“This publication lists the nutrients most relevant in terms of public health and contribution to the food supply of 1100 of the most commonly consumed foods in Canada.” – from the Introduction.
Used by both health professionals and people interested in their food consumption, Nutrient Value of Some Common Foods is an excellent source of nutritional information about 975 foods marketed in Canada. It includes data for 19 nutrients, with new additions such as zinc, folate and vitamin B6. Selected foods also feature a Fatty Acid Profile. Canadians recognize the crucial role of nutrition in the maintenance of good health. Since the last publication of this guide in 1999, the eating habits of Canadians have changed, and our understanding of nutrition has also improved.
