Final remarks
bioactive compounds and nutrientscomposition and consumption data of regional and local foods are prerequisite to investigate the contribution of biodiversity to nutrition and health
bioacessibilityassessment the physical state of bioactive compounds and their location within the cellsassessment food/meals as they are eatenin vitro models allow one to test different hypothesis to understand the nature of the potential interaction between bioactive compounds and nutrients in foods.
