Abstract

Overview

With increasing concerns about the effects of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) exposure through prevalent devices like mobile phones, "Medicinal plants in mitigating electromagnetic radiation-induced neuronal damage: a concise review" explores the potential health risks and protective solutions.

Findings

• The International Agency for Research on Cancer has labeled mobile phone radiation as possibly carcinogenic, underpinning the necessity for precautionary measures.
• The review emphasizes the neuroprotective attributes of certain medicinal plants that are known for their free radical scavenging, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties, including Green tea polyphenols, Ginkgo biloba, and several others.

Conclusion

This study advocates for extensive research into the neuroprotective effects of medicinal plants against EMR-induced damage, supported by traditional uses and current experimental evidence. It highlights the urgency to integrate this research within clinical trials to make informed decisions on public health guidelines regarding EMR exposure.
