Synopsis

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, necessitating the development of safer, more effective, and holistic therapeutic approaches. In recent years, nutraceuticals derived from natural bioactive compounds have gained considerable attention for their cardioprotective potential in naturopathic healthcare systems. However, conventional nutraceutical formulations often suffer from poor bioavailability, low stability, limited absorption, and inadequate target specificity. The integration of nanotechnology with nutraceutical science has led to the emergence of nano-cardio-nutraceuticals, an advanced therapeutic platform designed to enhance the delivery, efficacy, and therapeutic performance of natural cardiovascular agents. This book chapter explores the therapeutic applications of nano-cardio-nutraceuticals in naturopathic cardiovascular care, emphasizing their role in the prevention, management, and supportive treatment of various cardiovascular disorders including hypertension, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, hyperlipidemia, ischemic heart disease, and oxidative stress-induced cardiac dysfunctions. The chapter discusses various nanoformulation strategies such as liposomes, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, polymeric nanoparticles, nanomicelles, dendrimers, and phytosomal systems for the encapsulation and targeted delivery of cardioprotective nutraceuticals including curcumin, resveratrol, quercetin, omega-3 fatty acids, coenzyme Q10, green tea polyphenols, garlic extracts, and other herbal bioactives. Special attention is given to the mechanisms by which nanocarrier systems improve solubility, controlled release, intestinal permeability, pharmacokinetics, and tissue targeting of nutraceutical compounds. Furthermore, the chapter highlights the synergistic integration of naturopathy and nanomedicine for personalized cardiovascular therapy, reduced adverse effects, and improved patient compliance. Current challenges, regulatory considerations, toxicity concerns, and future perspectives in the clinical translation of nano-cardio-nutraceuticals are also critically discussed. Overall, nano-cardio-nutraceuticals represent a promising frontier in modern naturopathic cardiovascular management, offering innovative opportunities for preventive cardiology and advanced therapeutic interventions through the convergence of natural medicine and nanotechnology.
