摘要:"The book titled "Polyphenols: Food, Nutraceutical, and Nanotherapeutic Applications" provides us with detailed information on potential health benefits of food polyphenols against human diseases and their therapeutic interventions as nutraceuticals and nanoformulations. Plant-based foods including nutraceuticals, functional foods and dietary supplements have gradually become an area of increasing interest because of the potential health implications of polyphenols-based food products available in the market globally. Long-term consumption of foods rich in polyphenols has been reported to improve conditions in diabetes, osteoporosis, cancer, neurological disorders and cardiovascular disorders. The market demand for polyphenols-based food products and nutraceutical preparations is increasing rapidly with the social and economic development and the improvement of people's health awareness. The beneficial effects of polyphenols-based nutraceuticals and their nanoformulations attract more consumers who use polyphenols-based food products. However, many polyphenols have low oral bioavailability, which limits the application of polyphenols as nutraceuticals and in the form of nanomedicine. This book would be a useful resource for researchers working in the areas of dietary polyphenols, nanodeliveries and nutraceutical applications. The book chapters provide up-to-date information relating to the ongoing research on food polyphenols along with their health and therapeutic implications as antioxidants. The chapters are described in a lucid and consistent manner in order to aid flow, continuity and technical presentation. In this book, the health benefits of plant polyphenols in the prevention of various major diseases such as cancer, neurological disorders, CNS disorders, cardiovascular disorders, bacterial infections, and inflammatory disorders are summarized. This book particularly delineates food polyphenols and their antioxidant potentials with special emphasis on th
