The chemical composition isn't as important as knowing the nutrient content and how you react to foods. Your reaction is probably most important so you can avoid foods you may have an alergic reaction to. Then understanding nutrient will allow you to develop a healthy diet. It would also be helpful to understand additives and which ones to avoid.
