Abstract
Nutraceuticals as health-promoting agents have been receiving greater consideration from both the scientific community and the public in recent years. They are obtained from diverse resources, having a broad range of favorable impacts on biological systems. Incorporating nutraceuticals into food products is an easy way to develop a wide range of functional foods that can help consumers meet their health and wellness needs. The efficacy of nutraceuticals, on the other hand, is dependent on their bioavailability. Due to the robust public concern about plastic wastes, the production of biobased polymers is gaining more significance in the research industry. Biobased nutraceuticals are produced from sustainable natural resources that are extracted as a part of biomaterials or are formed by bioprocessing. This chapter focuses on biobased nutraceutical products, precisely on the status of nutraceuticals, the classification, functions, and properties of individual categories of nutraceuticals, the designing and formulation of delivery systems for nutraceutical products, and the evaluation of the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of nutraceutical products, and provides a glimpse on the recent patents granted on nutraceuticals.
