Acknowledgments: The authors express appreciation
to Sarah L. Booth and James A. Sadowski, USDA Human
Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts University,
and Guylaine Ferland, Department of Nutrition, University
of Montreal, for their contributions of data and their
assistance with the development of this table.

Users of this table should keep in mind that the data are
provisional. Critical review of available data and further
investigation will be necessary before definitive
information can be published. All data were obtained by
high-performance liquid chromatography. Data by
bioassay included in earlier versions of this table were not
used in this revision. The values are expressed as
medians because of the paucity of and large variation in
existing analytical data.

Items which could not be matched with items in the
National Nutrient Data Bank do not have a corresponding
NDB number listed in the table.

Mention of commercial products in this publication is
solely for identification purposes and does not constitute
endorsement by the U.S. Department of Agriculture over
other products not mentioned. Mention of brand names
is necessary to report factually on available data. USDA
neither guarantees nor warrants the standard of the prod-
ucts, and the use of brand names by USDA implies no
approval of the products to the exclusion of others which
may also be suitable.
