Zoonotic diseases are infections that can be transmitted between people and animals. These infections are caused by microorganisms, such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi. Patients with zoonotic infections can experience severe and life-threatening illness, whilst others remain asymptomatic. For example, animals can harbor germs asymptomatically for long periods with no apparent impact on their own health. However, some microbes carried by animals can result in human illness, depending on the zoonotic disease. Furthermore, it is widely reported that almost 60% of human diseases are zoonotic, and at least 75% of the pathogens that cause diseases in humans are of zoonotic origin.

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the role of plant-based medicines, or phytomedicine, in the prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. It delves into how various phytochemicals can modulate key biological pathways involved in diseases like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and other neurodegenerative conditions. The chapters highlight the importance of phytopharmacological agents, such as polyphenols, curcumin, and resveratrol, in targeting oxidative stress, protein aggregation, and inflammation. Later, a few chapters discuss how polyphenols help protect mitochondria, and some explore curcumin's role in regulating the mTOR and autophagy pathways. This book is an excellent resource for researchers in neuroscience, pharmacology, and natural medicine, as well as practitioners seeking holistic approaches to neurological health.
