Most of them conclude that financial literacy in the country is lacking. However, due to India's diverse cultural and socio-economic landscape, forming a unified assessment of its financial literacy level is challenging. Conducting a comprehensive nationwide study on financial literacy and its related aspects could provide a deeper understanding, aiding in the formulation of effective policies. This paper conceptualizes various facets concerning financial literacy, encompassing its origins, definition, financial literacy in India, and the role of India's National Centre for Financial Education and various initiatives taken by NCFE. It also discusses financial literacy in India as compared to its neighbouring countries. When examining the financial literacy of adults in neighbouring countries of India, the study reveals that India surpasses Bangladesh, Nepal, and Afghanistan, but falls behind Bhutan, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, China, and Pakistan. Financial literacy levels vary significantly among the states of India. Goa, Chandigarh, and Delhi are the most financially literate states, while Odisha, Sikkim, and Chhattisgarh are the least financially literate states.","PeriodicalId":496726,"journal":{"name":"Gap interdisciplinarities - a global journal of interdisciplinary studies","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135595981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nutraceuticals in broad are food or part of food playing a significant role in modifying and maintaining normal physiological function that maintains healthy human beings. Nutraceuticals and functional foods in the recent years have witnessed a tremendous increase in the interest among the consumers due to their potential of providing health and medical benefits and regulating immunity and thereby preventing as well as treating simple diseases. Thus the sector of nutraceuticals is often envisioned together of the missing blocks within the health advantage of a private . The food products used as nutraceuticals can be classified as traditional and non-traditional . Traditional will be directly obtained from nature like lycopene in tomatoes, omega-3 fatty acids in salmon or saponins in soy etc. Whereas non-traditional are enriched with supplements or genetically modified designed crops to boost the nutrients like minerals added to cereals etc. These nutraceuticals help in combating some of the major health problems of the century such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, osteoporosis, arthritis, diabetes, cholesterol etc. In whole nutraceuticals has led to the new era of drugs and health during which the food industry has become a search oriented sector. In present review, an understanding of various nutraceuticals and their role in preventing diseases, has been discussed. Further application of nutraceuticals within the prevention of varied diseases has also been discussed.","PeriodicalId":496726,"journal":{"name":"Gap interdisciplinarities - a global journal of interdisciplinary studies","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135800662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reviews of the available literature have long been seen as a crucial step in determining the nature of the vast body of information in various fields of study and enabling further advancement. Design, methodology, and approach: To meet the research objective, the study has set inclusion and exclusion criteria. As a result, only the Scopus dataset was chosen as a data source; scholarly published papers in English have been included; and articles beyond 2015–2023 were excluded from the analysis. Furthermore, the nature and validity of the systematic review paper conducted on social media and tourism are examined and evaluated using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Findings: The study found that the number of research studies in the area of social media impact on the development of the tourism industry has been steadily increasing since 2015. However, a large amount of research work was produced by a few researchers who were interested in finding knowledge and sharing information on the subject matter. Moreover, the expansion of social media platforms has become a crucial tool to promote, guide, and develop the tourism sector. Now, due to the increasing integration between social media and tourism, they are inseparable. Practical implications: This paper suggests that the role of social media in tourism is that social media can retain visitors’ flow to the tourist area. Originality and value: The study contributes to having more knowledge of social media and tourism from the literature review.","PeriodicalId":496726,"journal":{"name":"Gap interdisciplinarities - a global journal of interdisciplinary studies","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136052715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
