How does the booklet differ from the Canadian Nutrient File (CNF)?
Nutrient Value of Some Common Foods (NVSCF) is a condensed version of the CNF. It contains information on nutrients of public interest for 1100 foods by household measures whereas the CNF contains information for 5516 foods with up to 143 nutrients for 100g of the edible portion of the food. NVSCF is a publication that can be ordered through Health Canada Publications or printed from the Web while the CNF files can be downloaded or accessed through the searchable interface on the CNF website.
