Turmeric and Curcumin for Neurodegenerative Diseases (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Turmeric and Curcumin for Neurodegenerative Diseases examines protective mechanisms of turmeric products and novel nanotechnological therapeutics and biomaterial design strategies to circumvent Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's, and liver diseases. With neurodegenerative and liver diseases posing a serious threat to health care systems worldwide, this book addresses how existing nanotechnology and therapeutic strategies have not been as successful in their treatment. In addition to discussing drawbacks, possible future perspectives to overcome these challenges are also examined. Chapters also focus on therapeutic efficacy and drug delivery systems, providing readers with a full summary of research in this field in one handy reference.

• Summarizes the therapeutic efficacy of turmeric and curcumin for neurodegenerative diseases
• Includes effects on Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and liver diseases
• Focuses on different types of drug delivery systems and their challenges
• Examines novel nanotechnological therapeutics and biomaterial design strategies
