Ontology to link food and diseases

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
