'predestine' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with communicating as well as being verbs in their base form.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'concoction of more food' is the wordplay.
'concoction of' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'concoction' mean this).
'more'+'food'='morefood'
'morefood' is an anagram of 'FOREDOOM'.

'the' acts as a link.
