ABSTRACT
Advancements in medical technology has led to a new category of products with medicinal value is
developed which involves the use of nutraceuticals. A nutraceutical is any substance that is a food
or part of food that provides health benefits, including prevention or treatment of diseases.
Nutraceuticals are pharmaceutical alternatives that claim physiological benefits however, they
differ from a typical pharmaceutical product wherein they aren't stringently sanctioned under the
law. This article aims to postulate promising nutraceutical alternatives to medicines that can be
potentially developed into marketed preparations to improve bone health. Thus, combatting bone
disorders such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, or faster recovery from fracture improving bone
strength in normal humans. The newer nutraceutical alternatives for improving bone health is
promising. We conclude on our fair understanding and judgment that in due course, these
alternative approaches may completely replace the traditional methods.
