Abstract
People are increasingly concerned by the effect of their diet on health. Excessive consumption of some dietary components (fat, sugar) may have negative effects, whereas the consumption of other components (fiber, micronutrients, etc.) is encouraged. Epidemiology studies have suggested a protective role for different constituents of our diet against diseases. The reduced prevalence of various cancers by the consumption of fruit and vegetables is now well established.1 Other associations, such as the protective role of wine against cardiovascular diseases2 or of soya against breast cancer3 have been suggested. Many researchers try today to identify the molecules in food responsible for these protective effects.
