Abstract
Nutraceuticals
have gained popularity for supplemental health benefits and for the ability to
complement pharmaceuticals to prevent, delay, and manage chronic disease. The
development of nutraceuticals involves the use of genome editing technology
such as the newly developed CRISPR/Cas9 system, a novel and powerful method to
knock out, knock-in, upregulate, and downregulate genes, including genes that
can improve the nutritional profile of a plant as well as increase the
production of nutraceuticals. Nutraceuticals, such as those implicated in
aging, life expectancy, and chronic diseases can now be developed using
CRISPR/Cas9. Establishing a CRISPR-based system to develop nutraceuticals and
improve human health will benefit society.
