Concerns about how eating habits affect health are growing, as is the demand for vital nutrients for leading a healthy lifestyle. Nutraceuticals are a leading trend in the food market as customers focus more on eating healthily as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic.

Products known as nutraceuticals can be used as medication in addition to being nutritional. A substance that has physiological benefits or offers protection against chronic disease may be referred to as a nutraceutical product. Nutraceuticals can be used to boost wellbeing, slow down ageing, stop chronic diseases from occurring, lengthen life expectancy, or support the body's structure or functions. Due to their potential for having nutritional, safe, and therapeutic impacts, nutraceuticals have recently attracted a lot of attention. These medicines have demonstrated promising outcomes in a variety of problems, according to recent investigations. Contrary to pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals are compounds that often do not have patent protection. While both pharmaceutical and nutraceutical substances may be used to treat or prevent diseases, only pharmaceutical substances are approved by the government.

An immune system hypersensitivity condition is an allergy. A person often experiences an allergic reaction when their immune system rejects generally benign substances. The increased activation of particular white blood cells known as mast cells and basophils by a kind of antibody known as immunoglobulin E is what makes allergic reactions different. An inflammatory response is produced as a result of this reaction, which can be uncomfortable or harmful.

Inflammation is the body's reaction to irritation or injury and is characterised by swelling, discomfort, redness, and heat. Nutraceuticals such ginger, soybean, unsaponifiable, glucosamine, chondroitin, and S-adenosylmethionine have had their effects on osteoarthritis put to the test. The variety of the trials and uneven results, despite the fact that they are safe and well tolerated, impair the results.

A special class of therapeutic agents known as medical foods or medicinal foods is taken into consideration for the nutritional treatment of a certain ailment. For instance, therapeutic meals are intended to treat cancer, hyperhomocysteinemia, pancreatic exocrine insufficiency, inflammatory disorders, and other ailments.
