Abstract

Age-related ailments are on the rise as people live longer. Worldwide, there is an increasing need for dementia drugs, however the current medications do not meet those needs. Natural compounds, used in ancient medicine for their advantages and tolerance, have recently attracted scientific study. This analysis examines ginger's anti- and anti-vascular dementia (Zingiber officinale) properties, two of the most common and devastating dementias. Clinical trials on Alzheimer's and Vascular Dementia models have indicated therapeutic advantages from ginger compounds. This research reveals that ginger's components may help treat and prevent the disease. Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disorder that primarily affects the elderly and causes cognitive failure. Various cellular problems such as amyloid-beta buildup, hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, neurotransmitter imbalance, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and inflammatory reactions cause this disease. New Alzheimer's medicines should be able to tackle additional ailments, such as side effects and pharmacokinetic difficulties. Phytochemicals are powerful anti-disease agents that are widely used in humans. In vitro trials are included after eligibility screening. The most frequent interventive processes are oxidative stress and apoptosis. A recent study links Alzheimer's pathology with signalling pathways. In vivo studies and clinical trials assist clarify cognitive test results.
