Himalayan Fruits and Berries: Bioactive Compounds, Uses and Nutraceutical Potential presents nutraceutical fruits and berries from the region and highlights their potential use in nutraceutical products. The book includes coverage of the traditional, ethnomedicinal and local uses of potential nutraceutical wild fruits and berries and analyzes distribution, availability and cultivation methods. Nutritional composition is discussed, with available processing techniques are explored. In addition, the book offers a summary of clinical studies and presents “from field to industry case studies.
This book will be of benefit to nutrition researchers, food scientists, food chemists, plant scientists, pharmacologists, and students or researchers exploring the use of Himalayan wild berries and fruits in nutraceuticals. It will also be of use to those working in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries who are looking for new components and sources.
