fasting blood glucose testing.
Avatar n tn it all depends on your antioxidative status that protects the liver from damage, if your antiox is ok no hbvdna level or alt might be able to make damage to that stage antioxidative status or glutathione are tests not available in normal labs i wonder why it is still this way since almost all degenerative diseases come from oxidative stress and the test would be a best seller but i can imagine the reason is that supplements, good diet are the cures and there is no drug to sell for this......
Avatar f tn He has 14 abnormalities on these tests, indicating cell dysfunction, significant oxidative stress and glutathione loss. The nutritionist supplied many supplements, based on the test results, to replace his low nutrients, and to help support oxidative phosphorylation - such as CoQ10, N- Acetyl - L-Cysteine, glutathione and other specific amino acids, vitamins and minerals.
213398 tn?1202670474 One is oxidative stress that mutates DNA, promotes atherosclerosis, and leads to chronic lung injury. Oxidative stress is thought to be the general mechanism behind the aging process, contributing to the development of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and COPD. •The body produces antioxidants to help repair damaged cells. Smokers have lower levels of antioxidants in their blood than do nonsmokers.
Avatar m tn it has no such effects, a trial made in italy found it helps immune system turn hbeag to negative but the trial was very small so i dont think t has any effect really it lowers oxidative stress and helps clear fatty liver together with omega 3 fish oil.
Avatar f tn Links Curcumin protects the rat liver from CCl4-caused injury and fibrogenesis by attenuating oxidative stress and suppressing inflammation. Fu Y, Zheng S, Lin J, Ryerse J, Chen A. Department of Pathology, School of Medicine, Saint Louis University, 1402 S. Grand Blvd., St. Louis, MO 63104, USA.
Avatar m tn They contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic renal and vascular disease via a number of mechanisms, including activation of RAGE (receptor for AGEs), induction of epithelial–to-mesenchymal transition and oxidative stress. Given the known association between diabetes and fibrosis progression in several human liver diseases, we hypothesised that AGEs are injurious to the liver and may contribute to hepatic fibrosis. Methods: AGE-BSA was prepared by incubation of BSA with 0.
Avatar f tn ) The body then becomes overwhelmed by the excess of oxygenated free radicals, causing all sorts of damage. And this is all termed “oxidative stress”. Alarmingly, oxidative stress can cause the loss of one of your key and internally-natural antioxidants: glutathione. Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant produced by your own cells, and it neutralizes those free radicals/reactive oxygen species. It also works expertly with antioxidants vitamin C and E.
Avatar m tn by combating oxidative stress. Sleep-apnea sufferers are subject to continuous oxidative stress when their oxygen supply is tampered with. Sleep apnea is characterized by those fits and starts in breathing, due to your air passage being temporarily blocked repeatedly through the night. And shutting off your air passage—and the all-important oxygen supply—will wreak havoc throughout your body, including your brain.
Avatar f tn Did I cause any permanent damage to my brain? In addition, has damage caused by oxidative stress and free radicals irreversibly increased my cancer risk?
