Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In recent decades, pharmaceuticals based on phytocomplexes have garnered interest from health professionals as an alternative to conventional drugs. Recent research has focused on the optimization of herbal medicines and nutritional supplements. Current studies employing new methods of analysis are disclosing new information about the composition of phytocomplexes, which is essential for improving their therapeutic effect, reducing their side effects, and increasing their safety. This Special Issue of Plants aims to present the most recent results of research on plant extracts and their biological activities.
