Book excerpt: Functional Food's research has allowed modern society to evade the side effects of modern pharmaceuticals and the problems associated with treating chronic diseases through surgical procedures. Presented in this book are scientists, food manufacturers, and healthcare professionals who are committed to functional food research that have brought together ideas and research to treat chronic illnesses and improve the quality of life through the utilization of functional foods with bioactive compounds. This book presents the discovery, sources, potential health benefits, and safety aspects of bioactive compounds and functional foods for chronic diseases, in addition to, the scientific research and development of novel functional food products. This issue not only preserves the numerous scientific concepts and contributions made in the field of functional food, but also lays the foundation for a field of science that will undoubtedly logarithmically expand in the coming years, changing modern society's relationship with medicine.
