Think of it like the difference between a glass plate and a glass mug. They’re both made of glass, but the way they’ve been processed makes them useful for very different things.

Plants do something similar. They’re using the same soil to grow, but the specific ways they use the nutrients from that soil forms different chemicals in the parts we eat, which in turn makes eating them beneficial in different ways.
