The Aliment to Bodily Condition knowledgebase (ABCkb): a database connecting plants and human health
Abstract Objective Overconsumption of processed foods has led to an increase in chronic diet-related diseases such obesity and type 2 diabetes. Although diets high in fresh fruits and vegetables are linked with healthier outcomes, the specific mechanisms for these relationships are poorly understood...
