				NutriDB, like pretty much every other nutrition calculator in the world, uses data from the <a href="http://www.ars.usda.gov/ba/bhnrc/ndl">U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service</a>.  NutriDB currently uses USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 28.
			</div>

			<div class='standardMargins'>
				NutriDB also calculates the percentage of the <a href="http://fnic.nal.usda.gov/dietary-guidance/dietary-reference-intakes">Dietary Reference Intake</a> (DRI) for nutrients for which a DRI exists. The DRIs have replaced the RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance), for people more familiar with the acronym RDA.
