ABSTRACT
Nutraceuticals, a term derived from "nutrition" and "pharmaceuticals," encompass bioactive compounds derived from natural sources, such as plants, herbs, fruits, and marine organisms, which possess therapeutic properties and potential health benefits. This paper critically reviews the current state of research on the efficacy of Nutraceuticals in health maintenance and disease prevention. The mechanisms of action of Nutraceuticals are multifaceted and often involve modulation of various physiological pathways. These compounds exhibit antioxidant properties, scavenging free radicals and reducing oxidative stress, which plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of numerous chronic diseases. Additionally, Nutraceuticals exert anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting pro-inflammatory mediators and signaling pathways, thereby mitigating inflammation-associated tissue damage and disease Keywords: Nutraceuticals, Health Maintenance, Disease Prevention, Bioactive Compounds, Chronic Diseases, Mechanisms of Action, Evidence-Based Research.
