Total Diet Study

Introduction

The Total Diet Study (TDS), sometimes called the market basket study, is
an ongoing FDA program that determines levels of various contaminants
and nutrients in foods. From this information, dietary intakes of those
analytes by the U.S. population can be estimated. Since its inception in
1961 as a program to monitor for radioactive contamination of foods, the
TDS has grown to encompass additional analytes, including pesticide
residues, industrial chemicals, and toxic and nutrient elements. A
unique aspect of the TDS is that foods are prepared as they would be
consumed (table-ready) prior to analysis, so the analytical results
provide the basis for realistic estimates of the dietary intake of these
analytes.

This website provides an overview of FDA's TDS and access to analytical
results (data summaries as well as individual results for each food)
from mid-1991 to the present. (Data prior to this time are not available
in electronic format.) Other information (including the list of TDS
foods, sample collection sites and dates, and the TDS diets used for
calculating dietary intakes) are also provided on this website.

Total Diet Study

  HYPERLINK "http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-toc.html"  Introduction 

Study Design

The TDS involves purchasing samples of food throughout the U.S.,
preparing the foods as they would be consumed (table-ready), and
analyzing the foods to measure the levels of selected contaminants and
nutrients. Dietary intakes of these analytes by the U.S. population are
then calculated by multiplying the levels found in TDS foods by the
average consumption amounts for each food. The overall strategy and
goals of the TDS have remained constant since its inception in 1961, but
the specific methodology has been revised periodically. Exhaustive
histories of the TDS have been published elsewhere (  HYPERLINK
"http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-refs.html"  See the list of
references .). 

The number of different foods sampled in the TDS has increased from 82
food items when the study was initiated in the early 1960s to about 280
foods in the current program. The list of TDS foods is updated from time
to time to reflect changing eating patterns in the U.S. The information
reported on this website reflects two versions of the TDS foods list.
The first was compiled in 1990 and altered slightly in 1991 when
additional infant and toddler foods were added to provide more
information on levels of pesticides and lead in the diets of young
children. The second version was implemented in 2003. (See the
comprehensive table of both the   HYPERLINK
"http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-food.html"  1990/91 and 2003 food
lists .) Foods lists prior to 1990 have been published elsewhere ( 
HYPERLINK "http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-refs.html"  reference list
).

Besides changes in the number and types of foods purchased in the TDS,
the way in which the foods are analyzed has also changed over time. In
some of the earlier studies, similar foods were combined before analysis
to form composites representing major commodity groups (e.g., dairy,
meat, grains). Beginning in the early 1980s, TDS foods were analyzed
individually; this approach is still used in the TDS today.

Sample collections (also referred to as   HYPERLINK
"http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-mbs.html"  market baskets ) are
generally conducted four times each year, once in each of four
geographic regions of the country (West, North Central, South, and
Northeast). Food samples are purchased by FDA personnel from
supermarkets, grocery stores and fast food restaurants in three cities
in the region and are shipped to a central FDA laboratory. The foods are
then prepared table-ready and the three samples are combined to form a
single analytical composite for each TDS food.   HYPERLINK
"http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-ana.html"  Current TDS analytes 
include pesticide resides, industrial chemicals, radionuclides, toxic
and nutrient elements, and folate. 

Numerous units within FDA participate in the operation of TDS. The
Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, College Park, MD, provides
overall management of the program and summarizes the laboratory results.
FDA District Offices from across the U.S., within the Office of Regional
Operations, collect the foods and ship them to the Kansas City District
Laboratory, Lenexa, KS, where the foods are prepared and analyzed for
pesticide residues and elements. Portions of the composites are sent to
FDA's Winchester Engineering and Analytical Center, Winchester, MA, for
radionuclide analyses and to FDA's Atlanta Center for Nutrient Analyses,
Atlanta, GA, for folate analysis.

TDS Food List and Consumption Amounts (TDS Diets)

TDS Food List

The foods collected in the TDS (referred to as the TDS food list)
represent the major components of the diet of the U.S. population. The
food list is based on results of national food consumption surveys and
is updated from time to time to reflect changes in food consumption
patterns. Currently, there are about 280 foods collected and analyzed in
the TDS.

The TDS analytical results reported on this website (from 1991 to the
present) reflect two versions of the food list; the first was compiled
in 1990 and the second in 2003. The 1990 version was based on the USDA
1987-88 Nationwide Food Consumption Survey (NFCS) (USDA 1990, Pennington
1992). The 2003 version is based on USDA’s 1994-96, 1998 Continuing
Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals (CSFII) (USDA 2000). See the  
HYPERLINK "http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-food.html"  comprehensive
list of TDS foods .

