Elucidating the promising role of traditional Chinese medicine in neuroprotection against oxidative stress encompassing Alzheimer's disease.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has shown potential in managing Alzheimer's disease (AD) by breaking the vicious cycle of oxidative stress and neurodegeneration. The active constituents of various herbs in TCM have a long history in managing oxidative stress and have highlighted therapeutic potential. Chinese herbs provide a multiple-target approach, which can target multiple pathways involved in AD, and untangle the issues in the current therapy regimen of AD. This review suggests that TCM is a promising candidate for breaking the vicious cycle of oxidative stress in AD therapy.
