Role of Traditional Plant Compounds in the Treatment of Neuropsychiatric Diseases

Abstract

Natural elements from nature along with their bioactive components are being extensively studied in recent times for their therapeutic efficacy in treating a variety of degenerative disorders. These diseases are specifically characterized by their progressive nature of dysfunction caused by gradual loss of function. Even though there is a shoot in technology and impressive breakthroughs in properly understanding neurodegenerative disorders, the progress and process in designing an efficient treatment were very few. In the process of prevention and therapy of neuropsychiatric diseases NDs. The use of natural products in the prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders are known, though many clinical issues have been emerging regarding their usage pattern, primarily based on the lack of evidence of scientific evidence and also the proof of their efficacy and patient safety. Neurodegeneration is basically a myriad of various pathological processes, hence, targeting multiple mechanisms of action and neuroprotective approaches that include cell death prevention and restoring the function of damaged neurons must be focused on.
