[Blogspam]Made An Excel Sheet For Nutrition Database Of Common Foods

Hello Friends,

We often need to check and compare nutrients in food items, for which I had made an excel sheet of nutrition of common food items, based on data from USDA. I had been using it since quite a while and thought it might be helpful to others as well. Currently, it contains vegetables, fruits, meats, dairy, eggs, nuts, seeds, fats and oils. I might also add grains, herbs and spices in future.

Using this database one can quickly check which foods are high in which nutrient. To sort a column in Google Sheets, select that column, right click on it and select Sort sheet (Z-A or A-Z). For example, there are several suggestions that Zinc is important for immune system, one can see that Nuts and Seeds high in Zinc are Watermelon Seeds, Hempseed, Pumpkin Seeds; and Meats high in Zinc are Oysters.

Please check it out here and feel free to use and share as you like:
