Information Sources
Most basic food items come from McCance & Widdowson’s Composition
of Foods data, supplied by The Stationery Office (formerly HMSO). These
have been supplemented with data from the USDA database. Information on
Branded foods has, in the main, been supplied by manufacturers. Where it
has not been possible to obtain information from manufacturers,
information has been taken from packaging.
Accuracy of Data
Our inputting and verifying procedures mean that errors are kept to a
minimum, however they do occasionally get through. We are always grateful
to be told about errors – please email
fooddata@weightlossresources.co.uk
if you notice or suspect any errors. Calorie values given for food items
are ‘typical’ values, which means there may be small variations
depending, for example, on how and where a food is grown, or how it is
processed. Manufacturers sometimes make changes to their recipes and/or
preparation methods. Weight Loss Resources contacts manufacturers quarterly for updated
information.
