description Sustainability challenges and issues in nutraceuticals and functional foods arena have influenced both consumers and the industrial sector. Though the present day can be termed as an era of nutraceuticals and functional foods, the knowledge on sustainability among the people involved is limited in the pharma‐food industry.

Examples of nutraceuticals products, health benefits incurred, consumer trends and food choices as well as market values are all examined.
