The Therapeutic Properties of Medicinal Plants
This volume provides informative research on the scientific evidence of the health benefits that can be derived from medicinal plants and how their efficacies can be improved. It is divided into three sections that cover the phytochemistry of medicinal plants, disease management with medicinal plants, and novel research techniques in medicinal plants. The pharmacological benefits of several specific plants are discussed, addressing health issues such as metabolic and mental disorders, acute mountain sickness, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and specific diseases such as Huntington’s. It also looks at the role of antioxidants in disease management. Additionally, the book covers recent problems of drug resistance and how medicinal plants can serve as antibiotic, anthelmintic, and antiparasitic drugs that will be helpful for human and animals.
Advances in Computational and Bio-Engineering
This book gathers state-of-the-art research in computational engineering and bioengineering to facilitate knowledge exchange between various scientific communities. Computational engineering (CE) is a relatively new discipline that addresses the development and application of computational models and simulations often coupled with high-performance computing to solve complex physical problems arising in engineering analysis and design in the context of natural phenomena. Bioengineering (BE) is an important aspect of computational biology, which aims to develop and use efficient algorithms, data structures, and visualization and communication tools to model biological systems. Today, engineering approaches are essential for biologists, enabling them to analyse complex physiological processes, as well as for the pharmaceutical industry to support drug discovery and development programmes.
Phytochemical and Pharmacological Investigation of the Family Rutaceae
This new volume provides comprehensive coverage of the family Rutaceae, emphasizing its diverse phytochemistry and medicinal uses. The volume provides an introduction to the family Rutaceae and then goes on to delineate its phytochemical and pharmacological properties and uses. Also addressed are the nutritional, clinical, and toxicological profiles of the family Rutaceae, elaborating on the nutritional value of Rutaceae plants, their healthcare and clinical applications, and their possible toxic side effects. This volume provides an information overview of the Rutaceae family, which comprises numerous ornamental as well as economically significant fruit-bearing trees with significant phytochemistry and medicinal uses that are important for new drug discovery for pharmaceutical industries. The chapters may also direct researchers to isolate/extract pure compounds from Family Rutaceae for new and novel drug discoveries.
Plant-Based Bioactive Compounds and Food Ingredients
This new book discusses plant-derived bioactive compounds, covering their sources, biological effects, health benefits, and potential prevention and treatment properties for multifactorial diseases. It first describes in detail how encapsulation methods and plant-based materials may be used in a variety of ways, covering the concepts, advantages, and techniques for encapsulating bioactives based on cereals, spices, and coffee. The volume also looks at the functional aspects of plant-based foods and nutraceutical-based functional food design. The role of functional foods in food safety and industrial food safety issues and techniques for monitoring food quality and safety are also addressed.
The Functional Foods
The consumption of functional foods is growing in the health and wellness communities because of their range of potent nutrients and health advantages, such as the ability to shield against illnesses, stop vitamin deficiencies, and encourage healthy growth and development. This new volume discusses the nutritional and health benefits of functional foods. The volume first looks at the functional activities of plants and their derivatives, discussing microgreens as functional foods as well as functional foods for certain populations, including those involved in sports and the elderly. The volume includes chapters on antiviral activities of functional foods for first helping to reduce the risk ...
Somebody's Darling
He finally found the love of his life… 150 years after his death. Confederate soldier Jesse Spenser died in the battle of Gettysburg in 1863, and his restless spirit has remained earthbound ever since. Usually invisible, he spends his days watching tourists visit the battlefields and fighting with his ghostly arch-nemesis, a Union soldier named Joel. There is one source of light and happiness in Jesse’s lonely existence. Lucy Westbrook. Lucy works as a waitress in a tavern in Gettysburg. Gentle and kind, she’s a vision of loveliness. Unseen, Jesse watches her work, falling more in love with each passing day. Jesse aches to make his presence known to Lucy, but she’s terrified of the ghosts that are said to haunt Gettysburg. Gathering his nerve, he finally appears to Lucy and befriends her, letting her believe he’s a Civil War reenactor. Lucy grows rather fond of Jesse, looking forward to his daily visits. Until the day she tries to touch him…
Himalayan Medicinal Plants for the Treatment of Depression
Plants are a source of bioactive compounds that act as important components in medicines. The Himalayan region especially has been found to be brimming with medicinal plants that have the potential to prevent as well as cure a number of diseases. This new book, Himalayan Medicinal Plants for the Treatment of Depression: A Source of Rich Antidepressant Agents, presents research on the importance of bioactive compounds derived from Himalayan plants, focusing specifically on their beneficial antidepressant activities. The volume discusses a wide range of Himalayan plants, vegetables, fruits, flowers, mushrooms, grains, beans, nuts, spices, beverages, roots and tubers, and even microalgae, along...
Curative and Preventive Properties of Medicinal Plants
This book provides scientific reports on the therapeutic potential of medicinal plants using animal models and provides information on the beneficial role of medicinal plants on human diseases. It looks at a number of medicinal plants and examines the medicinal properties and activities of the plants for a variety of health issues, such as for diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease, organ dysfunctions, cancer, labor and postpartum issues, and more. The therapeutic mechanisms of some phytoconstituents are also discussed.
