Abstract:

Ageing is a natural phenomenon with associated decline of the physiological and structural changes occurring in the late human life. The Alzheimerâ??s disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease leading to memory loss. Such late age disorder is often related to the protein aggregation that ultimately leads to neuronal death. In this talk, I will discuss molecular basis of Alzheimerâ??s disease and also the neuroprotective role of food components will be discussed especially traditional Indian food like turmeric. Going back to the basics of Indian tradition can support the notion stating â??Food can become Medicineâ?? and help us prevent diseases.
