Nutritional Analysis Service

Nutrition analysis refers to the process of determining the nutritional contents of foods and food products, which can be performed through a variety of certified methods. Food manufacturers should provide the nutrition fact labels for food to market, and the customers can obtain accurate nutrition information to know the food quality and nutritional contents, such as the calories, protein, calcium, vitamin, water and more. To regulate the nutrition fact labels and nutritional analysis, there are various methods for nutritional analysis in accordance to regulations and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) labeling laws.
