Nutriveda is a reference site about food: what is in it, what the evidence says about it, and how to cook it. It is written in English first, with a Bulgarian sister site at nutriveda.bg.
Who is behind Nutriveda
Nutriveda is written by an editorial team led by Nikola, who holds the Precision Nutrition Level 1 certification. Every entry goes through a source check before it is published. Every number here comes from USDA FoodData Central, every intake reference from EFSA, and every source is linked. None of the team is a medical doctor, and nothing on this site replaces medical advice.
What we publish
- The encyclopedia – one entry per food, diet, vitamin and supplement, with nutrition per 100 g and the sources behind every claim.
- Recipes – mostly Mediterranean, with nutrition per serving calculated from the ingredient weights.
- Guides – longer pieces that connect the entries, starting with the Mediterranean diet for beginners.
How we work
Nutrition values come from USDA FoodData Central, daily reference values from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), and health claims are checked against the EU register of authorised claims. When a source is secondary or not yet checked in the original, we say so. The full method is on Sources and methods; if you are new here, Start here shows how the site fits together.
What we are not
Nutriveda is general information, not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Read the medical disclaimer before you change your diet because of something you read here, and talk to your doctor if you are pregnant, take medication or live with a health condition.
Affiliate links
Some entries about supplements and kitchen equipment contain affiliate links. They are always labelled. If you buy through one, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. It never decides what we write or which product we name.
