There continues to be strong interest within the food industry in developing new products which offer functional health benefits to the consumer.

Dairy foods are central to this sector: they are good delivery systems for functional foods (yoghurts, milk drinks, spreads) and are also rich in compounds which can be extracted and used as functional ingredients in other food types.
