Natural products and functional/medical foods are now widely
acknowledged as having an effect on the microbiome of the
intestine, which in turn influences the outcome of certain disease.
This book reviews the impact and effects of natural products and
functional/medical foods (nutritional programming) on disease
management, specifically focusing on diseases related to 1)
Inflammation and Immunity, 2) Cancer, COPD and Cachexia, 3) Allergy
and 4) Brain Neuro/Immune. Hippocrates said "let medicine be thy
food and food be thy medicine". While most of us are familiar with
Hippocrates famous words, we admit that in recent times, the
disciplines of pharma and nutrition have evolved separately. Today,
with the ever growing burden of diseases in modern society, we see
a convergence of the two in relation to specific disease prevention
and treatment. This re-discovered common ground between the
complementary values of pharma and nutrition can be conceptualized
in the term pharma-nutrition. Various chapters in the book review
the aspects of molecular characteristics of food ingredients
towards clinical effectiveness and relevance.
