Plants: From Farm to Food and Biomedical Applications
Original language description
Historically, mankind has used plants and their derivatives as food and medicine for thousands of years. Currently, plants and natural products (NP) in general are extensively used as the main ingredients of culinary preparations or as spices all around the world, while, on the other hand, they are exploited as sources of bioactive compounds for the development of drugs and health-promoting products. Despite several drawbacks of NP having led pharmaceutical companies to reduce NP-based drug discovery programs in recent years [1], the use of “botanicals” (plant-derived ingredients and extracts from algae and fungi) as the main active ingredients of food supplements and nutraceuticals is increas ing [2]. Recent studies focusing on the US market show that herbal dietary supplement sales surpassed USD 10 billion for the first time in 2020, with an increase of 17.3% from 2019 [3]. The use of NP in personal care products is also increasing, since consumers are becoming more concerned about the content and adverse effects of conventional personal care products, and keen to use natural ones as a safer alternative.
