This new volume explores the importance of phytochemicals from
plants in therapeutics, focusing on the extraction of bioactive
compounds and their applications in human health. Natural products
and their bioactive compounds are increasingly utilized in
preventive and therapeutic medication as well as for the production
of pharmaceutical supplements and, more recently, as food additives
to increase the functionality of foods. The first section of the
volume describes recent advances in the extraction of bioactive
compounds from various sources. It looks at advanced extraction
techniques such as enzyme-assisted, microwave-assisted,
ultrasound-assisted, pressurized liquid extraction, and
supercritical extraction techniques. Part 2, on bioactive compounds
and health claims, covers the roles of different bioactive
compounds and their health-promoting potential for lifestyle
diseases. This section explains the botany, physical
characteristics, uniqueness, uses, distribution, importance,
phytochemistry, bioactivities, and future trends of different
functional foods.
