USDA Nutrient Database Release 26

The USDA Nutrient database comes in a very odd file format. This project contains a Python script that transforms it into a number of useful file formats. It also includes the results of that transformation, so you don't have to do it yourself.

Formats currently available:

  • CSV (According to Python's idea of "Excel dialect")
  • JSON
  • Python pickle file
  • SQLITE3 database

The original source for the whole thing is:

http://www.ars.usda.gov/Services/docs.htm?docid=8964

Legal bladibla

The data in data/ is a work of the US Government, and hence not covered by copyright. It is readily available from the USDA website, but included here for your convenience.

The code is MIT licensed. If you want any other license, ask me (though I can't see why).
