The immense benefits of herbal medicines are rapidly being discovered today through modern research as globalization has made more and more herbs available worldwide. Research on biomolecular effects of herbs and their antioxidant activity has gained great momentum due to the apparent links between oxidative stress, ageing, and disease. This new book is a consolidation of the latest cutting-edge research on herbal medicines and their benefits, challenges, and potential as well as consumption patterns and business and marketing opportunities. The book takes a look at the challenges and attitudes of consumers and administrators toward herbal supplements and also covers marketing and supply chain issues and outlines the economic and business opportunities for herbal supplements in various locales and nations. The volume goes on to explore interactions, dosing, and analysis, providing information on clinical trials for nutritional and herbal supplements as well as risks, toxicity, and safety concerns with regard to herbal medicines. Food safety standards and regulations for herbal supplements are also addressed. The final section emphasizes using herbal supplements for a range of health conditions, such as how the immune-boosting qualities of herbal supplements can be used to treat conditions such as low libido, boils, fever, diabetes, blood pressure, osteoporosis, herpes, insomnia, Alzheimer’s disease, and more.
