Methods of treating damaged bile ducts by way of elevating glutathione (GSH) levels, restoring normal GSH levels, and/or maintaining normal GSH levels in the biliary ducts are disclosed. A disclosed method comprises local treatment of damaged biliary ducts, e.g., by directly delivering to the bile ducts lumen of at least one active agent that promotes increasing of GSH production or inhibiting of GSH degradation in the biliary epithelial cells.

Salt formulations, which are resistant to moisture and cooking conditions, are described herein. The formulations provide particles of micronutrients and vitamins encapsulated within heat resistant pH-sensitive water-insoluble polymers, which are packaged within a salt shell. The pH-sensitive, water-insoluble, thermally stable materials stabilize the micronutrients, particularly at high temperatures, such as during food preparation and cooking, and release the micronutrients at the desired locations such as the stomach, small intestine, etc. Preferred pH-sensitive polymers release at a low pH, less than the pH present in the stomach. The particles can be used to deliver daily-recommended doses of micronutrients simultaneously with salt, eliminating the need for vitamin pills. This is particularly important in populations suffering from severe malnutrition.

A composition including a Moringa plant component for treating, preventing, reducing the occurrence of, decreasing the symptoms associated with, and/or reducing secondary recurrences of cancer in a subject is provided. The composition may comprise a Moringa plant component in an amount of 1 mg to 1750 mg, and sulforaphane or a sulforaphane derivative in an amount of 1 mg to 50 mg. Alternatively, the composition may comprise a Moringa plant component in an amount of 150 mg to 1500 mg sulforaphane precursor in an amount of 1 mg to 50 mg. The Moringa plant component can be Moringa leaf extract containing 10 mg of moringin per 1000 mg of the Moringa leaf extract. The composition may also include at least one of a mushroom extract or powder and a broccoli extract or powder.
