Nutraceuticals for Alzheimer's Disease: A Promising Therapeutic Approach

This  book reviews the potential effect of diet modification, lipids, and  carbohydrate consumptions, vitamin supplementation, antioxidants, and  nutraceuticals in the prevention and management of Alzheimer's disease.  The initial chapter of the book presents the pathophysiological  mechanisms, risk factors, genetic predisposition, disease diagnosis,  pathology, and current treatment strategies against Alzheimer's disease.  It also highlights recent developments in exploring novel compounds for  the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Subsequently, it  highlights the therapeutic effect and regulation of molecular targets by  natural compounds. The book discusses the potential of natural  compounds in inhibiting the formation and deposition of Aβ peptides. It  examines the natural compounds in modulating intracellular signaling  molecules and enzymes involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's  disease. In summary, this book helps understand the role of natural  compounds as a therapeutic approach in amelioration and preventing  detrimental effects of Alzheimer's disease.
