The progressive neurodegenerative disease known as Alzheimer's disease (AD) is mostly linked to aging. Significant memory loss, aberrant conduct, personality changes, and a deterioration in cognitive function are the hallmarks of this debilitating illness. There is presently no cure for Alzheimer's disease, despite much study, and the effectiveness of the various treatments has been patchy. Addressing the increasing burden of Alzheimer's disease requires the development of therapeutic strategies to delay or stop the onset and course of the illness. With several molecules derived from Ayurvedic medicinal herbs presently undergoing clinical trials, this field of pharmacological development has shown great promise. The potential use of several Ayurvedic medicinal herbs and their derivatives in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease has been investigated scientifically. Numerous phytochemical studies have shown a variety of advantageous chemicals in these plants, despite the fact that the exact mechanisms of action are still mostly unknown. These substances, which have a variety of pharmacological actions, include lignans, flavonoids, tannins, polyphenols, triterpenes, sterols, and alkaloids. These actions include antioxidant, hypolipidemic, anti-inflammatory, anti-amyloidogenic, and anticholinesterase properties. The phytochemistry, ethnomedical uses, and bioactive components of a variety of plants are highlighted in this article. It highlights how one of the oldest holistic healing systems in the world, Ayurveda, may be able to find successful treatment approaches for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. The potential of Ayurvedic medicinal herbs and their constituents as innovative treatments for Alzheimer's disease is suggested by their encouraging pharmacological properties. These results provide promise for tackling the difficulties of this crippling illness.
