Effortless Food Data Import

In the dynamic landscape of nutritional management, precision and speed are paramount. Foodzilla presents a powerful solution that streamlines the process of importing extensive food data via CSV files. This feature not only ensures accuracy but also accelerates your ability to manage diverse nutritional information seamlessly.

Preparing the CSV File: Precision at Every Step

To get started, download our CSV template file, and populate your food data, ensuring adherence to the specified format for optimal results. It's important to note that nutrition information should be based on a 100-gram measurement.

The CSV template provides a structured layout for inputting essential nutritional values, from calories to vitamins, fats, fiber, and more. Numeric values can include decimals or whole numbers, while unknown values can be left empty. The provided table serves as your guide, detailing each field's purpose and the expected format for accurate food importation. While "Name" is obligatory, other fields, such as "Energy_KCAL," "TotalFat," "TotalProtein," and more, grant you the opportunity to present thorough nutritional insights.
