How to read the columns
Nutrients. Amounts are USDA FoodData Central per 100 g on the cited row (about 100 ml for these beverages). Calcium and vitamin D often reflect fortified retail drinks.
Base filters. Nut, grain, legume, seed, and coconut follow the ingredient family named on the card, not a health score.
Water. Liters per kilogram from Mekonnen and Hoekstra (2011) Table 3 global averages (1996-2005). Soy drink uses the Table 3 soy drink product row; other drinks use the named primary crop row.
Sources
Numbers on this page come from these published datasets only.
- Nutrients. USDA FoodData Central, per 100 g on the FDC id on each card. FDC ids and skipped bases: DATA-CITATIONS.md and plant-drinks.json.
- Water. Mekonnen and Hoekstra (2011) Table 3 global averages (1996-2005), via HESS 15, 1577-1603.
- Branded rows. When Foundation or SR Legacy lack an unsweetened drink, cards cite a USDA Branded Food row labeled unsweetened. Per 100 g values for those rows come from the labeled cup on FDC.
Common questions
What plant drinks will and will not say
Does this page pick the healthiest drink?
No. It lists published nutrient and water figures. Fortified vitamins on the USDA row are not a recommendation to buy one brand.
Why are some bases missing?
This starter set adds a card only when FoodData Central has an unsweetened commercial-style row we can cite. Skipped bases and FDC ids are documented in DATA-CITATIONS.md.
Where do the numbers come from?
Nutrients are USDA FoodData Central per 100 g on the FDC id shown on each card. Water footprints are Table 3 global averages. Missing numbers stay blank.
