Nutritional Information and Resources
Page Content
The Division of Amenities and Transportation Services (DATS) is dedicated to providing all employees and visitors to the NIH with the tools to make informed decisions about their nutritional needs and the dining center offerings available at the NIH.
By following the links on this page you can view the nutritional analysis for many of the items currently being offered at several of the NIH dining centers. We will continue to update this page as additional nutritional analysis are made available.
We have also provided a link to the USDA MyPyramid guide. There are many useful tools, e.g. MyPyramid Menu Planner, on this site which will help you make the right decision(s) for your dietary needs. We hope all patrons will use this informative resource toward persuing healthy eating habits.
Nutritional Labeling
Eurest Dining Services
(Buildings 10-ACRF, 10-CRC, 10-B1, 31, 35, 40, 45)
In January 2011, changes were made in the way the entrees were portioned and priced in the dining centers operated by Eurest Dining Services.
These changes were made to meet the requirements of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, 21 U.S.C. 343(q)(5)(H) implemented in March 2011. Within the Eurest Dining Centers, detailed nutritional information on each item served over 60 times per year is displayed and available for your review.
Some portion sizes have been reduced to USDA recommended sizes to meet the more stringent requirements. In cases where the portion size is reduced, a corresponding lower price will be charged. For those of you wishing to purchase an additional portion, an a la carte price will be available. This information is intended to help you, the customer, make more informed choices when visiting the NIH dining centers.
