Functional beverage

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

A functional beverage is classified as a conventional liquid food marketed to convey product ingredients or supposed health benefit. Although a functional beverage may be marketed as a panacea or a performance-enhancing substance, there is no scientific evidence for any specific health effects of such beverages or for their uniform regulation internationally, as of 2020. Examples of functional beverages include dairy beverages, sports and performance drinks, energy drinks, ready-to-drink teas, smart drinks, fortified fruit drinks, plant milks, and enhanced water.
