Résumé

As populations expand day by day, global food requisition is also growing. Challenges to fulfill the demand for food will rise by the year 2050. Food acquired from land biomass has become expensive and challenging due to overpopulation, posing life-threatening situations to various animals and organisms due to the overuse of harmful chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Thus, food from marine ecosystems addresses a significant resource for food security. The objectives of the designed manuscript are to present updated and advanced research on functional food and nutraceuticals containing bioactive compounds obtained from fish and their pharmacological aspects. Fish exhibit various valuable bioactive compounds like essential omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and proteins, which offer numerous health benefits and are associated with mitigating various chronic disorders. The findings of this review paper indicate that fish farming may be a good source for functional food and therapeutic compounds for managing chronic diseases. Fish farming using advanced techniques is significantly cost-effective and environmentally friendly, producing more functional food ingredients and therapeutic compounds.
