Microalgae, including genera such as Spirulina sp., Chlorella sp., and Haematococcus sp., are 
\ngaining prominence as sources of functional food ingredients due to their rich profiles of bioactive 
\ncompounds. This paper systematically analyses microalgae-based functional foods' nutritional and 
\ntherapeutic potential and evaluates their relevance in preventive and integrative family medicine. Through 
\na structured literature review using PRISMA guidelines, 67 peer-reviewed articles were analyzed to 
\nassess clinical efficacy, safety, regulatory frameworks, and applicability in primary care. The evidence 
\nsuggests that microalgae supplementation can enhance metabolic health, modulate immune function, and 
\nreduce oxidative stress. Despite regulatory advancements, challenges persist regarding dosage 
\nstandardization and clinical integration. The study concludes that microalgae hold substantial promise as 
\ndietary adjuncts in family medicine, warranting further clinical validation.
