Proteins not shown
Hi. I am new here, my name is luuk and i am from holland. I have a question regarding the proteins that are shown in the diary. I noticed with certain products that only the overall number is shown but that the breakdown of essential proteins isnt. I have a screenshot of this to clarify this. It shows the protein from Alpro Soya Yoghurt unsweetend. Can anyway tell me why this is because I feel like it is not accurate the way it is now. Thanks and have a wonderfull day, Luuk

You can learn more about how to choose the best data for your needs here: https://cronometer.com/blog/6-tips-getting-nutrition-data/
Products that haven't been analyzed by NCCDB and USDA, have nutrition labels that only include a very basic set of nutrients mandated by law. We are not a lab and do not test foods for their nutrient content, and can only provide the information that is available to us from the manufacturer.
If your priority is to get the most detailed information for a food, I recommend choosing entries from the NCCDB in the Common Foods Tab. By choosing entries in the common foods tab (as described in the above link to Blog post) you can ensure that you are getting accurate information.
