In the light of advances in the area of metabolomics and new, recently-discovered phytochemicals, this book focuses on the human health advantages of phytochemicals and on how the food industry can take advantage of this developing area. Divided into three sections, the book examines phytochemicals as a whole and their relationship to human health; it introduces the concept of nutrition and metabolomics, including the concept of regulated phytochemical intake and metabolomics; and introduces ways in which phytochemicals can be used in the food industry and how the industry can take commercial advantage of phytochemicals. Both fresh foods and processed foods will be covered. The book is aimed at food scientists and technologists, food industry managers and product developers, health professionals (medical and nutritionists), the agriculture industry (plant breeders, horticulturalists, grains industry).
