Abstract

When stress affects the body it interferes with physiological functions of the body and other normal functions such as physical and emotional behaviors of the individual and this is associated with the cause of depression, anxiety mental disorders. Here comes the cause of irrational responses of the body system. The different forms of irrational response are the symptoms for depression. Severe depression with significant effect on day to day life is considered as disability. There are so many synthetic medicines that are used to treat depressions they are playing a prominent role in this civilized world with so many adverse effects, in the other hand natural/ herbal medicines are also playing a crucial role with minimum to zero side effects.One of the main causes of depression is oxidative stress, which is a type of imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species and the anti-oxidant defensive system.
