Indeed, the human body follows an incessant regeneration. However, in times of illness, regenerative processes are hindered by degenerative processes. This is where medicine comes in to restore the normal state of the body through the ingestion of nutrients, vitamins and other essentials for the body.
However, if modern medicine uses drugs to accomplish this, natural methods like simple eating can be safer and even more effective. We have collected a series of remarkable studies on the subject ...
1. Regeneration of the nerves:
There is actually a wide range of natural compounds with regenerative effects on the nerves. For example, a 2010 study published in Rejuvenation Research, found that a combination of bilberry, green tea and carnosine could have neuritogenic effects, that is, promote neuronal regeneration.
Other neurogenic substances sought include: curcumin, lion's mane mushroom, apigenin (compound in vegetables such as celery), blueberry, ginseng, red sage, resveratrol, royal jelly, theanine and ashwaganda.
2. Regeneration of the liver:
Glycyrrhizin, a compound found in licorice, considered a potent anti-virus agent, also stimulates regeneration of liver mass and function in the animal model of hepatectomy. Other regenerative liver substances include Carvacrol (a volatile compound in oregano), curcumin, Korean ginseng and Vitamin E.
3. Beta-cellular regeneration:
The following compounds have been experimentally demonstrated to regenerate insulin-producing beta cells, destroyed with insulin-dependent diabetes, and which, once restored, can restore the patient's health.
These include Gymenna Sylvestre ("the sugar destroyer"), Nigella Sativa ("black cumin"), Vitamin D, Curcumin (turmeric with spices), Arginine, Avocado, Berberine (found in bitter herbs such as Goldenseal and Barberry) and Bette (yes, green leafy vegetables).
4. Regeneration of heart cells:
Not so long ago, it was believed that heart tissue was unable to
regenerate. New research shows that this is not entirely accurate. There is a class of regenerative compounds of cardiac tissue known as neocardiogenic substances.
Neocardiogenic substances are able to stimulate the formation of cardiac progenitor cells that can differentiate into healthy heart tissue. They include Resveratrol, Siberian Ginseng (Eleuthero), Red Wine Extract, Geum Japonicum, N-acetyl-cysteine.
5. Hormone regeneration:
There are secretagogues, which increase the capacity of the endocrine glands to secrete more hormones, and there are substances that really regenerate hormones that have degraded (emitting electrons) into potentially carcinogenic "transient hormone" metabolites.
One of these substances is vitamin C. Powerful electron donor, this vitamin has the ability to contribute to the electrons to resuscitate the form and function of estradiol (estrogen, E2), progesterone, testosterone, by example.
As well as foods that are able to support the function of the glands, such as the ovaries, vitamin C can be an excellent supplement or alternative to hormone replacement therapy.
