Expert Report on Functional Foods: Opportunities and Challenges
A report commissioned by the Institute of Food Technologists, which "defines 'functional foods' as foods and food components that provide a health benefit beyond basic nutrition (for the intended population). Examples may include conventional foods; fortified, enriched or enhanced foods; and dietary supplements." Covers definitions, food and genes, current legal standards, labeling, scientific standards, government regulation, marketing, and the role of research.
