Functional Foods and Biotechnology Sources of Functional Foods and Ingredients

The first of two related books that kick off the Food Biotechnology series Functional Foods and Biotechnology: Sources of Functional Foods and Ingredients focuses on the recent advances in the understanding of the role of cellular metabolic and biochemical concepts and processing that are important and relevant to improve functional foods and food ingredients targeting human health benefits. This volume explores sources of ecologically-based diversity of functional foods and food ingredients that are available to enhance diverse nutritional values and functional benefits of foods for better human health outcomes especially focusing on emerging diet and lifestyle-linked non-communicable chronic disease (NCDs) challenges. The contributors with expertise in the field of Food Biotechnology and Functional Food Ingredients have integrated the recent advances in some common as well as novel sources of functional foods and ingredients from diverse ecological and cultural origins. Further these chapters also highlight human health relevant bioactive profiles and associated functionalities of these health-promoting compounds including preventative functional roles for common NCD-linked health benefits. FEATURES: Provides ecological and metabolic rational to integrate novel functional food and functional ingredient sources in wider health-focused food system innovations. Examines the value-added role of select functional foods and food ingredients to improve NCD-linked health benefits such as type-2 diabetes cardiovascular disease and human gut improvement Includes insights on system-based solutions to advance climate resilient and health focused food diversity based on diverse biotechnological approaches to design and integrate functional food and food ingredient sources Overall the rationale of this book series is focused on Metabolic-Driven Rationale to Advance Biotechnological Approaches for Functional Foods the synopsis of which is presented as the Introduction chapter which is followed by a chapter on current understanding about regulatory guidelines for health claims of functional foods and food ingredients.
