Nutraceuticals are oral dietary components naturally found in foods and believed to have a medical or health benefit. Dr. Stephen Defelice, who combined the words ‘‘nutrition’’ and ‘‘pharmaceutical,’’ coined the term in 1989.[1] Foods that are naturally high in nutrients, like spirulina, garlic, and soy, or particular parts of foods, such omega-3 oil from salmon, might be considered nutraceuticals. They go by other names, such as dietary supplements, nutritional supplements, and medical foods. The products that fall under this category include separated nutrients, nutritional supplements, genetically modified "designer" foods, herbal goods, and processed foods like cereals and soups. Their purported safety as well as possible nutritional and medicinal benefits have piqued curiosity.[3] One of the most crucial research topics is the function of dietary active chemicals in human nutrition, with broad ramifications for industry, regulators, consumers, and healthcare professionals (Bagchi D, 2006). Foods and nutrients are essential to the body's regular operation. They assist in preserving an individual's health and lowering their risk of contracting certain illnesses. As a result of the widespread acknowledgment of this fact, the relationship between"nutrition" and "health" was established, and the term "nutraceuticals" developeloped.
