Aging can be perceived differently during different times in one's
life. Aging as a process not only influences medical and economic
dimensions at an individual level but also at societal and national
levels. Aging is a natural process; however, its standard
definition in a healthcare context is yet unclear. To delay the
aging process and to maintain quality of life until the end of life
are two goals of prime importance. Various healthcare approaches
are being developed and experimented on to best manage aging as if
it is a disease. Nutraceuticals are value-added dietary supplement
products and have an immense potential in altering key structures
and functions of aging. Nutraceuticals can be a keystone in
altering sub-normal performing physiological and metabolic systems
