Greetings! I found the above Nutrient Library/Food Source Table extremely useful --- but one item is missing --- for easy use of the table: indication for each Nutrient the quantities of daily consumption suggested -- maybe for adult woman vs. adult man vs. child vs. infant - or maybe by body-weight - noted in the left column, below each nutrient. Then one can print-out the table and has everything in one place for meal-planning.
Thanks for your support-info!
