Summary:Given the complexity of total diet studies, a number of institutions have developed strategies for managing the large amount of data that are produced. In particular, the calculation of dietary intakes for various chemicals and for various population subgroups creates a particular logistical challenge. The automated programs of several institutions for doing such computations are described, including the Dietary Exposure and Evaluation Model (DEEM™ and DEEM-FCID™), the Dietary Modelling of Nutritional Data (DIAMOND) system, the Monte Carlo Risk Assessment (MCRA), and the International Estimated Daily Intake (IEDI).
