Abstract

Bioactive compounds are additional nutritional constituents that are present in plants. Bioactive compounds have numerous health effects. They exhibit anti-diabetic, anti-mutagenic, anti-oxidant, and anti-cancer properties. Bioactive compounds help in the treatment of cancer, increasing bone strength, strengthening the immune system and lowering cholesterol. Currently, the demand for natural bioactive compounds is increasing due to their use in the functional food industries as well as in pharmaceutical industries. Extraction of bioactive compounds from the plant sources efficiently and harmlessly is the biggest task for food and pharmaceutical industry.
