International Network of Food Data Systems - Standards for food composition data interchange

International Network of Food Data Systems (INFOODS) was established in 1984 on the basis of the recommendations of an international group convened under the auspices of the United Nations University (UNU). Its goal was to stimulate and coordinate efforts to improve the quality and availability of food data worldwide and develop international standards to ensure that anyone any where would be able to obtain adequate and reliable food composition data.
