2 INTRODUCTION As Canadians recognize the crucial role of nutrition in the maintenance of good health, they are increasingly seeking information regarding the nutrient density of foods on the Canadian market. Contents Facts About the Foods 4 Facts About the Nutrients 4 Abbreviations and Symbols 5 Health Canada publishes two databases which list nutrient values in Canadian foods. The first is a large, Approximate Metric Equivalents to Common Household s 5 comprehensive, computerized database called the Canadian Nutrient File (CNF), which reports up to 115 Appendix 1. Profile of Fatty Acids in Specific Foods 43 nutrients in foods. The nutrient values are given per 100 grams of the edible portion of the food described. While this format and detail is useful to many health professionals and food industry members, Index 51 an abbreviated, printed version is a more suitable reference for a variety of Canadians. Bread, Cereals and Other Grain Products Flours and Brans 6 For this reason we have produced this booklet entitled Nutrient Value of Some Common Foods. This Breads and Buns 6-7 publication lists 19 nutrients in 975 foods marketed in Canada. The nutrient values are taken from the 1997 Other Bread Products 7 version of the CNF and are given in terms of the common household measure of the ready-to-eat form of the food. Breakfast cereals 7-8 Pasta, Rice and Other Grains 9 This edition of the Nutrient Value of Some Common Foods is an update to the 1988 version. During the Pancakes and Waffles 9-10 interval, changes have taken place in our food supply, in our understanding of nutrition in health and the Baked Goods technological advances in nutrient chemical analysis. Thus you will find this current version of the booklet Biscuits, Croissants, Doughnuts, and Muffins 10 much altered from that previously issued. Cookies and Granola Bars Use this quick and easy reference as a guide or a teaching tool towards forming better food choices Cakes through an understanding of the nutrient content of the foods you eat.

4 FACTS ABOUT THE FOODS Foods commonly consumed by Canadians have been chosen and listed alphabetically under 16 general food headings. This classification allows the user to easily locate a particular food and to compare its nutrient values to similar foods. The index should be used to locate foods whose classification may not be apparent. FACTS ABOUT THE NUTRIENTS Values for the 19 nutrients have been obtained from the Canadian Nutrient File, 1997, Health Canada. The nutrients were chosen based on those of highest public health concern and those of greatest demand by educators, health practitioners and industry. Products for special dietary use such as low sodium The values for food energy are expressed in kilocalories products, as well as infant formulae and baby foods, are (kcal) and kilojoules (kj) (1 kcal = kj). One calorie not included. The nutrient values of these products are is the amount of energy (heat) required to raise the well documented on the labels by the manufacturers. temperature of one gram of water one degree Celsius, and is equal to Joules.

Should you require 1000 times as large as the calorie. The sources of food data for a measure other than the one provided, use the energy are protein, carbohydrate, fat and alcohol. weight of the portion as your guide for conversions. The tables include five minerals (calcium, iron, zinc, Nutrient values are given for the weight of the edible sodium and potassium) and seven vitamins (vitamin A, portion as described. This is the portion left after inedible vitamin C, vitamin B6, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and or refuse parts are discarded, and cooking losses.

Therefore the folate values do not reflect total dietary fibre in foods. that which may be added as enrichment. Trace indicates a measurable quantity in the food, but too small to be included. Zeros indicate an analyzed zero content of the nutrient. Dashes indicate a lack of data or missing value for a nutrient. Do not assume that missing values are zeros. The values presented here are mean values for a nationwide representative sample. Some of them have a wide range of deviation based on a variation in contributing samples due to such factors as soil type, season, geography, genetics and diet. 4
