Phenolic acids extracted from leaves improved cardiac function and reduced complications of diabetes-induced cardiomyopathy in rats, suggesting potential therapeutic effects against diabetes-related heart problems.
Study compares efficacy of essential oils (EOs) for treating anxiety, aiming to clarify discrepancies in previous research. Researchers analyze results of multiple RCTs to provide insights into potential benefits of EOs.
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.
