Plant-based Foods and their Implications in Brain Health
18.3 NUTRACEUTICALS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF VARIOUS
NEUROLOGICAL BRAIN DISEASES
Natural substances have fewer unwanted risks. Hence, nutraceuticals in neurological brain diseases
(NDs) have indeed proven to reveal themselves as a smarter and safer holistic strategy. In most
circumstances, they must be used in conjunction with conventional medication treatment and
contemporary professional supervision of NDs to enhance the effectiveness of the existence of
the patient. Focusing on the evidence for their application as an adjunct therapy in NDs, various
15 –
17]. Nutraceuticals act through a multitude of pathways, which are categorized as follows: (1) modu-
lating neuronal signalling circuits; (2) altering mitochondrial dysfunction; (3) anti- apoptotic and
hindering caspase; (4) metal complexation; (5) inhibiting neuro- oxidative stress and antioxidants;
[18]. Figure 18.1 illustrates a graphical depiction of the pathway that is implicated in NDs and
the personalized paradigm modulated by nutraceuticals. Figure 18.2 depicts the effectiveness of
nutraceuticals on NDs.
18.4 NUTRACEUTICALS IN ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE
The highest prevalent kind of cognitive impairment is Alzheimer’s disease (AD), sometimes
-
gressive neurodegeneration of the Alzheimer’s type (PPNAT). Extremely pertinent antioxidants
are well- known nutraceuticals that are advantageous in the treatment of AD. These antioxidants
are effective in the therapy of numerous long- term ailments induced by oxidative damage, which

of natural antioxidants exacerbate mitochondrial dysfunction, which promotes the incidence and
advancement of the illness. Multiple investigations have established a linkage between consuming
more nutritional antioxidants and a lower incidence of AD, which is critical since illness prophy-
laxis is far superior to disease treatment [20]. Consuming diets abundant in trans- fatty acids (TFA),
saturated fatty acids (SFA), and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) has been proven to alleviate
the incidence of neurodegeneration, whereas trans- fat- rich diets have been shown to augment the
incidence [21]. The below- mentioned sections encompass a few of the molecules that are advan-
tageous for AD.

cascade, which is predominantly important in the survivability and functionality of neurons, has
shown to have neurological- regulatory effects [24]. Overexpression activity of antioxidant enzymes
and enzymes also alters the circulation of blood to the brain, promoting neuroplasticity and the
restoration of cognitive processes by preventing the development of neurotoxicity, which is mostly
linked to AD [25].
18.4.3 CroCin
The primary phytometabolite derived from saffron (Crocus sativus) is called crocin. Crocin is
indeed reported to augment cognition and recall due to its extended ability being hindered via
ethanol, and it is thus utilized in neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer’s. Several
investigations have proven that crocin may drastically modify the concentrations of oxidative
mediators in the hippocampal area and restore the negative impacts of long- term stress on memory
and cognition [26].
18.4.4 CarotenoidS
So far, approximately 700 distinct species of the carotenoid class have indeed been documented;
According to their molecular framework, carotenoids can be distinguished by their antioxidant
potential [27]. In- vivo and in- vitro animal models have been used to undertake a comprehensive

individuals with mild AD, those with extreme or progressive AD lack key carotenoids, including

18.5 NUTRACEUTICALS IN PARKINSON’S DISEASE
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by malfunctioning dopa-
minergic neurons in the substantia nigra portion of the mid- brain, which results in a substantial
reduction in dopamine (DA) levels. Neurodegeneration that develops in PD is triggered by a
variety of conditions, including mitochondrial dysfunction, antioxidant deprivation, and oxida-
tive damage [29]. As an outcome, a variety of pharmacological moieties are employed, each of
which acts by stimulating a different route of the same pharmacology. There is a demand for
on vitamin intake and animal and clinical trials have been undertaken, which have shown incon-
30]. To treat PD, a variety of vitamins, such
as vitamin B3, vitamin B6, vitamin B9, vitamin B12, vitamin C, vitamin D, and vitamin E, can
be administered [31]. By simply treating symptoms, the anti- Parkinson medications now in use

