Proteomics in the Evaluation of Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Nutraceuticals in Veterinary Medicine

Abstract

Nutraceuticals and functional foods are used in veterinary medicine as preventative or supportive treatments for disease and to improve animal health. Although the purported health benefits of nutraceuticals and functional foods in animals is well-documented, understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in the nutritive health benefits and disease outcome on a cellular level is warranted. Proteomics-based techniques are evolving as a promising tool that may provide the scientific knowledge to link diet and disease in nutritional research. The use of proteomics in nutrition research has transformed into the disciplines of nutriproteomics and foodomics. Although more studies are warranted to garner a deeper understanding of the mechanisms responsible for the health benefits of these nutritive substances in animals, nutriproteomics and foodomics applications have offered new insights into the molecular mechanisms of action and changes in protein expression of a variety of nutritive substances.