TDS Consumption Amounts (TDS Diets)

Dietary exposure to TDS analytes can be estimated by multiplying the
levels of the analytes found by the average amount consumed for each
food TDS food. The food consumption amounts for each TDS food are
compiled for the total US population and 14 age/sex subgroups listed
below; these are collectively referred to as the TDS diets. 

M/F 6-11 mos

M/F 2 yrs

M/F 6 yrs

M/F 10 yrs 	F 14-16 yrs

M 14-16 yrs

F 25-30 yrs

M 25-30 yrs	F 40-45 yrs

M 40-45 yrs

F 60-65 yrs

M 60-65 yrs	F 70+ yrs

M 70+ yrs

The TDS food lists and diets are also compiled from national consumption
survey data through a process of aggregating survey foods and
consumption amounts. During the food consumption surveys, detailed
information is collected on the types and amounts of food consumed by
each survey participant. Over 5,000 different foods were reported in
each of the USDA surveys that were used for compiling the 1990/91 and
2003 food lists and diets. Although there are many fewer TDS foods (~
280) than survey foods (> 5,000), the goal of the TDS diets is to
account for total food consumption. To accomplish this, the survey foods
were grouped (or aggregated) according to their similarity to TDS foods
and a “mapping” file was created in which each survey food is
assigned to one of the TDS food. 

After the mapping is completed, average per-capita (eater and
non-eaters) daily consumption amounts were calculated for each survey
food and population group. Finally, the consumption amounts of all
survey foods assigned to a TDS food were subtotaled to derive the TDS
diet consumption amount for that food. The TDS diets assume that the
analytical profile of the survey foods would be similar to that of the
TDS foods to which they are assigned, and that the TDS diets could
provide an estimate of total dietary exposure to the analytes from all
foods in the diet – not from the TDS foods alone. 

Three versions of the TDS diets, which can be used with the analytical
results to calculate dietary intake of the TDS analytes, are available
on this website. Each file is a self-extracting compressed (zipped),
tab-delimited text file* that can be downloaded, decompressed
(double-click the file or use a program like Stuffit Expander), and
imported by database or spreadsheet software. For best viewing and data
manipulation, the text files should be saved and then opened from a
database or spreadsheet program such as Microsoft Excel, Corel
QuattroPro or Lottus 1-2-3.:

Analytical Results

Most TDS foods (except for some infant/toddler foods) are analyzed for
all   HYPERLINK "http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-ana.html"  elemental
analytes  (other than mercury) and radionuclides. For other analytes
(pesticides, industrial chemicals, and mercury) selected foods are
analyzed. Refer to the   HYPERLINK
"http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-food.html"  food/analyte matrix  to
determine which TDS foods are analyzed for each analyte group.

TDS foods are analyzed for elements, pesticides and industrial chemicals
in each market basket (MB); radionuclides are measured in only one MB
each year. Each MB is designated by the fiscal year and the specific
collection (1 through 4) for that year (e.g., MB 92-2 is the second
market basket in 1992).

TDS results from MB 91-3 to the present are reported below in two
formats:

summaries of all results from MB 91-3 to the present 

individual results for each market basket (MB) 

Notes on TDS analytical results:

An FDA evaluation has determined that the TDS method used in the Kansas
City District Office laboratory to measure benzene produces unreliable
results for benzene in some foods. Based on this evaluation, FDA
scientists recommend that benzene data be viewed with great caution,
while FDA considers removing these data from the TDS website. There is
no evidence of problems with other TDS data. See   HYPERLINK
"http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/benzqa.html" \l "q8"  Questions and
Answers on the Occurrence of Benzene in Soft Drinks and Other Beverages 
for more information. 

Data prior to MB 91-3 are not available in electronic format, but have
been published in numerous reports in the scientific literature; see the
  HYPERLINK "http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~comm/tds-refs.html"  references 
associated with TDS history.

Individual Results (since 1991)

The following files include the individual analytical results associated
with each TDS market basket (MB) conducted since mid-1991. The files are
designated by the MB number (e.g., 92-2), indicating the fiscal year and
the specific collection (1 through 4) for that year.

For each MB, separate files have been created for elements,
radionuclides, and pesticides and industrial chemicals. A description of
the file structure for each group of analytes is provided below; please
review the file structures carefully before using the data files. Note
that all laboratory results (analyses of original samples as well as
those done for quality control) are reported for each MB. For element
analyses, original and quality control results are reported in separate
files.

The revision histories are also provided as separate files for elements
and radionuclides, indicating if and when the files were revised after
the original posting on the website and the nature of the revisions.
Dates for revisions to the pesticide/industrial chemical files are noted
in the table below.

Each file is a compressed, tab-delimited text file that can be
downloaded, decompressed (double-click the file or use Stuffit
Expander), and imported by database or spreadsheet software. Download
each file separately if you are interested in results from specific
market baskets. If you are interested in data from all market baskets,
the last file in each table will automatically decompress all the files.
