New PDF files of protein counts

[Guest guest]

All,

I have just placed PDF versions of the protein count files in the

files section. These are PDF versions of the existing Excel

spreadsheets in response to requests from those who don't have

Excel. Acrobat Reader is all that's required to print them. The latest

Acrobat Reader may be obtained here:

These are from the USDA data set as published in table 2 of Home and

Garden Bulletin No. 72, " Nutritive Value of Foods, " revised 1985. The

list is HUGE, quite comprehensive, and authoritative. This data is the

source of nutritional information used by many authors of nutrition

books, yet is free :-)

As in the Excel spreadsheets, one is sorted by food name, the other

sorted by protein content. They are in the " Protein " (lists of protein

counts) folder:

Enjoy,
