Abstract

In recent years, there has been a substantial increase in the amount of focus placed on the utilization of nanocarriers as a novel technique for the delivery of phytochemicals in food. The potential of nanocarriers to improve the stability, targeting ability, bioavailability, and therapeutic efficacy of phytochemicals is the primary topic of this chapter. We examined the several nano-based carriers that are used for the onsite delivery of phytochemicals, focusing on their capacity to increase bioavailability and stability. In addition, the metabolic processes of phytochemicals when they are in the presence of nanocarriers are investigated, which sheds light on the possible interactions and changes that take place. In addition, the antimicrobial actions of phytochemicals as well as the health advantages connected with them are investigated, which provides insights into the prospective applications of these compounds. In general, this chapter gives a complete overview regarding nanocarriers application for the efficient delivery of phytochemicals in food and gives prospective pathways for increasing the functional characteristics and health-promoting impacts of these phytochemicals.
