Compendium of Alaska Traditional and Subsistence Dietary Files - Highlights

The Compendium of Alaska Traditional and Subsistence Diets is a result of the application of the DRG TM to a real life scenario. The Compendium of Alaska Traditional and Subsistence Diets can be used by those interested in the dietary profiles of Alaska Native populations and can serve as an example for those who are interested in simulating a dietary profile of another unique community.

The Compendium of Alaska Traditional and Subsistence Diets is composed of

• Documentation
   
  • Text document that describes the process of creating the DRG files and contains references.
  • A library of Excel spreadsheets which show the calculation of consumption parameters for foods described by the compendium.
