a cell that is a component of sclerenchyma, much elongated often dead cells that often have lignified walls, rarely having processes, cf. sclereid, see fiber tracheids, libriform fibres; more generally, any tough and flexible structure.
All fibers are resistant to digestion in the small intestine, meaning they arrive at the colon intact. Although most fibers are carbohydrates, one important factor that determines their susceptibility to digestion by human enzymes is the conformation of the chemical bonds between sugar molecules (glycosidic bonds). Humans lack digestive enzymes capable of hydrolyzing (breaking apart) most beta-glycosidic bonds, which explains why amylose, a glucose polymer with alpha-1,4 glycosidic bonds is digestible by human enzymes, while cellulose, a glucose polymer with beta-1,4 glycosidic bonds is indigestible

Flavonoids are a large family of compounds synthesized by plants that have a common chemical structure. The basic structure of a flavonoid is shown in figure 1. Flavonoids may be further divided into subclasses (see table 1). Over the past decade, scientists have become increasingly interested in the potential for various dietary flavonoids to explain some of the health benefits associated with fruit and vegetable-rich diets. These potential health benefits are being used to promote the consumption of flavonoid-rich foods, beverages and dietary supplements. This article reviews the scientific evidence for the hypothesis that dietary flavonoids promote health and prevent disease in humans. For more detailed information on the health effects of isoflavones, a subclass of flavonoids with estrogenic activity, see the separate article on Soy Isoflavones. For more information on the health benefits of foods that are rich in flavonoids, see separate articles on Fruits and Vegetables, Legumes and Tea.

Fluorine
Fluorine occurs naturally in the Earth's crust, water, and food as the negatively charged ion, fluoride (F-). Fluoride is considered a trace element because only small amounts are present in the body (about 2.6 grams in adults), and because the daily requirement for maintaining dental health is only a few milligrams a day. About 95% of the total body fluoride is found in bones and teeth. Although its role in the prevention of dental caries (tooth decay) is well established, fluoride is not generally considered an essential mineral element because humans do not require it for growth or to sustain life. However, if one considers the prevention of chronic disease (dental caries), an important criterion in determining essentiality, then fluoride might well be considered an essential trace element

furan:
a heterocyclic ring that is the basis of the furanoses and found in limonoids, etc..
Furan ring, C4 H4 O.furan
.
furanocoumarins:
group of complex coumarins in which the coumarin structure is prenylated (i.e., a five-carbon unit derived from mevalonic acid is attached); this five-carbon mevalonate-derived unit is usually reduced to two carbons which are part of a furan ring that is attached to a benzene ring; immediate precursors for furanocoumarin synthesis are umbelliferone and isoprene; linear furanocoumarins have the furan ring in line with the benz-2-pyrone nucleus, angular furanocoumarins have the furan ring oriented at an angle to the nucleus.
Furanocoumarin base.

fusiform
= lens-shaped, i.e. narrower at both ends than at the centre. .
fusiform initials:
a kind of cambial initial found in the vascular cambium, vertically elongated cells the division and differentiation of which produces the vertically-elongated members of the vascular tissue, sieve tubes, vessels, etc., cf. ray initials. .
