Abstract
Functional foods, fortified with bioactive compounds, offer health benefits beyond basic nutrition. Despite their potential, challenges such as compound instability, scalability issues, and regulatory gaps exist. This commentary explores their role, market dynamics, and future trends, emphasizing the need for ongoing research and effective regulations.
