Functional Food

Functional foods are food products that are designed to offer health benefits beyond basic nutrition. These foods contain ingredients or components that have been scientifically shown to provide specific health benefits, such as improving digestion, reducing inflammation, or boosting immunity.

What are functional foods?  Foods that are functionally driven rather than product-driven, it is more likely to be universal and less impacted by local traits or cultural traditions.  Some of them include vitamins or other components that are meant to boost one's health.  The notion began in Japan in the 1980s  These foods are different from nutraceutical, pharmafood, Medi food, designer food, or vita food, and a category that does not include dietary supplements.  Functional foods are and must be foods, not drugs, as they have no therapeutic effects.

Food technology and its impact  From the point of view of food processing, the development of functional foods will often require an increased level of complexity and monitoring of food processing because the following will have to be considered carefully.  New raw materials including those produced by biotechnologies.  Emerging thermal and non-thermal technologies.  New safety issues.  Integration throughout the entire food chain especially to ensure the preservation and/or enhancement of functionality.

Technological challenges  A genetic modification: The use of under-utilized or unconventional natural sources (e.g., algae, seaweeds), the development of bioreactors based on immobilized enzymes  Membrane-processing techniques: Use of controlled and modified atmospheres, use of high hydrostatic pressure, high-intensity electric field pulse technology, or ultrasound treatments.  Monitoring: - microbial viability - productivity for probiotic functions.
