The concept of nutraceuticals originated from a study conducted in the UK, Germany, and France, which revealed that consumers prioritize nutrition over exercise or genetic factors in maintaining good health. In recent years, nutraceuticals, which provide health benefits and act as alternatives to conventional medicine, have gained increasing attention. The use of nutraceuticals may render traditional pharmaceuticals unnecessary or less essential, thereby reducing the risk of adverse side effects. The biochemical effects of nutraceuticals often differ from those of conventional medications. Contemporary health issues such as obesity, osteoporosis, cancer, diabetes, allergies, and dental problems are being addressed globally. Both exercise and nutrition are crucial in preventing and managing obesity, which is becoming increasingly widespread around the globe. Key components of nutraceuticals include nutrients, herbs, and dietary supplements, making them vital for maintaining health, combating various diseases, and improving quality of life. It is widely recognized that food products can be utilized for disease prevention and treatment. Most pharmaceutical compounds used in current formulations were originally derived from their natural forms.
