Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The goal of this Special Issue, “Impact of Plant Extracts and Natural Substances in Oxidation, Inflammation and Diabetes”, is to focus on the importance of plant extracts and natural substances in civilization diseases. Plant extracts and natural substances contain a wide range of nutrient substances that can be used to treat chronic as well as infectious diseases. The focus of this Special Issue is on both the extraction and isolation of plant extracts and the characterization of active substances of a natural origin.
Specifically, the aim of this issue is to clarify whether plant extracts and natural substances can influence free radicals and inflammatory mediators, as well as their interaction, favoring human health and preventing diseases.
This new information will provide health care professionals with widespread, clear and updated evidence on natural products in medical care.
