Abstract: This short commentary is intended to briefly discuss the benefits of plant secondary metabolites against
brain tissue injury promoted by oxidative stress. Henceforth, the physicochemical features and biological
activities of phytocomponents were assessed based on literature reports, which showcased their
thermodynamic feasibility to reduce reactive oxygen species. It was strongly hinted that secondary
metabolites possessing antioxidant potential may be of use in the therapeutics against neurodegenerative
disorders owing to free radical scavenging, what hinders further damage to brain tissue.Keywords: Antioxidants, polyphenols, brain tissue injury, herbal, folk medicine
