The possibility to prevent and/or support pharmacological therapy, which is nowadays mainly based on pharmaceuticals, can be a powerful tool to face pathological, chronic, long-term diseases in subjects who do not qualify for a pharmacological therapy. Nutraceuticals are obtained from vegetal or animal origin foods, and prospective research on these products will clarify their role, safety and efficacy by substantiating their role with clinical data. An effort to clarify their mechanism of action will open a door to the next generation of therapeutic agents that do not propose themselves as an alternative to drugs, but, instead, can be helpful to complement a pharmacological therapy, and to prevent the onset of chronical diseases. The market as well as the interest of people in naturally-derived remedies and less synthetic pharmaceuticals is growing, and the attention of the collective public imagination is nowadays more strongly focused on these food-derived products. This Special Issue is dedicated to the role of and perspectives on nutraceuticals in human health, examined from different angles ranging from analytical aspects to clinical trials, and from efficacy studies to beneficial effects on health conditions. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aBiology, life sciences$2bicssc 606 $aFood & society$2bicssc 610 $abioactive polysaccharides 610 $aextraction 610 $abiomedical applications 610 $afenugreek seed 610 $agarlic 610 $alinseed 610 $acopper sulfate 610 $ayolk 610 $acholesterol 610 $acarotenoid 610 $aflavonoids 610 $aoxidative status 610 $apolyphenols 610 $ayolk color 610 $aapigenin 610 $aluteolin 610 $adegradation 610 $aferrous ions 610 $acupric ions 610 $acervical cancer cells 610 $agrowth inhibition 610 $aapoptosis 610 $aegg quality 610 $aHaugh unit 610 $aspirulina 610 $aantioxidant capacity 610 $afulvic acids 610 $afunctional beverage 610 $airon 610 $amineral 610 $aAllium sativum 610 $a?-carboline alkaloids 610 $aanti-adipogenic effects 610 $a3T3-L1 preadipocytes 610 $aAc-?-tubulin 610 $agrape 610 $agrape seeds 610 $aFTIR spectroscopy 610 $achemometrics 610 $afatty acids 610 $aphenolic compounds 610 $abiorefinery 610 $anutraceuticals 610 $aPrunus serotine 610 $adefatted flour 610 $asoluble protein 610 $aprotein concentrate 610 $aemulsifying properties 610 $aemulsion stability 610 $aginger water 610 $aobesity 610 $aenergy homeostasis 610 $agene expression 610 $arat 610 $aanti-inflammatory 610 $aantimicrobial 610 $aantioxidant 610 $aanthocyanins 610 $amedicinal foods 610 $aPlatycodon grandiflorus 610 $amedicinal food 610 $asaponins 610 $ahuman health 610 $aapplications 610 $acherry 610 $aintestinal absorption 610 $ananoparticles 610 $ananosystems 610 $aHUVEC 610 $abioactive compounds 610 $asafety 610 $ahealth 610 $aregulation 610 $aclinical tests 610 $aefficacy 610 $aanalysis 610 $aformulation 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aBiology, life sciences 615 7$aFood & society 700 $aDurazzo$b Alessandra$4edt$01296666 702 $aLucarini$b Massimo$4edt 702 $aSantini$b Antonello$4edt 702 $aDurazzo$b Alessandra$4oth 702 $aLucarini$b Massimo$4oth 702 $aSantini$b Antonello$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557765703321 996 $aNutraceuticals in Human Health$93035965 997 $aUNINA
