This Synthesis Report explores the evidence linking plant food intake with health effects, identifying the plant components that may convey health benefits, including bioactive compounds. It introduces work underway within EuroFIR to provide comprehensive, high quality information on the levels and biological effects of bioactive compounds in plant foods commonly consumed in Europe.
