Neuroprotection aims to protect the brain and nervous system from damage and degeneration by preventing neuronal cell death, reducing inflammation, and enhancing synaptic plasticity. Strategies include lifestyle modifications, nutritional supplementation, and pharmacological interventions to mitigate effects of aging, neurodegenerative diseases, stroke, and traumatic brain injury.
Neuroprotection involves mechanisms and strategies to safeguard the nervous system, encompassing the brain and spinal cord, from damage and degeneration. These strategies aim to prevent neuronal cell death, reduce inflammation within the neural environment, enhance synaptic plasticity to improve communication between neurons, and support the overall health and functionality of the brain. The goal is to mitigate the adverse effects associated with age-related cognitive decline, neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, stroke-induced damage, and the consequences of traumatic brain injury. Approaches to neuroprotection range from lifestyle modifications (e.g., optimized diet, regular exercise, and engaging in cognitive training) to the use of nutritional supplementation and, in some cases, pharmacological interventions.
