Neuroprotective and Anti-Aging Potentials of Essential Oils from Aromatic and Medicinal Plants.

Summary

Essential oils (EOs) have been used for a long time in traditional medicine and aromatherapy to manage various diseases. Researchers worldwide have studied the neuroprotective and anti-aging potentials of EOs and their possible mechanisms of action. This review summarizes the current findings on EOs tested against neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and dementia, as well as anxiety, depression, and cognitive dysfunction. EOs have been effective on several pathological targets and improved cognitive performance in animal models and humans. Therefore, EOs may be developed as multi-potent agents against neurological disorders with better efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness.
