Phytochemicals, natural bioactive compounds found in plants, have shown potential in managing and preventing chronic diseases through their modulation of cellular signaling pathways. This paper reviews the roles of phytochemicals in combating chronic conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. We synthesize findings from recent studies on various phytochemicals, including polyphenols, flavonoids, and saponins, highlighting their mechanisms of action, potential health benefits, and implications for clinical use.
