usda_get_food
shallowio.github.cyanheads/usda-mcp-server · Verify this server
Get the full nutrient profile for one food by FDC ID. Returns all available nutrients (or a filtered subset via the nutrients[] param) with optional per-portion scaling. Use usda_search_foods to discover FDC IDs. Provide quantity + unit to scale all nutrient values from per-100g to the specified portion (e.g. quantity=200, unit="g" → per-200g values). Use unit="serving" to scale to the food's first defined portion weight. Narrow nutrients[] to specific IDs to reduce response size for focused queries.
