Descripción
FAO launches the Food and Diet domain on FAOSTAT, the first centralized location for the sharing of statistics on all forms of dietary related data in an effort to harmonize the processing of dietary data, increase their dissemination, and improve the utilization of food supply, food consumption, and diet quality statistics and indicators. The Food and Diet domain on FAOSTAT presents harmonized statistics for twenty-four nutrients in total. The statistics are presented at the national level for all data sources, by geographic areas for all data sources except for supply utilization accounts, by income groups for household consumption and expenditure surveys, and by sex-age groups for individual quantitative dietary data. The statistics by food groups, for all data sources, are based on a nutrition-sensitive food grouping classification. This analytical brief presents the new domain and the data that users can now easily access and compare across countries and years.
