Plant-Based Natural Products for Combating Aging-Related Diseases

Plant-Based Natural Products for Combating Aging-Related Diseases explores the growing role of medicinal plants and plant-derived bioactive compounds in promoting healthy aging and managing aging-associated disorders. As life expectancy increases worldwide, chronic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, arthritis, and skin diseases continue to challenge healthcare systems.

This book highlights how plant-based therapeutics may provide safer, multi-targeted, and sustainable approaches for improving healthspan and quality of life. The book presents current advances in pharmacology, phytochemistry, molecular biology, nutrigenomics, biotechnology, and herbal medicine research. It discusses important phytochemicals such as curcumin, resveratrol, quercetin, berberine, flavonoids, and polyphenols, along with their roles in oxidative stress, inflammation, cellular senescence, and metabolic regulation.

As part of the Exploring Medicinal Plants series, this title covers topics from aging biology to functional foods, herbal formulations, nanotechnology, and disease-specific applications, serving as a valuable resource for researchers, healthcare professionals, academicians, and students interested in aging research and natural product therapeutics.
