Integronic Alimentation through Whole Natural Food Biodiversity, in Relation with Altitude Gradation

The study analyzes food and alimentary act in relation with altitude gradient, from the perspective of multiple integrations, as a consequence of the coexistence of integrated agricultural and food systems, that concomitantly manifest on direction of environment - organism, as well as at intra organism level up to molecular level. The paper puts into evidence the nutritional systemic and dynamic complexity by defining the concept of integronic alimentation, respectively by analyzing a matrix system that may bio structurally comprise nutritional and environment factors, and functionally base on the process of emergent integronics. This approach proposes to profoundly understand the quality of the mountain and pre mountain food, in comparison with the plain one and that one from wet zones, through consideration of nutritional profile and evaluation of food resources (nutritive, health generating, eMergetic, quality-price etc.), in relation with the metabolic stress of modern alimentation and of the specific food in fragile zones.
