Adequate dietary intake assessment is important not only in the study of associations between diet and health-related outcomes, but also for nutritional surveillance and gathering information for evidence-based nutrition policy planning. However, India continues to experience persistent diet data gaps.
Diet data, if compiled systematically and updated periodically, could inform evidence-based policies and programmes. With this objective, the ‘Diet Data’ portal was created on Anuvaad’s website with inspiration from the FAO/GIFT website.
A systematic search of research studies that collected diet data on the Indian population at the subnational level was conducted, and a total of 76 studies were identified. The diet data portal also includes visualisation of the nutrient data collected from these studies for 18 macro- and micronutrients created using the Tableau visualisation tool.
The Diet Data Portal on Anuvaad’s website can be accessed here.