be used as a mono or combination prophylaxis in disease control, a wide variety of medicinal
and traditional medicines have been researched experimentally for therapy in PD, with this as
the underlying assumption [32
and mitochondrial dysfunction.
Polyphenolic compounds exhibit multifunctional properties that may effectively cross the
blood- brain barrier (BBB) and provide positive activities by alleviating neurological and postural
impairments in individuals by shielding dopaminergic neurons and restricting oxidative
stress. Lycopene is a non- provitamin A carotenoid that is lipid- soluble and found in red fruits

and vegetables, mostly tomatoes. It has been reported to possess antioxidant and neuroprotective
rodents, as well as to augment dopamine concentrations in the dorsal striatum [33]. The anti-
oxidative properties of lycopene are predominantly responsible for its restorative effects, which
also include neurocognitive shortfalls, an improvement in striatal nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
(reduced form- NADH) dehydrogenase, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) action, as well as lower
malonaldehyde levels and higher glutathione.
of mechanisms [34]. Among the most prevalent phenolic antioxidants found in Camellia sinensis,
epigallocatechin- 3 gallate (EGCG- ester of gallic acid and epigallocatechin) has demonstrated
neurocognitive properties by effectively crossing the BBB [35]. Oxidative scavenger action and
metal complexation properties of the phytometabolites are associated with the catechol ring moiety
of EGCG [36
prevented neurodegeneration and markedly restored cognitive abilities in diseased individuals [35].

Ginsenoside is effective at mitigating neurotoxicity and the impairment of dopaminergic neurons
caused by PD chemicals like 6- hydroxydopamine (OHDA) and MPTP [37, 38]. Vincamine, a medi -
cinal alkaloid derived from the vinca plant, has demonstrated anti- Parkinson’s effectiveness through

blood vessels in nerve cells, increasing the transport of glucose and nutrients to the brain and accel-
erating the production of ATP via the Krebs cycle in combination [39].

pharmacological action of various dietary nutraceuticals for addressing depression.

multiple sclerosis (MS). It is characterized by myelin degeneration and successive accumulation of
damaged tissue, and it has a devastating impact on quality of life (QoL) due to the catastrophic
physiological and neurological impairments it presents. The most prevalent indications
are stiffness, paraesthesia, double vision, numbness in the limbs, ataxia, mental abnormalities,
tiredness, and bladder dysfunction [42]. Table 18.2 outlines the various dietary nutraceuticals for
addressing MS.

treatment of depression offer therapeutic potential

Vitamin D The hypothalamus, prefrontal cortex, and substantia nigra of the brain all have receptors

18.8 NUTRACEUTICALS IN HUNGTINGTON’S DISEASE
The neurodegenerative condition Huntington’s disease (HD) is an uncommon genetic syndrome
that impairs cognition, produces gradual neurological abnormalities, and has neuropsychiatric
manifestations. Huntingtin is a protein that is expressed by the HD genome and is prevalent in innu-
merable bodily tissues, particularly the central nervous system (CNS). Demyelination, primarily
in the striatum and cortex, is a hallmark of HD. The initial indications often start in midlife and
comprise persistent motor and intellectual problems [43, 44]. There are relatively few nutraceut -
viz taurine, quercetin, curcumin,
levocarnitine, anthocyanins, and resveratrol.
18.9 NUTRACEUTICALS IN PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS
Beyond the physiological features that have been explored, nutritional supplements, i.e.,
nutraceuticals, are essential for the treatment of depressive disturbances and psychotic conditions
like bipolar disorder (extreme mood swings) and schizophrenia. They are frequently prescribed in
individuals who are in severe demand of psychotic medication as a combination therapy and occa-
sionally as a singly used [45]. By augmenting the suppressed re- uptake mechanism of monoamine
neurotransmitters and enhancing neuroprotective effects, nutraceuticals substantially expand the
