This chapter is based on the first herbal monograph on Herba sideritis L., Greek Mountain Tea, recent scientific publications, and our experience. Our main aim was to summarize the accumulated knowledge about this valuable medicinal plant and focus on its adaptogenic potential in neurodegenerative disorders and aging-related cognitive decline in a simplified way to make it easy to understand for anyone, regardless of educational background. That is a challenge due to the daunting complexity of living organisms and the lack of sufficient knowledge of the laws of life. However, we made a glimpse of simplicity lurking within this complexity. This chapter is apparently for advanced readers, despite the hope that it would be apparent to anyone with a curious and thoughtful mind.
