Insights on therapeutic approaches of natural anti-Alzheimer's agents in the management of Alzheimer's disease: A future perspective.

In the current scenario, Alzheimer's disease is a complex, challenging, and arduous health issue, and its prevalence, together with comorbidities, is accelerating around the universe. Alzheimer's disease is becoming a primary concern that significantly impacts an individual's status in life. The traditional treatment of Alzheimer's disease includes some synthetic drugs, which have numerous dangerous side effects, a high risk of recurrence, lower bioavailability, and limited treatment. Hence, the current article is a detailed study and review of all known information on plant-derived compounds as natural anti-Alzheimer's agents, including their biological sources, active phytochemical ingredients, and a possible mode of action. With the help of a scientific data search engine, including the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI/PubMed), Science Direct, and Google Scholar, analysis from 2001 to 2024 has been completed. This article also described clinical studies on phytoconstituents used to treat Alzheimer's disease. Plant-derived compounds offer promising alternatives to synthetic drugs in treating Alzheimer's disease, with the potential for improving cognitive function and slowing down the progression of the disease. Further research and clinical trials are needed to fully explore their therapeutic potential and develop effective strategies for managing this complex condition.
