Questions and Answers

What are bioactive components in foods?

  • Common constituents found in foods with no additional physiological function
  • Specific constituents found in foods with beneficial physiological function beyond nutritional function (correct)
  • Harmful constituents found in foods in large quantities
  • Constituents found in foods that only provide nutritional functions
