Natural Products

There is a growing trend in the use of natural products in medical applications. Natural products are compounds derived from natural sources, such as plants, animals, or microorganisms, and they have been used for centuries in traditional medicine. Natural products have a wide range of therapeutic properties and have been used to treat a variety of ailments, including infections, inflammation, pain, and cancer. In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in natural products for drug discovery and development, as they have the potential to provide novel drug scaffolds and mechanisms of action.

Advances in natural product extraction, isolation, and structural elucidation have also facilitated the discovery of new bioactive compounds. Additionally, natural products are often considered safer and more sustainable than synthetic drugs since they are biodegradable and do not accumulate in the environment.
