Abstract:
Nutraceuticals are bioactive compounds or substances that have potential health benefits when administered as part of the diet in animals, including fish and other aquatic organisms. In fisheries and aquaculture, nutraceuticals are used to improve the cultured species' growth, health, and overall performance. In addition to their health benefits, nutraceuticals from fisheries and aquaculture can also be used in aquaculture to improve the growth and health of fish. For example, omega-3 fatty acids can be added to fish feed to improve the fatty acid composition of the fish flesh. This can make the fish more appealing to consumers and have health benefits for the people who eat the fish. They can help to improve cognitive function and memory. Nutraceuticals help to boost the immune system and fight off infection. The use of nutraceuticals in aquaculture is a growing field. As more research is conducted on these compounds' health benefits, their use will likely become more widespread.
