Main Article Content
Keywords
Abstract
This study espouses an integrative approach to nutritional therapy in neurological diseases, presenting
evidence-based strategies. Diverse sources such as nutrition science, neurology and holistic medicine,
when brought together reveals how dietary interventions might be used to prevent or treat certain
neurological conditions. In doing this, this paper seeks to examine the pros and cons of recent
nutritional interventions for neuroinflammation, oxidative stress and neuronal function. What 's more,
it also places nutritional therapy under a microscope of sorts and examines both its broadest
implications and the means by which handicapped patients can get care. The implementation of such
an approach in clinical settings demands personalized care on behalf of all practitioners involved aswell as interdisciplinary cooperation among these professionals so that optimal patient outcomes can
be assured. In conclusion this integrative framework underscores the importance of nutrition in
neurological health and should form part of comprehensive management strategies for any given
disease.
