Message: <blockquote data-quote="phoenix" data-source="post: 505570" data-attributes="member: 12578">This site uses UK data, but only a bit of the data is available without joining . I quite often use it to  check counts on basic foods when people ask on here. It seems to be a sort of online slimming club . After a free trial it costs £14.95<a href="http://www.weightlossresources.co.uk/calories/calorie_counter/chicken_meat.htm" target="_blank">http://www.weightlossresources.co.uk/calories/calorie_counter/chicken_meat.htm</a>The USDA tracker is a free resource from the US government. You can check it out without creating an account. It's big downside is that it uses US cups and ounces for measurement. If you can get the data in it provides very comprehensive reports for a long list of nutrients .  You can export  the data in excel form. I had to use it for a course recently and though it was just for one days intake, I found it exasperating because of I use grams and had to try to gind out things like how much spinach there is in a cup(It was really difficult for people from Asia and Africa because many  of the fresh foods they used weren't in it)<a href="https://www.supertracker.usda.gov/default.aspx" target="_blank">https://www.supertracker.usda.gov/default.aspx</a> You could get a book like the calorie, carb and fat bible which is UK based (and as they advertise it I think perhaps the source of data for weight loss resources) You could then input your own custom data into one of the free trackers like My fitness pal. Time consuming though.</blockquote>
