Nutritional Labeling Services for Food and Supplements 

I use the nutritional labeling program called Genesis, their website, (www.esha.com) describes the program details. Genesis is an industry-standard program that many food companies use to calculate Nutrition Facts Panel (NFP). The program uses food nutrient information generated from the USDA database and from ingredient manufacturers to create a final label. Other programs exist, but many manufacturing companies feel comfortable with Genesis because of its reputation, reliability, and regulation updates.

I generate labels using the updated Nutrition Fact Panel which includes “added sugar”. For more information on that, please review this link:

In order for me to perform nutritional analysis, please provide the following information:

Needed Information 

  • Product formulation (weight in grams and/or percentages)
  • Nutritional information per 100 grams for each ingredient (if available) if not please send a typed copy of what is stated on the panel of ingredients being used. Photocopies of labels not accepted
  • Ingredient statements for complex ingredients used
    • IE- you may use a soy sauce that has soybeans, salt, and wheat in it-I need to know each individual ingredient within that sauce
  • Added sugars within any particular ingredient should be listed and called out by the supplier of that ingredient
  • A List of all the allergens and sensitive ingredients in your product
    • USA allergens include milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts (including coconut), peanuts, wheat and soy
    • Sensitive ingredients including gluten, sesame seeds, and mustard
  • The cooking process must be considered (water lost through baking needs to be considered)
  • Total weight of product before and after cooking (if applicable)
  • Your serving size in grams and a consumer measurable weight
  • Number of serving per package (divide total weight by serving size)
  • The length and width of your product package (for label sizing purposes)
  • Specify if you want the label to be vertical, horizontal, or linear

Database nutritional analysis is only as accurate as the information that is plugged into the program. If you do not submit the correct official documentation directly from the manufacturer, you will jeopardize the accuracy of your label.

A retainer fee of $450 per label is required. I will provide an estimate of total cost once I receive all of the requested details listed above. The total cost may only be $500 however

additional fees may be added to your bill if:

  • Your product is complicated,
  • Your product has complex ingredients
  • If you don’t provide information as requested and I must research it for you
