2022 Nutrients Bee Pollen: Clinical Trials and Patent Applications Algethami JS, El-Wahed AAA, Elashal MH, Ahmed HR, Elshafiey EH, Omar EM, et al.
Review Article
The methodology employed involved a detailed review of clinical trials and patents related to the use of bee pollen. The researchers critically analyzed cases where bee pollen has been applied, particularly focusing on its use in treating allergies, prostate illnesses, cancer, and skin issues. Insights were also gained from the various patents and health recipes that utilize bee pollen to treat chronic health problems.
In discussion of the results, it was found that bee pollen stands out for its multiple health benefits. Its impressive nutritional profile makes it a strong agent against diseases like diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular conditions. Furthermore, the research indicated that bee pollen could be effectively utilized as a supplementary food given its nutrient richness. It was also observed that bee pollen holds a significant potential for usage in cosmetic applications, posing it as a natural and cost-effective choice for skincare and beauty industry.

2022 Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology Avocado Consumption Increased Skin Elasticity and Firmness in Women ‐ A Pilot Study Henning SM, Guzman JB, Thames G, Yang J, Tseng CH, Heber D, et al.
Clinical Study Avocado Skin Care
Thirty-nine healthy overweight women ranging from 27 to 73 years of age, with skin types classified as Fitzpatrick II-IV, were involved in an 8-week study. They were grouped into two: one group ate an avocado daily while the other maintained their usual diet. The assumption was to examine if the daily intake of avocado could alleviate skin aging. Clinical assessments, specifically concerning facial skin characteristics such as firmness, pigmentation, and hydration, were done using a testing tool, called a cutometer, at specific points on the face (forehead and under the eye). The minimal erythema dose was also determined using a standard systematic approach at the inner arm.
In analyzing the results, it was observed that skin firmness and elasticity, specifically on the forehead, improved significantly for those who consumed an avocado daily over the 8-week trial period when compared to their state at the beginning. No noticeable changes were recorded in skin hydration, pigmentation, or resistance to UVB radiation amongst the women in the avocado group relative to the control group. That being said, over time, variations in skin conditions such as melanin, sebum, and erythema were observed in both groups.
These results indicate that a certain concentration of snow fungus polysaccharides can effectively alleviate skin damage caused by UVA, and they may be used as an effective component of cosmetics.
2021 Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology Tremella fuciformis polysaccharides inhibit UVA-induced photodamage of human dermal fibroblast cells by activating up-regulating Nrf2/Keap1 pathways Fu H, You S, Zhao D, An Q, Zhang J, Wang C, et al.
Systematic Review
Tremella fuciformis polysaccharides (TFPS) pretreatment can reduce the oxidative stress of UVA-treated human dermal fibroblasts cells. After TFPS pretreatment, the content of ROS and MDA in the cell decreased significantly and the total antioxidant activity was increased. Among them, the active of CAT, SOD, and GSH-Px in the cells increased significantly. TFPS can also protect fibroblasts by up-regulating Nrf2 and down-regulating Keap1 expression. Finally, it was also found that TFPS pretreatment increased the content of collagen I, elastin, and hyaluronic acid (HA) in skin fibroblasts treated with UVA.

Review Article Antimicrobial Antioxidant Peppermint
The study assembled and examined various research papers concerning the drying methods of peppermint. The focus was on how different drying methods affect the drying time, rate and enhancement of quality in terms of color and physical properties. As peppermint is a highly perishable and seasonal plant, efficient drying is important to extend its shelf life, decrease packaging and transportation costs, and generally ensure its availability all year round.
In the analysis of the results, the health benefits of peppermint were reviewed in depth, highlighting its anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal properties, among others. Other beneficial advantages such as its anti-asthmatic, allopathic, spasmolytic, anti-headache, anti-septic, and radioactive properties were also in the spotlight, implying the enormous potential of peppermint in not just the food and cosmetic industries, but the medical and biotechnological area as well. This suggests that the plant can be leveraged more for wider human prosperity.
