Abstract

The field study was carried out within the Badarkhali union (the Nayakrishi community) and within the Shaplapur union (the Mog (Rakhine) community). This is a living document; nutrient information will be added and/or updated when available. Due to financial constraints, the nutrient analyses of only 30 foods were carried out by the Institute of Nutrition and Food Science laboratory (INFS), University of Dhaka. Other foods items were analyzed by the National Nutrition Program of Bangladesh or obtained from other published data. Details include scientific names of selected foods as well as photographs and nutrient tables.
