Bioactive natural compounds have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their potential health benefits, which extend beyond their basic nutritional roles. These compounds exhibit anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, anti-hypertensive, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities, contributing to their overall health-promoting effects. Over the past decade, extensive research has been conducted to explore the health impact of bioactive compounds, leading to a growing interest in developing food applications that incorporate these beneficial ingredients. The demand for functional foods, superfoods, and tailor-made foods has surged, driven by the desire of consumers to enhance their health through dietary supplementation.
