Phytochemicals and Gut Health: Evidence and Opportunities for Gastrointestinal Management highlights specific plant phytochemicals, their bioactive compounds, and the influence they have on the gut-brain axis. By exploring sources, production, mechanisms of action, and clinical applications, the book uncovers how certain bioactives can optimize health and improve gastrointestinal diseases while reducing the side effects and limited efficacy of current medical treatments. The book's authors identify different classes of plant-based phytochemicals such as phenolic metabolites, alkaloids, terpenoids, and glucosinolates while demonstrating a better understanding of the gut-nutraceutical axis that can improve microbiota for GI disorders, and more.

Readers will also gain important perspectives on mechanisms of action and the synergistic effects phytochemicals have on cardiovascular and neurological health.

Dr. Sachchida Nand Rai is a Biochemistry Research Associate at Banaras Hindu University’s Institute of Science. He obtained his MSc in Biochemistry from Purvanchal University, India, and his PhD in Biochemistry from Banaras Hindu University, India. Dr. Rai researches the anti-oxidative and anti-neuroinflammatory properties of phytochemicals for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. He is a lifetime member of the Indian Academy of Neuroscience. Dr. Neeraj Tiwari is currently an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Biosciences, Institute of Biosciences and Technology at Shri RamSwaroop Memorial University, Lucknow-deva Road, Barabanki, India. He graduated from Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Varanasi with a degree in Masters of Science in Biochemistry from the Department of Biochemistry, Institute of Science, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. Later Dr. Tiwari also completed his Ph.D from the Biochemistry Department of this same university with a PhD in Biochemistry. The BHU is ranked consistently amongst the top universities of the country in terms of research environment. Dr. Tiwari’s current work is focused on exploring the therapeutic potential of phytochemicals/natural products in chronic diseases. With an h-index-12, he has published impressive publications in the journals of international repute. He has also authored several book chapters. Dr. Tiwari is also active reviewer for several reputed and refereed journals. Dr. Khubber is an assistant Professor, Food Science & Technology, Biotechnology & Bioinformatics, at DY Patil University. Her areas of interest include quality and safety standards, food biopolymers, bioactives, innovative processing, (food ingredients and nutraceuticals).
