This review aims to highlight the current evidence on the potential role of natural products in alleviating these exercise-induced responses and supporting exercise performance and recovery. Methods: The available preclinical and clinical literature was comprehensively reviewed to evaluate the effects of natural products on exercise performance and recovery. Evidence was categorized according to five major mechanisms: attenuation of muscle fatigue, enhancement of muscular endurance, improvement of muscular strength and neuromuscular function, modulation of inflammation and other physiological benefits. Results: Approximately 164 natural products have been investigated for their potential to improve exercise performance and recovery by targeting fatigue-related markers, improving energy metabolism, and regulating oxidative stress. Conclusions: These findings underscore the potential of natural products as promising agents as complementary strategies for addressing exercise-induced fatigue and improving recovery. Although current findings indicate biological plausibility and therapeutic potential of natural products, further clinical evidence is required before definitive performance related recommendations can be established. Future well-designed clinical trials are essential to establish efficacy, safety and translational applicability.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu18152450","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,27]],"date-time":"2026-07-27T14:08:14Z","timestamp":1785161294000},"page":"2450","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Enhancing Exercise Performance with Natural Products: A Comprehensive Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-7916-5743","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amama","family":"Rani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, College of Korean Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Department of Microbiology, Quaid-i-Azam University, Islamabad 45320, Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sojin","family":"Kang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, College of Korean Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sojin","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sports Medicine and Science, Graduate School of Physical Education, Kyung Hee University, Yongin-si 17104, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4909-1348","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jung-Hyun","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion Medicine, Kyung Hee University Hospital at Gangdong, Seoul 05278, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jimin","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sports Medicine and Science, Graduate School of Physical Education, Kyung Hee University, Yongin-si 17104, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5280-7736","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad Alaa","family":"Eldeen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, College of Korean Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Cell Biology, Histology and Genetics Division, Zoology Department, Faculty of Science, Zagazig University, Zagazig 44519, Egypt"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-7807-5620","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eunbin","family":"Ko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Korean Medicine, Graduate School, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-0768-4623","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chanju","family":"Im","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Korean Medicine, Graduate School, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9276-3894","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Moon Nyeo","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, College of Korean Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yunju","family":"Jeong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3356-2355","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Byung-Kwan","family":"Seo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion Medicine, Kyung Hee University Hospital at Gangdong, Seoul 05278, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3465-8965","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hyun Chul","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Sports Coaching, College of Physical Education, Kyung Hee University, Yongin-si 17104, Republic of Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8678-156X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bonglee","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, College of Korean Medicine, Kyung Hee University, Seoul 02447, Republic of Korea"},{"name":"Dr. B Lab Co., Ltd.
