Traditional foods can be defined as foods that have been consumed for several generations by a specific community in a particular locality, region or country. Many of these plant- and animal-based foods have traditionally been consumed for generations in different corners of the world, without proper understanding or knowledge of their beneficial properties. Apart from the basic nutritional attributes provided by these foods, they contribute to the prevention of several diseases, including hypertension, hyperglycemia and gastrointestinal disorders. The way traditional foods are prepared also plays a key role in naturally preserving the therapeutic potential of the food ingredients. In the present age of globalization, where food habits and food preferences are constantly being challenged, the reinvention of the therapeutic potential of traditional foods can provide a viable alternative. Measures have been initiated to gain an understanding of the beneficial attributes of traditional foods. Traditional Foods: The Reinvented Superfoods focuses on the health benefits of traditional foods in the light of recent evidence. This book also presents a fundamental overview of food-based therapy and the traditional methods that contribute to the preservation of the nutraceutical properties of food ingredients. This text comprehensively presents the background, history and prospects of traditional foods for a broad range of readers, presenting a balanced understanding of the present knowledge and technical advances in the field of traditional foods. Readers will find photographs of all the major traditional foods, along with illustrative schemes and sketches highlighting their preparation and future commercialization strategies.

The book aims to present a detailed overview regarding the extraction, characterization, modifications, and applications of plant-based biopolymers in different commercial sectors by pinpointing their advantages over conventional synthetic polymers. In this connection, an insight into the unconventional or underutilized plant sources will be explored. In addition, the book will also throw light on the physicochemical, biochemical, mechanical, and extraordinary properties of such biopolymers. Furthermore, the findings of recent research in this field that will help understand the existing limitations of biopolymers, the advanced strategies for overcoming these constraints, and the prospect of their large-scale production is included. Moreover, the significant contributions of other disciplines like biotechnology, nanotechnology, polymer science, and engineering will be discussed. An important section of this book will highlight the present global status of the commercialization, overall acceptance, and prospects of plant-based biopolymers. The post-graduate students, research scholars, faculties, and scientists working in the fields of food science and technology, pharmaceutical technology, biomedical science, environmental science, agricultural science and allied disciplines will benefit from this book.
