Data on the composition of foods are essential for a diversity of purposes in many fields of activity. "Food composition data" was produced as a set of guidelines to aid individuals and organizations involved in the analysis of foods, the compilation of data, data dissemination and data use. Its primary objective is to show how to obtain good-quality data that meet the requirements of the multiple users of food composition databases. These guidelines draw on experience gained in countries where food composition programmes have been active for many years. This book provides an invaluable guide for professionals in health and agriculture research, policy development, food regulation and safety, food product development, clinical practice, epidemiology and many other fields of endeavour where food composition data provide a fundamental resource.

In conclusion, food composition data can never be taken for granted, but should be produced, evaluated, and used with care, considering that it is the basis for many use cases in food research, food labelling and food policy development. In the end food composition data need to fit the users’ needs.

About twenty years ago, there was a recognition in Europe that real benefits would flow from coordinating the manner in which food composition tables were produced in the various countries of Europe. Subsequent development of computerised nutritional data bases has further highlighted the potential advantages of working together. Such cooperation could lead to improved quality and compatibility of the various European nutrient data bases and the values within them. This realisation was one of the driving forces behind the development of the Eurofoods initiative in the 1980's when those people in Europe interested in data on food composition began working together. This initiative received further impetus with the establishment of the Eurofoods-Enfant Concerted Action Project within the framework of the FLAIR (Food-Linked Agro-Industrial Research) Programme of the Commission of the European Communities. It was quickly recognised that the draft guidelines for the production, management and use of food composition data which had been prepared under the aegis of INFOODS (International Network of Food Data Systems, a project of the United Nations University), would be especially applicable to the objectives of the Concerted Action. The guidelines have been written by two recognised experts. Many people associated with FLAIR Eurofoods-Enfant have added constructive criticism and advice to that offered previously by those associated with INFOODS. Thus the guidelines are backed by a consensus in the community of those responsible for the production and use of food composition tables and nutrient data bases.

Food composition data is important in nutritional policy making. However, food analyses are expensive and to use analysed values only is not economically justifiable; hence recipe calculations are important for the quality of food composition databases. The aim with this project, financed by the Nordic Council of Ministers, was to improve and standardize the recipe calculation method. A general recipe calculation method was developed, implemented and validated by comparing analysed and calculated content. The method and the foods recalculated within the project will be used in national dietary surveys and are available to the public through the national food composition databases. This report may be used as a guide through recipe calculations. Furthermore, the importance of well-structured methods for recipe calculations and possible consequences otherwise are highlighted.

Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2020-508/ Abstract [en] This report describes the activities of two projects that were carried out us-ing the infrastructure of the Nordic Food Analysis Network, i.e. the ‘Nordic Food Composition Data for Labelling (NordCoLa)’ project carried out between 2018 and 2020, and the preceding project ‘Fostering the quality and use of Nordic food composition data’, carried out under the Finnish Presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers in 2016. The primary aim of the NordCoLa project was to evaluate the needs, gaps and synergies of the Nordic food consumption databases in relation to the data to be used to implement the new European nutrient labelling legislation. This was to ensure quality food composition data in the Nordic countries for food producers and other users for nutrient labelling purposes. The results of the projects are summarised in this report.

A guideline on methods for analyzing foods, the organization and content of food composition tables and data bases, and procedures for the accurate international interchange of data. Focuses specifically on the issues involved in gathering, and estimating where necessary, the data for such tables and data bases. Its goal is to make future food composition data bases more consistent, more compatible, and more useful to a wider audience. Directed toward both the developers and the users of the data bases.

Abstract: Data are presented in 3 major food composition tables for the nutrient content of foods consumed in the Near East, including the amount of the various nutrients in 100 g of the edible portion of the food and the amount in the edible portion of 100 g of the food as purchased. The 3 major tables provide food composition data for: the proximate composition, mineral and vitamin content of the foods; the amino acid content; and the fatty acid content. The foods are organized under each of these tables into 14 food classes (e.g., cereals and grain products, sturdy roots and tubers, nuts and seeds, vegetables, fruits, meat and poultry, eggs, etc.). Five appendices (e.g., factors used to calculate food nutrient contents, common names of foods, scientific names of plants and fish) and 3 bibliographies (data sources for food composition tables, scientific nomenclature of plants and fish, descriptions of selected processed foods) are included.
