Plants4Health is a research group dedicated to the discovery and study of bioactive compounds from medicinal plants and other natural sources. The team explores how these phytochemicals act at the cellular level, particularly in metabolism, mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, to help prevent and treat chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, and age-related conditions.

Bringing together traditional knowledge and contemporary biomedical research, the group works from compound identification to biological validation and formulation development, with the aim of translating natural molecules into innovative therapeutic, nutraceutical and cosmetic solutions.
