crore during 20052006 to R1335.01 crore during

Bangladesh, and Pakistan are the other important
importers of herbal products from India with an

Dear students,
Herbal medicines are becoming an increasingly common form of complementary medicine, worldwide. According to
industry experts, the herbal market is growing at an annual rate of approximately 20%. The World Health Organization
estimates that the present demand for medicinal plants is approximately US$ 14 billion annually and is expected toattain US$ 5 trillion by 2050.
The growing demand could be, to a certain extent, due to increasing incidence of lifestyle disorders and inclination
toward a safer and natural system of medicine for managing these disorders. This issue of Infoline discusses about
some of the common dreadful lifestyle disorders such as obesity, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, and diabetes,
which have become the leading causes of death in the recent times. Some of the herbs effective in the management of
hyperlipidemia and obesity are highlighted in the Herbal infoline section.
I am certain that the increasing global demand for herbal medicines/products combined with ever growing recognition
of Ayurveda, worldwide, will create abundant opportunities in multiple arenas for each one of you to showcase your
knowledge and professional skill sets.
Happy reading!

GugguluLatin name:Commiphora wightii/Commiphora
mukul/Balsamodendron mukul
English name:Indian Bdellium
Commiphora wightii, a small tree or shrub
with spinescent branches, grows commonlyin northern India and is also found from
northern Africa to central Asia. The ash-
colored bark comes off in rough flakes
exposing the underbark that also peels off
in thin papery rolls. Its gum resin is used
in traditional Ayurvedic medicine to treat
inflammation, obesity, and lipid disorders.
In an experimental study, it was observed
that guggulsterone, a compound isolated from
C wightiiresin, possesses antidiabetic and
hypolipidemic activities.1Results of a review
study of clinical trials showed a significant
decrease in total and LDL cholesterol after
treatment with C wightii.2
Several other studies have demonstrated
that C wightiipossesses antioxidant and
cholesterol-lowering properties that are
beneficial against atherogenesis.3

and modulate a number of obesity regulatory
genes without affecting the mitochondrial
and nuclear proteins required for normal
biochemical and physiological functions.2This

Submucous FibrosisAn open clinical study was conducted to evaluate
the role of Oxitard capsules in the treatment of oral
submucous fibrosis. This study comprised 48 patients
with chronic oral mucosal fibrosis lesions. Oxitard
was given to all patients at a dosage of 2 capsules
twice daily for a period of 3 months. All patients
were evaluated at monthly intervals, for a period of 3
months, for parameters such as difficulty in opening
mouth, hyperkeratosis, pain, and lesion size. All
parameters were evaluated by a random score as
0nil, 1mild, 2moderate, and 3severe.
Results of the study showed that there was a
significant reduction in the degree of difficulty
in opening mouth, pain over the lesion, and
hyperkeratosis. There was mild decrease in the size
of lesion. This study indicated that Oxitard capsules
used in cases of oral submucous fibrosis showed
statistically significant improvement in symptoms
such as difficulty in opening mouth, pain in the
mouth, and hyperkeratosis. Oxitard was found to be
safe and well-tolerated at the dosage administered to
the patients.

DIABETES
!Association Between Depression
and Diabetes
Television Viewing and Risk ofLifestyle Disorders
Prolonged television (TV) viewing is the most prevalent
and pervasive sedentary behavior in industrialized
countries and has been associated with morbidity and
mortality. Results of a recent meta-analysis published in
theJournal of the American Medical Associationshowed
that prolonged TV viewing was associated with increased
risk of type 2 diabetes, CVD, and all-cause mortality.
Results showed that although the associations betweentime spent viewing TV and risk of type 2 diabetes and
CVD were linear, the risk of all-cause mortality appeared
to increase with TV viewing duration of greater than 3
hours per day. The estimated absolute risk differences
every 2 hours of TV viewing per day were 176 cases of type
2 diabetes per 100,000 individuals per year, 38 cases of
fatal CVD per 100,000 individuals per year, and 104 deaths
for all-cause mortality per 100,000 individuals per year.
Source:JAMA. 2011;305(23):2448-2455.
Diabetes appears to be associated with the
risk of depression and vice versa, suggesting
the relationship between the two worksin both directions, according to a report
published in the recent issue ofArchives of
Internal Medicine.
Approximately, 23.5 million adults in the
United Statesmore than 10%have
diabetes, including 23% of those aged 60
years and older. Major depressive disorder
affects about 14.8 million adults in the
United States every year. The study states
that although it has been hypothesized
that the diabetesdepression relation is
bidirectional, few studies have addressed this
hypothesis in a prospective setting.
An Pan and colleagues assessed the
relationship between the two disorders
among 65,381 women aged 50 to 75 years
in 1996. Participants completed an initial
questionnaire about their medical history
and health practices and then follow-up
questionnaires every 2 years through 2006.
During the 10-year follow-up, 2844 women
were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and
7415 developed depression. Women with
depression were about 17% more likely to
develop diabetes after controlling for other
risk factors, such as physical activity and
body mass index (BMI). Those who were
taking antidepressants had a 25% higher risk
of developing diabetes than those who did
not have depression.
After controlling for other risk factors for
mood disorders, women with diabetes were
29% more likely to develop depression.
Women who took insulin for diabetes hada further increased risk53% higher than
women without diabetes.
These findings add to the growing evidence
that depression and diabetes are closely
related to each other, and this reciprocal
association also depends on the severity or
treatment of each condition. Authors noted
that all the associations
were independent of
sociodemographic, diet, andlifestyle factors.
The results indicate that
lifestyle factors such as
physical activity and BMI
may partially mediate the association between
depression and new cases of diabetes, but since
the association remained significant after adjusting
for these factors, depression may have an effect
on risk for diabetes beyond weight and inactivity.
In addition, the findings reinforce the idea that
diabetes is related to stress. A diagnosis of diabetes
may lead to the symptoms of depression for the
following reasons: Depression may result from the
biochemical changes directly caused by diabetes
or its treatment, or from the stresses and strains
associated with living with diabetes and its often
debilitating consequences.
Depression and diabetes are highly prevalent in the
middle-aged and elderly population, particularly
in women. Thus, proper lifestyle interventions
including adequate weight management and regular
physical activity are recommended to lower the risk
of both conditions.Extracted from: www.jamamedia.org
