Functional Food Definition
A functional food is a food providing an additional health function through the addition of new ingredients or additional quantities of existing ingredients.While there is no legal definition for a functional food, some common distinctives are that it appears in food form, it is intended to be consumed as part of one’s usual diet, and that some of the ingredients provide a health benefit beyond basic nutrition.In the past, governments have regulated the fortification and enrichment of foods to prevent nutrient deficiencies that could cause diseases. Now companies are moving past disease prevention and are trying to optimize health with products that have a proven functional benefit. Functional Food Packaging OptionsOnce produced, functional foods can be packaged into bottles and pouches as well as individually packaged in small pouches and stick packs.
