Horizon scan of DNA-based methods for quality control and monitoring of herbal preparations

Ancuta Cristina Raclariu-Manolica et al.

Summary: Although herbal medicines and preparations are widely used in healthcare systems globally, there are concerns about their quality and safety. The introduction of new herbal products under varying regulatory frameworks, with no global consensus on their definition or characterization, creates concerns about contamination and profit-driven adulteration. Collaboration between industry, academia, and regulatory bodies is necessary to develop innovative strategies for identification and authentication of botanicals and their preparations to ensure quality control.

Nutrition in the prevention and treatment of endometriosis: A review

Neal D. Barnard et al.

Summary: Endometriosis is a condition where endometrial tissues grow outside the uterus, and it affects 1-5% of women of reproductive age in North America, Australia, and Europe. Treatment options are limited, and hormonal treatments may interfere with fertility. Surgical procedures such as laparoscopic excision or hysterectomy are used for severe cases. Nutritional interventions, such as reducing dietary fat and increasing fiber intake, may have potential benefits for individuals with endometriosis.
