Nutraceuticals in dermal diseases
2021
Abstract Nutraceuticals are considered as a safe alternative to allopathic medicine and therefore are widely used for wound healing as well as part of antiaging cosmetics. In this chapter, we describe the anatomy and physiology of skin followed by the current understanding of the wound healing process. Finally, we describe some well-known nutraceuticals that have shown wound healing potential and antiaging properties on the skin. As skin nutraceuticals are an upcoming market, knowledge about phytoconstituents, their mechanisms of action, and therapeutic uses are essential.
