Alzheimer’s disease medications improve symptoms or slow the rate of decrease. These treatments could help people with Alzheimer›s to maximize function and maintain independence. There no treatment that cures Alzheimer’s disease or changes the disease process in the brain. With advanced stages of the disease, complications from strong loss of brain function, such as dehydration, malnutrition and infection drive to death. It found that numerous medicinal plants, which described in old literature of Arabic traditional medicine, help to cure Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and to strengthen memory.
Traditional medicinal plants played a principal role in the making of mother interest treatment of cancer and infectious diseases for the last four decades. Many natural products noted as important tools for drug development, despite advances in combinatorial chemistry. Egyptian flora is the most diverse in the world, becoming an interesting spot to prospect for new chemical leads or hits due to its species diversity. There are many programs established in Egypt as a strategy to identify potentially active substances. High methods of techniques used for the analysis of large extracts in a relatively short period and considered one of the most efficient ways to find new drives for natural products. Some of the Egyptian medicinal plants, such as Capsicum annuum, Citrus limon (L.) Burm, Daucus carota, Ficus carica, Psidium guajav and Solanum lycopersicum. will clarificate in the present review article.
