The objective of this project is to establish an accurate vitamin and mineral data base that can be easily updated and serve as the comprehensive reference for monitoring the supplemental vitamin and/or mineral and fortified food consumption of individuals. It addresses the need to improve methods for assessing nutrient intake. Earlier studies suggest that supplementation contributes significantly to the nutrient intake of about 1/3 of the population. The project capitalizes on the unique bar code markings which appear on many vitamin/mineral preparations as well as other more exotic dietary supplements such as bone meal, kelp, etc. Building on the data base developed in Phase I, nutrient information for each item has been converted through use of the computer so that dietary intake information is expressed on the same basis regardless of the manufacturer's labeling information. This Phase II follow-on would test the utility of the data bank through a survey of the use of nutritional supplements using a national probability sample and/or Hispanic HANES nutritional supplement usage data. The commercialization phase (Phase III) will involve marketing the use of the data base to public and private researchers.

该项目的目标是建立一个准确的维生素和 矿物数据库，可以很容易地更新，并作为综合 - 用于监测补充的维生素和/或矿物质的参考，以及 个人强化食品消费。 它解决了以下需要： 改进评估营养摄入方法。 早期的研究表明 补充剂对营养素的摄入有很大的贡献， 约占人口的三分之一。 该项目利用独特的酒吧 出现在许多维生素/矿物质制剂上的代码标记， 其他更奇特的膳食补充剂，如骨粉，海带等。 在第一阶段建立的数据库的基础上， 每一项都是通过计算机进行转换的， 摄入量信息在相同的基础上表示，而不管 制造商的标签信息。 第二阶段的后续工作将测试 通过对营养素使用情况的调查， 补充使用国家概率样本和/或西班牙裔HANES 营养补充剂使用数据。 商业化阶段（第三阶段） 将涉及向公众和私人推销数据库的使用 研究人员
