The Europiiische Akademie is concerned with the study of scientific
and technolog ical advances for the individual, society and the
natural environment. The work of the academy is interdisciplinary
drawing on relevant academic disciplines so far as they can inform
the debate on consequences and suggest solutions. This book is
dedicated to the issue of Functional Foods, a rather topical issue
with important ramifications for the overall quality of life. It is
the result of the Europiiische Akademie's working group "Functional
Foods" which worked from January 2001 to June 2003. Since the times
of Hippocrates, we view "food as our medicine, and medicine as our
food"; a view that is confirmed by nowadays science which agrees
that diet is related to health, well-being and the prevention of
disease. At the same time, food related diseases have reached
epidemic proportions in western societies while obe sity is
spreading rapidly in all parts and strata of modern society. The
cost for the health system is significant while the reduction in
quality of life is immeasurable."
