“A thorough compilation painstakingly put together by editors Dr. Rishabha Malviya and Dr. Kamla Pathak. This book provides an important source of understanding about an expanse of prospective remedies in which neurological illnesses pose more complicated obstacles to human health and well-being. . . . Brings readers through the complex world of flavonoids. The introductory chapters of the book explore the underlying chemistry, sources, and biological functions of flavonoids. The subsequent subsequent explores sophisticated extraction methods, categorization, and possible health advantages. As the book progresses, it delves deep into neurological illnesses, revealing how flavonoids may be crucial in the fight against neurodegenerative diseases.”
