Marine-Derived Bioactive Ingredients in Functional Foods for Aging: Nutritional and Therapeutic Perspectives

Marine Drugs, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 22(11), P. 496 - 496

Published: Nov. 4, 2024

Aging is closely linked to various health challenges, including cardiovascular disease, metabolic disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions. This study emphasizes the critical role of bioactive compounds derived from marine sources, such as antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, polysaccharides, in addressing oxidative stress, inflammation, disorders related aging. Incorporating these materials into functional foods not only provides essential nutrients but also delivers therapeutic effects, thereby promoting healthy aging mitigating age-related diseases. The growth global anti-aging market, particularly North America, Europe, Asia, underscores significance this study. review systematically analyzes current research, identifying key compounds, their mechanisms action, potential benefits, thus highlighting broad applicability marine-derived enhancing improving quality life populations.
