This book explores the complete development cycle of nutraceuticals and nano-nutraceuticals, with particular focus on manufacturing techniques and formulation strategies. It discusses their physicochemical behavior and presents innovative analytical characterization methods. The text also includes a variety of formulation approaches along with pharmacologic and pharmacokinetic evaluations. Several chapters address the controlled delivery of nutraceutical components, and the use of natural and biodegradable polymers in delivery systems is thoroughly reviewed. In vitro evaluation techniques for assessing nutrient delivery effectiveness are covered in detail, along with discussions on bioavailability, food additives, and encapsulation technologies. A dedicated chapter on the future of controlled-release technologies rounds out the volume.
