- Constipation. L’effet laxatif des pruneaux et du jus de pruneau est bien connu et bien documenté.
- Cancer. Une étude réalisée chez l’animal a démontré que la consommation de pruneaux permettait d’augmenter la capacité antioxydante de l’organisme et de diminuer certains facteurs de risque du cancer du côlon17. Une autre étude a mis en évidence que des composés contenus dans les prunes pourraient réduire la croissance et la différenciation des cellules cancéreuses du côlon humain26. Il a également été démontré in vitro que des extraits de prunes pouvaient contribuer à diminuer la viabilité18 et inhiber la prolifération19 de différentes cellules cancéreuses. Des études cliniques chez l’humain devront cependant être menées pour confirmer ces effets.
- Ostéoporose. Quelques études ont démontré que la consommation de pruneaux prévenait la diminution de la densité osseuse chez l’animal20,21,27,28. La consommation de pruneaux pourrait aussi exercer des effets bénéfiques sur la santé osseuse de femmes en ménopause22. Des doses d’environ 12 pruneaux (100 g) par jour durant 3 mois augmentaient certains marqueurs sanguins indiquant une formation osseuse accrue.
- Lipides sanguins. La consommation quotidienne de prunes diminuerait le « mauvais » cholestérol (LDL) chez des hommes aux prises avec de l’hypercholestérolémie16. Une étude a par ailleurs démontré que l’administration de jus de pruneau concentré à des rats résistants à l’insuline (un état qui prédispose au diabète) contribuait à prévenir l’augmentation du cholestérol sanguin15.
- Maladies cardiovasculaires. Une étude menée chez la souris a démontré une diminution du risque d’athérosclérose à la suite de la consommation régulière de poudre de pruneaux29. Ces résultats renforcent ainsi l’idée que la consommation de fruits, plus particulièrement de pruneaux, pourrait s’avérer bénéfique pour réduire le risque de maladies cardiovasculaires et d’accidents vasculaires cérébraux.
- Anxiété. Des études effectuées chez l’animal rapportent qu’un polyphénol présent dans la prune (l’acide chlorogénique) et reconnu pour son pouvoir antioxydant pourrait exercer des effets anxiolytiques. Cependant, des études chez l’humain devront d’abord être menées avant de porter des conclusions à ce sujet30.
A big thank you for your post.Much thanks again.
I really enjoy the article post.Thanks Again. Want more.
Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

I’ll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.
Thanks a lot for the post.Really thank you! Keep writing.
Hey, thanks for the article post. Awesome.

wow, awesome blog post.Thanks Again.
Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
I will equipment this evaluate in direction of 2 patterns of Those: present-day Zune householders who are considering an update, and us residents seeking to make your mind up involving a Zune and an iPod. (There are other avid gamers significance contemplating out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives yourself ample details toward produce an conscious decision of the Zune vs avid gamers other than the iPod line as nicely.)
Might your bushes or shrubs use some skilled consideration?
If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
