Functional Food Center (FFC) 36th International Conference

Functional Food Center (FFC) 36th International Conference is organized by Functional Food Center (FFC) Inc. and will be held from Oct 08 - 10, 2026 at University of Tsukuba - Tokyo Campus, Bunkyo, Tokyo, Japan.

Theme: "Functional Foods and Bioactive Compounds in Healthy Aging and Disease Management".

Description:
Years of research has demonstrated the efficacy of the diet rich in functional foods with bioactive compounds in reducing the risk of developing chronic disease. Decreasing the risk of chronic disease can also reduce the risk of viral disease, as those with chronic disease are more vulnerable to contracting and perishing from viral diseases. Considering the impact of the diet on both chronic and viral disease, having a greater understanding the bioactive compounds that produce the beneficial effects of the diet with functional foods can lead to improved health of the global population and decrease vulnerability to disease. Once identified, these bioactive compounds can be used in the development of functional foods for certain conditions, diseases, and their symptoms.
