Abstract :
Yogurt has been recognized as a nutritious food with numerous health benefits due to its probiotic content and
high protein levels. In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in improving the functional characteristics of yogurt
by using plant-based nutraceuticals. These bioactive chemicals,produced from diverse plant and dietary sources, have extra
health-promoting benefits than basic nutritionThe integration of plant-based nutraceuticals into yogurt presents an
innovative approach to creating functional dairy products with targeted health benefits, appealing to health-conscious
consumers.Therefore, we reviewed the latest trends and advancements in the development of functional yogurt enriched
with plant-based nutraceuticals. Moreover, we reviewed the role of different plant-based nutraceuticals, such as
polyphenols, flavonoids, antioxidants, and prebiotics, in enhancing the nutritional value and health benefits of functional
yogurt. Introducing plant-based nutraceuticals into yogurt improved a variety of physical features such as pH levels,
titratable acidity, rheological characteristics, and water holding capacity. It has been shown that adding healthy nutrients
to yogurt enhances gut health,cardiovascular health, as well as lessen metabolic disorders. All things considered, adding
plant-based nutrients to yogurt is a viable way to create functional dairy products that meet consumers' changing health
needs and improve their general well-being.

Yogurt has been recognized as a nutritious food with numerous health benefits due to its probiotic content and
high protein levels. In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in improving the functional characteristics of yogurt
by using plant-based nutraceuticals. These bioactive chemicals,produced from diverse plant and dietary sources, have extra
health-promoting benefits than basic nutritionThe integration of plant-based nutraceuticals into yogurt presents an
innovative approach to creating functional dairy products with targeted health benefits, appealing to health-conscious
consumers.Therefore, we reviewed the latest trends and advancements in the development of functional yogurt enriched
with plant-based nutraceuticals. Moreover, we reviewed the role of different plant-based nutraceuticals, such as
polyphenols, flavonoids, antioxidants, and prebiotics, in enhancing the nutritional value and health benefits of functional
yogurt. Introducing plant-based nutraceuticals into yogurt improved a variety of physical features such as pH levels,
titratable acidity, rheological characteristics, and water holding capacity. It has been shown that adding healthy nutrients
to yogurt enhances gut health,cardiovascular health, as well as lessen metabolic disorders. All things considered, adding
plant-based nutrients to yogurt is a viable way to create functional dairy products that meet consumers' changing health
needs and improve their general well-being.
