History The Indians, Egyptians, Chinese, and Sumerians are
just a few civilizations that have used food as medicine.
Hippocrates, considered by some to be the father of Western medicine, said that people should “Let food be thy medicine.”
The modern nutraceutical market began to develop in Japan during the 1980s. In contrast to the natural herbs and spices used as folk medicine for centuries throughout Asia, the nutraceutical industry has grown alongside the expansion and exploration of modern technology.

What is it? Nutraceutical can be defined as “ A food or part of food
or nutrient, that provides health benefits, including the prevention and treatment of a disease.”
Nutrition Business Journal states that it uses the term nutraceutical for anything that is consumed primarily or particularly for health reasons. Based on that definition, a functional food would be a kind of nutraceutical.
The term “Nutraceutical” was coined from “Nutrition” & “Pharmaceutical” in 1989 by Stephen DeFelice, MD, Founder and Chairman of the Foundation for Innovation in Medicine (FIM).

Conclusion Nutraceutical may be beneficial to our health but
we are still learning about their benefits and
possible harmful effects.
Government regulatory bodies also face challenges
in this new category of health products, which lies
between foods and drugs.
Health professional , Nutritionists and regulatory
toxicologist should strategically work together to
plan appropriate regulation to provide ultimate
health and therapeutic benefit to mankind.
