Les aliments fonctionnels sont ceux qui contiennent des ingrédients qui présentent des qualités physiologiques supplémentaires par rapport à leur valeur nutritive de base. Les aliments fonctionnels peuvent donc avoir des conséquences bénéfiques pour la santé et le bien-être (en agissant sur l'esprit autant que le corps), et peuvent aussi écarter le risque de contracter un certain nombre de maladies chroniques.
