In addition, undernutrition worsens the intensity of several infections, such as measles\u0000and malaria. Food fortification is an important nutritional strategy that helps to combat micronutrient deficiencies and decrease their occurrence in many low- and middle-income nations. Although\u0000there has been a significant rise in recent years, food fortification schemes have also encountered\u0000considerable criticism from the scientific community. The present review aimed to clarify the actual influence of food fortification measures on the mitigation of malnutrition. A detailed review of\u0000the current state of the art in nanotechnology applications for food enrichment is provided in this\u0000manuscript. A comprehensive literature search was conducted utilizing databases such as Web of\u0000Science/ Knowledge, Google Scholar, Elsevier ScienceDirect, and Springer Online Journals. The\u0000search query included phrases such as food fortification, micronutrient shortages, fortified food,\u0000the impact of food fortification, and food-to-food fortification. The paper discusses the nanostructures, such as nanoparticles, nanocapsules, and nanoemulsions, in encapsulating, delivering, and\u0000safeguarding bioactive compounds within food matrices, with a particular emphasis on nanofortification. Recent advancements in nano-enabled food fortification are summarised in the manuscript,\u0000which also identifies significant challenges and opportunities for future commercialization and research.

Numerous primitive civilizations acknowledged the need to relieve the inflamed airways\u0000and nasal passages oxidants are a persistent danger to the lungs since they can be produced\u0000either intracellularly by metabolic processes (such as mitochondrial electron transfer during respiration\u0000or during phagocyte activation) or from another source such as tobacco smoking or air pollutants.\u0000It is likely to be advantageous to target oxidative stress with antioxidants or increase endogenous\u0000antioxidant levels in the treatment of COPD, asthma, and COVID-19. In trials on both human\u0000beings and animals, the administration of small antioxidants via the intratracheal, oral, and\u0000vascular routes exhibited only minimal therapeutic potential against short- and long-term oxidative\u0000stress. Lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids all respond to oxygen in quick and practical ways.\u0000For the ROS (reactive oxygen species) system to run properly, it requires adequate oxidation-reducing\u0000components, like vitamins and antioxidants intake. Numerous nutrients, including vitamins\u0000such as vitamin A, vitamin B etc., minerals (magnesium, zinc, and iron), flavonoids, and fatty\u0000acids, have prominent functions in reducing the likelihood of viral diseases and chronic lung disorders.\u0000In this review, the applications of antioxidants in the prevention of respiratory diseases are\u0000discussed along with some reported nutraceuticals being used in respiratory disease and patents.\u0000The applications of antioxidants in preventing and managing respiratory diseases are discussed in\u0000this review, shedding light on the importance of ongoing research in this field.
