Nutraceutical is a word obtained from Nutrition and Pharmaceuticals. Nutrients are a feed constituent that helps to support the life of human beings or animals. Pharmaceutical components are non-toxic food constituents, including prevention and treatment of disease. They commonly inhabit the disorders associated with oxidative stress, for instance, cardiovascular disease, Diabetes, and Hypertension. Nutraceuticals possess substantial importance because of their expected safety and possible nutritional and therapeutic effects. Hypertension is the most frequent risk factor for cardiovascular disease involving coronary heart disease and stroke. There is a crucial role in utilizing single and integral nutraceutical supplements, vitamins, antioxidants, and minerals in the treatment of hypertension. These food supplements rein huge demand because they are less toxic and have long life treatment with dietary food. We have done a face-to-face survey on 33 medical stores. The survey results found that the most demanding nutraceutical is Mactotal, and the least demanding nutraceuticals are Beryl tone and Allvell-Z graph seed extract. The survey study also shows a list of Nutraceuticals that are available in drug stores, including Mactotal, Omega fatty acids grape seed extract, Advanced BP support, Natural formula BP complex, Blood pressure formula, BP rescue, Cholbiome, Zeovita-4G, Super B complex, Alpha-linolenic acid, Allvell-Z grape seed extract tablet, Antioxidant support, Vegifruit syrup, Beet juice and Beryl tone.

Medical nutrition therapy (MNT) is a major clinical care concept, especially for non-communicable diseases such as obesity and hypertension. Primary healthcare (PHC) centers are the first point of contact with health services and provide a point of entry for the entire health system. Research has revealed that access to primary healthcare services is associated with improved health outcomes, such as an improvement in self-rated health and a decline in all-cause mortality. However, the integration of MNT in hypertension and obesity management at PHC level is unclear. The aim of this study is to establish PHC services for obese and hypertensive individuals with a focus on nutrition, and the need for further research. Awareness of dietary approach to stop hypertension (DASH) among health workers, obese and hypertensive individuals and it utilization in practice was low in PHC centers this is due to lack of registered dietitians’ nutritionists who are trained in MNT which is complicated by lack of ministerial funding of PHC facilities.
