This handbook covers the pathophysiology of aging from the molecular and cellular to the organ levels, as well as the current state of knowledge about the modes of action of natural products from plants on the pathophysiological pathways related to the (i) cardiovascular system and metabolism, (ii) central nervous system, (iii) kidneys, (iv) bones, (v) skin and hair, and (vi) immune system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMedicinal plants are presented alphabetically. For each plant is indicated the botanical family, synonyms, and common names in English, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. For each plant, the reader will also □find the part used, active principles, medical history, contemporary medicinal uses, as well as pharmacological, clinical, and toxicological studies. The bibliographical references have been carefully selected for their relevance. This handbook is intended for medical doctors, nurses, pharmacists, dieticians, and nutritionists, as well as readers with interest in health food and herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eAlphabetical presentation of over 100 medicinal plants and the pharmacological rationales for their uses for aging\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscusses the medical history, current medicinal uses, and potential candidates for the prevention of premature aging\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntroduces the molecular mechanism of natural products on the pathophysiology of aging\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eContains a selection of bibliographic references\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA useful research tool for postgraduates, academics, and the pharmaceutical, herbal, or nutrition industries\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHandbook of Medicinal Plants of the World for Aging: Botany, Ethnopharmacology, Natural Products, and Molecular Pathways\u003c\/em\u003e presents comment sections that invite further research and reflection on the fascinating and timely subject of herbals for healthy aging.
