Nutraceuticals

​Nutraceutical is a term that evolved scientifically & also through marketing which is used to imply a pharmaceutical effect from plant extracts, compounds, food products which have efficacy and therapeutic influence on clinical outcomes and patient care largely through supplements.[1][2][3]

In the United States, nutraceuticals are considered and regulated as a subset of foods (such as dietary supplements) by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).[4][5] The same is widely accepted in Europe and parts of Asia and Africa.[6][7]
