Abstract:
This review offers a thorough examination of stress and the therapeutic use of herbal medicine. Recognizing the ubiquity of stress in modern life, this review discusses the biological mechanisms of stress, especially at the molecular level, where the presence of phenylpropanoid derivatives has a major regulatory effect. Plant-derived compounds, especially phenylpropanoids, tetracyclic triterpenoids, and lignans, are discussed for their potential use in stress management. Recent clinical trial data confirm the efficacy of these plant-derived compounds in the management of stress symptoms, such as the reduction of anxiety, improvement in mood stability, modulation of cortisol levels, improvement in sleep patterns, and enhancement of mental well-being. Of particular interest is the use of adaptogenic herbs such as Withania somnifera (ashwagandha), which has shown consistent efficacy in enhancing stress resilience and improving quality of life. This review seeks to inform researchers and practitioners of the growing importance of herbal medicine in the management of stress-related health issues.
