Fiber and Sodium

[Karla Barmaki]

Hi everyone,

When I am importing recipes using my Premium free account, I get the value for Fiber and Sodium as "0" for all of my recipes. I can only retrieve the basic info (Calories, Carbs, Protein, and Fat).

Is this information not included in the Premium free API access?

Thanks!

Hi Karla,

Thanks for reaching out. There is no difference between Premier, Premier Free or Basic accounts as it pertains to accessing nutritional values.

It could be that the foods you have as part of your recipes do not have fiber or sodium specified.

By way of background, we publish fiber and sodium for all generic and composite generic foods globally - and for branded foods where available

I have checked the recipes that were fetched, and they all contain fiber and sodium...

Thanks Karla.

Here is an example query that would return all properties for all ingredients using recipe.get.v2 (https://platform.fatsecret.com/docs/v2/recipe.get):
