FSANZ Releases the Latest Nutrient Composition of Australian Foods

Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) has released AUSNUT 2023, the latest and most comprehensive database on the nutrient composition of Australian foods. 

This update provides an essential tool for understanding the nutritional profile of foods consumed in Australia today.

AUSNUT (Australian Food, Supplement and Nutrient Database) is a national database that contains detailed information on the nutrient content of thousands of Australian foods, beverages, and dietary supplements. It includes values for macronutrients, micronutrients, and other dietary components.

What’s New?

  • Updated food composition data that reflects the current Australian food supply.
  • Inclusion of both commonly consumed foods and newer products that reflect changes in the marketplace.
  • Expanded detail to support food regulation, labelling, and compliance work.

  • Benchmark your product’s nutrient profile against similar foods.
