Hi Bernard,
I've just given a few examples, to give an idea of which kind of formal
representation I'm looking for. I agree with you that some form of
provenance/evidence tracking would be useful (even something as simple
as pointers to the provenance of a whole data set and criteria that were
used to build it).
Cheers,
Marco.

Hi Marco
This is a very touchy domain, where vocabularies and data should be
carefully wrapped within provenance, source, time stamp, authority.
More than anywhere else, beware of any positivist, unique thought,
thruth-based approach ...
The examples you give are not facts, but just statements which should
be backed by literature. Exceptions and different viewpoints exist, etc.
Think about the fact it will feed algorithms, at the end of the day.
And if you make them public, end in Google Knowledge Graph ...

Hi all,
I'm looking for an ontology/controlled vocabulary/alike that links
food ingredients/substances/dishes to human diseases/conditions,
like intolerances, allergies, diabetes etc.
Examples of information I'd like to find coded (please assume
they're true, I'm no expert):
- gluten must be avoided by people affected by coeliac disease
- omega-3 is good for people with high cholesterol
- sugar should be avoided by people with diabetes risk
I also would like linked data about commercial food products, but
even an ontology without 'instances' would be useful.
So far, I've found an amount of literature (eg, [1-3]) and
vocabularies like AGROVOC[4], but nothing like the above.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Marco
