Answer to Question 1

Use this link: https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/foods

The database can be used to monitor/control the intake of calories, sodium and fat by searching for foods commonly consumed. The database also allows for comparisons between methods of preparation and fresh versus prepared foods. Nutrient content for just about any food can be found in the database.

Answer to Question 2

Use this link: https://ndb.nal.usda.gov/ndb/foods NDB No. 01083

Milk, low-fat, fluid, 1 milkfat, with added nonfat milk solids, vitamin A and vitamin D (1 cup) = 314 mg calcium
NDB No. 01016

Cheese, cottage, low-fat, 1 milkfat (1/2 cup) = 69 mg calcium More calcium in one cup of the milk.
