Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The prevalence of chronic metabolic diseases is steadily growing worldwide, and the burden is increasing due to the deterioration of individual quality of life and the occurrence of enormous socioeconomic costs. To solve these issues, research on verifying the physiological activity of nutraceuticals containing bioactive compounds has demonstrated the possibility of preventive and therapeutic treatment. Research on bioactive compounds expands into cutting-edge science by introducing state-of-the-art technologies. This Special Issue invites research on the recent development of nutraceuticals related to chronic metabolic diseases, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, inflammation, and dyslipidemia. This Special Issue aspires to provide food scientists, nutritionists, and specialists with the most trustworthy knowledge on the latest nutraceuticals in order to discover medicines. It is hoped that leading scientists in these fields will be able to participate in this innovative issue.
