Abstract

Phenolic compounds are found in natural products like fruits, vegetables, roots and leaves of plants, or present in the form of drinks like wine and tea. It's evident from numerous studies that phenolic chemicals have neuroprotective properties and are potent for reducing stress. Furthermore, these substances include flavonoids, phenolic acids, stilbenes and strong antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. They mainly focus on the oxidative stress and non-motor symptoms of the body. Also significantly play roles in apoptosis, neurogenesis, and inflammation. Research studies showed that flavonoid like quercetin, resveratrol and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) enhanced the antioxidant properties of the body immune system and protected brain cells from oxidative damage. With that, phenolic chemicals also play crucial roles in distinct neuronal activity like preserving neuronal integrity and lessening the cellular stress. Hence, Phenolic chemicals aid in the therapeutic approach for the distinct neurodegenerative disorder.
