Abstract

Nutraceuticals are largely used by general population. During the last decades, academicians and industries are intensifying the research of new bioactive compounds in order to improve the quality of life and to prevent disease in humans. The quality of the published research is however not always based on the rules of the Good Clinical Practice nor finalized to create a new Evidence-Based nutraceutical sciences. This chapter will resume some basic rules that we will expect to be applied to nutraceutical research in the next years.
