Part 2 explores how obesity can be controlled and Part 3 looks at gut health and maintaining the immune function using functional ingredients such as probiotics and prebiotics. Part 4 reviews research on functional foods and cancer with chapters on synbiotics, anti-angiogenic functional foods, glucosinolatese, dietary fiber, and phytoestrogens. |
