Reviews “A timely and comprehensive exploration . . . Brings together the latest research and insights from leading experts in the fields of marine biology, pharmacology, nutrition, and food science. It delves into the myriad sources of bioactive compounds in marine organisms, from microalgae and seaweeds to fish and marine invertebrates, highlighting their unique properties and potential health benefits. The book also examines the clinical perspectives and real world applications of these compounds, providing a bridge between basic research and practical uses in medicine and nutrition. . . Whether you are a researcher, a healthcare professional, a student, or simply someone intrigued by the potential of marine resources, this book will serve as a valuable resource and a source of inspiration.” —From the Foreword by Prof. A. B. Sharangi, Dean, Faculty of Horticulture, Bidhan Chandra Agricultural University, West Bengal, India “A significant contribution . . . offering a thorough exploration of the therapeutic and nutritional value locked within marine biodiversity. . . . It draws on the expertise of marine scientists, biochemists, nutritionists, and medical professionals to provide a holistic approach encompassing the ocean to organisms and its applications. The authors guide readers the sources of these bioactive compounds, their extraction and characterization, and their potential roles in disease prevention, health promotion, and well-being. . . . An essential resource for researchers, clinicians, and students, as well as anyone interested in the field of marine science and human health.” —From the Foreword by Mohammad Shafiur Rahman, PhD, Professor, Department of Food Science and Nutrition, College of Agricultural and Marine Sciences Sultan Qaboos University, Oman In recent years, the exploration of marine environments has unveiled a treasure trove of bioactive compounds, nutraceuticals, and functional foods—each with profound implications for human health and well-being. Marine organisms, from microalgae and seaweeds to deep-sea fish and invertebrates, are rich in compounds with promise in addressing some of the most pressing health challenges of our time, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and metabolic disorders. This new book, Bioactive Compounds, Nutraceuticals, and Functional Foods of Marine Origin: Sources, Clinical Perspectives, and Applications, helps to bridge the gap between marine science and clinical research, providing a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge in this rapidly evolving field.
