Bioavailability of Nutrients and Safety Measurements

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals

Abstract

Food nutrients play a vital role in the existence, sustenance, and evolution of all forms of life including human, and their adequacy largely depends on their chemical type, intake, and bioavailability. While knowledge on the bioavailability of ingested components is essential to estimate the quantity of nutrient that must be supplied to meet the minimum daily requirements, safety and bio–efficacy is critical for nutrient acceptability. Safety limits are imposed by regulatory agencies to restrict and regulate intake of nutrients to avoid possible adverse effects. With increased enforcement of regulations, the food industry is subjected to stringent scrutiny to ensure food quality and safety. Worldwide, viz. FAO/WHO, FDA, CFDA, EFSA and other regulatory agencies, and FSSAI in India aims at protecting the health of the public through strengthening the measures for assurance of food safety. Aspects relating to essential nutrients and their health effects, bioavailability, safety and regulations are discussed in this chapter.
