Abstract
Nubel (Nutrients of Belgium) is a non-profit organization that manages nutrition related information in Belgium. Nubel consists of both private and public partners. Next to the Board of Directors and the Scientific Council, Nubel has numerous additional members working in the area of nutrition and which are using the Nubel products as basic information for several target groups. Our objective is to develop, update and manage a scientific food composition database of nutrients from all kinds of food products and to distribute the data to potential users. For each nutrient Nubel tracks the origin of the data. This can be an analysis carried out in accredited laboratories, corrected values, calculated values, data from Global Standard 1 Belgilux (GS1), literature, other databases. The branded food products database is an interactive database on the Internet. The pictures, household measures and portions are available in close collaboration with the food industry. In return the food industry receives objective information on nutritional values of our generic foods based on a scientific background that can be used to improve the quality of food products and to label food products. Nubel wishes to inform her users by using the NUBEL Foodplanner about a healthy lifestyle based on a well-balanced nutrition.
