Guest guest Posted April 6, 2002 Report Share Posted April 6, 2002 taken from the scout report: 23. Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 14: Nutrient Lists [.pdf] http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/Data/SR14/wtrank/sr14a255.pdf A recent addition to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agriculture Research Service's Nutrient Database for Standard Reference is a report of nutrient lists. For each of the 30 nutrients, a list is provided, both sorted alphabetically and by nutrient content, of the amount of that nutrient found in each of 1,147 selected food items. What makes these lists particularly helpful is that the nutrient content data is provided in common portion measures. This is a great source of information, presented in an easy-to-use format. Anyone interested in increasing their intake of a certain nutrient can search these lists to assist their food choices. [AL] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I not see something? John P. - " joseph " <makas Friday, April 05, 2002 8:37 PM nutrient url > > taken from the scout report: > > 23.
