Resolve a food name to a NutrientsDB record and read its nutrient profile

Search the sample by food name, then retrieve the selected food by public_id.

  1. Search the public 1,000-food sample by name fragment.
  2. Retrieve the selected food by its exact public_id. q and id are mutually exclusive, so this step sends only id.
What you'll need to have ready
  • query: Food name fragment, case-insensitive substring match.
  • limit: Maximum search results. Values above 20 are capped at 20.
