What are Nutritional Supplements and Nutraceuticals?
A dietary supplement is a product that contains one or more dietary ingredients: A mineral, a vitamin, an amino acid, a medical herb or other botanical, a dietary substance to compensate for deficiencies in concentrate, metabolite, constituent, extract, or combinations of these ingredients in diet/daily intake.
The term nutraceutical derived from “nutrition” and “pharmaceutics.” Nutraceuticals are similar to nutritional supplements but are used for health purposes other than nutrition lacking in diet. The term is applied to products that are isolated from herbal products, dietary supplements (nutrients), specific diets, and processed foods such as cereals, soups, and beverages that other than nutrition are also used as medicine. Some popular nutraceuticals include ginseng, Echinacea, green tea, glucosamine, omega-3, lutein, folic acid, and cod liver oil. Majority of the nutraceuticals possess multiple potential therapeutic properties.
