Nutraceuticals are products derived from food sources that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition, including dietary supplements, functional foods, and bioactive compounds used for disease prevention or health promotion. Research published in the International Journal of Complementary Medicine examines multiple dimensions of this field, including consumer demand patterns for nutraceutical products, particularly among specific populations during health crises, and the global need for functional foods to support public health. The journal has featured investigations into nutraceutical applications across diverse areas: comparative studies of nutraceutical interventions for managing specific health conditions in veterinary contexts, exploration of algae as biotechnological sources for nutraceutical development, and the evolving paradigm connecting personalized medicine with customized nutrition strategies. Additional research has assessed the properties and biological activities of vitamin supplements, including cholecalciferol, and evaluated proprietary formulations containing vitamins and minerals for their antioxidant capacity and potential protective effects on organ systems including cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic health in experimental models. This body of work reflects growing scientific interest in understanding how food-derived bioactive substances can be systematically studied and potentially integrated into complementary health approaches, addressing both consumer interest and the need for evidence-based evaluation of nutraceutical products.
