CANDAT is a computer software system which works cooperatively with the user to provide nutrient information.
It is a research orientated tool that has features which respect research users' needs. For instance, it is possible to have more than one version of the master food file. A study begun in a previous period can continue to use a previous food file while other studies use a more up-to-date file. Subjects can be entered in multiple subject files and the files merged later, based on subject characteristics, to form an analysis group.
