The Agency has produced a summary of its research published in January and February 2012.
The Food Standards Agency is inviting tenders for a project to develop an electronic recipe database for the FSA to use in dietary consumption and exposure assessments.
The FSA uses a recipe database (in dietary surveys) to help ensure that foods consumed as ingredients of other foods are accounted for in dietary exposure assessments, as far as practicable and where appropriate.
The current database was developed more than 10 years ago and has evolved on an ad-hoc basis as new foods have become available. We now wish to commission a project for the development of a new, user friendly and robust database.
The Department of Health have issued revised guidance relating to legislation directly affecting food supplements.
