Abstract
Food is and has always been a central force for Indians. Now, it' s not just
food but ' healthy food' that is dominating the picture. India' s functional
foods market is still very small but as the food industry develops it could
offer significant opportunity for functional food makers.Functional food also
termed as the ' nutraceutical' products (a hybrid of nutrition and
pharmaceutical) is any fresh or processed food claimed to have
health-promoting ingredients apart from its basic nutritional function.The
typical functional foods covered in this research report are prebiotic,
probiotic foods, omega fatty acids or even crops that naturally contain
components that aid the body functions like soy, gluten or whey proteins.
