Inflammatory diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, and other degenerative diseases are all primarily brought on by oxidative damage disorders, also known as oxidative stress. This article seeks to provide an overview of the therapeutic potential of Gallic acid as a nanocarrier for disorders caused by oxidative damage. Gallic acid has also been found to have anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, and significant antioxidant properties. Because of its slow absorption and low bioavailability, the usage of Gallic acid is constrained. The use of nanoformulation can help to remedy this. Nanotechnology has made it possible to deliver medications to the target site quickly and effectively. The medicinal efficacy of naturally occurring potential natural plant compounds has been hampered by poor water solubility and bioavailability.Nanocarriers have been used in recent studies to try to diagnose these issues because they are a logical method. They are created for controlled release at the target place in addition to safeguarding the medication from the internal environment and degradation after administration. Nanotechnology can be employed as a promising new method of medicine delivery to decrease the negative effects of natural substances.
