Tabela Nutricional - TACO

Brazilian Table of Food Composition (Peg)

Knowledge of the composition of the food consumed in Brazil is essential to achieve food and nutrition security. The information of a food composition table are basic pillars for nutrition education, control of food quality and intake assessment of individuals or populations nutrients.

The TACO project (Brazilian Table of Food Composition) aims to generate data on the composition of the main foods consumed in Brazil, based on a sampling plan that guarantees representative values, with analyzes performed by laboratories with analytical skills proven through interlaboratory studies in order to ensure the reliability of the results.

The project, coordinated by NEPA / UNICAMP, is an initiative to provide data from a large number of nutrients in national and regional food obtained through representative sampling and analysis performed only by laboratories with analytical skills proven by interlaboratory studies according to international criteria.
