It has always been of in-terest to discover natural flavonoid structures, since living things, including humans, are routinely exposed to these compounds through many dietaries. So far, numerous studies have been conduct-ed on flavonoids with diverse biological actions. The activity results obtained, particularly regard-ing the effects of flavonoids on various validated and non-validated targets of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), make these compounds promising agents either to be directly employed in clinical trials or to be utilized as important scaffolds for flavonoid-based drug design studies. Although there are many review articles on the treatment and protective effects of flavonoids on AD, within this re-view, the effects of flavonoids on mitochondrial dysfunction developing throughout AD have been presented concomitant to their structural organization.
