Abstract

Nanotechnology is an innovative and futuristic technology that has currently been utilized in a wide range of industries. Nanotechnology can be used in food processing to improve the food’s overall quality, including taste and bioavailability. Moreover, nanotechnology is frequently employed in food packaging to create improved packaging and also serve as an antibacterial. Nanotechnology has been employed to create nanosensors for the quick and precise detection of food contaminants as well as for a smart packaging system. The discovery, development and implementation of several intervention techniques to enhance health and lower the risk and complications of numerous diseases have the potential to advance the science of nutrition. This might be achieved with the help of nanotechnology.
