"Functional Foods" is the name given to foods which have some sort of medical/health claim attached to them, for example pro-biotic yogurts (such as Danone, or Yakult) or cholesterol lowering spreads/oils/cereals. "Normal Foods" could be considered to be all foods except functional foods.
Can all food with a health claim be marketed as functional food?
Not all food with a health claim can be classified as functional food. Functional foods are typically defined as those that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition, often supported by scientific evidence. While health claims may be made for certain foods, they must meet specific regulatory standards and demonstrate a clear link between the food and its purported health benefits to be marketed as functional foods. Therefore, not all foods with health claims qualify as functional foods.

What is health enhancing foods?
Functional food is a food where a new ingredient(s) (or more of an existing ingredient) has been added to a food and the new product has an additional function (often one related to health-promotion or disease prevention).[1]The general category of functional foods includes processed food or foods fortified with health-promoting additives, like "vitamin-enriched" products. Products considered functional generally do not include products where fortification has been done to meet government regulations and the change is not recorded on the label as a significant addition ("invisible fortification"). An example of this type of fortification would be the historic addition of iodine to table salt, or Vitamin D to milk, done to resolve public health problems such as rickets. Fermented foods with live cultures are considered functional foods with probiotic benefits.
What are the pros and cons of functional foods?
Functional foods offer several benefits, including enhanced health benefits beyond basic nutrition, such as improved immune function or reduced disease risk. They can also promote better gut health and overall well-being. However, cons include the potential for misleading marketing claims and a lack of regulatory oversight, which may lead consumers to overestimate their benefits. Additionally, reliance on these foods might detract from a balanced diet rich in whole foods.
