The document discusses nutraceuticals, which are foods or food components that provide health benefits including disease prevention and treatment. It defines nutraceuticals and outlines their history of use. The document then classifies and describes various nutraceuticals like antioxidants, probiotics, prebiotics, minerals, herbs, and phytochemicals. It notes that nutraceuticals can positively influence animal health when their concentration, timing, and duration of supply are appropriately manipulated. The document concludes that a diet rich in nutraceuticals combined with a healthy lifestyle can maximize health and reduce disease risk.

3. NUTRACEUTICALS
The term Nutraceuticals combine with the term
nutrient means a food or food particle and
pharmaceuticals that is a medical drug a
nutraceutical is a food with medical health and
benefit that includes the prevention and
treatment of diseases.

4. History
The term Nutraceutical was discover from nutrition
& pharmaceuticals in 1989 by Stephen DeFelice
Greek Physician Hippocrates
The nutraceutical industry inside us is about 86
billion Dollars this figure is slightly higher in Europe
and japan approximately a quarter of 6 billion Dollars
total annual food sales.47% of the Japanese
The Indians Egyptians Chinease and Sumerians
are few cicilizations that provide evidence that
suggest that foods can be use as a medicine to treat
and prevent dieases and enhance productivity of
animals

5. Continous
The modern nutraceutical industry began to
develop in japan in the 1980s.in contrast to
the natural herbs and spices used as folk
medicine for centries throught asia.
The nutraceutical industry has grown
alongside the expansion of modern
technology.

6. Analysis of food limited to:
(i)Flavor
(ii)Taste
(iii)Texture of food and its nutritional values and
compsosition of following things
Carbohydrates. Fats .Proteins .Water. Fats.
Minerals
Examples of the nutraceuticals chemicals includes
probiotics,antioxidents phytochemicals
Nutraceuticals are consider as alternative medicine
for many years.

7. Compound and risk of disease in animals
Potassium high pressure and stroke cause
high blood in animals
Plant& sterol ester cause coronary diseases
Soya protein cause also coronary heart
diseases
Fiber containing grains that cause cancer
Dietary sugar alcohol cause dental cavities.

8. Classification of nutraceuticals:
The food or food products that are use as
nutraceutical contain following except pro-
biotic
Antioxidant
Pre-biotic
Omega free fatty acids
Dietary fiber
8

9. Antioxidants
Antioxidants are substances which prevent
the body from free radicals.
They stabilize the free radicals
Zink and some vitamins are examples of
antioxidants
Antioxidants are present in canola oil corn oil
oat oil wheat germ
9

10. Pro-biotic
They are live microbial food ingredients
which are beneficial to health
500 different microbial species
Lactobacillus
Enhance rumen functions
10

11. Pre-biotic
They are substances which are given to animals
and beneficial for microbial growth in intestine and
normal digestion process
Insulin which is soluble dietary fibers and resistant
to digestive enzyme and thus reaches to large
intestine or colon essentially intact where it is
fermented by resistant bacteria Lactobacillus
Inline is example of pre-biotic that is soluble dietary
fiber and that resist the digestive enzymes that
increase digestion
11

12. MINRALS
Calcium:
Essential for bone growth and teeth
Iron Energy production
Magnesium
For healthy muscle and nerve formation
Phosphorous
Energy production bone strength and imp for
production of energy
Cobalt
Component of vitamin B-12 &its coenzymes
12

13. Continous….
Iodine
Proper function of thyroid gland
Chromium
Convert carbohydrates and fat into energy with the
help of insulin
Selenium
Antioxidant and part of GPX enzyme
Zink
Help in wound healing and Neonates body organ
formation and cell reproduction
13

14. Herbs
Aloe-Vera
Anti inflammatory and help in wound healing
Garlic
Anti bacterial anti inflammatory effects
Ginger
Carminative antiemetic also cure dizziness
Ginseng
Antioxidant and enhance humor and cell mediated
immunity
14

15. Various phytochemicals
 Toco-trienols & toco-pherols
Carotenoids are use as a oxidants and present in
crops
Phytosterols present in various plants and
decrease cholesterol
Iso-flavonaoids presnt in soya beans and anti
treating in nature
Fiber present in some crops and protects against
colorectal diseases
These are following nutraceuticals that are
modulate rumen fermentation in ruminants
15

16. Continous
Plant extracts that are garlic yucca oregano mint
cinnamon
Fat burning substances (L-carnithine organic
trivalent chromium omega-3-fatty acids
.The affect of saponins and tannins on rumen and
microbial activity as fallow
Breakdown of dietary protein
Garlic oil and benzyl salicylate reduced the acetate
and increased the propionate and butyrate
proportions which is an antimethanogenic effect
16

17. Continous
Cade oil, capsicum oi, and ginger oil resulted in
small effects on rumen microbial fermentation
probably related to their low content in oxygen High
doses of fenugreek resulted in reductions in
ammonia concentrations of 19.2 and 39.1%
respectively to hydrocarbons
Careful selection and combination of these
additives may allow the enhance of rumen microbial
fermentation
Their efficacy requires determination of potential
ruminal adaptation in long-term in vivo feeding
conditions

18. Applications of Nutraceuticals
Class & component and Source Potention
benifit
Beta-carotene damage Carrots Neutralizes free radicals,
which may
cells; bolsters cellular
antioxidant defenses
lycopene Maintain prostate health
Monosaturated fatty Soya beans-soya based May reduce cronory heart
acids foods attack
Sugar alcohols Reduce risk of dental
carrires
Lactobasili intestine
