Plant Bioactives as Natural Panacea Against Age-induced Diseases: Nutraceuticals and Functional Lead Compounds for Drug Development presents comprehensive information on the complications of aging and the bioactive phytochemicals that in specific herbal formulations, including beverages, can mitigate them. The book extensively describes the current information on the role of plant bioactive components in delaying or preventing the aging process and associated complications, while also covering different strategies and scientific evidence of possible synergistic effects of these studies, enabling the formulation of more effective natural drugs to intervene in aging and associated events.<\/p>\n
Extending lifespan\/healthy aging has been the greatest wish of humans since
\nevolution. In the past few decades, significant advances have been seen in
\nthe exploration of the aging process, its cellular biology, and biomarkers of
\naging, which have provided specific targets that can be leveraged for possi-
\nble aging interventions. There is no doubt that aging intervention is more
\ncomplicated than finding the cure for other diseases, since the aging process
\nis highly heterochronic. In addition, variations in theories explaining the
\naging process, the strategies being exercised for an aging cure, or\/and the
\npromotion of healthy aging are also highly diverse. However, intervening in
\naging is always the next frontier in contemporary cure and will remain to be
\nof higher importance since aging not only affects the lifestyle of the indivi-
\nduals adversely but also brings dependency on others and costly medical
\nexpenses.
\nAlthough the availability of advanced age care facilities has delayed the
\ndevelopment and progression of aging complications, still it is not feasible for
\na large group of the population due to high costs. In addition, side effects asso-
\nciated with these synthetic remedies have restricted their frequent and safe
\nuse. In such a scenario, a sustainable cure with no\/least side effects is the need
\nof the hour to combat the anticipated future burden of age-dependent
\ncomplications.
\nBioactives from plants offer remarkable features in comparison with
\ntraditional synthetic medicines which endow both advantages and chal-
\nlenges for drug discovery. Enormous scaffold diversity, structural com-
\nplexity, and higher numbers of H-bond acceptors\/donors provide higher
\nmolecular rigidity to these bioactives compared with synthetic compounds,
\nthese characteristics are valuable in drug discovery tackling protein-pro-
\ntein interactions.
\nThe present book is a comprehensive description of the antiaging poten-
\ntial of plant-derived bioactive compounds, naturally present in foods and
\nbeverages, and it provides an update on aging intervention based on natural
\ncompounds, which may be utilized in plant-based drug discovery against an
\naging and associated complications. Written by a global team of experts, this
\nbook may be an ideal resource for researchers in this area. This book has 22
\nchapters. Chapter 1 extends an expert opinion on aging principles and inter-
\nventional perspectives. Chapters 2 and 22 discuss anti-aging strategies and<\/p>\n
