Research Progress of Natural Antioxidants in Neurodegenerative Diseases

Dear Colleagues,

Nutrients’ Special Issue “Research Progress of Natural Antioxidants in Neurodegenerative Diseases”, addresses the importance of antioxidant intake for brain health. Once absorbed into the blood and transported into the brain, antioxidants can help and reduce oxidative stress to brain cells. Thus, natural products including plants extracts, phytochemicals, and nutraceuticals with antioxidant potential are unique preventive and therapeutic agents for neurodegenerative disorders.

This Special Issue is open to research on the development, progression and management of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's, Huntington's, Parkinson's, ALS, epilepsy, depression, memory loss and the neuroprotective effects of antioxidants.

Natural compounds that contain antioxidant molecules have neuroprotective effects that help and protect the brain from radical damage that affects brain cells.
